Most gym owners and fitness professionals are already using AI in some form, but very few are using it well. In this immersive one-day workshop, you will learn how to move beyond surface-level use and begin leveraging AI as a true force multiplier for your business. The AI Advantage in Fitness is designed for gym owners, operators, and ambitious fitness professionals who want to work smarter, create leverage, and position their business for the future of fitness. This workshop is not about chasing trends or replacing human coaching. It is about amplifying your expertise, reclaiming time, and gaining a meaningful competitive advantage in an increasingly crowded marketplace.
The day is structured as a powerful blend of strategic education and hands-on application. Participants will receive a clear, practical understanding of how AI can be used across marketing, sales, and operations, followed by guided, live implementation where AI is actively applied to improve these areas during the workshop itself. Attendees will leave with clarity, confidence, and a repeatable framework for using AI as an everyday business tool. The workshop is led by Corey Smallwood, a long-time training gym owner and operator, best-selling author of The AI Advantage in Fitness, fitness business consultant, and national presenter. Corey brings a grounded, real-world perspective to AI, showing exactly how gym owners and fitness professionals can use it to elevate their business today and prepare for what comes next.
