Why it works

Each correction takes only seconds, so a single video holds several of them. A repeated cadence like Nope/Yup or 'don't do it like this' keeps people watching for the next swap.

Hook formulaIf you want [result], do this, not this

How to make it

  1. 1Show the wrong version with an ❌ or a warning line
  2. 2Cut straight to the right version
  3. 3Repeat the same rhythm for 3-4 swaps

What’s working in fitness this week

How this is measured

  • Every post is compared with its own account's usual reach, not with other accounts. "14x their usual" means the post got 14 times the median views of that account's recent posts.
  • TikTok videos and Instagram Reels are measured on views. Instagram carousels have no view count, so they are measured on likes against the account's usual likes, and say so.
  • A post makes the library at 2x its account's usual or more. A format is a repeatable move (what is said or shown, or how it is edited) that several accounts used in breakout posts. It is listed here once it worked for 3 or more different accounts.
  • Formats rank on how many accounts they worked for and how far above usual, damped so a fluke on one tiny account cannot outrank a format that worked for ten.
