What's the biggest misconception that the average person has about max security prisons?

Thanks for taking the time to answer! That's always seemed like one of the scariest thoughts of prison for me. As a rough guesstimate, how prevalent do you think it is? What sort of percentage of people experience this?

Hey Steve,

Congratulations on coming so far with Nerd Fitness! I remember stumbling across your website and being inspired to start living a healthy life about 4 or 5 years ago. Since then I've transformed myself into a runner, triathlete, power lifter and now I'm transforming yet again for my first Tough Mudder. Basically, thanks for inspiring me to make fitness a part of my life!

How much do you feel accountability to the NF community has advanced your own fitness goals? Has it made you more committed and helped you achieve more than you otherwise would have?

The travelling was a hugely impressive feat to me, when I went to Australia I lost a LOT of progress - it's so easy to just say yes to a lot of bad habits when you're travelling!

Thanks for answering my question though! I just finally wanted to say that I'm glad to see you doing so well, I see you as the 'good guy' of fitness and it's great to see the good guy win!

Hey /u/riatndyd,

How big is the lump in your neck? I had a series of small hard lumps in my neck recently and completely freaked out about it, in fact I ruined about 3 months of my life worrying about it. Eventually my doctor sent me to get it checked out properly and it was absolutely nothing, I've just got funky glands in my neck/chin.

If the doctor says it's okay, try not to worry about it and ruin a big chunk of your year like I did.
