Get Paid to Be Healthy

October 14, 2019 | fitness, health, motivation

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links, meaning when you sign up through my link, I make a small commission.

I often hear people say things like “well if I got paid to workout I would do it more often!” What if I told you that there IS a way you can? What if you could get paid for doing simple things like walking and writing healthy tweets and getting sleep. Um, yes please! Count me in!  I recently stumbled upon an article about an app called MyAchievement.com that allows you to connect different fitness trackers and social media such as FitBit and Twitter, and it gives you points for certain healthy things you do.

The points add up and turn into CASH. Yes, like money deposited into your PayPal account cash. Here is a screen shot to show you what I am talking about. This one shows the different activities I have done in the past two days to earn points, and I literally had to do nothing “extra” once I set everything up.

So yesterday I did normal things like tweeted a healthy tweet, weighed myself, went to sleep, and walked around (NOTE: I wish I slept 9 hours ha! My FitBit read “laying in bed watching the Bachelor” as actually sleeping. Oops!) and checked my points at the end of the day on MyAchievement.com I am literally making passive income for just doing my normal thang.

There are so many apps you can connect, like your Garmin, Apple health, Map my run, My fitness pal, FitBit, and Runkeeper (and lots more!) Connect your Twitter account to get points for tweeting health related things. It really is that easy.

You can also earn points for answering questions in the app and taking quick and easy surveys.

A few more details:

-You can earn up to 80 points a day for for tracked activity like running, biking, and walking.

-You can earn up to 6 points a day for posting healthy things on Twitter, or Foursquare.

-Points expire one year from the date in which they are earned

-Once you reach 10,000 points ($10) you can get paid! Holla!

QOTD: What apps would you connect? Ok, now go sign up, it’s free!

We originally got it as a solution for rainy or co We originally got it as a solution for rainy or cold days during the holidays, but it quickly became part of our weekly routine — especially for family game night or those super hot afternoons when going outside just isn’t an option.

What I love most? It gets us laughing, playing, and moving together. The games are active and designed with real child development principles in mind — which means I feel good about the screen time. And when she plays solo? I know she’s safe — no online strangers, just fun, movement, and confidence-building play.

Whether we’re all competing or she’s playing on her own, @nexplayground has become one of our favorite ways to stay active and connected as a family.
