Bodytribe Time: The Clash with Bertrand Russel, Although He'll Kill Me Not!
Who They Are
Bodytribe is a unique place located here in Sacramento, California with one distinct difference between mainstream gyms and this local favorite – that "training is the means to an increase in the quality of life through movement" and that everything we do is simply a tool to do just that – increase the QUALITY of life.
Check out some videos of Bodytribe here.
Sure you can pick up all this crap easily, but do you look like you got crap in your pants when you walk?
The Sacramento Bee in 2008 also gave a good description of this place
" The flora and fauna of the place, the art on the walls, the absence of mirrors and the use of nontraditional gym equipment such as sandbags, kettle bells and giant tires – all of that has drawn a close-knit following of swim-against-the-mainstream types. A tribe, if you will.
This vibe has drawn people to Bodytribe for nearly five years [now 7 years] since it opened on 21st Street, near J Street, in midtown."
The Principles
The mentality, the abilities of the trainers, and the ideology that everything is simply a tool, rather than the goal is an often refreshing view of fitness, not commonly shared by many, and held by only a few. The principles that surround the tribe are as follows
- A passion for strength, not an obligation of the scale.
- Training without mirrors
- Understanding the mind and spirit better through movement.
- Picking up something heavy. Really heavy.
- No fear of the body's abilities.
- Using REAL training tools with long histories. No gadgets or fads.
- Embracing training as intense play-time.
- Acknowledging and exploring capability.
- Training techniques that are useful, enjoyable and sacred.
- Banishing weakness.
These principles hold true in that the goal should be to understand our limitations, but also understand that they aren't set in stone. That we are malleable, able to create our future within our hands like a master carpenter, chipping away at wood, only to end up building a beautiful home. That we shouldn't be scared of who we are, and what we truly want to be in the future, and that our body is tuned to perform, not to pump.
One thing that is also overlooked even in the most underground fitness worlds is that we train (not workout) and build our skills in useful endeavors. This training although can and sometimes should be taken seriously, should also have a sense of "play" so to speak in that it is something that we enjoy, not some routine handed to us, just to give us a good look in the mirror for 30mins.
Understanding these principles, I came in to Bodytribe like a kid exploring a candy store, wondering what today's Saturday Workshop (Single Tool Series: Advanced Dumbbell Workouts) would be like as this was my first visit to the tribe.
To tell you straight up – no one was filled with an ego whatsoever. The trainers we're friendly, understanding, and loved to shred mainstream fitness apart, something I would do too :-). Many of the trainers themselves were finely educated, one who was even Mel Siff's protege, Chip Conrad. For those that don't know Mel Siff co-authored a book titled Supertraining, a book many recognize as the epitome of strength training knowledge.
We warmed up with some interesting move combinations that eventually lead me to remember that mobility doesn't and shouldn't only take place in the standing position, but also in any position that your body can and will be in – Face down, face up, in a turkish get up position, sitting down etc. It certainly hit home in that positions I'm normally mobile in, were immobile…and boy was I unhappy.
Once the class started we covered:
The Saxon Side Bend
Dumbbell Swing
Dumbbell Snatch and Catch
Turkish Get Up
Windmill with two different foot positions (pointed diagonally and straight ahead)
Windmill + a step out or kick out
A few notables was that although Chip and his trainers understood the biomechanics for exercise safety and performance, they also understand that variations exist because of body architecture. For example the Windmill with an altered foot position changes the feel of the exercise quite a bit from the traditional "RKC Standard." There was also a mismatch in that encouraged creativity, rather than stunted it. Play with your foot position, play with your hip width, and determine what may feel better for you at this time.
Another interesting side note was that the Turkish Get Up, was taught similar to how it used to be, as simply a method to get up, rather than as a Movement Screen Analysis ala Kettlebells from the Ground Up, The Kalos Sthenos. The method taught was simply different methods for getting up from either the lunge or squat position and any natural alterations are simply style points so to speak.
Both "methods" aren't bad, but again it's simply understanding when it's appropriate to use the Turkish Get Up as simply an exercise vs. using it as a movement assessment. Both may be needed at times.
Now imagine putting all those movements together into one combo workout and you have a brutal, quick, effective metabolic conditioning workout. Not something I'd normally do, but awesome change of pace from my usual workout.
Kill Me Now
Pushups rows/burpees(with the DB's)/push press
5 sets of 5 reps for time (get your stopwatch).
Bertrand Russell with one pair of dumbbells…
Bent over rows: 6
Swings (with both DBs): 6
Squat Press: 6
Burpees (with DBs): 6
6 times. Time it.
It seemed easy at first, I sped right through the first round, but boy did it smoke my arms out easily within the second round. We only went 2 rounds, and I'm sure happy we did. There's this weird fascination with everything burpee, but who cares, it was all together one of the best experiences I've had in a long time with good people.
Anyway, I am giving the class 2 thumbs up, and can't wait to go back when my schedule permits. If you ever come down to Sacramento on a Saturday. Stop by. They have classes almost every week from 10am-12pm. For more information check out Bodytribe Workshops and Events.

