Scott helps Amazon and e-commerce entrepreneurs unlock growth and profitability bottlenecks in their businesses, and then exit for a top valuation. Scott, welcome to the show.Scott 00:00:15 Hey Josh Scott. Great to be here and I'm really looking forward to it.Josh 00:00:18 Scott, maybe we can dive a little bit deeper into that case study. At the beginning, you talked about, you know, that they were you identified that they were a good platform, right? So that they could continue to grow. What does that platform mean?Scott 00:00:31 Yeah. So the pillars of a great platform, the way that I think about it, my mentor, and has done over $20 billion of transactions. So, you know, you know, old school 30, 40 years in the investment banking world. And he his number one thing that he said to me was, Scott, it's not what the seller is selling, it's what the buyer is buying. So I would encourage everybody to not think about what you think is valuable in a business, but think about what buyers value in a business? The first thing that buyers value is not growth, but it's risk diversification.Scott 00:01:07 So the first thing that you need to think about is that you need to be compliance as a part of risk diversification, but also true diversification of your products so that no one product has, you know, more than, you know, 20% of your revenue. Otherwise, Amazon shuts it down or new competition comes in. A buyer can't get comfortable with that risk profile. So, so the first thing I would say is you analyze your risk. The second pillar of valuation is your profitability percentage. And so a lot of people think that if they have more profitability, that they're more valuable than if they have smaller profits. And while that is one of the pillars, a company that has 25 or 30% profit margins is just much more flexible and therefore valuable than a company that's 10 or 15%. So the second thing that we saw in this company was that they had a. Ability to have profitable products. And then we went to growth percentage, which is the third pillar. And I would if you wanted to benchmark a minimum growth percentages 20% per year.Scott 00:02:19 Now with Covid and Covid bumps, you might not all be there. but remember, you're not selling what you've done. You're selling what the business can do with the buyers capital infusion. And their definition is that minimum 20%, ideally 30% year over year growth is required. Well, if you think about what that capability really is, what we saw in this platform was a capability to successfully innovate and launch new products into the marketplace, because once a product gets up to a certain level, it kind of is what it is. So for people that are looking at action items that they can have today, it's that ability to have a successful launch model to drive the growth rate to that particular output. And then the fourth one becomes the size of the earnings. If you can prove that you can do it over a longer period of time, then you become more valuable because 30% growth on a company with a million of revenues is a lot different than somebody with 10 million of revenue. and so I think it's just important to think along building in and that's where that capital need comes in.Scott 00:03:25 Yeah. Because, you know, in this situation, back to this case study we saw in them even what they didn't see. We saw the platform, but they were think of it as borrowing money from uncle Bob. And if you go by, borrow 50 grand from your uncle, that's no problem. But when your business is at 10 million and you go ask them for 1.2 million, you know, uncle Bob says, you know I love you, Josh, but you know, I'm not the right investor for that level. So you have to think of your capital strategy not as an event, but as a process where you're always looking at what capital at the lowest risk, in the lowest cost to fuel that growth. And a lot of people get to a certain level, they don't have the capital planning. So then the growth rate, you know, levels off. So we saw the platform and we brought the capital strategy to place, and we did it through a combination of debt and equity.Scott 00:04:17 And that's what continued to fuel the growth because the person already had in place the ownership group alr...
