There are five mechanics that best make an exercise a game. Originally, I had in mind different names for these mechanics than what I’ve written, but since my purpose is to get you to recall them later, and mnemonics are a popular game for recall, I forced them to all start with an “R” so you’d remember better. Ready?
Essentially, the pace of your exercise should either be rapid or random. The goal should be to have a role, to have a rival, or to have a reward.
