Rockstars in Blackpool by Lucy Johnson

Never have I been surer of the Fitness Rockstar mission than last Saturday.

As I visited the mighty International Fitness Showcase for the umpteenth year there was a real sense of intensity in the air. There’s always hype and excitement at Fitness Conventions of course but something this year was different. Things had been cranked up a notch. There was a real sense of anticipation before sessions and a buzz outside of the rooms that would put premier league football match pre-kickoff hype to shame.

The vibe was ELECTRIC, classes were jam-packed and everyone was there for the same reason. To have a good time.

Massive seas of bodies were moving in unison lead from the phenomenally talented Fitness Presenters on stage. T-shirts, hoodies, DVDs, music and other merchandise were flying from the stands. Delegates were asking for photos with their favourite presenters.

And the level of emotion was unmatched. People crying at the end of sessions because they were so overwhelmed with the feeling of togetherness and elation a well-executed group fitness session brings. Fitness presenters crying on stage and off because of the insane levels of gratitude and adoration they were being shown for doing something they truly truly love.

What does this sound like to you? The hysteria, the fans, the merchandise, the atmosphere? It sounds like a ROCK CONCERT. And so it should because for ages now I’ve been banging on about the enormous impact fitness is having on peoples lives and how we are not just people who turn up and teach a class or train a client and then go home again. We are FITNESS ROCKSTARS.

Or at least we have the potential to be.

Society is changing and there has never been as easier time to come to the forefront of your community, region, country or even the world as a lifestyle role model. A fitness leader to be followed. Someone with a message that could change the health and well being of millions of people.

Governments are desperately pumping money into fitness and activity schemes to cope with the obesity epidemic upon us. McDonalds are serving salads. Big business and faceless corporations are falling by the wayside because we now crave friendship and transparency NOT establishment and security.

Can you see what’s happening? We as a society are becoming more and more health conscious and at the same time we are trusting big business less and engaging with individuals more and more via social networking platforms.

Has there ever been a better opportunity therefore to step away from big gyms, fitness companies and set up your own company as a Fitness Rockstar?

Has there ever been a better time to leverage your existing fitness business and take it to National Rockstar status?

No. There hasn’t ever been a better time and there won’t be a window of opportunity like this for long either. Things move in cycles so if you want to stand out in your industry, make a real difference to society and create a following you can lead to a better lifestyle then you have to take action now.

Recognise the potential you have to change lives whether its within your home, locally, nationally or internationally take responsibility and step up to the plate. Commit to doing only what you love and create a Fitness Rockstar lifestyle and Fitness Rockstar following.

Write a book, go on local radio, speak at an event – get out there and watch the opportunities roll in.

Now’s the time Rockstars.

Love Rachel and Lucy xxxx
