The Starbucks Drive-Thru Paradigm

Why do we use the drive-thru when it’s better to make coffee at home?

Drive through coffee shops are the pinnacle of convenience. We can have the exact same product cheaper, easier, and more efficiently at home.

And yet. We’ll spend our time sitting in our cars in lines to get a Starbucks coffee because…

⚡ It’s convenient….the MOST convenient. ⚡

Convenience wins against price, efficiency, competition, and a superior product almost every time.

Knowing this, we can work to stack the odds in our favor to shift the paradigm and get fitter, healthier, and leaner.

As the drive-thru paradigm highlights, if we can increase the convenience of training and diet behaviors, we’re likely to do them simply because we’d have to work harder to avoid them.

Jim’s insoles

Jim is a builtXyou client who was struggling to meet his daily activity target.

At the office, he wears hard soled work shoes that make his feet ache, which makes sitting down and getting his lunch delivered convenient. 

Jim spent $19.00 on new insoles and the next day stood at his desk more, took walks around the office, took the stairs to get lunch, and walked home instead.

This tiny shift in convenience almost tripled his daily movement.

Be specific with the things you make convenient in your life. Look for ways to make health and fitness behaviors more convenient while making it inconvenient to skip the gym and buy take out and you’ll stack the odds in your favor.
