In this episode, Doug Larson, Dr. Mike Lane, and Coach Travis Mash sit down with Dr. Andrew Jagim, Director of Sports Medicine Research for the Mayo Clinic Health System, to talk about what actually works for building stronger, more resilient young athletes. Andrew shares how his applied research feeds directly back into real-world coaching, especially for under-resourced D3 athletes, and why the best youth training is simple, fast, and consistent. The group also trades notes on training their own kids: short sessions, minimal setup, and keeping things engaging so the habit sticks for life. They break down practical youth strength programming: unilateral work for stability (step-ups, lunges), basic patterns (kettlebell deadlifts, goblet squats, push-ups), and building hips/glutes to protect knees, especially for tall, fast-growing athletes where coordination and lever changes force constant "auto-regulation." A major theme is injury prevention without turning training into a grind: 15–25 minute workouts, circuits/supersets, park workouts with med balls and kettlebells, and even sneaky "commercial break" core work to keep kids moving while still letting them be kids. The conversation shifts into sports nutrition, body composition, and a more athlete-friendly way to talk about physique, Fat-Free Mass Index (FFMI). Andrew explains how FFMI is calculated, what typical ranges look like for male and female athletes, and why it can be a more positive metric than body fat percentage, especially for female athletes where messaging can backfire. They close with a nuanced look at weight cutting in wrestling and combat sports: why massive cuts are physiologically brutal, how rules differ inside vs. outside the U.S., and why frequent dehydration (like in-season scholastic wrestling) is a completely different risk profile than occasional cuts with longer recovery windows.

Welcome to the WHOOP Research Series, where we breakdown into the extensive, scientific research conducted by the WHOOP Performance Science team. On this week's episode, WHOOP Global Head of Human Performance, Principal Scientist, Dr. Kristen Holmes sits down with WHOOP Senior Research Scientist Dr. Greg Grosicki to unpack the latest WHOOP Research Study on Heart Rate Variability Coefficient of Variation or HRV-CV. Using data from 21,000+ WHOOP members and 2 million nights of sleep, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Grosicki reveal why day-to-day stability in your HRV may matter more than the number itself. HRV-CV proves to outperform traditional metrics in detecting the real impact of alcohol, sleep consistency, and metabolic health, making it a great measure of healthspan. By looking deeper into the study, Dr. Holmes and Dr. Grosicki explains how HRV-CV can help you program your training smarter, improve your healthspan and build autonomic resilience. This episode unpacks how measuring HRV-CV isn't just about performance, but risk stratification and understanding your physiology over-time, not just day-to-day.

Most practices have plenty of numbers but still feel unclear about what to work on next. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt talks with Miranda Beason about why many dental practices don't have a data problem — they have a focus problem — and how to use quarterly priorities and the right metrics to create alignment, reduce chaos, and make steady progress toward annual goals. To learn how to set focus, choose what to measure, and lead your team with calmer, clearer direction, listen to Episode 1012 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysMore data does not create clarity unless the practice has clear priorities and a defined direction.Annual planning works best when it's translated into quarterly priorities that connect to day-to-day execution.When focus is missing, leadership often reacts to what feels urgent or “loud” instead of following a strategy.Practices build momentum when they choose two to four priorities for a 12-week quarter and measure progress consistently.Tracking fewer, quarter-specific metrics is more effective than maintaining a constant list of 30–40 KPIs.Weekly reporting improves a team's ability to make timely changes compared to waiting until the end of the month.Metrics gain traction when leaders clearly communicate the purpose, the team's role, and how the focus supports the patient experience.Snippets00:00 Metric Monday Kickoff: Data Doesn't Fix Everything01:57 Meet Miranda: Most Practices Have a Focus Problem02:40 Why Data Creates Alignment (and Removes Emotion)04:52 When You Get It Wrong: Chaos, Fires, and Moving Targets08:11 Real-World ‘Loud' Moments: Snow Days, Short Months & Panic09:44 When You Get It Right: Annual Goals → Quarterly Priorities13:06 Leading vs. Lagging Indicators: Staying Calm Under Pressure14:27 What You Can Do Today: Pick a Focus + Track the Right KPIs16:28 Report Weekly, Celebrate Wins, and Tie Metrics to Patient Experience17:47 Wrap-Up: Get Help, Stay Focused, and Build a Better PracticeGuest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience.

