New self imposed restriction; I can only scroll x while on the erg bike. Erg bike minutes are up 📈 My day job is about using behavioral econ to make you buy more things... on the upside I have built a highly effective toolkit that is powerful at making myself do things I don't want to do. I hate cardio. The solution? Temptation bundling. In 2014 a study was conducted where ~200 students were split into three groups, all with the same access to the college gym. Control: Given a Barns and noble voucher to purchase audiobooks of their choosing. Intermediate treatment: Given an iPod with four audiobooks they wanted and allowed to take the iPod home for the length of the study. Full treatment: Given an iPod with four audiobooks they wanted but only allowed to listen to the iPod at the gym, the iPod got locked in a locker.

I'm getting a treadmill this week and have been thinking of implementing something like this! My thought goes to mounting my phone or tablet and have some middleware app connect to the treadmill via Bluetooth to read the current speed, which is then used to control the playback speed of a queue of videos I'd want to watch! Surely something like this exists already 😆

I'm thinking that if it doesn't it sounds like a banger app idea 👀 Exercising to earn minutes that you spend on other apps on your phone.
