Jon Gregory is the founder and CEO of Vitruvian, a resistance training technology company. Jon has a background in applied physics but worked for years in finance and as a high frequency trader, ultimately starting his own firm. The lo-tech weight room just beyond the trading floor sparked the idea for Vitruvian. Jon figured he could make resistance training a lot more sophisticated using technology and thus the tinkering began, and eventually Vitruvian was born.•This episode of The Ready State Podcast is brought to you by LMNT, a tasty electrolyte drink mix with everything you need and nothing you don't.

Editor - Mikkel E.G. Nielsen, ACE THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN editor Mikkel E.G. Nielsen, ACE makes his return to The Rough Cut, having previously appeared on the show to talk about the film that would land him an Oscar® for Best Film Editing, SOUND OF METAL (2020). In addition to the delicate challenge of filling the void left by the passing of editor Jon Gregory, director Martin McDonagh's frequent collaborator in the cutting room, Mikkel was also tasked with a crafting a film that walked a fine line between comedy and drama in a way that only an Irish film could. THE BANSHEES OF INISHERIN takes place in 1923, on the small fictional Irish isle of Inisherin during the Irish Civil War. Folk musician Colm Doherty abruptly begins ignoring his long-time friend and drinking buddy Pádraic Súilleabháin. Pádraic, though nice and well liked by the islanders, is too dull for Colm who wishes to spend the remainder of his life composing music and doing things that he will be remembered for. Pádraic's life is destabilized by the loss of one of his few friends; as Pádraic grows increasingly distressed at the rejection, Colm becomes more resistant to his old friend's attempts to speak to him. Colm eventually gives Pádraic an ultimatum: every time he bothers him or tries to talk with him, he will cut off one of his own left fingers with a pair of sheep shears.

Jon Gregory started his career as a finance guy, working around the clock on algorithmic trading and high-frequency computing and squeezing in workouts in the company training room, which consisted of a bunch of metal weights. Surely, we can do something better, Jon thought. Using his degree in applied physics, Jon dedicated himself to making training more effective, efficient, engaging, and beneficial by transforming the traditional gym using 21st-century technology. And, just like that, Jon exchanged the trading floor for the weight room and created Vitruvian, one of the fastest growing connected fitness brands in the world, on a mission to disrupt human health and wellness. Delivering up to 440 lbs. of digital weight, the Vitruvian Trainer+ uses artificial intelligence to adjust its weight to individual users in real-time, loading and unloading the optimal resistance up to 50 times per second, all in a slim carbon fiber platform that can easily slide under a couch or bed. Jon joins me on Tech Talks Daily to share his startup story while also discussing entrepreneurship, technology, and how Vitruvian is revolutionizing the in-home gym and the future of the fitness industry.
Today I'm joined by Jon Gregory, Founder and CEO of Vitruvian, a connected strength company.

When paired with the Vitruvian app the experience offers access to world-class fitness coaches, 200+ exercises, goal-oriented programs, and full workout data, all in a compact machine that slides under a bed or couch when not in use. In this episode Jon explains how his background in physics, and experience as a high-frequency trader let him start the company. We discuss Jon's vision to build a fitness technology platform that transforms resistance training, and we talk about the economic and operational challenges facing the industry.

Danelle and Brodie talk with Jon Gregory, founder and CEO of Vitruvian, a global personal fitness device and platform operating from its head offices in West Perth. A decade ago, the former investment trader realised that while the algorithms he was using were very fast and efficient, weight-training seemed to be about “pushing weights”. In 2019, he took some investment from a local angel investor, matched it with his own funding, and has since raised millions of dollars, and sells his machines around the world. “I asked him ‘How do you make money? How do you do it?' he said ‘Jon, you put yourself in a position to make money'. And I was like ‘That's either the most profound thing I've ever heard or the dumbest thing …” ~ Jon Gregory.

In episode 53 of The C-Word we chat with Jon Gregory, a high-frequency trader, physicist and father of three from Perth, WA. An expert who writes algorithms for financial markets, in his downtime Jon would train weights. While doing so, he developed an algorithm on weight training which has led to the creation of the ultimate smart device Vitruvian Form. He's already got faces like our girl and previous guest Amanda Bisk behind it and he's definitely caught our interest and attention with this game changing piece of equipment after hearing him speak on another podcast. This episode is sponsored by Anarchy Training Centre.
Jon Gregory is a high-frequency trader, physicist and father of three from Perth, West Australia. Jon is an expert who writes algorithms for financial markets. In his downtime he trained weights. While doing so, he developed an algorithm on weight training which has led to the creation of the ultimate smart exercise device, the V FORM Trainer from Vitruvian FORM.In this episode of the Human Potential Podcast Jon Gregory talks with our host, Oliver Freer, about how Jon came up with the idea for Vitruvian FORM; the technology behind it and what it does; the challenges of developing and creating a physical product and the importance of resistance training, particularly for the over 35’s to reverse aging-induced loss of muscle mass and to prevent injuries.More about Jon Gregory and Vitruvian FORM Jon decided to get into the fitness space because he saw an opportunity to combine hardware and elements of the software that he had spent years developing in his role in the financial markets developing specialised algorithms. Jon has used his unique skill set to solve problems and create a solution that is more effective and so less time consuming for busy people.The V FORM Trainer works with an algorithm that knows your strength and automatically adapts to it. This way it challenges you to always do your best and makes you work harder and more efficient while working out for a shorter term.Jon has overcome challenges to get his product to where it is today. Jon tells the story of one of his first demonstrations that did not go quite as planned. Now, having overcome early stage production challenges, the next phase is to launch Vitruvian FORM internationally.*Vitruvian means “perfect form”https://vitruvian.meJon Gregory’s book recommendationsThe BibleAnna Karenina by Leo Tolstoy
