In this episode, Khaled Elmasri delves into the crucial role that routines play in helping new gym members stick with their fitness journeys.
Last week, we discussed the first two drivers of habit formation: quality motivation and enjoyment. This week, we focus on the third driver: routine.
Key Points Covered:
High Dropout Risk: New members, especially those with little or no exercise experience, are at the highest risk of dropping out. Statistics show that 50% stop attending within the first six months, primarily due to lack of added value, guidance, and poor induction.
Critical First Six Weeks: The initial six weeks are vital for introducing members to the club and integrating them into a program. Early engagement is essential for forming lasting habits and seeing results.
Five Key Areas to Focus On:
Goals and Motivation: Understand members' deep-rooted goals and what's driving them.
Availability: Help members block off time for exercise as they would for other important appointments.
Exercise Preferences: Know their preferred types of exercise, whether it's cardio machines, weightlifting, or group classes like Body Pump and Yoga.
Barriers and Self-Motivation: Identify obstacles that prevent members from exercising and gauge their self-motivation levels.
Budget: Consider both time and financial budgets to support their fitness goals.
Smart Planning: Utilize tools like the Les Mill Smart Plan to create a structured induction for new members in their first seven days.
Training the Team: Ensure your team is equipped with the right training and tools to effectively induct new members.
Next week, we’ll discuss reinventing the sales process to better support new member onboarding. Stay tuned, and don’t forget to like, share, and leave your feedback. We’d love to hear what strategies you’re using in your gym!

We dive into the first three of five key drivers designed to help members maintain their motivation and achieve their fitness goals:
Quality Motivation: We discuss the importance of setting realistic and time-bound goals right from the start. By employing the SMART criteria—Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Realistic, and Time-bound—we help members visualize and reach their targets.
Our Les Mills Smart Start program is highlighted as a practical tool to ease members into group exercises that align with their individual fitness objectives.
Goal Setting and Accountability: The power of writing down goals and sharing them with a support network is emphasized to bolster commitment and accountability. This strategy is essential in helping members stay on track with their fitness goals.
Setting and Achieving Incremental Goals: Breaking down large goals into smaller, achievable milestones is recommended to keep members motivated and engaged. We explore how setting monthly targets can make daunting goals like losing 20 pounds more manageable and less overwhelming.
We wrap up the episode with a reminder of the importance of these strategies in fostering long-term commitment among gym members.
Stay tuned for our next episode, where we will uncover the remaining strategies to keep your gym members enthusiastic and dedicated to their fitness journeys.

In this day and age, being an authentic business has become very important because people are starting to crave more of that emotional connection. Admittedly, this can be a great challenge for some, especially those who rely on Facebook ads. For today’s conversation, Khaled Elmasri invites Nicole Spencer, a former fitness studio owner turned Authentic Marketing Coach for Fit Pros. Nicole successfully started, ran, and sold her boot camp for a six-figure profit in just three years and ran an online weight loss coaching business. Her specialty now is building businesses from $0 to over $10k/month in less than six months in both the online and brick + mortar space. Here, she shares some of that great wisdom with us, particularly about becoming more authentic so you can thrive this 2020. Nicole then imparts more advice about finding that authentic voice, getting a mentor, nurturing old and new clients, posting content, and more. As the industry gets more crowded, separating yourself will take a lot of effort. Building an authentic brand that people will feel connected to and want to be a part of will be your game-changer.