However, I recently found myself mostly relying on gym days for exercise and realized, unfortunately, that I had become a two-trick gym pony: leg day and arms + abs day. Yikes!…

Second Life - Mean Streets
Purple Goo
It's latex, but it's not
It came from the latex-like suit that covered Aria Warden from the neck down. Using ingenuity and a strict adherence to the scientific method, Molly and Rebekkah were able to get a sample off the suit for study.
It seemed to be alive, with a powerful drive for self preservation and protecting the host. While encased in it Aria experienced near super human strength and reflexes. She also ate and drank four times what she normally did and excreted no waste.
When she encountered the man who identified himself as Dr. Vashir he seemed able to control it through force of will. Extending it up over her mouth to gag her and restraining her with it.
When she was freed from it the material seemed to evaporate completely. The only remaining sample is in the custody of Molly and Rebekkah.

KEEDYSVILLE - Keedysville residents who want to run for Town Council must file their intent to run by Monday with the town clerk.
Voters will choose a mayor, assistant mayor and the three Town Council members during balloting on Saturday, May 1, Assistant Mayor Matt Hull said Monday.
Under a recent election ordinance change, the mayor and assistant mayor's offices will be four-year terms and two of the Town Council slots will be two-year terms. The third council member will be seated for a four-year term.
Hull said the change was made so not all seats would come open at the same time.
Mayor Lee Brandenburg said once the council is elected, if one member does not volunteer for the four-year term, the council will select a member to serve that term.

