    Behind the scenes of Concept2 with Alex Dunne

    This week, John and Adam sit down with Alex Dunne from Concept2. Alex walks us through the history of Concept2, from its roots in innovative rowing oars to becoming a global gold standard in training machines found in gyms, boxes, and training centres worldwide. We explore Concept2’s ethos around product design, what inspires their approach to innovation, and how a relentless focus on performance and durability led to the development of the RowErg, BikeErg, and StrengthErg. The conversation dives into how Concept2 continues to innovate within rowing ergs, why building products that last has always been non-negotiable, and what sets their machines apart in a crowded fitness market. Alex also answers some questions regarding techniques on the ergs and if it is possible to game it to get some sneaky advantages. If you've used a C2 machine, there is something for you in this week's episode. We have an EIC offer for you.

They break down why the location matters and how it could influence preparation, logistics, and travel for those aiming to compete. They also unpack the latest Mayhem Classic invites, looking at which athletes accepted, who declined, and what those decisions might reveal about individual season strategies.

    Behind the scenes of Velites with CEO Matias Hernandez Van Waes

    This week, John and Adam sit down with Matias, CEO and founder of Velites, one of the most recognisable brands in functional fitness. Matias shares the origin of Velites, the mindset behind the brand’s “Made Not Born” philosophy, and what it really takes to build products in the functional fitness space. We dive into the evolution of Velites — from building jump ropes for friends at his local box to becoming the brand it is today, including sponsoring the CrossFit Games in 2025. Matias also gives an inside look at what Velites is building next, sharing highlights from 2025 and teasing new products and announcements coming in 2026. Whether you’re an athlete, coach, or someone who trains in functional fitness, this episode offers insight into building something meaningful, learning through failure, and staying committed to the process.
