Recent research reports devouring chocolate might ward off the specter of heart disease. Reviews of long-term and short-term randomized controlled trials published in PubMed unveil that the right types of chocolate can cast a positive spell on early markers for Type 2 Diabetes.

The trials featured adults who ate cocoa extract or ≥70% cocoa dark chocolate over period of weeks. In both meta-analyses the cocoa “showed a positive effect” on the risk factors leading to cardiovascular disease, such as cholesterol, fasting blood glucose and blood pressure levels. Unfortunately, eating good chocolate does not lead to weight loss – so that excuse is out! To read the full reports, click the button below or on the highlighted link above.

Enchanting power lifters to the rescue.

Claude Mumpower III holds no ghostly illusions about his gym members. He admits only 10% are dedicated power lifters, the true ghouls of the gym. Yet these haunting showpieces attract the other 90% of paying members. Here’s how he’s brewed a successful business by capitalizing on a niche market.

1. Buy the best equipment. Packs the gym with Arsenal Strength and Rogue Fitness machines.

2. Offer lots specialty pieces. Boast 13 deadlift platforms and enough equipment to slide training outside in spirited weather.

3. Show off the talent. Hosts nationally sanctioned power lifting and Strongman competitions throughout the year. 

4. Brand the bearded man. Grew the fan base phenomena with branded T-shirts, hoodies, stickers and more.

Pro Tips 📋

How can you conjure a profitable gym?

Here’s our teams’ suggestions from the podcast “Your Burning Questions Answered.” 

1. Keep a card on file.  Raise the boiling temp for gym rates if members insist on paying month-to-month.

2. Go 24/7. To switch to a 24/7 gym, choose a  stand-alone door controller or either our automated, easy-to-afford, access barcode system or our bewitching Digital Keytags product. 

3. Keep track of your gym’s financial goals.  See the blog below for more details on Gym Insight’s built-in goal setting software and our location performance report for tracing month-over-month comparisons.  👇👇👇
