Here’s some great reasons all of us, including yours truly, should be exercising more:
- Relieve stress
- Lose weight
- Live longer
- Look good
- Meet a fitness goal
- Release endorphins
- Get paid
Yep, you heard correctly, now you can get paid to work out, thanks to a new IPhone App GymPact. Check out how GymPact works.
According to the reviews and comments, the app seems legitimate. I tried it out without putting any money down this past week, only to find myself completing two total workouts. It was easy to check in and confirm a work out is completed. However, I found myself even less motivated because nothing was on the line. Except my health, I guess.
So this week, I’ll put my money where my muscles should be. I wagered $10 that I will work out at least four times this week at the Gaston YMCA. Yes, I know I can probably cheat since I work at the Y, but then I’ll have to go back to using my Catholic Confession App again.
Update October 28, 2012
Six weeks into using the GymPact app, I must say it’s legit. Though I will be unable to retire off my earnings, my goals were met every week. Regardless of my other commitments, preference for laying in bed, or desire to go home instead of work out at the Y, my incentive to not lose any $$’s and, even earn a few, kept me on pace and most importantly, accountable. I give two thumbs up.
