Top Tips to Successful Weight Loss Challenges
- Use a weight loss program that works. It sounds simple right? The reality is that many fit pros attempt to give their clients too many restrictions and rules. If your clients followed these rules they would be successful, but a program that is too complicated is too much work. Try a program that revolves around “cutting out the junk.” Simple is better in this case.
- Be firm with your clients. They have signed up for this program because they want to lose weight and they want someone to hold them accountable. Follow up with clients when they are not on track.
- Invite people to sign up for your weight loss challenge. That’s right….invite everyone you know! Give them the chance to say YES! Personal invitations from you go a long way. You would be surprised at how many people are on the fence and all they need is that extra encouragement from you
- Teams = success. One of the reasons our weight loss challenge works is because of the team aspect. Each of our trainers is required to recruit and manage their own teams. It becomes a big competition at our studio and the winner gets bragging rights all year. Clients will start drinking more water, eating more vegetables, getting in more activity…because they don’t want to let their team down.

One of the reasons our Spring Makeover Challenge (Yearly Weight Loss Challenge) is so successful is because we offer and use the Fitness Results Manual as the main resource for participants. This is a 100 page resource tool that walks participants through the importance of cardio, strength training, nutrition and more. There is a 6 week plan that both trainers and the participants follow to ensure they are reviewing all the material.
This is a resource tool we use for this Spring Makeover Challenge, we give it to new clients, use it for corporate wellness programs and so much more! You can learn more from this quick video I shot where I review the Fitness Results Manual:
We sell this resource to fitness professionals like you to use in your own business. Change our name to your name and our logo to your logo and run with it! Now you have the information you need to run a super successful makeover challenge and the resource tool you need can be yours too! Don’t hesitate.
