This Friday I was out with some friends. We started at a beer place, drank some, had dinner and then went to the sugarhouse to play poker.

Then we came up with the idea of a:

Workout Challenge

All of us want to be a little more healthy and work out a bit more. And for me this always requires a bit of a kick. So we decided on the following terms

  • Everyone has to workout at least 10 times a month. This allows for maybe a week of sickness or vacation but generally puts us into having to workout 2-3 times a week
  • A workout is at least 30 minutes of real activity. Driving the bike to work does not count.
  • Every workout will be documented via a post here on steem
  • If we fall short for whatever reasons we owe the other persons $500
  • This means we may potentially lose $1000 a month since there are 3 people involved
  • Since we are already in the first week of May, this month only requires 6 workouts

The other two gamblers that are part of this challenge are @henryvan and @sreitman. These are both new users that have never used steem before.

I am stoked, as now I have 1000 reasons every month to go to the gym, besides the one that should have been enough all along.

Sort:  

This is really good ..no body is going to miss workout after this challenge...otherwise it will be very costly for him..we should workout atleast 3 days in a week ..You may also feel better about your appearance and yourself when you exercise regularly.... which can boost your confidence and improve your self-esteem..

Sounds like a great challenge :) I love poker how did you go?

Instead of the bike, I drive the car to work: does it count, @knircky? ;) LOL

It's a very good challenge, guys: I'll follow you, @henryvan and @sreitman!

That's a massive penalty for missing the gym; if married the explanation to the SO may be tricky to do

But of course it's not a problem if all the criteria are met

It'd be cool if there was a habit encouraging bot or person, though, to reward habit keeping by upvoting the habit tracking logs but that takes work to make sure no cheating happened

great, what a good initiative!

It is an amazing article for keeping anybody to fit for life time. Tips are also potential.

Wow. That’s quite a challenge you definitely don’t want to lose. Big pool if somebody fails. Wishing the three of you some willpower
