Fit Happens Membership

The membership gives you room to explore, experiment, and progress without having to commit to one path. You can try different training styles, switch focus as your goals change, and level up from beginner to advanced without buying new programs each time.

You want flexibility to explore different training focuses (strength, agility, mobility, etc.)
You're planning to train long-term and want the library to grow with you
You like having ongoing access to nutrition resources and live support
You prefer discovering what resonates rather than committing to one specific path

Signature Plans

Signature Plans let you dive deep into one specific goal with expert guidance. These are 12-week self-paced programs built in collaboration with experts (like Dr. Stacy Sims and Dr. Vonda Wright) that you own forever, so you can return to them whenever they fit your goals—even years later.

Each includes a structured training plan and helpful resources to support you as you follow along.

Available plans:

Power Happens series (Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced)

Created with Dr. Stacy Sims for building maximum strength and power
12 weeks per program
Home and gym options available

Start Strong

Created with Dr. Vonda Wright for bone health, longevity, and getting started with strength training
12 weeks
Can be done at home with minimal equipment or at the gym

Good fit if:

You have a clear, specific goal (build serious strength, improve bone density)
You want lifetime access to one proven program you can return to
You prefer owning your content outright rather than a subscription
You're not ready for a membership commitment but want expert programming

Equipment note:

Both Power Happens and Start Strong offer home and gym options. See our Equipment Guide for detailed equipment requirements and alternatives.

Can you combine with membership?

Yes! Many people use a signature plan for focused strength work while also accessing membership for variety, nutrition resources, and specialty programs.

Group Courses

Group courses give you structure, accountability, extra guidance, and community. You're moving through a program alongside other people with the same goal, with live coaching, weekly content, and a private group to keep you on track.

Fat Loss Happens provides extensive education modules from world-class experts, while the Shred Happens challenge provides some Q&A calls with experts, but no structured education component.

What's the difference?

Shred Happens (6 week challenge) $149

Fat loss + muscle building focus
Intensive, results-driven challenge
Live Q&A calls with experts
Beginner and Intermediate/Advanced workout options
Full access to replays and workouts for 9 months

Fat Loss Happens (9 week education course) $800

Extensive education (updated annually) from world-class experts, empowering you with a sustainable fat loss approach
17+ modules of video lessons and downloadable PDFs - rich with expert guidance
Weekly accountability and coaching
Expert support from our Registered Nutritionist in the private community
Beginner and Intermediate workout options
Full access for the life of the HHF app

What's included in both:

Personalized calorie and macro guidance
Private community group

Good fit if:

You have a specific short-term goal (fat loss for an event, seasonal reset)
You thrive with structure, deadlines, and group energy
You want live coaching and real-time support
You're motivated by doing something alongside others

Member discount:

If you have an active Fit Happens Membership, you'll receive offers to register with the highest available.

Common Questions

Can I have more than one?

Absolutely. Many people combine options based on what they need:

Membership + Power Happens (variety + focused strength specialization)
Signature Plan + Group Course (ongoing training + seasonal fat loss focus)
Membership + Group Course (full library access + community accountability)

Which should I start with?

There's no single right answer. It depends on what feels aligned with how you like to train:

New to HHF? Try the membership with the 10-day free trial to explore, or choose one signature plan if you have a clear goal
Want variety and flexibility? Membership gives you the most options
Have a specific goal? Signature plan or group course/challenge
Thrive with community? Group course or challenge
Budget-conscious? One signature plan gives lifetime access* for one payment

Want help choosing a specific plan?

Once you know which option is right for you, use the Workout Plan Summaries in the app to compare individual plans:

Open the app and log in
Tap the GROUPS tab
Search for "Fit Happens" and select the Fit Happens group
Choose RESOURCES from the dropdown
Search for "Workout Plan Summaries"

This resource describes what each plan offers so you can find the best fit for your goals.

Do membership workout plans expire?

Your access to workout plans lasts as long as your membership is active. If you cancel, you lose access to membership-exclusive plans but keep any signature plans you purchased separately.
