On the last episode of Optimal Aging, I shared a recent presentation I gave to the Functional Aging Institute online. THIS episode features the Q&A session that followed, and it's full of smart questions and (I hope) useful replies.Do you wonder about posting on a blog?How often you should share on social media?And what about emails?Then, this is the session for you, as Dr. Dan Ritchie and I of FAI field questions from other fitness pros serving the over-50 market.Online ResourcesFunctional Aging SummitPrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market

This week's episode is the recording of a webinar I did with Dr. Dan Ritchie of the Functional Aging Institute. Dan was kind enough to let me present on seven "Do This/Not That" communications examples for gym owners who want to grow their businesses with more people over 50.There were quite a bit of questions after my presentation. I'm going to share the Q& A next week, but for now, I just want to give you this presentation. I also want to put in a plug for the Functional Aging Summit this July in Los Angeles, where Dan and Cody have invited me to present. If you have any interest in Learning how to grow your business around this demographic, you can't do anything better than go to LA for a couple of days and meet with the FAI folks at the summit. You'll learn a lot, meet great people, and get to visit sunny Southern California. Can' t go wrong!Online ResourcesFunctional Aging SummitPrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market

It's been five years since I got into the "fitness over 50" game -- and five years since I first met Dan Ritchie and the Functional Aging Institute.So, when Dan asked me to speak last week at an FAI gathering in Nashville last week, my thoughts turned to "then" and "now." I spoke about 5 points of communications in the over-50 market that were true then -- and 5 that are new today. Change is scary sometimes. But it comes whether we like it or not. So, I wanted to take this opportunity to remind gym & studio owners that they need to keep their eyes and minds open while evaluating what comes along, what happens, and what's worth their attention.ResourcesFunctional Aging InstituteMy new course to motivate men over 50 to get off the couch and into fitnessLife Priority Supplements -- Affiliate Discount  hereFunctional Aging Institute -- Use FAIMM50 discount codePrime Fit Content – Engage the over-50 market

Today, I have one of the leaders and truly “Good Guys” in the fitness industry.  Dan Ritchie brings a wealth of experience. After achieving a PHD from Purdue University, he opened Miracles Fitness which he ran with his partner Cody Sipe for over 15 years before selling it.  He then poured his attention into building the Functional Aging Institute, also with his partner Cody.  They recently sold the company they started and built to the certifying powerhouse, ISSA.  Dan is passionate about helping fit pros develop in their career to make a bigger impact and more profit.  He came on for a powerful discussion including: The 2 skills that made the biggest difference in his career Why and how he approached the older market What top gym owners have done to dramatically turn their career around I want to share some important dates and links that were mentioned on the show: Functionalaginginstitute.com Mastermind in Nashville (Surprise guest Billy Hofacker, lol) Oct. 26/27 FAI Summit - 7/12/13 in LA Listen to this episode, apply what you learn, and teach it to others.

