    Stefan van der Fluit: Turning Sweat Into Actionable Performance Data

    In this episode, I sit down with Stefan van der Fluit, one of the founders and CEO of FLOWBIO, to dive into how real-time sweat data is changing the way athletes think about hydration, fueling, and performance. We talk about where the idea for FLOWBIO came from, the science behind sweat analysis, and why guessing hydration needs is no longer good enough for athletes. Stefan breaks down what your sweat is actually telling you, how sodium loss impacts performance more than most people realize, and why personalized hydration strategies matter far more than generic recommendations. We also explore how FLOWBIO’s sweat sensor works in real-world training and racing, and how athletes can use the data to train smarter, recover better, and avoid costly mistakes on race day. If you’re an endurance athlete, coach, or anyone curious about using data to unlock better performance, this conversation will change how you think about hydration and fueling.

    Zach 'Ziggy' McGinnis: What Elite Swimmers Know That Most Adults Don’t

    In this episode, I sit down with Zach “Ziggy” McGinnis to unpack his journey from an overlooked, one-star recruit to a two time Olympic Trials qualifier and elite swim coach. We talk about the setbacks that shaped him early on, including major shoulder injuries, and how taking ownership of his development completely changed the trajectory of his career. Ziggy shares what it actually takes to get faster in the water, why most adult swimmers and triathletes plateau, and how elite performance principles can be applied without training like a full-time pro. We also dive into mindset, confidence, and how being underestimated became one of his biggest advantages. If you’re a swimmer, triathlete, or coach looking to train smarter, build speed, and rethink how swim progress really happens, this conversation delivers.
