The Month 1 Cliff

New members start with high motivation. By week 3, they are confused. By day 30, they quit. This pattern destroys gym profitability.

The "Month 1 Cliff" in Gym Retention

Week 1: High MotivationWeek 3: ConfusionDay 30: Dropout

A lack of daily feedback creates uncertainty, leading to dropouts.

The solution? Daily feedback. When a member knows exactly what to do every day, they stay.
