Welcome to @fitnation!

Hi! We're here to curate fitness and nutrition posts and videos on the Steem blockchain.

Why are we here?

@fitnation is dedicated to discovering and rewarding undervalued fitness posts and videos on the Steem blockchain. The fitness industry is a massive worldwide industry; gyms alone are worth $83B globally. This figure does not include all the apps, magazines, supplements, personal trainers and websites that also generate sizeable income in countries all over the world.

Not only do we want the fitness industry to feel at home on the Steem blockchain, but we want to be the best home of, the most information-heavy, the most fun, the most in-depth discussions, the most entertaining and the most consistently engaging content right here…


To accomplish this, we need to reward those authors that are producing excellent posts.

Not for profit

Fitnation is a team and is bigger than any one member. Any SP or SBD that @fitnation earns through posts and curation will be converted into Steem Power to be used to upvote quality fitness posts. Should any of the members leave, then new members will be elected to fulfill the newly vacated roles.

What will we curate?

Fitnation will primarily curate the #fitness hashtag, but will obviously branch out into other tags. If you believe your content fits out below guidelines, feel free to use the tag #fitnation to help us find you.

Guidelines for Fitnation Curation:

  • Content must be written in English.
  • Your content can be on any application or UI, as long as it is posted exclusively to the Steem blockchain. Content must be exclusive to Steem.
  • Content must be original.
  • Content must add value to other readers of the Steem blockchain.
  • All images and information sources must be referenced. A hyperlink to the exact image/diagram must be provided either directly under or in a references section at the end of the article.
  • Content must be related to fitness or nutrition… but within this restriction it’s totally open, posts, videos, etc can be about particular exercises, products, regimes, diets, services, opinions, etc. The sky is the limit, as long as the post can potentially improve the well-being of the reader.
  • Content can be produced by an author of any reputation.
  • Only content below a reward value of $5 will be considered.
  • Content must be well presented, clear of errors and easy to read.
  • While opinion is important, anything stated as fact must be verifiably factually accurate.

Fitness Photographers

We want to hear from you too! We'd love to be able to use and credit your images in our weekly roundup posts, please use the tag #fitnation-photo in your fitness photography posts.


Looking for supporters

We're all invested in this platform... but to really make Steem the GO TO place for fitness, we need to be able to reward the quality posts of our creators. We're asking for you to delegate some SteemPower to @fitnation to help us build this community. We will only ever upvote according to the guidelines above. Help us to help us all.

We're asking for any delegation assistance you can spare.

OMG, this is fantastic!!! I have been waiting for fitness community on steemit forever! Yay!! Can't wait to see what it brings! :)

Thank you, thank you! I think this'll be a great opportunity to find the great posts on Steem. Steem is fantastic in a lot of different ways... but finding good stuff is really hard... we tend to help a lot with that.

Excited about this!

Us too! Thanks so much for your comment and support!

Cool! Considering how large the fitness community has grown on Instagram, I'm surprised it hasn't made a huge impact here yet. Great initiative!

The fitness community can be incredible content creators, and I think the longer form of Steem will suit them really well... a big part of this initiative is to help bring new fitness gurus across by showing them that they can make a decent side-hussle here. Thank you so much!

Congratulations! Your post has been selected as a daily Steemit truffle! It is listed on rank 1 of all contributions awarded today. You can find the TOP DAILY TRUFFLE PICKS HERE.

I upvoted your contribution because to my mind your post is at least 63 SBD worth and should receive 134 votes. It's now up to the lovely Steemit community to make this come true.
