Episode 90 | MDV | The Burpee Penalty and How to Address Late Athletes
Everyone's favorite co-host, MDV, is back for this one, and damn is it good. Today Jason and MDV are taking on the infamous 'burpee penalty.' We get it, sometimes athletes are late to class, and you've got to get them warmed up and ready to go. However, even though this tactic warms your athlete up, it completely cools them down in regards to your business. We've said it before and we'll say it again, we are in the customer service industy. Think about the culture and experience something like the burpee penalty creates for your gym's atmosphere. Today the guys provide helpful insight and suggestions on better ways to address the chronically late member.

Episode 89 | MDV | The Secret (Free) Ingredient for Elevating Your Business
What's the "free" ingredient we're talking about today, you ask? Feedback! We've heard it all: "I don't have the support network to provide feedback," "I'm afraid to give/ask for feedback because of a power dynamic," or someone is blatantly unaware that they could use some. Today, Jason and MDV are discussing how to go about receiving feedback and what to do once you've got that information. Want to take this discussion a bit further? Be sure to check out the NCFIT Collective (linked below) where you can find the evaluation documents used at all NCFIT locations. Sit back, relax, and start putting people in place to call you on your...stuff!

Episode 87 | MDV | The Curse of the Unpaid Coach
This episode goes there and hits home; we're talking about the "curse of the unpaid coach." Most of us have been there, right? We work out a 'bro' deal to have a current member or buddy coach a couple classes a week in trade for a free membership. You get some free labor and they get some free fitness, win-win, right? Today's episode breaks down the implications of the bro deal from both a professional and legal standpoint, and will provide a new framework for gym owner and head coaches to operate from. Enjoy!

Episode 84 | MDV | Simple Doesn't Mean Easy
"Can I talk to you about the programming?" is probably every coach's and gym owner's worst nightmare of a conversation. Today Jason and NCFIT's Chief Fitness Officer, MDV, tackle the idea of workouts being 'too simple' after receiving workout feedback. Essentially, functional movements all serve a purpose and passing value judgements on them doesn't make the movement any less effective. With well over a decade in the field and countless hours of programming and training under their belts, the two are able to share insight with listeners about intended stimuli of workouts, while lending information that can help coaches and owners work with athletes of all skill levels.