In this solo episode, Coleman Ayers breaks down how to evaluate basketball players through the lens of ecological dynamics and the constraints-led approach. Rather than focusing solely on what a player can currently do, Coleman challenges coaches and scouts to look deeper—into an athlete's constraint history, adaptability, mental models, and ability to solve problems in representative environments. This episode is less about how to run practice and more about how to see players clearly.Coleman outlines five key mindset shifts that can transform how coaches analyze talent: understanding environmental, individual, and task constraints; prioritizing adaptability over repeatable technique; identifying scalable traits like shooting through noise and perceiving affordances; decoding mental models and cultural influences; and finally, evaluating athletes in truly representative, game-like environments. If you're serious about recruiting, player development, or simply understanding your athletes at a deeper level, this episode provides a practical framework to sharpen your lens.00:00 Introduction: Evaluating Through an Ecological Lens 04:07 Why Constraint History Matters More Than Current Skill 05:53 Environmental, Individual, and Task Constraints Explained 09:30 Understanding an Athlete's Development Background 13:19 Adaptability vs. Repeatability in Skill Evaluation 15:56 The “Red, Yellow, Green” Framework for Unorthodox Technique 17:28 Shooting Through Noise & Scalable Skill Traits 20:06 Perception, Eye Tracking & Beating the Initial Defender 21:12 Affordances: Seeing Opportunities Before Executing Them 22:46 Decoding Mental Models & Cultural Influences 26:55 Collectivism vs. Individualism & Adaptability Spectrums 28:09 The Problem with On-Air Evaluations 30:29 Representative Environments & Competitive Dynamics 31:35 Manipulating Internal States & Competitive Stress 32:56 Diagnosing Weaknesses Through Game-Like ConstraintsCoaching Resources: https://byanymeanscoaches.com/resourcesBAM Blueprint Book: https://byanymeanscoaches.com/blueprint-bookIf this episode shifted the way you think about evaluating talent, share it with a coach who needs to hear it and leave a review to help us continue pushing the needle forward in modern coaching.
This episode is brought to you by B2B Better. Most owned media audits produce 50-page reports with vague recommendations and zero next steps. We give you four questions, 90 minutes, and a clear decision: kill, fix, or scale. If your podcast has downloads but no pipeline, this episode shows you how to audit your entire owned media strategy in 90 minutes and walk away knowing what's broken and how to fix it. Host Jason Bradwell breaks down the Four R Framework — Reach, Resonance, Revenue, and Repeatability — plus a decision tree to kill, fix, or scale. Jason's core point is clear: most owned media audits are useless. They take weeks and produce reports filled with vanity metrics. Today you get four questions that reveal everything in 90 minutes. Reach is the least important. It can be bought. If you turn off ads tomorrow, what happens? That tells you whether you have real distribution or rented attention. Resonance is where it gets interesting. Jason would rather have 100 views at 85% consumption than 10,000 views at 20%. The 100 who watch the whole thing are deeply engaged. The 10,000 who clicked away were never going to buy. For video, 50% consumption is good, 70% is excellent. For podcasts, 50% is good, 75% is excellent. Revenue asks: is your strategy generating commercial results? The benchmark: 30 to 50% of closed deals should have at least one content touch. Content-influenced deals should close 20 to 30% faster. If attribution is weak, you have an activation problem, not a content problem. Repeatability determines if your strategy works long term. You should produce content four to six weeks in advance without overtime. If you're in hero mode with one person holding everything together, you need systems, not heroics. The decision tree is simple. High reach but low resonance? Fix the content. Low reach but high resonance? Scale distribution. Low everything? Kill it. High everything but low repeatability? Fix operations first.

Qualytics is redefining enterprise data quality by positioning it as a collaborative business function rather than an isolated data engineering problem. Founded at the start of the pandemic by Gorkem Sevinc - a former CTO and CDO who spent years managing reactive data quality firefights - Qualytics emerged from a clear practitioner pain point: writing endless custom rules to catch data issues after they'd already broken dashboards and KPIs. The company raised pre-seed and seed rounds while building with beta customers, then closed a Series A as repeatability patterns emerged in their POC process. Now, as enterprises scramble to operationalize AI initiatives, Qualytics is experiencing explosive inbound demand from organizations realizing their data foundations aren't ready for democratized data access. Topics Discussed The practitioner insight that sparked Qualytics: reactive rule-writing doesn't scale Leveraging existing CTO/CDO networks and PE portfolio connections for beta customers The evolution from free POCs to paid POCs as a mutual commitment mechanism Identifying repeatability through