I suck at fitness

I am not a guru, I don’t have the ultimate secret to lifelong fitness and how to get abs.

I’m overweight, out of shape, never been athletic. But I consider myself an athlete. Because everyone is an athlete.

This site about getting really, really nerdy and excited about fitness.

Failing, learning, trying things, having setbacks, working hard, not giving up, having fun.

And trying to communicate things I’ve learned, or think I’ve learned, along the way.

Why the name?

• fight my own perfectionist tendencies
• relinquish any claim to authority
• a bit of fun self deprecation without self loathing
• inclusivity
• invitation for conversation, debate, curiosity, learning

Probable future postings:

• How your hips are low-key sabotaging the rest of your body.
• Working out doesn’t make you feel good, at first - my inaccurate (but descriptively useful?) theory on why.
• Software is a backbreaking career.
