> most people get trainers to help with motivation.

Assuming poor and rich people have exact same level of motivation, this alone is guaranteed to lead to poor people exercising less.

From own experience, exercising by myself do tend to lead to repetitive routine that plateau pretty fast and gets demotivating due to no progress. But I used app rather then trainer.

You don't need to make continual progress to get benefits from exercise. You just need to be active.

It gets super demotivating and boring then. It turns into something like washing dishes, except less interesting and takes more time. At which point, you start to think that you might have to do something useful with that time - like cleaning, spending time with kids or reading/relaxing.

And from what I observed, I am not special snowflake in that regard.