Cooking instructor in a hotel management school
« For a long time my goals and wishes were to become a better teacher and I did my best to keep on studying by reading and collecting information as much as I could. My first acquaintance with the HEG program was "love at first sight". Trying to frame this "once in a life time journey to the Olympus of knowledge and gastronomy" in a few words would be almost a sin.
Still, I am willing to take the risk. Or like old Frank Sinatra sang "Start spreading the news" I want to shout to the world something huge is happening in France once a year!
It has been a spiritual, emotional, professional and international experience. Now almost three months after being back home to family and work I still find myself occupied with this journey on a daily basis.
At home I absorb. I read, learn, translate and work on the great amount of material, wisdom and knowledge we were privileged to learn from the best of the best.
At work I pick the fruits every day. YES I became a better teacher. I can't say I am done, and the way hopefully will never end. And still with a hand on my heart, life looks brighter.
I was promoted at work. I got some brand new projects; I opened new advanced culinary courses for an official diploma, and every day a new door or window is opening to me.
Every minute of the day, I realize how much I learned and enriched myself in so many ways. It was more than anybody with a passion for food and gastronomy could dream of ».
Thesis : the Israeli Breakfast : development and characteristics
President of a food marketing and recipe development company
« I loved the HEG program. It turned out to be more than I expected. In so many ways the course lecture content was relevant to current and future professional and personal projects. Some lectures opened up new areas of interest. The additional knowledge I gained from taking this course allows me to offer more specialized expertise to my clients. Meeting students from many different cultures was a huge plus and added to the experience - I look forward to staying in touch with everyone ».
Account planner in an advertising agency
« My interest in the diploma stemmed, first and foremost, from a personal interest in gastronomy and from a strong desire to acquire a richer and more in-depth understanding and knowledge of its workings. The all encompassing nature of the course appealed to me greatly.
The content of the course was as varied as it was interesting. The lectures were as exceptional as they were intriguing. All those involved, from the students, lecturers and our wonderful course facilitators enriched the experience all the more.
My role as an account planner in a large advertising agency requires rigorous questioning and scrutiny of consumers in an attempt to differentiate between mere 'fashion' and real cultural trends, always with the understanding that richer knowledge leads to greater, more creative advertising. This diploma, in much the same way, uses these same investigative skills, leading to a much greater understanding and appreciation of the wonderful world of gastronomy.
The diploma genuinely exceeded my already high expectations. It was professional, well organized and a pleasure to be part of.»
Thesis : The privilege of time: a critical analysis of the seemingly elitist Slow Food movement in Ireland
Pastry chef, owner of "Penny's Pastries", a catering company specialized in desserts for those with specific dietary preferences: diabetic friendly, vegan, gluten-free and organic
« I initially applied to this course thinking I would learn more about food. I had no thoughts of meeting people, learning about wine or learning about the history, background or why people have certain eating habits. I just wanted any knowledge about food that I could get!
I was pleasantly surprised when I took this course! Not only did I meet a GREAT group of people, some of which I still keep in contact with today, but I learned a plethora of information that is with me for life! I feel smarter to know why we eat how we do, and the history behind that. The course is so perfectly designed to further advance anyone's career, not only those in the food industry! I feel like a smarter chef because I can give the why, where and how behind my cooking now. It's just brilliant!
I never in my life expected to write a thesis and although I am not finished yet, the process has been wonderful. I have learned more about myself from a tiny topic, than I have over the 27 years I have been alive. I owe this course my health. I feel smarter and most of all, I've come to an acceptance of myself that I don't think was possible without this course. I would give anything to do it again, however, I don't think an experience like that could be duplicated.»
Thesis : Second helpings, Please! Why a large number of people (adolescents and older) lose their innate ability to regulate their food intake in reaching a level of satiety
General manager of Gastronomika Italia (a fine food & wine marketing company based in Parma)
« I decided to apply for the DUGGAT's program almost immediately after having read its lecturers and contents, as I was looking for a course that could achieve my knowledge about themes related to food from different perspectives.
The courses gave me some useful tools (from the scientific, economical, sociological and historical side) to read and understand the world of gastronomy, decoding new trends and classic views. In addition to the academic activities, I appreciated the several superb 'practical approaches' (dinner-events, tastings, visits and cooking at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris) that completed the learning-program and made it really special.
So, the two weeks multidisciplinary DUGGAT's program really met my expectations to achieve my know-how and to focus future projects and ideas. Also, being in a great group of food-passioned people coming from 11 countries it was an extraordinary experience, professional and human. BELLISSIMO! »
Director of Swannanoa School of Culinary Arts (North Carolina, USA)
« The title "Les Hautes Etudes du Goût" immediately intrigued me. "Taste": so many perceptions are wrapped up in this one word! Just reflecting upon those five letters (four in French), one begins to salivate, the senses awaken, and then the thoughts turn to all the various ways in which different individuals display their tastes, not only through the food they choose to eat and share with others, but in the choice of a mate, a house, clothing, hairstyle, musical preferences, and all other manner of self-expression.
As director of a culinary school in North Carolina, in which I strive to communicate the French passion for food, linked with the education of the palate, two weeks of immersion in the study of taste seemed like a must. The variety of styles and preferences of the professors was a study in taste itself, with one of the highlights for me being the fiery enthusiasm of Hervé This for a line of thinking he has created.
But by far the greatest value of the experience was the meeting of minds between the students, who hailed from far afield and had each made sacrifices to free themselves from their busy lives for two isolated and wondrous weeks. Being in the company of like-minded souls, lapping up the learning like eager children, although it had been decades since many of us had entered a classroom with pen and notebook in hand, savoring two-star meals and three-star wines, making friends for a lifetime...this is worth more than all else put together.
My hat is eternally raised to those who created and who execute the Hautes Etudes du Goût. You've done the world a great deed!».
Thesis : A question of Taste
Co-manager of Marmiton.org, a website dedicated to cooking recipes
"I was looking for a short and efficient training program which would give me a more global and comprehensive vision of the sector I am working in, that of gastronomy, the food industry and the media related to these areas.
My professional contacts and the sound management of my company demand an amount of knowledge on the various jobs within the world of gastronomy and taste which go beyond my level of enlightened amateur.
In this respect, the Hautes Etudes du Goût have fully answered my needs. We have all been challenged and opened in our conception of what gastronomy and taste were about."
Thesis: Pleasure in the act of eating
Executive chef/owner of a catering business
"I applied for this course because I wanted to make a difference in my catering business by learning new things in gastronomy matters.
Besides, I was very attracted by the fact that it was a multi-disciplinary course.This really caught my attention.
At first, I was intrigued how HEG program would be. In the end, it surprised me in lots of ways. It gave me a very diverse and complete way of analyzing taste, people's conduct towards food and wines.
I'm still trying to process all the information that I received during my stay in France. My experience at HEG was really amazing. Many people asked me why I didn't choose a more practical course, but I was looking for something different.
I think that I can develop my practical skills during my whole life, but to change my perspective towards food and people's needs was what seduced me the most. And I believe that this was what HEG brought me".
Chef/owner of a culinary educative program for children and teenagers
"My two weeks spent in the HEG program were life changing.
I learned more than I ever expected I would and have a renewed passion for learning about the food industry in general after hearing so many lecturers and their passion.
I am an entrepreneur and culinary teacher and I know that I will be a better teacher to my students because of the HEG program. I have new ideas for a curriculum to teach, for example I plan to host a Medieval Dinner of my own for some of my older students.
I have even taken a bit of French culture back home with me; before HEG, at my business, we either skipped lunch or ate it at our desks while working. After HEG I have implemented a 30 minute lunch period where all of my staff eats together as a group. This has brought us closer together in just a few short weeks and we have gotten some really great ideas for improvements for the business in these short periods.
It is always good to remember that food brings people together in a way that nothing else can, we teach this to our students but in our own busy lives managed to forget.
HEG and the great friends I made reminded me of how important meal time is in all of our lives ".
Creator of an education program that promotes great food, the Culinary Arts and personal self development amongst young minds
« The HEG program was an eye-opener for me, and extended well beyond the scope I imagined it would. While it is filled with extremely enjoyable and relevant events and excursions - not to mention an abundance of exquisite food experiences - make no mistake: it is an intensive and rigorous program that offers an array of diverse subjects and ideas all related to aspects of food and wine production in France. The lecture themes cover all the high sciences (biology, chemistry, physics, psychology, social behavior), law, economics, politics and more, in a series of fun and interesting food topics.
The teaching faculty is sourced from the best institutions in the country, and each brings with them a unique style of delivery. Like all good intensive programs, this one is designed to initiate interest and discussion during classroom sessions, leaving the student eager to further explore the topic in more depth at the program's end. It's the best kind of learning experience.
As a food and cooking educator to young minds, the HEG program provided me with a myriad of invaluable material to enhance my learning modules. From the innate and learned taste behaviors of babies, to the laws governing terroir products in France and Europe, to the nature of raw vs. pasteurized cheeses, to the arguments for and against molecular gastronomy (art or eat ?), etc. The course has supplied me with valuable subject material as well as authority with which to influence the eating styles of my student charges. And the learning goes beyond the classroom, in the many lasting friendships I've made among my course colleagues from around the world.
Yes, you'll be quite learned and quite exhausted at the end of it, you will put on 14 pounds in as many days, and will burn your hands at least once on a hot pan handle - but I wouldn't trade the experience for any other. »

