69. Painted dogs, Katie is a hot mom, and making fitness, friends, AND money.

Jordan and Katie  kick things off with a lighthearted discussion about viral news, including a Chinese zoo painting dogs to look like pandas. They dive into the importance of following up with gym leads, with JHo sharing insights on their process at RESET and emphasizing how persistence can lead to higher conversions. Katie reflects on the challenges of balancing gym capacity and maintaining the right community vibe in smaller, personal training environments. They also explore the growing influence of AI in fitness, considering how it might complement coaches rather than replace them. The episode wraps up with their usual witty banter, gym stories, and a listener question about handling trainers who want to open their own gyms.CrossFit | CrossFit Games | Become a CrossFit Affiliate | Fitt Insider | Club Industry | Athletech News | Associated Press | Professional Coach Newsletter | Onthisday | Forbes | Barbell Spin | Morning Chalk up | Washington Post | Wall Street Journal | NewYork Times | IHRSA | RESET CrossFit | Megawatt CrossFitIG:   @katiehogan777  |  @blacknesssmonsterEmail:  [email protected] | [email protected] questions to Jordan via email or IG dm
