Today I wrote a post about how I was challenged to a weight lifting contest.  My very first one and I think I represented the nerds/geeks well :-).  Anyway, I decided to turn it into a personal finance related posts.  Check it out here:  The Similarities Between Weight Lifting and Personal Finance: The Gym Competition Edition

 

Also, if you are into weight lifting or going to the gym, what tips do you have for me to improve my form? 

 

I noticed a lot wrong with my form, after watching the videos within the post.  My shoulders are paying the price right nowCryCryCry… but you live and you learn.

Nice fit physically and financially is a great combo. Sounds like a niche.