How awesome was episode 13 of Goblin last week despite having us bawling along with Eun Tak? Pretty awesome how the story turned out in my opinion. As we reach the near end of the drama, so are the soundtracks. To end with a bang, tvN is releasing the Original Sountrack that consist not only the already released OST singles, it is also including the background music / themes from the drama. In total, we will get 16 tracks in the album. Hmm, what's new? Wait, of course there is more!
December 2016!!! Can't believe another year of my drama watching journey is about to be over. Has it been a fruitful year of good dramas? Yes, I think so, and definitely a year that I've watched the most too! Not sure I should be proud of it as it somehow shows I have no life outside dramas, LOLLL.
Goblin (also known as Guardian: The Lonely and Great God) has really attractive OSTs ever since it first aired. The songs are the kind that you will immediately find it pleasant to the ears and they are well used as BGM in boosting the atmosphere or emotion of a scene.
My current favourites are Stay with Me and Beautiful, and I've found some lovely piano covers too (page 2). ❤

Looks like InStyle has gone all out for their July issue; covering and capturing all the shining star moment from Baeksang. I am absolutely loving what I am seeing, and it's not just because Park Bo Gum is in it, but also our Answer Me 1988 Ssangmundong chingu, as well as all other big shots / winners that night.
There are definitely moreeee pretty pictures of the stars, but I think we will need to buy the magazine if we want to see more. Right now let's look at what has been publicized by InStyle as a teaser…
Last night I was adamant I won't waste my time blogging on 52nd Baeksang Awards, but now that I saw these pretty pictures in HD, especially of the actors I admire, I succumb. I won't be sharing the list of the winners, because that will only give me high blood pressure again. Instead, I am taking this as an excuse for all the busy Ssangmundong kids and parents to find time for a small reunion. And I am sure those who is truly interested knows where to find the list e.g. Google.
Without further ado, let us all go behind the scenes of these glamorous stars' wardrobes for the night.