week-by-week POC conversion patterns Building practitioner credibility into the sales motion while hiring for enterprise sales grit The decision to hire sales and marketing leadership simultaneously post-Series A Tracking in-product engagement metrics (DQ operations frequency, anomaly detection, rule editing) as churn prevention Positioning data quality as vertical-specific business problems (premium leakage, regulatory compliance) The timing advantage: AI adoption forcing enterprises to treat data governance as mandatory infrastructure GTM Lessons For B2B Founders Talk to 100 prospects before writing code—even with deep domain expertise: After burning 18 months building a radiology second opinion product that patients didn't want (they didn't even know radiologists were doctors), Gorkem adopted a hard rule: validate with 100 conversations before building. His advantage as a former CTO who lived the data quality problem created false confidence. Practitioners often assume their pain is universal, but buyer awareness and willingness to pay are separate questions. Start with NSF I-Corps-style problem validation: show rough sketches, probe what happened when they hit the pain point, understand how it hurt them financially or operationally. Repeatability appears in micro-conversions during trials, not just closed-won rates: Gorkem didn't declare product-market fit when deals closed—he declared it when he could predict POC behavior by week. "Week two, I'm expecting this. Week three, I'm expecting this." That predictability enabled ROI calculators and internal champion enablement materials. For technical founders, this means instrumenting your trial or POC to track leading indicators: specific features activated, data volumes processed, number of team members engaged, frequency of logins. When those patterns stabilize across prospects, you have a repeatable motion. Use paid POCs as a procurement front-loading mechanism, not a revenue play: Qualytics charges nominal amounts for some POCs—not for the revenue, but to get the MSA signed and force both parties through legal/security review upfront. This eliminates the pattern where free POCs succeed technically but die in procurement. Large enterprises often refuse to pay for POCs, which Gorkem accepts—but only if they commit equivalent effort (executive time, cross-functional teams). The paid POC is a qualification tool: if they won't commit anything, they're not a real opportunity. Hire sales and marketing leadership in parallel and hold them to unified GTM metrics: Gorkem regrets hiring early sales reps before leadership and delaying marketing investment. Post-Series A, he hired both leaders simultaneously and holds them jointly accountable to pipeline generation and velocity—not siloed MQL counts or quota attainment. This structural decision forces collaboration on messaging, ICP definition, and campaign strategy from day one. For technical founders who "figured out" founder-led sales, resist the urge to replicate your motion with more SDRs. Bring in strategic leadership that can build a scalable system. Instrument product engagement as your earliest churn signal—then intervene immediately: Beyond quarterly NPS and executive QBRs, Gorkem tracks granular product usage: how many data quality operations users run, how many anomalies they discover, how actively they're editing rules. When engagement drops, he doesn't wait—he jumps into the customer's existing weekly meetings to diagnose and course-correct. For B2B founders building complex products with long time-to-value, passive health scores aren't enough. You need active usage telemetry and a low-latency intervention process. Translate technical capabilities into vertical-specific business outcomes: Gorkem doesn't pitch "data quality for data engineers." He talks about premium leakage with insurance companies and OCC/SEC data controls with banks. This reframing works because buyers recognize their problem, not a vendor category. The shift requires research: understand each vertical's regulatory environment, operational pain points, and the business metrics executives care about. When you walk in speaking their language about their P&L impact, you're not another vendor—you're someone who gets it. Time your market entry to when "nice-to-have" becomes "must-have": When Qualytics launched, some enterprises called data quality a "nice-to-have." AI adoption changed that calculus overnight. Organizations planning to let 20,000 employees interrogate data through AI interfaces suddenly realized they need robust data governance, quality controls, and cataloging first. Gorkem's timing wasn't luck—he built during the "nice-to-have" phase so he'd be ready when AI budgets made it mandatory. Technical founders should identify the external forcing function (regulation, technology shift, economic change) that will transform their solution from vitamin to painkiller. