AVANT, the premium private fitness and wellness club, and Health In A Box today announced a partnership that brings physician-led preventive health programs to AVANT members beginning in mid-September.
Members receive biomarker testing, clinical interpretation, and a personalized health action plan built with a clinical team of physicians and naturopathic doctors. Clinical review and follow-up are delivered virtually by licensed clinicians. AVANT’s personal trainers can then build a member’s training around what their plan calls for, so the clinical work and the training move together through the year. Health coaching and a member app powered by Health In A Box’s MelodyAI™, hold the results, the plan, and day-to-day progress in one place.
AVANT is the first premium Canadian fitness club to offer members a preventive health program delivered by an integrated team of physicians and naturopathic doctors.
What separates these programs is the team behind them. Physicians and naturopathic doctors working together, around how a member trains. The programs are built around each member’s metabolic, hormonal and nutrient markers alongside their fitness targets. Results are read against their own biology and translated into what they mean for how a member feels, recovers and performs.
“AVANT’s training is science backed. Now their members’ health is too. Measurement has never been the hard part. Knowing what to test and acting on what the results show month after month, is. The goal is not getting to normal. It is getting to optimal. That is what peak performance and healthstyle really mean.”
Two programs have been designed exclusively for AVANT members who want to know their numbers and act on them. AVANT Thrive is built around a foundational biomarker panel, with review and follow-up led by a naturopathic doctor. AVANT Proactive is the deeper program, with advanced testing, quarterly retesting, and review led by a physician and a naturopathic doctor together. Both programs run alongside an AVANT membership, so the clinical work and the training move together.
Health In A Box certification is now part of the AVANT training standard. Their trainers complete the member program themselves, so they can speak from personal experience.
“AVANT is performance driven, where culture and community intersect. We are so much more than just a private members only health club. Members get personalized support, science backed results, an incredible fitness experience, and unreasonable hospitality. Hospitality is knowing what someone needs before they ask. Our members were asking about their health, so we brought in a clinical team qualified to answer them.”
Both programs open exclusively to AVANT members in mid-September.
