As a fitness industry leader, club owner, or operator, you understand that training alone is not enough to drive optimal results for your clients and members. Nutrition, specifically performance fueling, is a key factor in enhancing client performance, supporting recovery, and ultimately increasing member retention and success. Yet, how often do we prioritize education on this critical part within our businesses?

canfitpro is proud to present the ASPIRES Nutrition & Performance Fueling event on May 2, 2025—a must-attend virtual experience designed to equip fitness professionals with innovative insights on how nutrition directly affects athletic performance.

General Session Highlight: The Ozempic Effect

One of the most anticipated sessions of ASPIRES is The Ozempic Effect: Nutrition, Weight Loss, and Athletic Performance presented by Andy DeSantis. The rise of GLP-1 medications like Ozempic and Wegovy is revolutionizing weight management and reshaping the fitness industry.

A recent article from Medical Xpress highlights how gyms and trainers are adapting to members using these medications, emphasizing that muscle mass loss and decreased appetite require a new approach to fitness coaching. While these drugs support weight loss, preserving muscle and ensuring proper nutrition are crucial for long-term health and performance. Fitness professionals need evidence-based strategies to help clients balance nutrition, exercise, and recovery in a way that supports strength, metabolism, and overall well-being.

Why Should This Matter to You as a Business Leader?

💪Enhanced Client Outcomes – Trainers must understand how to fuel clients effectively, especially those on GLP-1 medications, to optimize performance and preserve muscle mass.

📈 Competitive Advantage – With more members relying on weight-loss medications, your facility must evolve. Equipping staff with the latest nutrition education ensures you stay ahead.

💰 Revenue Growth – Knowledgeable trainers can integrate nutrition coaching and specialized programs tailored to members using GLP-1s, driving new revenue streams.

🎓 Expert-Led Learning – ASPIRES brings industry leaders like Aderonke Daramola, Andy DeSantis, and Sue Mah, delivering innovative insights on performance fueling.

🖥️ Flexible & Accessible – A one-day virtual event ensures your team gains knowledge and continuing education credits (2 CECs) without disrupting operations, making it a smart investment in professional development.
