Kurzban explains that in an average 305 Fitness studio, 10 feet of distance means reducing classes to less than 25% of a normal class size. “There’s no break even in sight,” says Kurzban, who created the 305 workout concept.

“As a business, we cannot cover our usual expenses, plus increased cleaning costs, when we are operating with 25% of a normal class size,” she continues: “We’re not even looking at the 50% break even mark for awhile and we want to preemptively and strategically get ahead of that.”

This data is powerful,” she says. This is why Kurzban is betting on a revenue stream she’s been toying with since early 2020: “Our real big business is certification, so we’re focusing on certifying and empowering individuals in hopes that they can monetize their fitness credentials during this time.”
