Hey Todd,

Welcome to the blog! Knights of the Old Republic is an amazing game. That
twist in the middle where you find out about your true past was awesome.
I'm really excited to see what Bioware can pull off with their Star Wars
MMORPG. If that game is any good, Nerd Fitness will probably disappear.

I found you through Art of Manliness as well. I used to be in pretty good shape but after three years of being a nonsmoker married to a great cook I'm not so much.

I love books, really like video games. My all time favorite has to Knights of the Old Republic.

I also like making knives in my spare time (what's that?!) (www.thornhillknifeworks.com).

I really hope to gain a better understanding of fitness, get back in shape, eat better, and not die at age 40 from a heart attack.

Found the blog through Art of Manliness (I think). Started exercising (alternating running for wt loss & stronglifts for strength training) 6x/wk. Favorite video game … I play the Lego stuff with my kids a lot, but other than that it's a steady diet of anything baseball.

Suggestion for future posts: While I love the celebrity fitness stuff, how about doing a celebrity reverse-fitness post where you examine the diet and non-exercise routine of a celeb who had to “get fat” for a role. (Hanks in Da Vinci comes to mind, but there are doubtless others. I'd love to compare their diet to what we normally eat.

I found your site via Don (a few comments up) I'm sort of a fitness nerd. I'm more geeky about working out than video games, but I have yet to find an incarnation of Mortal Kombat or Virtua Fighter that I haven't loved.

Hi. I'm Audrey. I wrote about myself here (http://www.nerdfitness.com/blog/2009/10/19/meet...). I, too, love me some video/computer games – Long ago, it was counterstrike. Now, it's Katamari Forever and Uncharted 2. I came across the site hunting for barefoot running information before I dropped $80 on Vibram Five Fingers. I work out twice a week with a personal trainer and twice a week on my own. I love this site – I have the Nerd Fitness Philosophy quotes on the wall of my cubicle.

Hey Don,

Can't wait to hear what you think of the book. Just took a look at Intense Debate...that also looks sweet. Damn. Maybe I'll try that one out too for a week and then decide.

I think Nintendo needs to bring back the Tanooki suit for future Mario Games. Super Mario Galaxy was pretty badass, but I want me a racoon tail!
