Inspiration
and motivation.
So I like
looking at different information sources, both for knowledge, motivation and
inspirational purposes, and I thought I might as well gather some information
about some of the stuff I find.
So I’ll
start with the latest thing I randomly found, while googeling for “fun things
to do while running” after some pages / redirection etc I ended up finding
something that is called Nerdfitness.com and landed at the page: How to become
a superhero in 4 easy steps (http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2010/08/26/how-to-become-a-superhero-in-4-easy-steps/)
After
reading that fun little thing I began to investigating the site to figure out
what it was all about
The site
sets out to use general nerdy stuff, games, movies etc, and try to make
workouts and reference it in most blogs / articles. The site has several blogs
/ articles about everything from Training, Healthy eating, inspiration and
motivation, but what really caught my interest is their “Rebel Army” + the 6
Week challenges.
The Rebel army is the users on the site people who want to
take part in their community, where you as in an RPG can make your own character
to describe yourself, and leveling up your character and his stats from doing
the 6 week challenges.
The 6 Week challenges are challenges you pose yourself for
the next 6 weeks, which can wary from training / health to none health related
life goals as well.
As you
complete challenges you can join a guild, these guilds are focused on specific aspects
of training, wheatear you want to be doing more endurance oriented training,
martial arts, or whatever kind of training you prefer, again kept in the RPG
universe.
This site
is very much carried by trying to have a sense of community and cooperating
with others sharing experiences, while having similar(esk) hobbies (being the
nerdy theme.
I have set
up my first challenge (just to try it out see how it is going to work out get a
feel for how active the actual community is, you can find the challenge here: http://rebellion.nerdfitness.com/index.php?/topic/45254-challenge-1-preparing-for-the-journey/
I tried to keep the text a bit nerdy to keep
with the theme of the site.