Many dental practices feel surprised by their numbers at the end of the month, even when they review reports regularly. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt sits down with Miranda Beeson, leadership coach at ACT Dental, to explain the difference between leading and lagging indicators and why relying too heavily on historical data creates stress, reactivity, and missed opportunities. They break down how leading indicators connect daily behaviors to long-term results, how to spot problems earlier, and how to use data to lead calmly instead of reactively. If you want to understand which numbers actually help you influence outcomes before it's too late, listen to Episode 1009 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysLagging indicators show what has already happened in a practice and cannot be changed once reported.Leading indicators help predict future outcomes and guide daily and weekly behavior.Practices that focus only on lagging indicators often feel blindsided and become reactive under pressure.Tracking leading indicators weekly allows leaders to correct course before the end of the month.Hygiene reappointment, diagnostic percentage, and case acceptance are examples of leading indicators that influence production.Teams engage more effectively when they understand which daily actions influence practice results.Snippets00:52 Leading indicators versus lagging indicators and why both matter.02:28 Why lagging indicators create reactive leadership and team stress.03:50 Using hygiene metrics to predict future production.06:11 Planning ahead for known schedule disruptions like holidays.07:38 What it looks like when practices rely only on lagging indicators.09:42 How leadership changes when leading indicators are used correctly.11:39 Tracking diagnostic percentage and case acceptance week over week.14:47 A simple first step to start using leading indicators today.Guest Bio/Guest ResourcesMiranda Beeson has over 25 years of clinical dental hygiene, front office, practice administration, and speaking experience.

Did you know there is a metric influencing your sales right now that you're probably not tracking, reviewing, or even thinking about? The even crazier part is that ignoring it is actually costing you sales, momentum, and confidence. It's not conversion rates, lead volume, or revenue per offer. Today, we're talking about a metric almost no one is measuring, especially high-achieving business owners.
You're tracking applications. You're counting months. But what if the metrics everyone tells you to measure are actually making your job search harder and there's one crucial metric you're completely ignoring?In this video, I reveal why the numbers you're obsessing over might be sabotaging your results, and expose the counterintuitive metric that changed everything once I started paying attention to it. You'll discover what successful people are doing (whether they realize it or not), the paradox I struggled with for years, and why I landed job offers even when I had "absolutely no flipping idea" what the company did.Learn the skill above all others that will create results for you, how to know if you're taking aligned vs. misaligned action, and why your anxiety in the job search will follow you into the role unless you fix this now. If you're putting in massive effort but not seeing the outcomes you want, this is the missing piece.Watch the free 90-minute training that will shift how you feel about what's possible: https://www.asknataliefisher.com/why-you-re-not-landing-job-offersGet full show notes and more information here: https://www.asknataliefisher.com/episode-268
In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I examine why incremental growth matters more than sheer cloud size.Highlights00:02 — Made big changes atop the Cloud Wars Top 10 here at the beginning of 2026. Driven by trends in the financial results that the three biggest hyperscalers: Microsoft, Google Cloud, and AWS are reporting. There are changes taking place at the top among those companies, in terms of customer demand and the choices customers are making going forward into the AI Economy.00:48 — My big point here is that there is a metric, key growth metric, and in Q4 for the first time that I can recall, this key metric, both Google Cloud and AWS beat Microsoft in this. This hasn't happened that I can recall. The key here isn't so much about mass accumulated over the years, but about the growth and who customers are spending their money with now.01:42 — Microsoft Cloud revenue of $51.5 billion, up 26%. AWS, $35.6 billion up 24%. Google Cloud, $17.7 billion up a whopping 48%. Now look at the incremental Q4 over Q3 momentum. AWS up $2.6 billion. Google Cloud up $2.5 billion. Microsoft up $2.4 billion.03:13 — Google Cloud actually brought in more incremental revenue in Q4 versus Q3 and this is the first time I believe this has ever happened. Google Cloud's now has $70 billion on an annualized basis, not a little company by any means. In Q4 it grew 48% and it took more new business Q4 versus Q3 than Microsoft did.04:56 — Google Cloud almost matched what AWS did in incremental growth for Q4, and it beat Microsoft. That validates the position I took when I moved Google Cloud to number one on the Cloud Wars Top 10. These numbers reflect what customers are doing, where they're spending their money, who they're choosing, and who they're going with. Visit Cloud Wars for more.
Many dental leaders make decisions based on how the day feels instead of what the data shows. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt is joined by Miranda Beeson, ACT Dental coach and leadership advisor, to explain why leading from emotion creates reactive leadership and how metrics create clarity, consistency, and confidence for teams.

