Are your clients giving you excuses about not being able to exercise this summer? Vacations, kids at home etc.? Give them this 10 min equipment free workout to do when they aren’t working with you. No more room for excuses!
Complete each of these 3 exercises for one minute each with a 30 second rest at the end of each of the 3 exercises. Then do it again 2 more times for a total of 10 minutes. Remember to take a few minutes to warm-up and cool-down. We can all commit to 10 minutes to focus on our health and fitness. And if you focus for 10 minutes, you’ll be surprised at what a fabulous workout it can be! Follow along with this series and you’ll get a number of 10 minute QuickFix options so that you can mix it up and do a different set each time!
10 Minute Equipment Free Workout:
Warmup first.
Skipping
Imagine you are holding a skipping rope and skip for 1 minute. Bonus if you complete with an actual skipping rope! Feel free to keep it low impact and instead of jumping, just walk your feet quickly on the spot while moving your arms as if you are holding a jump rope.

All Fours Knee Drops
Position yourself on your hands and knees with your hands underneath your shoulders and your knees under your hips. Keep your spine elongated and your core strong as you slowly lift and lower your knees a few inches. This can be a quad burner! Continue for 1 minute but feel free to take breaks as needed.
Breast Stroke
Lie on your stomach and keep your abdominal muscles contracted throughout the entire exercise as you slowly lift your chest up off the floor while mimicking a breast stroke (reach forward with your arms and pull towards the side). Focus on elongating the spine versus lifting high and do not force your range of motion. Continue for 1 minute. Feel free to take breaks as needed or do just one arm at a time while supporting with the other arm.
30 second recovery and then complete 2 more times for 10 minutes total full body workout
Go ahead and share with your clients!
Yours in Health, Fitness & Business

BUSINESS OF PERSONAL TRAINING SYSTEM
Hey did you know that I wrote the ONLY complete training business system designed to help you run a million dollar personal training business?! You can have this same business system that will help you work SMARTER and generate HUGE profits like we do here at Northwest Personal Training. The fee to purchase the Business of Personal Training System can be made up within 1 month of increased PT sales and there are NO recurring franchise or licensing fees. A comparable business system in other industries would require an initial investment of tens of thousands of dollars.
