Happy New Year everyone! You’ve probably noticed it’s been a couple of weeks since we dropped our last episode of the podcast. Our team is taking a short break from publishing episodes. Rest assured that we are busy planning more fascinating discussions with industry leaders and researchers to heat up the conversation and inspiration again beginning in February. In the interim, check back each week for tips from me on how to leverage your IDEAfit+ Membership to create and fine tune your 2022 business plan. There are many incredible tools available to fitness pros who have an IDEAfit+ Membership, but sometimes we get so busy with the day-to-day that we lose track of everything IDEA has to offer.

Here is my first tip in the series: Did you know that IDEA has the largest library of CECable content in the industry? If you need CEC renewal, IDEA offers a convenient, no-hassle multimedia experience that is 100% included in your IDEAfit+ Membership. With most CECs costing between $25-$35 per unit, the cost of an IDEAfit+ Membership is about 70% less than the cost of buying all of your CECs a la carte. And you get SO much more than CECs.

With more than 15,000 articles from our award-winning editorial team, and over 600 educational videos on topics ranging from fascia and corrective exercise, to how to operate a successful fitness business, look no further for your continuing education resource. IDEA is a one-stop shop for all of it. IDEAfit+ Membership opens access to every single course we have–all of which are approved by more than 25 certification agencies. Even if you don’t need CECs, your learning journey can only be enhanced by this trove of top-notch education.

As a matter of fact, in the past couple of weeks we released 42 brand new video courses. This collection holds handpicked sessions from IDEA® World Virtual 2021, the world's premier fitness, wellness and nutrition education event! 

These courses represent the most relevant topics for today’s fit pro, and deliver the latest programs and cutting-edge research to keep you one step ahead of the game. As a bonus, they are presented by the most successful and forward-thinking experts in the field: Folks like Mark Fisher, Chuck Wolf, Jessica Maurer, Tasha Edwards, Nick Clayton, Sadie Nardini and dozens of other subject matter experts who unlock their A Game for your learning journey.

In addition, your membership also gives you all the benefits of membership including IDEA Fitness Journal, access to our specialty digital newsletters, webinars, workshops, discounted health and liability insurance, business tools to help you grow your business and save time, and so much more! If you’d like to explore everything that’s packed into an IDEAfit+ Membership, call one of our Inspired Service Representatives today at 1-800-999-4332 or visit ideafit.com. 

I hope your 2022 is off to a positive start and that you’re looking forward to creating positive impact in your life, your business and with your clients in this new year.