When Is The Next Fed Meeting
"When Is The Next Fed Meeting?" you ask.
These days, too many people discount the idea of keeping themselves Fed when it counts the most. Of course this refers to eating a balanced breakfast each and every day.
Maybe you stayed up late and slept in, only to find that by the time you got up and got dressed, it was already time for lunch! That doesn't mean you have to go to the trouble of skipping breakfast altogether. You could simply have breakfast for brunch, brunch for lunch, lunch for dinner, dinner for dessert, and then dessert for breakfast tomorrow. It's that easy!
Sometimes, though, you've got places to be. You get up, look at the clock, and realize you don't have time to eat a balanced meal. This happens all too often, and is precisely why the answer to the question, "When Is The Next Fed Meeting?" is "Tomorrow."
Tomorrow morning at 8:00am (or 7:55am for all you Masons) we'll convene in room 334 of the Breakfast Memorial Building (named after John D. Breakfast, who gave his life in the defense of mid-morning meals everywhere). After a reading of the minutes from last meeting, we'll dig in.
Among the topics we'll cover are:
- Reasons Most People Avoid Worrying About Getting Fed Early In The Day
- Why To Be Fed In The Morning Is Important
- How This Affects Our Children
- How To Improve Levels Of Interest In Having A Balanced Breakfast
If he can make it, James Lunch Jr. will stop by and deliver what promises to be a fantastic speech.
Another of the issues we'll discuss, and perhaps one of the most important, has to do with eating cold pizza for breakfast. This is one of the worst things you can do, because pizza is not the healthiest of breakfast choices. But even worse than that is eating cold pizza for breakfast, outside. While walking.
Of course getting fed is important. And of course sometimes we don't have time to stick around indoors and eat, especially when we're running late. But eating cold pizza outdoors while walking has proven to be a lethal combination activity that could have disastrous results. More on this tomorrow morning.
Please join us if you can, and even if you can't, remember to Get Fed!

Manchester United are the only club to have made an approach for Bayern Munich striker Robert Lewandowski. The Pole was thought to be a Real Madrid target, but the Spanish giants are dithering over a move. (Kicker)
Bayern Munich midfielder Arturo Vidal, who's been subject of Chelsea transfer talk, admits he is unsure whether he'll be at his current side come the end of the summer. He is thought to be discussing a new contract, and said: "Whether I stay and extend depends on the people here at the club. We're currently on the right track though." (Sport Bild)
If Real Madrid want to sign Neymar this summer, it will cost them €400m (£355m). That will mean they'll have to sell a number of players, with Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, Isco and Mateo Kovacic likely to leave the Bernabeu to raise funds. (Sport)
Real Madrid have drawn up a shortlist to replace Benzema in the summer. There are four names on their wishlist: Harry Kane, Mohamed Salah, Mauro Icardi and Lewandowski. (Mundo Deportivo)
Ahead of returning to Barcelona for the first time since his departure in 2014, Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas admitted his surprise at leaving the Catalan giants to Marca, saying: "I haven't played a single game there since that day [May 17, 2014]. I didn't realise it would be my last appearance for the club, but the truth is that it was a very sad day all round."
He believes his current side can cause an upset on Wednesday night at the Nou Camp too, adding: "We can't start at the Nou Camp with a negative mindset, it must be the opposite, we have to enjoy this big match." (Marca)
With Antoine Griezmann constantly subject of Barcelona transfer talk, his Atletico Madrid captain Gabi says he's only interested in the Frenchman giving his all while he's still playing his football in the Spanish capital.
"All I've asked of him is that while he is with us, he gives everything, as he is doing," said the midfielder. "Antoine is a special boy to everyone related to this club, he's loved in the dressing room." (Marca)
Atletico Madrid will offer Griezmann a new contract to fight off that interest in him from Barcelona. (Cadena Cope)
Juventus face competition from Bayern Munich and Real Madrid for Liverpool midfielder Emre Can. The Italian giants' inability to finalise a deal for the German, despite being able to speak to him due to his contract at Anfield being up at the end of the season, has led the two European heavyweights starting to sniffing around. But the Bianconeri are still favourites to sign the 24-year-old. (Tuttosport)
Napoli have agreed personal terms with Sampdoria's Lucas Torreira. They must now decide whether to pay the midfielder's €25m (£22.3m) release clause. (Corriere dello Sport)
Paris Saint-Germain are looking to replace Thiago Motta in their midfield this summer. Chelsea's N'Golo Kante and Monaco's Fabinho are the two men top of their shortlist to substitute him. (Telefoot)
PSG's president Nasser Al Khelaifi and sporting director Antero Henrique are set to fly out to Brazil to see Neymar. The main aim is to see how he is getting on after his injury that kept him out of the game with Real Madrid, but they also want to make sure he is still keen on staying in the French capital despite interest from elsewhere.

