The Workout Tip Jar — You Earned it!
Let’s face it, building a habit of regular exercise is not easy. Heck for some of us, it’s damn near impossible, but just because something is hard doesn’t mean we should give up. Tomorrow may be the day you build an exercise habit that finally sticks. As long as you keep trying, there’s a chance you’ll find what works for you.
Here’s a trick that may work for you. It’s called the Workout Tip Jar.
The concept of a Workout Tip Jar isn’t new, but with Tip Yourself it just got much easier and more powerful. The original concept involved a physical jar where you would put cash. Now with the Tip Yourself app, there’s no longer a problem of having cash available.
Here’s how it works. Each time you workout, tip yourself. How much is up to you. It could be $1, $2, or more. The key is to give yourself a tip and acknowledge that you exercised. The goal is 100 workouts.
No timeline, just 100. So if you miss a day or only exercise a couple days in one week, that’s fine. Each workout counts. The real fun is when you get to 100. The money in your Tip Jar is a reward for yourself.
Buy yourself some new workout clothes to compliment your new exercise habit, or treat yourself to a day at the spa to relax all those new muscles you gained. What you do with the cash is up to you, you earned it!
Many other workout plans involve strict daily or weekly goals. One miss and you’re off plan. That’s not the case with your Workout Tip Jar. There are no weekly or daily goals you have to hit. The only goal is 100 workouts. How or when you get there is up to you.
So what do you think? Are you going to start a workout tip jar today?
