A: Our highly unique center design and innovative Nutrition – Body Sculpting – Cardiovascular Fitness provides a “women’s day spa” ambience. By creating an atmosphere that caters to the growing number of women who seek a more personalized and encompassing service, our owners are confident in knowing they offer more than just a health club or a commercial diet center Q: What makes Inches-A-Weigh centers so different from Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig? A: Inches-A-Weigh is the only “all-inclusive” program that combines nutritional guidance, behavior modification, body sculpting, and cardiovascular fitness all under one roof. This eliminates the cost and inconvenience of joining both a diet center and a gym. Our core difference—on-site exercise—offers customers a permanent year-round lifestyle center. We offer twice the value at half the price. We are rewarded with monthly renewal revenue from our active and inactive members, which our competitors do not enjoy. Q: Why is a weight loss customer very different than a health club customer? A: Our clients prefer a program that is individualized according to her specific goal weight. Our center programs closely monitor the customers’ progress and offer a higher and more personalized degree of weekly service for measured results. Health club members are usually younger and have less than 20 pounds to lose. They prefer standardized monthly services that are self-directed. In many cases, exercise equipment, social atmosphere and the lowest monthly dues are their only real needs.	Q: Why is the health/fitness industry so profitable? A: The health/fitness industry will continue to be one of the fastest growing segments of our economy over the next decade.
