Going to the gym in itself is still not a 'nerdy' activity. All you did was describe going to a gym in a very nerdy way by comparing it to an RPG - you could most likely apply this practice to just about any activity one could do.
edit: I do disagree with that statement of the poster to whom you replied, you can still be a pretty big nerd and go to a gym.

Neither is moving pieces on a chess board until you start to obsess over it, read about it in your free time, track your progress as a player, and constantly try and improved yourself as a chess player. No activity is really "intrinsically nerdy" (whatever that means), that's why I said "if you approach it the right way".
- justathrow2k 12y agoStill, society generally views playing chess as being nerdy, no matter how involved you are with it. They don't make these distinctions you're making. Whether or not they're accurate in their description is another discussion entirely, but I think we can all understand this in the context of the conversation.
