Let me introduce you to my newest app discovery, GymPact. Essentially if you register and go to the gym, you will make money!
Let me explain. Within GymPact you pledge how many times you are going to go to the gym each week and put a dollar amount towards that pledge. As you workout, check-in on the app to the gym you’re at (or use RunKeeper to log outdoor exercise). If you go to the gym the amount of times you pledged, you will owe no money but if you miss a gym visit, you will owe money. Once you meet your pact, you get a % of the money from everyone who did not meet their pledge.
The site better explains it, but to make a long story short, I’ve been using the app for 3 weeks, pledging to go to the gym 6 days per week and have so far made $9! Making $3 a week doesn’t seem like much, but it’s bonus money for doing what I already do, hitting the gym.
Let’s break it down, $3 a week can buy me:
- In one week, a cup of coffee
- In three weeks, a Lululemon headband
- In 47 weeks, this Lululemon Make a Break Jacket that I lust after…
It’s going to be a while dear jacket…
