Australian fitness businesses wanting to include dietary solutions for their clients are turning to the Metabolic Jumpstart Nutrition System - which is already providing diet and weight loss solution for over 40 businesses, ranging from sole personal trainers, to large facilities and a national outdoor fitness franchisee.

Leading Dietitian Matt O'Neill, who has already delivered nutrition plans for 20,000 Metabolic Jumpstart participants, explains "every fitness business needs a nutrition program to deliver the results that clients demand, but many fitness professionals just don't have the time or expertise to deliver it."

Metabolic Jumpstart has an Official Partner scheme, where by fitness businesses buy their nutrition programs at a 40% discount. They then either sell the nutrition plans as a stand-alone retail product or package it with coaching, into fitness challenges or memberships.

O'Neill states "I've made Metabolic Jumpstart extremely flexible to use because every trainer and fitness centre is different. I've got the nutrition plans sorted, so they can get on with their core business of training and keeping clients."

Once a client is registered by a fitness business, they automatically become a Metabolic Jumpstart Club member, receiving access to online resources, including; recipes, tip sheets, downloadable tools and expert diet plan adjustments by O'Neill. A related weekly member e-newsletter can also be customised with business logos and promotional messages.

O'Neill continues "retention is a challenge and that's where we help, essentially providing an integrated nutrition service, support and communications to help keep clients as customers."

Starting up a Metabolic Jumpstart Club is easy and only takes a couple of days before you can start registering clients. Comprehensive training is provided either face-to-face or online and optional Coach Certification offers 6 Fitness Australia CECs.

Perth-based Evolve Health is already a Metabolic Jumpstart client, with Director Tony de Graaf stating "Metabolic Jumpstart's Club System is not only an extremely effective nutrition program, but it's also extremely easy to use.

"I've integrated it into my PT studio with minimal effort and maximum results."

Matt O'Neill maintains that the biggest benefit of his partnered approach is the ability to compete in the cluttered weigh loss market. He wants to see fitness and leisure businesses get a greater share and he's on a mission to help out with Metabolic Jumpstart.
