People do it all the time now and get no tax credit back. There are tons of people with gym memberships that aren't used at all, that join teams/classes they never end up showing up for. I can only imagine that the list will get longer if people think they could get money back for signing up.

Working out, being active sounds great when you are shelling out the bucks and dreaming of a six pack but when it is time to get off the couch after an 8 hour workday, American Idol and Grand Theft Auto often sound like a much better option.
