    Team’s Pick: Revenge of the Nerd (Steve Kamb)
    Dec 23 2024

    To grab your free checklist, head to coachesconsole.com/getchecklist.


    The Mirasee FM podcast team chooses their favorite episode of 2024 to close out the year. In this pick, Steve Kamb shares how — from humble and geeky beginnings — he built Nerd Fitness into an online empire of learning for tens of thousands of students. His insights include the importance of community, having accountability, and avoiding the trap of perfection.

    Steve Kamb founded NerdFitness.com in 2009 to help average folks, nerds, and misfits level up their lives.

    In this episode, Danny, Abe, and Steve discuss:

    • How Nerd Fitness started and evolved to become hugely popular
    • The integration of the site’s content and courses
    • Shifting from online courses to building a larger community
    • The challenges of implementing accountability
    • Not waiting for perfection before you launch your course
    “I'm just a huge dork who happens to love helping people not make all the mistakes I did.” — Steve Kamb

    Steve Kamb is the nerd who founded NerdFitness.com in 2009 to help average folks, nerds, and misfits level up their lives. He started the site to help people NOT make the same mistakes he made when he started his own journey.

    Since then, he has bootstrapped Nerd Fitness and transformed it from a one-man blog into a passionate "rebellion" of 5 million annual visitors, 150,000 dedicated subscribers, and a full-time team of 25 humans. The site is best known for Nerd Fitness Coaching, its online program that has coached more than 10,000 one-on-one clients over the past five years. The site also boasts the most supportive and welcoming online community in the known universe.

    Steve is also the author of Level Up Your Life, a book about turning life into a video game to reach your goals, and he has guest lectured at Google, Facebook, and Vanderbilt University. He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
