Snap Fitness Launches AI Body Composition Scanning and Personalized Nutrition at 1,100+ Gyms Worldwide Through Spren Partnership
Smartphone-based DEXA-level body scans and 24/7 AI coaching now available to millions of gym members — no hardware or appointments required
MINNEAPOLIS, MN & ASHEVILLE, NC – June 2025: Snap Fitness, a Lift Brands company operating over 1,100 clubs worldwide, today announced a partnership with biometric AI company Spren to offer members smartphone-based body composition scanning and personalized nutrition coaching.
The partnership addresses a critical gap in the fitness industry: less than 10% of gym members typically work with personal trainers, leaving the remaining 90% without personalized guidance and accurate body composition tracking. Spren's technology not only fills this gap but also helps identify members who could benefit from personal training they didn't know they needed.
What Members Get
Starting now, Snap Fitness members have access to:
Best-in-class body composition scans using only their smartphone camera — measuring fat, muscle mass, metabolic rate, and other key metrics in under 2 minutes
Personalized nutrition targets calculated based on individual body composition, age, ethnicity, activity level, recovery status, and health conditions
24/7 expert support, accountability, and motivation through AI coaching that provides real-time guidance, from meal suggestions at the grocery store to workout recovery recommendations
"Most of our members don't have access to personal nutritionists," said Andy Peat, Executive at Lift Brands and CEO of Fitness On Demand. "With Spren, they can track their actual body composition changes anytime, anywhere and get nutrition guidance that's specifically calculated for their body — not generic meal plans."
Beyond Generic Fitness Apps
Unlike standard fitness apps that offer one-size-fits-all recommendations, Spren's technology adapts to each user's unique physiology and lifestyle. The AI coach can:
Adjust nutrition targets based on recent body scans and activity levels
Send context-aware prompts (suggesting a protein snack before an evening workout or a recovery day based on stress indicators)
Integrate with Snap Fitness class schedules to recommend specific sessions based on member goals
"Members are shocked when they see how much progress they’re actually making," said Jason Moore, CEO of Spren. "Every day we hear how people were spinning their wheels with just a scale or generic nutrition tracking. Once they get real-time feedback from actual body composition changes, everything clicks."
Benefits for Franchise Owners
For Snap Fitness franchisees, the integration offers measurable business impact:
Increased retention: Members using Spren visit the gym up to 3x more than average
Smart upselling: The AI identifies when members might benefit from personal training sessions or specific classes
Operational insights: Anonymized usage data helps owners understand member behavior and optimize offerings

Practical Application
The system works seamlessly in everyday situations. Peat shared his own experience: "I was grocery shopping and wasn't sure about the protein content in a cut of meat. I texted the AI coach and got an instant breakdown of calories and macros. That's the kind of practical support our members need, and Spren makes it available 24/7."
Availability and Pricing
The Spren integration is launching now at select Snap Fitness locations and rolling out globally throughout the summer. Members will receive a 7-day free trial, with subscription options available for continued access through the Snap Fitness app.
