How about this pol?
Mandatory fitness for all citizens 12+.
Workout 5+ times a week. Save 50% on your tax return.
Workout 3 times a week. Save 25% on your tax return.
Workout 1-2 times a week. Save 10% on your tax return.
Don't work out at all? First offense 40 hours community service.
Second offense, $1500.00 fine which goes to healthcare and fitness programs. And 80 hours community service.
Third offense, felony. $10000.00 fine or minimum 30 days in prison.
Healthcare costs would plummet as the number of ham planets would basically go from 70% of people to under 5%. Nation would be stronk and proud. I don't see any negatives to enforced mandatory lifting.
(unless you physically can't for medical reasons).

would be struck down as a violation of pursuit of happiness.
also, completely unenforceable. what is a workout defined as?
Sounds awesome. I can't believe you come from leafville
Everything to say you're an unenployed and shitty personal trainer?
what the fuck kind of shitposting is this, it isn't even quality banter like Aussie shitposts.
This is just a post that is shit.
>>71959631
you could go with a private licensed trainer or government appointed.
your gym pass scans get logged on a nationwide system that tracks your workouts.
workout definition and rules would be sorted out and defined by professional doctors and trainers. but i suspect it would follow the typical model of a good balance of resistance/cardiovasuclar/stretching...
prioritization of personal happiness is one of the main reasons ameriplanets are as fat as they are. Not that i can talk shit canada is just as bad these days.
>>71959631
I have a perfect picture for the occasion.
>>71959781
negative.
im a systems analyst.
but i will admit im a gym douche, but /pol/ and /fit/ are my main boards.

How about this?
Stop buying the white jew powder and things that contain sweeteners. Basically fuck carbs.
Start eating according to LCHF.
Keep carbs below 20 grams until you reach your body's ideal weight, then you can increase it to 40 carbs just to have a bit of room to make the meals a bit more interesting.
Keep your chart, but define a minimum workout as 8 minutes of cardio. For a total minimum of 2 times per week. Lower the last tier to 40%, but you instead get priority on the job market.
The main thing training does for your body is stamina and increasing muscle mass (or just to keep them sharp and ready), everything else that fucks you up should and can be taken care of using the diet, including actual weight loss due to burning fat.

and finally, healthcare costs would not plummet, as everyone has to buy insurance. free market does not apply, so why would prices go down if you have a gun to your head that says you have to buy it?
would be a fucking pain in the ass to implement.
i'd say throw it in with mandatory military service so we get something out of it.

The whole "80-90% of your results come from diet and the rest for your workout" is complete and utter myth and one of the stupidest things propagated on the internet. Anyone who has worked out for more than 3 weeks consecutively should know this.
>>71959499
Try being self employed and not having time...
>>71960587
usa has the highest healthcare costs in the planet. the number one killer is heart disease which is usually caused from being a big fat fuck.
if everyone was forced to workout these numbers would drop drastically.
>>71960850
belgium you know as well as i do thats not good enough.
you make the time. you here posting on a japanese porn cartoon site as we speak. yet you don't have 45-60minutes to take care of your own health?

The "offenses" are a no go because punishment hasn't done shit for my country in ages. But the tax return discounts and other perks would be a great incentive to push fitness, I think.
As a society I believe we're way passed the point of doing good for goodness' sake, so rewards like these are a no brainer. And really it's just the same redpill formula we've all swallowed by now. People are checking out of traditional relationships due to unbalanced reward vs effort and risk. Same thing for fitness. I'm not a fatty (I'm actually under weight due to drugs which I'm working on), but most people in my country really don't give a fuck about being and staying in shape. Give us a financial incentive and I guarantee you all this fat acceptance bullshit will be gone in 5 years tops.
TL;DR it's sad but the truth is we're so babified right now that punishable offenses won't do much shit, but rewards and incentives might

as the swede said earlier, taxing sugar would be a much easier way. easier to implement, less red tape.
i know that you're a leaf, but you have to realize that the gubmint is not the moral authority, and the government has no authority to implement such a system
>>71961297
what about just the tax breaks then.
fatties can stay fat but they aint getting no 50% discount.
>>71962979
Yes, this. 1000+ club gets 60% discount. Doing x amount of marathons gets 70% discount. Etc.
Cut it out with this bullshit of getting fit to "feeeel good about yourself." Just give money rewards for achievements and watch the fat roll away.
decent idea but how much working out though? what are the parameters?
someone could just do like 5 pushups or crunches a day and that would technically count yet that'd accomplish absolutely nothing in terms of fitness

i climbed the stairs one story at work. thats 5 times a week. gib

What if you have a physical disability?
