ISSA x REIGN Total Body Fuel: Five Years of Empowering Future Fitness Leaders

Scholarship Expanded to Offer Further Opportunities to Aspiring Instructors

PHOENIX, Ariz. (August 7, 2024) - The International Sports Sciences Association (ISSA), the global leader in online fitness and wellness education, and REIGN Total Body Fuel, the ultimate performance beverage created by Monster Energy, are celebrating five years of ISSA x REIGN Scholarship Program in 2024. To support the career growth of aspiring fitness professionals, ISSA and REIGN have once again joined forces to award ISSA Master Trainer Scholarships and Ambassador opportunities to hand-selected recipients. Since its launch in 2020, this program has helped more than 100 individuals achieve ISSA Master Trainer certifications, empowering them to inspire others towards healthier lifestyles.

“Over the past five years, our partnership with REIGN has been transformative, empowering more than 100 students to pursue their dreams in fitness education through the ISSA Master Trainer Scholarships,” explains Kurt Mangum II, ISSA’s VP of Strategic Partnerships. “This milestone underscores our commitment to expanding access to quality fitness education and fostering the next generation of health and wellness leaders."

Historically, ISSA x REIGN scholarships have been awarded to 25 individuals annually; however, to celebrate year five of the partnership, an additional five scholarships will be awarded, bringing the total to 30 scholarships in 2024. ISSA's Master Trainer Program fully equips graduates with a comprehensive foundation of the science and practice of personal training, fitness nutrition, and fitness programming. Scholarship winners also have the opportunity to join ISSA and REIGN Ambassador Programs to further develop their careers.

“This scholarship has given me the tools to take training to new levels for my clients, as well as for myself,” said Nadine Lee, 2020 ISSA x REIGN scholarship recipient. “As a Master Trainer, I've completed my personal training certification, as well as specializations in nutrition and transformation. The flexibility and supportive nature of this program has given someone like me, a mom too with a separate career, a chance to pursue my passions in fitness.”

Scholarship registration opens Monday, August 12, 2024, and will close Thursday, August 22, 2024. The first 15 winners will be selected on August 27, 2024. The second application window will open in Q4, with dates to be announced in September, and another 15 winners will be selected before the end of the year. ISSA and REIGN are looking for applicants with a passion for the fitness industry and who are dedicated to improving the health and wellness of their communities.

“REIGN Total Body Fuel consumers are passionate fitness enthusiasts, and our partnership with ISSA over the last five years has been immensely rewarding,” said Dan McHugh, Monster Energy Global CMO. “Supporting the ISSA Master Trainer Scholarships aligns perfectly with our commitment to empowering individuals in their fitness journeys, reinforcing our brand's dedication to enhancing performance and healthy living within our community.”
