This market is about whether I will exercise every day for a week, starting today, 13 March 2025, and ending on 19 March 2025. It serves as a commitment device to help me get back into a fitness routine. I've been lazy and low energy lately.

Rules:

  • I must complete at least one form of exercise every day during the timeframe of this market. Acceptable forms of exercise include, but are not limited to:

    • Jogging

    • Taking a walk (>45 minutes)

    • Playing disc golf

  • I must go to the gym at least once.

  • No exemptions: If I fail to exercise for any reason, this market will be resolved NO.

Additional Notes:

  • I will not bet on this market.

  • Update 2025-03-19 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Gym Requirement Clarification:

    • The gym visit will only count if the creator actually trains during that visit.

    • Merely being present at the gym (e.g., if not training) will not satisfy the gym requirement.

@traders I didn't train at the gym so far. Went there today, but forgot my towel. The weather is nice so I took a walk instead. My motivation to go to the gym again today is zero.

filled a Ṁ74 YES at 50% order

@redcat That leaves for interesting interpretation. You are exersicing, and you did technically go to a gym.

sold Ṁ35 NO

@redcat Does this mean that you believe you are on track for a YES? or a NO?

@Quroe Yes, I was wondering about that as well. Intuitively, I would say that "going to the gym" in this context means that I also train there. That's what I meant and that's how I'm going to resolve the market.

Technically/semantically you're right, you can also interpret it that way.

@redcat I am not trying to angle shoot, I'm just confused about where you stand. 😅

I have dropped my position, waiting until I fully grasp what's going on.

@Quroe What I mean is: this market is about exercising every day. One rule was that I had to go to the gym on at least one of the days. What I meant by that is: I go there to fulfil the basic requirement (to exercise once a day), by exercising at the gym. I'll resolve the market accordingly.

I hope you'll find this fair and reasonable.

bought Ṁ10 NO

@redcat you should order Uber eats and play the new monster hunter game instead

@redcat why was going to the gym a requirement at all if the market is meant to be about exercise which in this case happened without the gym?

@TheAllMemeingEye I thought since I have a gym membership, I should go too. I also tend to train there more intensively. But you're right. I think it makes more sense not to restrict myself unnecessarily in this case.
