The main criticism I got from my last elevator pitch is that "so many people use cardio equipment everyday." That made me realize how uneducated the general population is on fitness. If all you do for your health is get on an elliptical, treadmill, or stairstepper for 30min to an hour you are not doing that much for your health. Long slow cardio, while better than sitting on the couch, is one of the worst things you can do to get into shape. Things like taking little rest in between exercises while lifting, no more than 90 seconds, or taking no rest with circuit style training are much more effective and efficient. To help with those concerns I came up with the idea of a simple website to have some basic information are fitness. This website would have a few videos and some articles to show that you do not absolutely need those cardio machines. Another thing is I changed it from zero cardio equipment to no big cardio equipment. The reason behind this is there are many bikes and rowers that are self powered using the motion of the machine to power the machine itself so in terms of cutting electricity cost having those machines would not have any effect. Bikes and rowers are also much simpler machines mechanically and do not break nearly as often as the big treadmills and ellipticals. At my gym there is always at least one treadmill and elliptical that is broken or needs maintenance.
I think that you did a good job in your presentation. I like the fact you used some of the suggestions from previous pitches and applied it to this one, specifically the cardio machines. I think that using natural light will be an effective way to cut costs as well. Here is a link to my blog if you want to look at it. http://wjkms.blogspot.com/2016/03/elevator-pitch-no-3.html
Hey Josh! What I like most about your pitch (and also the written portion of your post), is that you seem very credible. I can tell that you're actually knowledgeable about this topic, which I think will win over the majority of your audience. Besides that, you're pretty engaged with the camera and your voice is clear. Something to improve on, possibly just work on creating memorable phrases, and emphasize that with your tone of voice and gestures.

Great Pitch! You did a good job applying the suggestions from previous pitches.Even though I don't know a lot about exercise equipment, after listening/reading your pitch I know so much more, especially about cardio. It is great that you know so much about this topic because it really helps you sell it. You should check out my blog, theyact.blogspot.com
I think you did great on your pitch and proved something great about yourself and people. People think they know it all when they really don't. Its obvious you've done your research and that gives you an edge and a purpose for selling. It's good to hear that because it proves why they should be listening to you in the first place. Teach people something and they will be happy to buy.
