10 | How to Make Your Fitness Classes Un...

KYLE WOOD
About this episode

Have you ever prepped an amazing workout, checked your class list the night before, and felt pumped about a packed session—only to be greeted by crickets the next morning?

You're not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing a real story from listener Moira, a dedicated trainer who built her 6AM class from scratch—only to be ghosted by half the room come sunrise.

We'll dive into:

  • The psychology behind no-shows (it’s not about you)
  • How I shifted my own model to increase consistency and commitment
  • Practical follow-up strategies you can use—even if you work for a gym
  • What it means to create emotional buy-in and community outside the workout
  • How to make your classes feel like something people don’t want to miss

Plus, I share the exact reason I created Group Flow—a way to run your group sessions so people stay engaged long after the initial motivation fades.

If you're tired of chasing consistency and ready to build a more reliable, resilient fitness community, this one's for you.
