    how, do we make it so that people want to get 
    of their ass and exercise?
We have to make it fun. Look at all the nerds (and I would definitely include myself as a nerd) who wouldn't dream of working out, but burned millions of calories on Wii Fit and Dance Dance Revolution.

I'm not saying it necessarily has to be a video game.

A lot of people would love sports if they had a local, easily accessible, and judgement-free chance to play them.

I think very few people have the mindset to do grueling, non-fun workouts on a regular and lifelong basis. And you know what? Nobody really should, either. There are so many fun ways to do it.
