Hunter's comment

This one gave me a real chuckle...

"Dat desk job bod..." though haha!

OK, there's a specific type of person whos only motivated by harassment and heckling, and if you're that person this is totally your app. Not only is this app snarky as hell, there are daily challenges..but with a twist.

If you fail to complete the challenge you'll be publically shamed by way of an auto-tweet from your account. If you want to save yourself the embarassment, the only way to skip a challenge is to do what they call "bribing the cake" which means there's an actual financial cost "in-app purchase" to skipping your challenge... damn that's kinda rough, but if you really need a kick in the pants to get up and moving it just might work!

This is hilarious! I love the idea of a snarky fitness app although I don't think I'd ever be willing to pay real money to skip an app based challenge.

There's another company that does something similar to promote weight loss. I don't remember the name of the company, but basically they bet against you on your weight loss goals. If you make it, you win big, but if not, they keep all the money you've already bet. Good stuff!

I wonder if we could use steem in a similar way. I know some of the crypto currencies can involve contracts, like ethereum. I don't know how all that works, but I bet people who know about stuff like that could set up automatic payouts for meeting certain goals along with automatic payments for not meeting them.
