The Future of Training at Home and Beyond

In today’s episode, I sit down with Blake Kassel, the creator behind Flexicon and a pioneer in modern resistance training. We talk about designing a band-driven system that replicates the feel of free weights while reducing joint stress through linear resistance. Blake explains why training for speed matters, how the machine supports full-body strength, flexibility, and cardio, and why teens, pros, and older adults all feel safer without a spotter. We get into real-world use in my home gym, compact setup and steel build, and the growing library of guided workouts. After three decades of iteration, Blake’s vision lands on a smarter path to long-term performance.