Desperate people are leaving Central America due to lack of effective government, which allows crime and killings since they lack money to control the criminals. How does Trump help this problem? By offering help in fixing the crime problem? No. He wants to make it worse by cutting what help they are getting.
Trump makes so much of what he touches, worse. The reverse Midas touch. How much worse will he make the world before we can stop him?

We need a new rating system, number of onions needed to produce tears.
Kavanaugh's tears during his anti-Dr. Ford testimony should rate 3 onions. He put on a good show, so that many people believe him.
And Senator Lindsey Graham should be voted out of office.
The New York Times recently reported that China is building a new Island at the tip of Malysia in the major shipping lane between Asia and Europe with an unwilling Malaysia that owes China too much to say no. This city will have a major shipping port. This is the new Forest City.
It didn't mention that the US is doing anything. Trump has probably not heard of Malaysia and shipping in that area.
China 1, U.S. under Trump 0.
It is strange to see that those who will greatly suffer from Trump policies are leading the charge to support him. Trump is trying to kill health insurance programs. Talking about killing Social Security. Killing the climate saving agreement. Making it hard for poor people to vote. Starting a trade war where our workers will loose jobs and things will get more expensive. Lowering the morality of the nation by his example. The harmful list is too long. Praising our enemies and stepping on toes of our foreign friends. Is there an explanation for this self immolation?
My French and German friends say that Trump is becoming a has-been and bringing the U.S. down from it past world leadership with him. Since Trump is tearing down good world agreements, he can no longer be trusted, and his ideas don't make sense.
How long will it take for a good president to re-build the good will and prestige the U.S. used to have in pre-Trump days? How soon can we get rid of this dangerous fool?
Trump has met his match and doesn't know it, Xi Jinping, the smiling leader of China. This man is absolute ruler of China and he is extending his authority over many parts of the world by smiling and promising to work together for a better world. He is also building roads and helping build these countries. Like Tibet, once in control of a country it becomes part of China and the people there are no longer independent, but under the iron rule of Xi and China. Instead of being wary of China, Trump is all on edge over North Korea. While Trump sleeps, China increases its power.

Republicans want to stop the requirement that all have health insurance. Insuring as many in a market is a concept that has been used for centuries. A bigger coverage area spreads the cost around to make it cheaper for everyone including those who actually suffer a "peril" or have to get an insurance payout. Insurers who covered floods and disasters are facing a disaster as not enough customers have paid in to cover all the disasters.

Not doing the basics well is a problem that I see every day for startups. Often a case of being more "keen" than "prepared". If the inputs, people and processes aren't right or ready then the outputs aren't going to be.
Many startups talk about keeping things simple, almost like a badge of honor. When trying to solve a problem, present a message, or interacting with a user, complexity is the natural response. Humans, especially engineers, enjoy providing comprehensive solutions that meet the needs of as many people as possible. Or do they? On average, making something simple and good is much harder than making something merely good.
Here are several areas where I've seen startups have difficulty with simple but good:
- Elevator Pitch – More often than not, elevator pitches are too complicated and don't leave the recipient with a decent understanding of the idea (see Offline Analogy to Describe a Startup)
- Messaging – Quick, go to five startup sites and read their homepage or most recent press release. How clear is the message? How much jargon and corporate-speak is used? Overwhelmingly, startups struggle with clear messaging.
- Metrics – Typically…
