This study is looking at whether offering money can encourage adults to exercise more at the YMCA. Researchers will test different amounts of money as incentives for people who are already YMCA members, or are willing to become members. You could earn up to $100 or $200 by attending at least 50 YMCA sessions over a 6-month period, with two chances to earn the incentive. The main goal is to see if these incentives lead to more YMCA visits. This study is currently unclear about its recruitment status and aims to enroll 330 participants.