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Prefabrication has moved beyond proof of concept. In this kickoff episode of Prefab, Unfiltered, recorded live at Advancing Prefabrication, Todd Weyandt explores what it really means to enter the execution era of prefab. The debate is no longer about whether prefabrication or modular construction works. It's about scale, repeatability, and partnership. From data centers driving massive MEP prefabrication growth to owners rethinking procurement and risk models, the industry is shifting from experimentation to operational maturity. In this episode, we unpack: Why data centers are accelerating prefab adoption How scale changes the economics of modular construction What true construction partnership actually looks like Why culture and contracts may be the next barriers to innovation If you care about prefabrication, offsite construction, BIM-to-fabrication workflows, or the future of construction innovation, this conversation sets the tone for what comes next. The execution era has begun. MEET OUR GUEST Amy Marks is a leading voice in prefabrication and industrialized construction, with more than a decade of experience advancing offsite construction, modular strategies, and large-scale MEP prefabrication. She has played a significant role in helping owners, contractors, and manufacturers move beyond transactional project delivery and toward scalable, repeatable partnership models. Her work has been especially influential in mission-critical sectors such as data centers, where standardization and scale are reshaping how projects are delivered. Amy focuses not only on components and assemblies, but also on the culture, procurement models, contracts, and executive alignment required to make prefabrication successful at scale. Todd Takes Prefabrication Has Entered the Execution Era For years, the industry focused on proving that prefabrication works. That debate is over. Prefab works. Modular construction works. Offsite strategies work. The real question now is whether we can execute consistently and at scale. Can we repeat results across projects? Can we move from isolated success stories to operational maturity? The future of prefabrication is no longer about experimentation. It is about discipline, ecosystem alignment, and getting better with every project. Prefab is no longer experimental. It is professional. Partnership Is a Business Model, Not a Buzzword The construction industry talks about partnership often, especially in prefabrication and modular construction. But there is a difference between transactional vendors and true partners. If five companies are bidding every project, that is procurement. It is not partnership. Real partnership involves shared risk, shared reward, executive-level communication, transparency when challenges arise, and a long-term commitment to scale together. In data center construction and other high-volume sectors, partnership is becoming structural, not optional. When both sides are fully invested, prefabrication scales. Scale Changes Everything Scale is the unlock for industrialized construction. When companies move beyond living project to project, they gain the breathing room to invest in systems, standardization, workforce development, and repeatable prefab workflows. Data centers are currently driving that scale, especially across MEP prefabrication and modular assemblies. The lessons being learned in data center construction today will influence healthcare, semiconductor, commercial, and even housing in the years ahead. Scale creates maturity. Maturity creates repeatability. Repeatability drives the future of prefabrication. More Resources Thanks for listening!

In this special episode, host Peter Bauman (Le Random's editor in chief) speaks with Paul Seidler and Paul Kolling from art collective terra0 about their project Autonomous Forest (2025). They cover the nearly decade-long journey from white paper (2016) as university students to the project's NFT launch in December 2025.The collective shares how the original idea in the white paper mutated with projects like Flowertokens, Premna Deamon and now Autonomous Forest. They also cover why working through German law and smart contracts creates better frameworks than pure speculation, how the project evolved from startup pitches to nonprofit governance, and what it means to build living systems that exist outside economic (and human) exploitation.Monday's Le Random Editorial on "Standout Artwork of 2025"Thursday's Le Random Editorial: "Zero 10 Part 1: Beeple Casts a Spell" by Kevin BuistChapters:
From a last-minute YC application to a $5 billion Company built on deep technical insight.In this episode, Viral Bajaria, Co-Founder and CTO of 6sense, takes us back to the very beginning. He recounts his early days at Hulu, where managing massive data systems during the Super Bowl taught him how data could drive real business decisions.Joining one of Y Combinator's early batches, Viral recalls being interviewed by Sam Altman and Garry Tan, and how the team quit their jobs after getting in, moved into a small townhouse, and began writing code. While most startups begin with small customers, 6sense started with some of the biggest enterprise logos. Viral explains why repeatability and implementation are harder when selling only to large accounts, and how those lessons shaped their approach to building sustainable growth. He also reflects on the difficult years when growth stalled, when the company had to rebuild its product, and when they learned that great technology means little without strong go-to-market execution. It is a story about timing, conviction, and the patience to build for what will not change.0:00- Trailer 02:26- First