Lazy Jar was an app I built to help me commit to working out every week. It holds me accountable for quantifiable fitness goals that I commit to each week. It does this via the Fitbit. I pay a penalty any week I fail.

We are working v2 of Lazy Jar. As controversial as our app is, we got enough positive feedback from users and a lot of interests from non-Fitbit owners. So we're working on a new version that can support Apple Watch owners and Android Wear owners as well.

We should begin testing in a couple months. Hopefully July latest it should be available.
