Many fitness enthusiasts spend a lot of time researching various topics in the hope that it will take them to the next level. Which workout methods are best? What is the latest research saying on peptides? How can I recover faster?
It can take a lot of time to consume all the information available from the world’s leading experts on those topics. It would be nice if they could all sit in one room so you could learn from them directly or even ask them questions.
Olympia University 2026 invites you
That’s exactly what will happen at the 2026 Olympia World Fitness Expo. Once a year, many of the biggest names and most established leaders in the health and fitness world gather in Las Vegas to attend Olympia University, and it’s made possible by dominate your game.
Dr. Michael Palmieri is the Research Director of DYG and has been the mastermind behind Olympia University every year. He will also deliver the keynote address this year. Olympia University may be considered the crown jewel of Olympia Weekend, and we encourage those visiting Las Vegas on September 26 and 27 to see why.
“Last year was the best turnout we’ve had since we started doing this,” Palmieri shared. He also revealed that it wasn’t just normal fitness-minded people coming to listen to the experts.
“About a third of our attendees were physicians, including physicians, physical therapists, nurse practitioners and chiropractors.”
There was also a VIP experience at 2025 that many people took advantage of, which received many positive reviews. Palmieri is optimistic that 2026 will be even better because of all the value that comes with being a VIP, including full access to the Olympia World Fitness Expo.
“The VIP package includes guaranteed seating, meet-and-greet, photo opportunities and CEUs. It all comes with a personalized name badge, commemorative bag and a full weekend pass to the Olympia Expo.”
Who’s who in health?
The experts and leaders attending Olympia University already resemble a ‘Who’s Who’ of the fitness industry, with more names likely to be added. Experts are grouped into panels and participate in fireside chats with attendees, giving them the opportunity to learn from them directly and even ask questions. Last year, sessions were held in both their special room and on the expo stage at the Las Vegas Convention Center. The knowledge that was being shared enthralled the audience throughout the weekend and will surely do the same this year.
To date, the confirmed list of speakers who will be part of Olympia University is as follows:
- Rick Collins: Lawyers and Legal Experts

The Olympia World Fitness Expo will feature a number of events that will surely create long-lasting memories for those attending. You’ve definitely seen many major supplement brands distributing samples as well as swag. As cool as it may be, sitting in on these conversations at Olympia University will help those attending the holiday more: knowledge they can use to improve themselves and their quality of life long after the free supplement samples are over. Palmieri emphasized the rarity that comes with the opportunity to learn from so many experts at once.
“It’s absolutely ridiculous,” Palmieri said, laughing. “The level of education and real-world application that these guys bring to the table is unmatched. Some of these therapists charge $1,000 per consultation, and if you’re lucky it’s for a phone or Zoom. It’s in person, you get them all here, and you can ask them whatever you want.”