LinkedIn can feel pretty soulless right now, with endless AI-generated posts and very little that actually sticks. In this bonus episode, I chat with Cherie Clonan, founder and CEO of digital agency The Digital Picnic, about a different way to think about content that doesn’t chase reach or virality. We unpack her idea of return on intimacy, how she designs LinkedIn content across the funnel, why depth and resonance matter more than volume, and how she uses AI for idea generation and hooks without losing her human voice. By the end of this episode, you’ll have a simple lens to use the next time you’re wondering what to post and why. Cherie and I discuss: What return on intimacy really means and why it changes how you create content How top, middle, and bottom of funnel content works on LinkedIn Why being someone’s saved post or screenshot matters more than impressions How to measure sentiment and depth when performance metrics fall short Using AI for idea generation and hooks without sounding generic or soulless Key quotes “Return on intimacy is what I crave, not return on investment.” “Don’t ask how many people might see it. Ask whether someone would screenshot it.” Connect with Cherie Clonan on Instagram and LinkedIn and check out The Digital Picnic. My latest book The Health Habit is out now.

Inside Carolina's senior reporter Greg Barnes joins Tommy Ashley to discuss the aftermath of North Carolina's near collapse against Syracuse and how the Tar Heels face a 'metrics problem' heading into the first Duke game of the season. As Barnes discusses, Carolina's ultimate ranking for seeding purposes in the NCAA Tournament will come from the metrics, not the AP poll, and in losing a 32 point lead in the last ten minutes on Monday, Hubert Davis's team missed a chance to 'out-perform' the numbers. With Duke coming to two on Saturday night, a win becomes all the more important, not for just the fanbase, but for postseason positioning.

Marketing costs can easily drift without clear benchmarks, clear goals, or reliable data. In this episode, Kirk Behrendt continues the Metric Monday series with practice coach Ariel Siegel to break down marketing percentage as part of overall overhead. They explain what marketing percentage actually measures, why the benchmark matters, how internal and external marketing must align, and how to evaluate return on investment using real practice data. If you want to understand how much you should be spending on marketing and how to know whether it's working, listen to Episode 1003 of The Best Practices Show!Main TakeawaysMarketing percentage measures the total percentage of revenue spent on both internal and external marketing efforts.The general benchmark for marketing spend is around 3%, depending on whether a practice is in growth or maintenance mode.Effective marketing fuels new patient growth while also strengthening the practice brand.Internal marketing systems and patient experience must align with external marketing efforts.Tracking return on investment requires comparing marketing spend to new patient numbers and resulting production.High marketing spend without strong systems can result in poor conversions and wasted dollars.Snippets00:56 What marketing percentage measures01:44 The 3% benchmark and why it varies03:07 How marketing impacts new patient growth and branding04:22 Why more new patients is not always better06:52 Using ROI to evaluate marketing effectiveness08:12 How to respond when marketing percentage is too high10:03 Using call and conversion data to diagnose marketing performance11:34 Final Thoughts on Marketing StrategiesGuest Bio/Guest ResourcesAriel has a master's in healthcare administration and several years of dental experience in all aspects of the administrative roles within the dental office.

