- Just under half of that said they’re more excited by post-workout buzz than being tipsy
- The majority of Virginia also said they’d prefer to work out over drinking
- More than a quarter of all respondents said they have adopted healthier choices popularized by social media influencers
- 77% said even if there hadn’t been COVID restrictions, they still wouldn’t have a strong desire to go out partying
