☆ Ozempic is coming for gyms. Here’s how they’re responding
  + stars: | 2024-03-01 | by ( Nathaniel Meyersohn | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +5 min
New York CNN —America’s gyms are adjusting their strategies as more of their members take weight loss drugs. JPMorgan researchers estimate that 30 million people may be taking GLP-1 drugs by 2030, or around 9% of the US population. For now, GLP-1 medications are prohibitively expensive for most Americans, costing about $1,000 or more a month. (Ozempic has not been approved for weight loss by regulators, though Wegovy, a similar drug, has.) It also made a $100 million-plus deal to buy Sequence, a telehealth business that offers virtual prescriptions to patients for these weight loss drugs where appropriate.

☆ Life Time stock plummets as company spends more on premium fitness experience
  + stars: | 2023-10-25 | by ( Brandon Gomez | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +1 min
Life Time Group shares plummeted 15% Wednesday after the company's third-quarter results revealed higher spending to boost the premium member experience. The cost of running its fitness centers, including new and ramping locations, rose 8.2% year over year during the quarter to $319.4 million, the company said. The program changes are an attempt to keep Life Time's affluent customer base satisfied as prices rise across the board and many consumers increasingly value premium offerings. Life Time increased its prices at many of its locations in recent years, though pricing varies by market. "We aren't taking advantage of all the different connections we have and all the different programs we have, so there is essential work being done to systematize all of that."