Third-party sites capture traffic by explaining what brands actually do. John Vantine, Director of SEO at GoodRx, has built cross-functional generative search frameworks over seven years that power discovery across Google and ChatGPT.

If you're still guessing how marketing is really performing, this episode will flip the switch. Spencer breaks down why Sales Qualified Leads (SQLs) are the most important metric you can track and the best leading indicator of future revenue. You'll learn how to clearly define an SQL, why it matters more than raw lead volume, and how tight communication between sales and marketing turns SQLs into better forecasting, smarter ad spend, and higher close rates. If you want fewer “junk leads” and more projects that actually fit your business, this is a must-listen.

In this episode of The Milk Road Show, we sit down with Nick Forster, founder of one of the largest onchain options desks, to unpack the one metric serious investors are watching to understand where crypto is headed next. While most traders obsess over charts, narratives, and short-term price action, options markets are pricing something very different and far more informative.~~~~~
In this episode, I sit down to talk about how retailers can take advantage of the current "attention world" we live in. I start by discussing the metrics that actually matter for retail, criticizing the industry's addiction to "silly reports" and subjective opinions, like brand lift studies. I argue that we are now in an era of Relevance Warfare and introduce the single most important metric for every retailer: Views Achieved. I dive deep into why your best organic creative is the key to winning with paid media and share my strong conviction that live social shopping, with platforms like Whatnot and TikTok Shop - is a colossal opportunity that too many are ignoring.You'll learn about:The biggest mistake Fortune 500 companies made in the last 20 years.Why brand loyalty is about to become more important than ever with AI.Why you need to shift your mindset from "Social Media" to "Interest Media".How to use your top-performing organic content for "Performance Selling".The profound, often underestimated, value of being on LinkedIn.My thoughts on AI influencers and how they will affect the market.

What really matters for markets in 2026—and why are most forecasts focused on the wrong metrics? Lance Roberts visits with Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA, to examine the structural changes inside today's markets that are reshaping price discovery, volatility, and risk. From the rise of passive investing and ETF dominance to the growing disconnect between fundamentals and flows, the mechanics of how markets trade have changed dramatically. We explore why small-cap and mid-cap stocks remain the most economically sensitive indicators, how ETFs can pull sellers higher during inflows—and why that dynamic reverses dangerously during outflows. We also examine declining market elasticity, the limitations of the Efficient Market Hypothesis, and why traditional analysis is increasingly ignored. Beyond markets, we connect these shifts to investor behavior, financial nihilism, generational risk-taking, and the unintended consequences of policy intervention. From the "Bank of Dad" to systemic fund imbalances, this discussion reframes what a useful market outlook should actually focus on heading into 2026. This is not a prediction. It is a framework for understanding risk, structure, and consequences. 0:00 INTRO 2:02 - Outlook for 2026 - What's the important metric? 6:22- Small-cap, Mid-cap stocks are most economically sensitive 8:32 - The importance of Understanding What You Own 11:09 - The Issue of ETF's - Dragging the Sellers higher 13:13 - The Theory of Passive Investing 15:16 - The Composition of Trading has Changed 17:52 - How to correct an over valued stock 19:25 - The Problem with Passive Investing - what happens when investors start selling indexed ETF's (the Bigger the Company, the LESS Elastic the Demand Response) 23:55 - The Efficient market Hypothesis 25:32 - What Makes for a Useful Market Forecast - The market Can't Crash?? 27:14 - Systemic Issues within the Market 31:14 - What Would Michael Green Do? 33:18 - The Death of Analysis & Fund Imbalances 37:13 - The Next Generation of Investors and Risk-taking 39:17 - The Poverty Line & Young Investors 43:34 - When the Government Gets Involved 46:04 - Making Choices - Luxuries vs Necessities 49:18 - Financial Education, Financial Stability, & Financial Choices: Financial Nihilism 53:16 - The Bank of Dad & Soft Society 1:00:58 - Actions Have Consequences 1:05:30 - How to Reach Michael Green 1:06:33 - The Problem with The Problem Hosted by RIA Advisors Chief Investment Strategist, Lance Roberts, CIO, w Simplify Portfolio Manager & Chief Investment Strategist, Michael Green, CFA Produced by Brent Clanton, Executive Producer ------- You can read Michael Green's blog, "Yes...I Give a Fig," here: https://www.yesigiveafig.com/ ------- Watch Today's Full Video on our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 ------- Watch our previous show, "Social Security Reform: Expansion or Cuts?" here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQSiR6fxLGg&list=PLVT8LcWPeAuhi47sn298HrsWYwmg8MV7d&index=1 -------- The latest installment of our new feature, Before the Bell, "Market Rotation Is Broadening — But Risks Remain," is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KS2mSWm16qg&list=PLwNgo56zE4RAbkqxgdj-8GOvjZTp9_Zlz&index=1 ------- Get more info & commentary: https://realinvestm entadvice.com/newsletter/ -------- SUBSCRIBE to The Real Investment Show here: http://www.youtube.com/c/TheRealInvestmentShow -------- Visit our Site: https://www.realinvestmentadvice.com Contact Us: 1-855-RIA-PLAN -------- Subscribe to SimpleVisor: https://www.simplevisor.com/register-new -------- Connect with us on social: https://twitter.com/RealInvAdvice https://twitter.com/LanceRoberts https://www.facebook.com/RealInvestmentAdvice/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/realinvestmentadvice/ #MarketOutlook2026 #PassiveInvesting #ETFMarketStructure #FinancialNihilism #MarketRisk #MichaelGreen

