The first is consistent persistence, where successful individuals choose a plan, stick with it, and make adjustments along the way, focusing on the process rather than immediate results. The second reason is viewing setbacks as steps forward, learning from each failure and trying new methods instead of giving up. Finally, successful people put on their "hard hats" and work consistently without excuses, understanding that there will be good and bad days. These traits are common in successful Nerd Fitness Rebels, who demonstrate dedication, adaptability, and resilience in their fitness journeys.

Imagine leveling your life up video game style. Well, good news - you don't have to imagine it because Steve Kamb has created it. Steve is the nerd who founded NerdFitness.com to help average folks, nerds, and misfits level up their lives. White working a job he hated, Steve started NerdFittness as a way to bring a little joy into his life and share what he's learned about fitness as a nerd who didn't make the team and, ok, also to help people avoid the same mistakes he made when he started his own journey. Connect with Steve on Threads and Instagram, or his website. Find NerdFitness here. EPISODE TAKEAWAYS What is “NerdFitness?” Steve has always enjoyed working out but was cut from his high school basketball team even though his brother was the team captain. Turns out nutrition is more important than anything else when it comes to  Fitness.” Since Steve truly hated his door-to-door sales job he was willing to learn, try new things, and take a chance on a wild new business. Strict routines simply are not for everyone. It's okay to skip a day and then go back to something that works for you. If your routine makes you want to give up, try something different. After a visit with college friends and 14 months in a job he hated, Steve decided to pick up and move to Atlanta.  In Atlanta, he started working for a company that does floating music festivals. This was an awesome sales and marketing job. Steve was given a lot of free reign to explore and try new things in his new role and it laid a beautiful foundation for what would become Nerd Fitness. The “chance” that really changed things was when Steve realized he could do things that he enjoyed and had fun with. After leaving his full-time job and going all in on Nerd Fitness Steve decided to be a digital nomad for a year. Early on in the business, Google changed its algorithm and, suddenly, Steve's blog posts went from 100 views a month to 150,000 a month! Steve built his business bit by bit. He just kept showing up and doing the thing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