job at Hulu & exposure to big data06:36- YC interview by Sam altman & Garry tan08:22- Quitting job for YC11:07- First version: Big data analytics platform12:12- Getting in YC batch that downsized from 130 to 4713:27- The need & opportunity for a Merger15:49- Why Founders should learn to let go & avoid slow death16:07- Why everybody at YC advised against the merger?18:16- A VC next door that chased 6sense20:18- Rebuilding the product for B2B20:57- How this startup started with the biggest logos?21:59- Repeatability is hard when selling only to enterprise22:47- There were lot of startups, with lot more money23:32- How to build for things that won't change in 10 years?29:24- Ad platforms only targeted People, Not companies32:02- Why did 6sense get a new CEO?33:50- Funding rounds that led to $5Billion37:20- What 2013 Co's were doing can be done with 1% today38:39- When competition raises a $100M round39:40- If you build a company on LLM, there is no data moat42:02- What is the extent of guard rails for Agents?43:59- Viral's Investments in India & US Companies54:44- Co's should raise money to appear bigger than you are56:55- Vibe spending: People are spending money to try AI59:52- Is there a right time for vibe mode for every industry?01:02:00- Service as a software is selling agency to customer01:03:58- Why co's in the US-india corridor will succeed?01:17:27- Why Viral invested in Neon?-------------India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

This episode is a mirror and a blueprint! ⚡️What You'll Learn:- Why being a great electrician won't make you a great business owner- How bad pricing is silently draining your profits- What mindset shift unlocks your next level of sales- Why your “product” isn't the panel—it's the experience- The secret to repeatability that scales beyond the truck
“Repeatability is the biggest hurdle in time-lapse monitoring, but it's also where the opportunity lies. 4D FWI can help address those repeatability challenges.” On this episode, Andrew Geary sits down with Madhav Vyas and Kris Innanen, guest editors for July's The Leading Edge special section on 4D full-waveform inversion. They explain how 4D FWI goes beyond traditional differencing by fully inverting wavefields, making time-lapse seismic more robust against survey inconsistencies and complex overburden. Listeners will learn why now is the perfect time to adopt 4D FWI, the main technical hurdles around repeatability and uncertainty, and the first steps to take for reservoir monitoring and survey design. KEY TAKEAWAYS > 4D FWI inverts the full wavefield - reflections, refractions, diving waves, multiples - to detect reservoir changes, making it more robust than conventional 4D processing. > Repeatability of surveys and assessing uncertainty are the biggest challenges, but workflows like hypothesis testing, batch FWI, and null-space shuttling help mitigate inversion noise. > High-quality data and accurate physics (elasticity, attenuation, anisotropy) are essential; advances in GPU-driven computation enable faster iterations and richer uncertainty analysis.

*** We'll be taking a break over the Christmas/New Year period and will be back in action mid-January.That means that although there won't be any new episodes for a few weeks, we'll be taking another look at some of our favourite conversations from 2024. ***Anyone with even a passing interest in Time Attack has likely heard of Norris Designs, a UK-based tuning company probably best known for its insane north-south oriented, twin-charged, short-wheel base Evo IX time attack monster. On this episode of Tuned In, we sit down with founder Simon Norris to get some insight into this brain-melting build, plus much, much more.Use “NORRIS100” to get $100 off our HPA Tuning Starter Package: https://hpcdmy.co/starterbLike many of us, Simon Norris began his love affair with cars and motors early in life, pulling apart engines on the kitchen table as a child. While there was a slight detour after leaving school to study engineering, it wasn't long before Simon spied a new opportunity in the burgeoning JDM aftermarket tuning scene just as he was cutting his teeth working in a Nissan dealership in the mid-nineties. So, after seeing how others were starting to mess with tuning ECUs, Simon decided he could do better, and promptly opened Norris Designs way back in 1998.Nearly three decades later, Norris Designs is one of the biggest names in the UK tuning scene. In this conversation, we first kick into the business side of Simon's life, finding some great insight into what works and what doesn't when it comes to building a company in the motorsport industry. We next get into tuning in general, where Simon discusses different ECU options, dyno styles, and the many factors that can cause discrepancies between individual dyno runs. From there it's on to the real meat and potatoes of this episode — Simon's incredible Mitsubishi Evo IX. With its north-south-orientated billet supercharged AND turbocharged 4G63, the AWD Evo is an engineering masterpiece that absolutely tears up any race circuit it's unleashed upon. Simon does his best to answer the many questions we have about this car in an attempt to get to the bottom of what makes this shortened and roof-chopped weapon tick, and why Simon made the choices he has with this build.