Art Marketing Podcast: How to Sell Art Online and Generate Consistent Monthly Sales
INTRO It's January. Everyone's planning. But most artists are tracking the wrong numbers—followers, likes, email subscribers, website traffic. In this episode, we cut through the noise and focus on the ONE metric that actually predicts everything else in your art business: new customers acquired per year. We'll cover: Why this single number matters more than anything else The "lineup problem" that keeps most artists stuck at 7-8 customers per year The 10x challenge: compete against your 2025 self, not other artists The compounding math that turns 70 customers into 1,500+ over 10 years Why "tending the garden" is the marketing shift you need to make A copy-paste AI prompt to build your entire 2026 plan in minutes THE PROMPT Copy and paste this into Art Helper, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, or Grok: I'm an artist planning my 2026 business growth.

At the end of 2025, I shared two podcast episodes breaking down my best and worst Instagram content from the year. And when I teased those episodes on Instagram, I got a lot of questions about how I actually decide what makes a post “good” or “bad.”The obvious answer is data. I look at analytics, engagement, and performance. But the deeper answer (and the one that's mattered way more for the long-term growth of my business) is that there's a metric I care about even more than what Instagram shows me.For years, I've relied on what I call my ground beef metric to gauge whether my content is actually doing what it's supposed to do: building connection, trust, and relationships that eventually lead to inquiries and bookings.In this episode, I'm breaking down what my ground beef metric is, why vanity metrics don't tell the full story, and how to tell if your Instagram content is actually working, even when the numbers feel confusing or discouraging.We're talking:Why Instagram metrics matter (but shouldn't control your emotions)The real reason posts sometimes don't perform, even when they're goodWhat the ground beef metric is and how to use it to gauge audience connectionWhy Instagram Stories play such a big role in building trustHow connection compounds over time into inquiries and bookingsWhat to focus on if you want Instagram to feel easier and more fun againIf you've ever felt frustrated looking at your Instagram analytics, questioned whether your content is “working,” or wondered why posting feels so emotional sometimes, this episode will give you a totally different way to measure success.Links & Resources

Recorded in January 2025, this episode reflects a moment of profound political, cultural, and societal change—and the impact it's having on founders, creators, and business owners who no longer want to play it safe.
