Focus on health to attract and retain new members in 2022

14 Jan 2022
Body composition assessments with Tanita Europe B.V. – the worldwide leader in health monitoring – are a proven method of attracting and retaining members
The ‘health seeker’ is a term being used a lot within fitness right now, as recent surveys have shown.

At Tanita we’ve been using this term for some time to describe those gym members where perhaps the aesthetics of fitness are not the main motivator, instead consumers are more interested in health benefits.

They’ve often been the most difficult to engage with, as they largely have quite vague reasons to join and retaining them can be challenging.

Body composition technology and the wide range of health data available such as muscle, fat, visceral fat, water and metabolic age has been utilised for a long time as an essential tool to facilitate engagement with this gym member demographic.

Focusing on the different areas of ‘health’ motivates these members and when they can monitor and track their improvements in these areas, they remain members for longer.

What strategies do you have in place to hit your January new member targets?

Body composition assessments with Tanita Europe B.V. – the worldwide leader in health monitoring – are a proven method of attracting and retaining members.

"To attract and retain members in 2022, focus on health," Simon Wilkinson adds, Tanita's fitness & sport lead/technical rep UK.

What are the benefits?

Testimonial
"Our members are loving seeing all the information and having a real visual of what they are achieving. It's such a good motivator to keep pushing on for their desired result. It allows us to focus on a variety of health markers and the ones that are most important to our clients.

We have seen a direct impact on engagement, motivation and as a result members keeping up with programmes for longer and seeing greater success."
– Steve McClory, Owner, Code Fitness, Newark
Testimonial
"We pride ourselves on supporting our members with reliable health and wellbeing data and Tanita enables us to do that. Using it helps us as an operator to build relationships with clients, which is an excellent way of increasing retention.

It allows us to provide clients, both corporate and club members, with a really accurate picture of their body fat percentage, muscle mass, visceral fat and – importantly, their metabolic age."
– Kofi Boateng, Coach, Hero Training Club, Manchester
Testimonial
"SLL (Stevenage Leisure Ltd) has been using Tanita technology since 2014. This has made a huge difference in how we can monitor the progress of our customers and keep them motivated to reach their goals and ultimately, aids retention. All members are offered a body composition scan at week one, six and 12 as part of their member journey. The technology is easy and quick to use and the customer can see instantly where they have progressed or areas where we can help them to adjust their training or nutrition to help them to improve. Tanita has been instrumental in all health and wellbeing initiatives that we have offered over the years and is easily transported into the community as part of our outreach projects."
– Juanita Prescott, Head of Health and Wellbeing, Stevenage Leisure Limited/InspireAll