The history of fermented foods like beer, bread, and other foods can be traced back thousands of years to ancient civilizations in China and Egypt. This ancient technology was originally used to preserve foods when refrigeration was not an option. While less common in modern industrialized civilizations, we're now realizing that fermented foods play a major role in gut microbiome diversity, which is a biomarker for overall health. Join our conversation with Dr. John Leech, Technologist at Teagasc in County Cork, Ireland to learn all about the history and how cutting-edge technologies are being applied to research in food fermentation. John shares his story of how he found this field of research and how he's now headlong into striving to understand and harness the power of fermented foods. We learn about the complex microbial communities that define and deliver the health benefits of these foods, but we also hear about how this biological complexity makes them inherently irreproducible. Foods like kimchi, sauerkraut, kombucha, tepache, milk kefir, and water kefir are produced from fermentation, facilitated by complex communities of microbes. Consumption of fermented foods can alter our gut microbiome, which has been shown to affect obesity, inflammation, longevity, and efficacy of drug treatments. John and his team are using qPCR, NGS, and other methods to characterize the microbial consortia used to produce these foods. They're now working to figure out how to simplify the consortium while still delivering health benefits, all while making the process reproducible and scalable Subscribe to get future episodes as they drop and if you like what you're hearing we hope you'll share a review or recommend the series to a colleague.

Sanctuary…it is perhaps the most controversial and poorly understood aspect of habitat management for wintering waterfowl, yet potentially most important. In Part 2 of our discussion with Dr. Nick Masto and Dr. Abby Blake-Bradshaw, we dig deeper into their study of wintering mallards in western Tennessee, with a focus on the relationship between ducks and sanctuary. How did mallards respond to experimental disturbance, and how did it affect shooting opportunities of hunters? How does the amount and distribution of sanctuary affect mallard movements and habitat use patterns, and did mallards return to the same areas year after year? Does extreme cold weather drive birds south, or does it depend? The answers to these and other questions may surprise you, and you could find yourself questioning long-held beliefs about sanctuary.ww.ducks.org/DUPodcast

Each and every building is indeed one of a kind, but in truth, not everything needs to be that special. UMC's Ryan Hoggatt worked on a project one time that had two almost identical buildings but a bathroom on the bottom floor of each had a different center point. His point with the story here is that the subtle differences between buildings and projects makes it hard to replicate and fabricate. Repeatability and consistency doesn't have to be the death of ingenuity. Ryan Hoggatt is the Director of Manufacturing for UMC. He strives to solve the complex challenges of built environments and their systems. His work on standardization in the industry has consistently reduced energy, operational costs, promoted sustainable building environments and more.

Important points:There are places where nuance adds value. Many times, explicit definitions around data aspects like quality or even SRE metrics like uptime and query performance are not one.Provide a simple way for producers to apply these scalable approaches - the platform should measure data quality metrics for example.Data producers are having a hard enough time in general learning how to leverage data better. Find places to make it about learning about the information encapsulated in the data product, not learning a new set of SLAs for each data product.Consumers will thank you too since it make their lives easier. With that, you should see more of an uptick in data usage.Please Rate and Review us on your podcast app of choice!Sign up for Data Mesh Understanding's free roundtable and introduction programs here: https://landing.datameshunderstanding.com/If you want to be a guest or give feedback (suggestions for topics, comments, etc.), please see hereEpisode list and links to all available episode transcripts here.Provided as a free resource by Data Mesh Understanding.

