In the latest update of his newsletter for Arnold’s Pump Club, Schwarzenegger revealed whether or not things would change if people were paid to go to the gym. He shared that researchers have found that a few extra bucks indeed makes one more consistent with their training routine. While they did try different methods like motivational posts on social media and positive feedback, none worked as well as paying to go to the gym did.

A few hours ago, Alexis Ohanian thanked Schwarzenegger for sharing the information with his readers. Urging others to subscribe to Arnie’s Pump Daily, Ohanian tweeted, “TIL! Thanks @Schwarzenegger (you must subscribe to his newsletter!)”

Furthermore, quoting the trick from the newsletter, he added, “Paying people the equivalent of $1.75 per workout boosted compliance. And offering the equivalent of 9 cents after a missed workout was the most effective way to get people back into the gym.”
