What Gym Owners Get Wrong About HYROX · 11:16 ↗“when it comes to taking that first step, really the first question that you need to answer is what am I trying to accomplish? Um, like how is higher fitting into what I'm already doing?”
What does Karl Foster say staff need beyond initial AI training?
Karl Foster (Sport Alliance Head of AI) on Running Your Gym on Autopilot with AI · 24:23 ↗“Training is actually critical. It's not just training, it's also making sure you follow up on that.”
How does Spencer Tatum begin designing an integrated solution for an operator?
Spencer Tatum of TCU on Markerless Biomechanics, Wearables, and Athlete Engineering · 12:42 ↗“Well, I think first of all, we got to understand the system, right? How does it all operate, right? So then we have to identify the the problems, rank and prioritize one. Then we need to design an integrative approach.”
