My guess for a formula for an environment that would make it more likely that people work out. Let’s engineer incentives backwards from there.

</aside>

Probability of doing a workout =

you have no choice, cause your personal trainer will ring and enter your house at a set time

• someone pays you to do a workout

• you organise the (free or paid) workout

• you pay someone if you don’t do it

• you have a trauma that people disrespected you when you were not fit

• days since someone made a joke about your body/weight

• days since your love/crush rejected you and hooked up with someone hotter

• you live in a van and need a shower at the gym afterwards anyway

• you’re used to workouts & something feels off if you don’t get endorphins-high every few days

• you just want to chat with certain people after the workout

• you made a plan with 1 or several people to do it

• you have done a workout last week at exact that time, so you repeat

• you have some shade of health anxiety & can pre-feel how out of control you’ll feel being sick

• you can vividly pre-feel the nice sore muscles you’ll have in that tight jeans

• you know it will grow your butt and abs as a female animal

• you’re new in a place and that’s the easiest sport you can book flexibly

• you know where and when to do it
