Hit the ground running.

Make money as an entrepreneur working at home with your bodybuilding machines, exercise space, and professional training. 

Create Outdoor Workout Gym

You'll feel better and burn more calories in the great outdoors than in a stiffling old, smelly gym. 

  

Lift some weights and teach others to do the same thing.  Set up a gym outside.  Cover with a tarp after use to protect your equipment from the elements.

 

Create hiking trails with recycled crushed rubber, create workout stations along your hiking trail.  Invite friends and neighbors over and charge a fee for your time and the upkeep of your exercise park. 

Create an obstacle course: run through tires, balance on 2 x 6's, crawl under a bridge, crawl through a plastic tunnel, climb over a wall, swing on some knotted ropes. 

Create a Business to Prevent Osteoporosis

All women from teens on up must lift weights to build large bones.  Teens can especially do this to prevent problems later in life. Make speeches, promote your business, promote healthy bones, find your customers in your audience.

Get Certified as a Professional Trainer

If you can do it, someone will want you to show them how on a one-on-one basis. You must know more than body building.  You must know people skills.  Be certain that you get all the necessary training and certifications.

Promote Pets and Owners Weekend

Make your activites pet friendly.  Charge extra and set the rules.  Make your place really special to attract owners to your a wonderful place for their pets to play and exercise. Research shows you should include your pets in your exercise program.

 How to find Customers

Advertise in local newspapers and neighborhood newsletters about your exercise park.  Let doctors know so they can tell their patients. Tell day care centers so that they can offer this activity to parents as an outing every week.  Day care and pre schools can bring their kids to start a healthy lifestyle early.  Businesses want their people healthy so as to keep health care costs down.   Notify businesses of your hours of operation.  Working folks will want to exercise before or after work. Notify schools, the police department, and churches. 

Tack notices on bullentin boards around town.  Leave flyers with businesses so customers can pick one up at the cash register.
