3 weeks ago | nerdfitness.com | Matt Myers

Have you downloaded your free Nerd Fitness Starter Guide yet? I put it together a few months ago, and it’s one of my favorite things we’ve created.I wrote this guide to answer one question I hear all the time:“There’s so much conflicting information out there.

When your body won’t cooperate

1 month ago | nerdfitness.com | Matt Myers

I’ve dealt with back pain for over 20 years. It started back in high school—warming up for a soccer match, everything felt fine… and then *SNAP*, my back seized up. I had no idea what had happened. All I knew was: it hurt, I could barely move, and I was scared. That moment started a lifelong journey of learning about fitness, mobility, injury prevention—and also, learning how to cope when you realize that not everything is within your control. I learned how to train better. I ate a nutritious diet.

3 Lessons from Coaching Thousands of Nerds

1 month ago | nerdfitness.com | Matt Myers

Hey there,Coach Matt Myers from Team Nerd Fitness here!While Steve is writing his Monday newsletter with stories to help you level up your life in general, he asked me to provide more specific guidance on health and fitness. I’ve been doing this fitness thing for nearly as long as Steve has been writing his newsletter. (In fact, I emailed Steve back in 2010 and we’ve been friends ever since – and now coworkers for 8 years!)For 15 years, I’ve had the privilege of coaching a lot of people.
The courage to listen to the lesson life is teaching you?

Mar 3, 2025 | nerdfitness.com | Steve Kamb

I’ve been trying to do a few things differently in 2025. Specifically, moving towards moments or things that make me uncomfortable. (I don’t mean “times when I am in physical danger,” of course.)But rather, I’m going to run toward the things that my brain tells me, “This is uncomfortable, I don’t like this, avoid it at all costs.”The email I’m afraid to open. The conversation I’m afraid to have. The question I’m afraid to ask. The ability to be alone with my thoughts (yikes).
Eating a Plant-Based Diet: Safely Going Vegan

Feb 17, 2025 | nerdfitness.com | Steve Kamb

So you’re interested in eating only plants, eh? Well, you’ve come to the right place to learn all about it. I’ve seen many people over the years have success with a Plant-Based Diet. Truth be told though, I’ve seen many people also struggle with it too. (After all, donuts are “plant-based” and pizza just got declared “a vegetable”). There is definitely a right way and a wrong way to embark on eliminating animal products from your diet.

On December 19th, 2001, The Fellowship of the Ring hit theaters and nerd culture was forever changed. If you’re like me, you associate these movies with the holidays and are about to rewatch all three films (extended editions obviously). I was rewatching the Fellowship recently, and I had a funny thought.
Don’t look back in anger

Jan 7, 2025 | nerdfitness.com | Steve Kamb

2024 is drawing to a close, so I wanted to hit you with one final newsletter before the chaos of 2025 kicks off. It’s that time of year where our brains will almost automatically look back on the past year. What went right, what went wrong. What we accomplished, what we failed to follow through on. If you’re anything like me, it’s easy to overindex on the “what went wrong” part, and feel all sorts of negative emotions around those things.
Growth over Comfort

Stephen Wilson Jr. was a scientist working for Mars, Inc. (Yeah, the Candy company). One day, his boss pulled him into an office and said something that changed his life:“Stephen, you’re about to get promoted.”Normally a cause for celebration, this was instead meant as a warning by his boss. In a past life, Stephen had been a guitarist in a small indie rock band. He also spent his evenings writing songs. His boss knew Stephen was a damn good songwriter, and where he really belonged.
