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.
