Someone built a fitness app using the same psychological mechanics as gambling
This might work better than every normal fitness app 😭😭
You bet money on whether you’ll hit 10,000 steps today
If you fail, you lose your money
If you succeed, you split the money from everyone who didn’t
So disciplined people literally profit off lazy people
Most fitness apps try motivating you with streaks and notifications
This one motivates you with financial fear
Imagine realizing at 11:52pm you still need 1,700 more steps or you lose $30
Entire friend groups would be outside walking laps around their neighborhood before midnight trying not to lose their steppa challenge
It sounds stupid but this would probably motivate people better than any other fitness product
Would you use this yourself?
The European mind will never comprehend this:
Jets:
> Draft Sam Darnold replacing Geno Smith
Seahawks:
> Sign Geno Smith to back up Russell Wilson.
>> Geno Smith replaces Russell Wilson
>>> Sam Darnold replaces Geno Smith again.
Jets:
> Sign Geno Smith to replace Sam Darnold
>>> Sign Russell Wilson to back-up Geno Smith?
The real legacy of this Seahawks Super Bowl is not Sam Darnold's career comeback, it's John Schneider's masterclass
- Traded Russell Wilson when he was viewed as a top 5 QB & nailed the picks (Devon Witherspoon, Charles Cross)
- Canned the HOF coach who won him a SB and hired a 36 year old Defensive HC (youngest in the league)
- Traded Geno Smith and DK Metcalf to sign Sam Darnold & pave the way for JSN to emerge as OPOY
- Hit on FA's Demarcus Lawerence & Cooper Kupp
- Nailed trades for Ernest, Jones, Leonard Williams and Rasheed Shaheed
Of all the Sam Darnold plays this season, this 11-yard scramble that nobody in the media gives him credit for having in his arsenal and then getting up and going back to the huddle for the next play without showboating is probably my favorite.
First I thought “am I posting too much about this?”. And then “naahhhh… I’ve been saving this energy for 12 years.”💙💚
