blog messages

The following includes a two sided conversation message appealing to the observers central route processing. Then a series of animations designed to appeal to peripheral route processing to promote exercise. Then a fear inducing message in order to really make people intimidated by the idea of not adopting the recommended behavior.

Two sided argument for exercise

"You should exercise more"
"Yea but I get so tired and bored"
"Well even though you get tired or bored it will improve your physical health and help you live longer in the future, plus there are always new and fun ways to exercise being invented every day"

Simple message with distractors.

For this message I have left a link to a website with many animations. This is to achieve the objective of peripheral route processing in order to get the message across to keep exercising

Fear inducing message

The easiest thing in the world to do is nothing. Just sitting on the couch wasting daylight is something we're all capable of. And as you sit there watching spongebob, eating your cheetos, your hearts arteries are getting more and more clogged with the garbage you put in your system. And these clogged arteries will more than likely stop your heart one day. How do you avoid this? By getting up off your rump and going for a walk or a swim or a game of kick ball, anything!!! Just keep daily exercise a part of your life in order to avoid a tragic fate.
