I'd like to start exercising regularly. I'm in my early 30's and have Dysthymia, which has contributed to me doing almost no exercise in recent years. My physical fitness is at a very low level. However, I got a gym membership a month ago and have been to the gym five or six times since then. For this market, I keep the option of doing other workouts, besides going to the gym.
What do I count as an "equivalent workout"? A few examples:
Going for one or more walks (at least 90 minutes)
Cycling (at least 90 minutes)
Indoor Exercise Bike (at least 90 minutes)
Swimming
Playing disc golf + any other physical activity (I sometimes play with a colleague, but on it's ownit's not enough of a workout for me)
In case of physical illness: half the time/intensity counts (depending on severity), but if I get too sick to do a workout one week, this will resolve NO.
I'll give you regular updates about my progress. If I don't give an update for at least 2 months, a mod may resolve this market with NO.
I may bet on YES without limitations. However, I will not sell my shares early and will not bet on NO.

1.00@Quroe I am still on the way to achieving this goal. Lately I've been going to the gym less and have been taking long walks instead. I'm going to start my most ambitious sports market yet for October: exercise every day (minimum session= 60 minute walk).
It's going very well! In addition to my membership at McFit (basic gym for €12.50 per month), I have now taken out a second membership for two months at a fully air-conditioned premium gym with a swimming pool and sauna. I can now continue to work out even when it's hot outside. In the long term, I would like to work out at least every other day.
As I already mentioned in two of my other personal goals markets, I currently have the flu. I did a 30 minutes walk today and try to do more in the next few days.
