Wondered if this was actually real since I saw the post and realized what community it was posted under, haha:

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/bus-ticket-20-squats/

Mostly true

In Cluj-Napoca, Romania, a so-called "health ticket" was introduced that allowed individuals to use public transportation for free by completing 20 squats. However, the organizers only implemented it in one city for a limited time. As of this writing, it's unknown if the program will resume at a future date.

It's too bad it was only kind of a social experiment vs a real government-sponsored health campaign that was still ongoing. I think it's a pretty great idea. However, I can also see it getting some negative backlash if the government funded it since those with certain disabilities wouldn't be able to utilize it. I think it'd be easy enough to incorporate a variety of healthy exercises that are more accessible to get around that aspect, though.

I would think people with disabilities prohibiting them from performing such an activity would also be given regularly free or discounted passes anyway. Even most places in the US will even do this.

[–] doingthestuff@lemy.lol 12 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Most places in the US don't have any public transport to offer a discount on.

Variety of exercises

Yes but how many help you see more great asses?

how many percent, do you think, was this the inventor's motivation?

I have no idea, but at least like twenty?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 9 points 1 day ago

how do they not already provide free transport or at least discount for people with disabilities?