Timeline Summary:[00:00:05] Introduction to the Topic: 500m Rowing.[00:01:05] The Importance of Technique in Rowing.[00:02:12] Two Technique Tips for Efficient Rowing.[00:10:16] Building an Aerobic Base for Rowing.Key Takeaways:The Importance of Technique: While rowing is accessible to many, mastering the technique can make a significant difference in performance.Technique Tip 1: Learn to row with your feet out of the straps. This encourages proper leg drive and prevents over-reliance on arm strength.Technique Tip 2: Focus on leg power over upper body strength. Shorten your pull stroke and pull from a more efficient position.Aerobic Base: Before diving into anaerobic training, it's essential to build a strong aerobic base. This helps in faster recovery and sustainable performance.Aerobic Speed Work: After building the aerobic base, the next step is aerobic speed work. This involves shorter, more intense bursts of rowing to improve speed without compromising on technique.Repeatability is Key: The ability to maintain a consistent pace over multiple 500m rows is a true test of one's aerobic capacity and technique.Websites and Links Mentioned:Strength MattersQuotes:"Most people pull with the arms. And they don't drive with the legs. However, with your feet out the straps, it forces you to push back." - James Breese"Rowing should be more about leg power than it is about upper body." - Josh Kennedy"Unless you're going for the world record of 500m, think about 500m row times two. It's about recoverability." - James Breese"Building that base and being able to recover quickly is probably game-changing for most people." - Josh Kennedy"It's all about health and longevity." - Josh KennedyShow Your Support: Rate and Review Us!If you enjoyed today's episode, please consider giving us a 5-star rating and a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Ever found yourself panting and gasping after a running interval, wondering just how long you should be resting before the next one? You're not alone. In today's episode, we dive deep into the age-old question of rest intervals between runs, and why we at Strength Matters are shifting towards heart rate recovery instead of mere seconds on the clock. Spoiler alert: It's all about personalization, and your heart might just be the most accurate timer you've got. Stick around to discover our newfound approach and why it might be the game-changer you've been searching for.Timeline Summary:[00:00:23] Rationale Behind Using Heart Rate Recovery for Interval Rests.[00:01:51] Introducing the MAFETO Method for Aerobic Base Building.[00:03:06] Heart Rate Recovery as a Measure of Repeatability.[00:04:58] How Intervals Vary Based on Goals and Recovery Points.[00:06:11] Maintaining Consistency in Aerobic Power Workouts.[00:07:47] Optimizing Training Sessions with Personalized Recovery.Key Takeaways:Changing Rest Interval Approaches: The importance of rest between running intervals and how the approach towards it has changed over the years at Strength Matters. The significant shift has been towards using heart rate recovery as a metric.Personalization of Training: James emphasizes the need for personal and unique training methods tailored to individual requirements. The MAFETO Method and Aerobic Threshold: The simplicity and effectiveness of this method are highlighted.Using Heart Rate for Interval Recovery: The goal is to make the training as personalized as possible, allowing the rest period to adjust according to the individual's heart rate recovery.Benefits of Heart Rate-Based Recovery: By using heart rate as a metric for recovery, it allows for better aerobic development and intraset repeatability. Websites and Links mentioned:Strength MattersQuotes:"In a world full of gadgets and in a world full of data now, it's more, much more readily available that somebody has a watch." - James Breese"We're a big fan of making every training plan personalized to the nth degree where practicable." - James Breese"In a nutshell, it's more personal and unique and individual to the person we're training with." - James Breese"The problem I've always had with time-based intervals is that it's always assuming that you're in top condition or on peak performance." - James Breese"For us heart rate recovery rest periods is the best way to do it. Particularly for runners doing running sets." - James BreeseShow Your Support: Rate and Review Us!If you enjoyed today's episode, please consider giving us a 5-star rating and a review on Apple Podcasts or wherever you listen to podcasts.

As we wrap up our series on Private Markets and Venture Capital specifically, it's important to highlight why Venture has been so impactful in building multigenerational wealth. Historically, Venture Capital as an asset class has had remarkable returns due to its positioning on the cutting edge of innovation. Returns always come from and with risk, but the long period of illiquidity, uneven returns, and the J curve that is usually witnessed can be risk factors that are mitigated with a strong financial structure and a systematic, consistent, and repeatable approach.Have questions for an upcoming episode?

League of Wildness, We're back with a solo-cast from @wilddanvinson. I saw an article about how consistently diets DO NOT work and it made me consider the importance of longterm repeatability. Specifically, if you are going to pursue something to improve your health and fitness it MUST be consistently repeatable for essentially - the rest of your life. Interestingly - as you get healthier there will come a point where to get even healthier it will take massive effort to continue to improve your health. At this point, the focus can start to shift towards maintenance. In this episode: The gold standard of any practice is repeatability. Why unprocessed foods can help a ton to reduce caloric load. Thinking about nutrition and diets as a practice. ...and much more! If you have questions, comments, or a potential guest suggestion please send a note to info@wildgym.com or send us a DM to @wildgymco on Instagram. Let's keep the conversation going. Thanks for tuning in and if you are enjoying the episodes we would be eternally grateful if you could leave a 5-star review. It helps to grow the show and spread the good word of the Wild. Thank you. Much love! -Wildman Dan www.wildgym.com