If you've attended a fitness conference recently, this may or may not resonate. Online fitness conferences in the past few years have been different. Back in real person, we're all a bit hungry for the community and excitement that bringing people together offers. But have you experienced this? A drained feeling, a definite adrenal rush potentially, but also a superficial show of persona as opposed to real connections? This may resonate with you if so.    Sometimes you just know that you've landed. Whether it's because you find your people, or you have also found yourself and you're comfortable in your own skin.    The soul-sucking information pathway that social media has become for me was taking a toll. I was definitely not looking forward to this trip. I could think of a million reasons not to go! We're launching a new cohort of the Flipping50 Menopause Fitness Specialists and it was the last 4 days we're open. I had just opened our recent launch of our 12-week consumer course-plus-coaching offer. I had a mastermind meeting to prepare for. And every once in a while, I can take for granted where I'm at and what I'm doing and wonder if I'm offering any new insight in my talk.    Definitely my thoughts before the fitness conference. Of course, in the process of presenting, and answering questions, and having people thank me and ask follow-up questions, I realize that I... I am the biggest benefactor of presenting because in doing so I remind myself that from 0 to 6-figure months is nothing to take for granted. I realize that sharing that story was crucial for me to have the reminder of what I am capable of doing… again.     Time to Attend a Real Fitness Conference I was long overdue to attend a fitness conference that wasn't full of superficial “awesome” high-fives and selfies and find some source of peace and collective goal-seekers.   Mission accomplished.    I've known the hosts of this conference for a decade I guess. I don't know at all. Cody Sipe was first on my radar I believe as a presenter and award-winning fitness pro with ACE (American Council on Exercise).    He and partner Dan Ritchie formed Functional Aging Institute. They hosted a first event in 2015 and I was invited. It's a small world, where I've met other guests that will be familiar to you if you've attended the What, When & Why to Women's Exercise Summit: https://www.flippingfifty.com/womensexercise Dr. Emily Splichal – who is your go-to for all things feet issues that may limit your clients and for improving balance, stability and continued activity for life.   Bedros Keuilian – who is a renowned fitness marketing mastery expert and who has evolved as so many fitness and health pros do, to mindset and personal growth. Fitness Marketing Secrets.   Sister team Kymberly Williams-Evans and Alexandra Williams of funandfit.org co-wrote a guest-contribution to You Still Got It, Girl! (published by Healthy Learning in 2015).    Dan and Cody also contributed to the same book's chapter on strength training. And Dan was a guest speaker on The What, When & Why to Women's Exercise Summit.   And here's why.    The Health & Fitness Professional Experience   When you meet good people, hold onto good people. I've had many “lunches” with fitness pros over the past few decades. But many of them were networking from the beginning, felt like networking, and I couldn't wait to recover after.    Others, like lunch I had with Dan a couple years ago, and the lunch I enjoyed with Lindsay Vastola (you may recognize as prior editor of PFP magazine for 10 years) and a few others, this weekend were rich in real connections and laughter.    It's not fair I suppose to compare pre-pandemic to post but I do believe there's more to it. It's also not fair to compare an early career or tendency to wear imposture syndrome, with seasoned career and an attitude of I just don't care what people think, I'm doing the right thing.   I've seen too much about the inside of fitness conferences and about who and how they are chosen to speak, and what they're reality is behind the scenes. I don't suggest that we don't all have things we may regret, but if you knew about industry award-winners, who and how promotions occur, and the very flimsy “influencer” market you are playing in if you decide to post based on what you see others with large audiences post, you're headed for a reality check faster than you might know.    What glitters, and is botoxed, does not shine so much in real life.    The Reality of Fitness Conferences   I usually go home from fitness conferences exhausted. Not because of living a 1980s or even early 90s fitness conference reality where it was workout session after workout session. But because of the vibe. The junior-high-like cliques, ego-driven exchanges, the near-elevation of presenters to celebrity status that makes it less a learning environment than a day at a fitness bootcamp to see who holds up the longest, has the newest apparel and still parties through the evening.    But this conference was different. Connections were real. Instead of ducking out to my room to recharge I stayed the day watching it all before and between my sessions. Speakers were around and making connections with each other as well as attendees.    A panel of three female fitness leaders I was on had such great synergy not only with each other but with the audience. It was as rich an experience for each of us participating I think as it was for those in the room attending beginning to grow their own businesses. Lindsay, I and Alexis Perkins whom I'd never met had a great time co-hosting the panel.    If you want to see and know what's possible, consider that Alexis Perkins has founded Chair One Fitness [Link to learn more https://chaironefitness.com/]. She's 30. She's got contagious enthusiasm. She's figured out it's figuroutable. Don't look at her and say, I wish I'd started then, look at her and say that it's possible for any one of us. She's a young woman of color, serving an older market both in the older adult caregiving arena and in the fitness professionals she trains. What do you need to overcome? Why not you? She's doing it and she's a breath of fresh air.     Conference Locations, Sessions & Keynotes The keynotes were not “look at me” but a real connection with audience through personal story and industry facts and overcoming challenges.    Seek out conferences where you not only get knowledge poured into you, but you get filled up like this.    Recently in our customer support I was asked about fitness conferences in Salt Lake City. This comes the same weekend I'm IN SLC for this conference. Does that feel a little too like AI or Alexa listening in? I can't answer questions like that unfortunately, Google is your best GPS for that.    But if you do have questions about what and where to gain education virtually or in person in a way you not only get knowledge, but gain community, reach out to us. We'll help and we'll host. We have educational events for health & fitness coaches in conjunction with our Flipping 50 retreats. So if you're up for a weekend of hiking to put your fitness to work and your mind at ease and then also fill up your cup with business support, let us know you're interested.    We're putting together some challenging destination hiking opportunities as well as other slightly milder but high-volume outdoor adventures combined with Menopause Fitness & Coaching Strategies for you.   Other Episodes You Might Like:  Fitness Marketing Secrets to Recession-Proof with Bedros Keuilian: https://www.fitnessmarketingmastery.com/fitness-marketing-secrets/ Business Partnerships and Collaborations | Amazing Health & Fitness Growth: https://www.fitnessmarketingmastery.com/business-partnerships/ Resources:  Health & Fitness Business Scorecard: https://www.fitnessmarketingmastery.com/scorecard Sunlighten Saunas: https://www.flippingfifty.com/sauna The Flipping 50 Cafe: https://www.flippingfifty.com/cafe

