A Posting For Personal Trainers ...


... Craig Ballantyne released his Bootcamp Workout Series today!

I've spoken with a few friends recently who are considering bootcamps as a means for generating an incremental revenue stream. The beauty of bootcamps is that they can be conducted in any outdoor space and require absolutely zero equipment.

Think about it -- people don't have the funds right now to be paying $50 + an hour for a personal trainer. The fact is, in this economic downturn many health clubs are experiencing a tougher than normal business environment and reporting low membership sales.

Bootcamps on the other hand are thriving. While they vary in cost, the average price of a bootcamp is around $20 per session, per participant. Bootcamp participants routinely report losing more weight and having more fun in boot camps than in traditional personal training programs.

This is because they are done in a group environment they push individual performances to levels beyond normal limitations.

A saavy personal trainer can more than re-coupe the cost of Craig's program in just one, 1-hour bootcamp!

The program includes 21-bootcamp workouts, which also makes this an excellent package if you are simply looking for new bodyweight workouts to do at home.

There is a $20 off introductory offer that ends on Monday, April 20th at 11:59pm, EST. That means that you can grab all 21 bodyweight workouts for $77.

For the Personal Trainers reading this posting, there is also a package that offers more detailed guidance in regards to generating bootcamp participants.

Here's a sample Turbulence Training Bootcamp Workout that comes with the package:

Warm-up (20 seconds per exercise) – 10 minutes
Jumping Jacks
Kneeling Pushup or Pushup
Cross Crawl
1-Leg Hip Extension (20 seconds per side)

    Hmm. Nice workout there. A bit heavy for starter, but for intermediate it's great, so I think It's worth to buy that book for 20$ and try those workouts! Great post!

    You make a good point Chriss and I should point out that the Bootcamp Workout posted is indeed an Intermediate workout!!

    Just an aside - the special offer is $20 off the regular price of $97. So, the cost of the 21-workouts is $77, not $20.

    With that said, 21-workouts for $77 breaks out to $3.67 per workout, which is really a terrific buy -- whether you're a personal trainer looking to start a bootcamp or simply someone looking for a complete, affordable at-home exercise solution!
