ErinMarie 186 Posted February 18, 2012 Has anyone seen or visited nerdfitness.com? I found it last week and it's a great website! It's very inspiring and focuses on the Paleo diet (back to basics, all natural, organic meats, fruits, veggies, nuts, etc) and strength training! This guy is really motivating and inspiring! I highly suggest you check it out. I plan on looking into strength training today at my gym! I never really thought about doing it until I did some research and seems like the best way to lose weight and keep strong muscles! I'm hoping it will help tone up my flab before it gets too bad! I'll update everyone on what I find out at my gym! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Regnu 9 Posted February 18, 2012 I've heard of the Paleo diet, some people I work with are trying to follow that diet. I'll have to look at the website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NWgirl 574 Posted February 19, 2012 I tried following the paleo diet for awhile last year, but it turned out too expensive and meal planning oriented for me. I also found it confusing because the book I purchased talked about one way of eating, but the people on the forums practiced another. If you can sustain the eating, I am sure it would work. It made sense to me based on the biological development of our bodies... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ErinMarie 186 Posted April 14, 2012 Hello everyone! I've finally gotten off my ass and started my new NerdFitness-based workout routine! I've only worked out twice so far but I'm feeling good! I've decided to suck it up and start working out before work and I'm really enjoying it! I'm hoping to stick to this routine MWF every week! Here is what I'm doing: Walking intervals 15 mins Planks 30 seconds (right now it's only 15!) Bench press 10 lbs 10 reps Squats 10 reps Overhead press 10lbs 10 reps Deadllift 6 lb bar 10 reps (still practicing my form before I do real weight on this) Repeat 3-4 times (right now I can only do 2 sets!) I'm doing my measurements tomorrow and I will try to keep everyone updated as time goes on! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