Dan is the Colts 1 coach at Norths Rugby Club in Brisbane. He was previously the Director of Rugby at Brisbane State High. During our conversation we spoke about wearing different hats as a 1st XV coach and getting to know your players and reducing your risk. We spoke about having a feedback framework of what do we need to stop doing, what do we need to keep doing and what do we need to start doing. How training through games and having chaos and messy training is good and letting players sort things out for themselves. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bullys-rugby-coaching/message

Today's guest was also my very FIRST guest when I started the podcast more than a year ago — Dr. Dan Ritchie of the Functional Aging Institute.We spoke a few days before Christmas and thought it would be a good chance to look back on 2021 and pivot to looking forward to 2022.But then Covid messed with everything yet again, wiping away any pretense of a clear demarcation line.So, we punted and talked about that — how the ground keeps moving below our feet — and how we can all continue to cope, to serve, and to succeed. As always, Dan serves up plenty of great perspective and information.Resources and LinksThe Functional Aging InstituteThe Functional Aging SummitNaamly -- Support our advertiser, who helps you keep in touch with your members

Dan Ritchie said he wished he'd know email marketing was a big part of personal training success. Are you using email marketing correctly? Is it at least a third of your business?  I asked Dan, the question I most often hear: There's a fear that if you send an email people will unsubscribe, what do you say to that? If your email marketing skills need polishing, if you hate it, if you want to love it and reap the rewards from it, you'll love this interview with Dan Ritchie.  Dan's a fitness professional and an educator at heart. If he can embrace the power of email marketing to help his business of helping people grow so can you.  Email marketing strategies using resources like AWeber, Constant Contact, Mail Chimp, Office Autopilot, and Infusionsoft are becoming the norm. Once you have them though the real work begins. What will the customer journey be? Which emails will you automate and what will go out from you in updates and broadcasts?  When you start exploring email marketing there's a lot to consider and Dan and I did.      Questions we answer in this episode with Dan Ritchie: How often do you mail your list? What do you recommend? What is segmenting an email list How to segment a list Has deliverability and open rate changed? How to send hundreds of emails a day without any effort Email services for beginning and growing into What's a good "first" email platform you recommend for trainers? and why?  Subject lines that suck vs. get your email opened The book Dan recommends How easy is it to make money online Book Dan mentioned: The Hour a Day Entrepreneur by Henry J. Evans Connect with Dan: functionalfitnesssolution.com vibrantfitnessforwomen.com https://functionalaginginstitute.com for a Free Starter Kit Let us hear from you! Is email marketing something you've avoided or thought you didn't need? Is it something you're paying more attention to in 2018?  Does it help to hear that a higher range of email frequency achieves  greater success in passive sales?

The key to true humility is in knowing and accepting who we are and who we are not. We are who God says we are, not what other people say, and also not what our own mind often says we are. The story of Daniel Ritchie - www.danielritchie.org  Psalm 139 When we learn live and speak from who we really are we also learn to know and respect other people for who they are, and when we learn to listen to their hearts we learn to hear God's heart for their human suffering. Isaiah 57:15 For thus says the High and Lofty One Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: “I dwell in the high and holy place, With him who has a contrite and humble spirit, To revive the spirit of the humble, And to revive the heart of the contrite ones. Philippians 2:5 Think of yourselves the way Christ Jesus thought of himself. He had equal status with God but didn't think so much of himself that he had to cling to the advantages of that status no matter what. Not at all. When the time came, he set aside the privileges of being God and took on the status of a servant to humanity, becoming human and staying human. He humbled himself. He didn't claim special privileges. Then God gave him a name above all names. 1Peter 5:5 And all of you serve each other with humble spirits, for God gives grace to those who are humble, but resists those who are proud. If you will humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God, in his time he will lift you up. Jesus was in charge but humbly chose not to be in control, and that is true authority (Matthew 20:20). Humility is an act of courage and controlling is an act of fear, because it fears disempowerment. But humility expects God to empower its gracious act, releasing healing from God that we can't always give to another. Our faith points to this reality and promise to work hope in the hearts of other people. 1. God will give you what to say and when to say it. (John 12:49) a) Does this need to be said? b) Does it need to be said by me? c) Does it need to be said by me now? This also applies to doing as well as speaking. This is doing/working as unto the Lord. 2. We will learn to listen and to hear God's heart for a suffering humanity. 3. We will be given creative words and deeds of life to speak and to do. Words of faith are creative, and inspiring, and there are more opportunities to speak them than you think. Paul said ‘I have delivered unto you that which I have received from the Lord'. Your life can be an ongoing experience of creative prayer – things said to God and with God and then from God to others. We can bring good out of evil, life out of death, reality out of unreality, like Dan Ritchie did, like Jesus did, and Paul.
