| Video of the Week: Treadmill Tragedy |
| 2008-05-21 16:03:54 |
Have you experienced this in the gym? If not, you probably danced on the edge of disaster like I have. Maybe this is why I’m not into trendy gym memberships, fancy home gyms, or machines. Less is more.

| Contentment Can Be Elusive |
| 2008-05-10 15:01:50 |
The sun was just coming up over the mountain in the distance. I watched the sun melt away the shadows as it rose. The slight chill at 6,295 feet in the Sierra Nevada Mountains was disappearing quickly with the rise of the summer sun. I was sitting there alone enjoying God’s creation. Roads, cars, phones, [...]...

| Show Me What Works! - Part 3 of 3 |
| 2008-05-06 12:39:06 |
The day of the swim test in our military unit had arrived. Everyone was confident (or at least made it look that way). Each of us started at a different station, and the pool was quickly filled with Soldiers. Some were swimming with rifles. Others were entering the water with all their gear then ditching [...]...

What works to help us not fall into the “cliché trap” when we see others struggling?
I have come along side many who have walked through circumstances that can best be characterized as “the nightmare we pray never comes.” When I look into their eyes of despair this is what they seem to say to me,
“Walk [...]...

What works when life has just kicked your feet out from under you? You know . . . the kind of event (or series of events) where you find yourself laying flat on your back with the wind knocked out of you. You’re dazed and confused.
Where do we go from there? Do we bounce back [...]...

| The Biggest Loser |
| 2008-04-14 16:15:18 |
Tomorrow is “The Biggest Loser” finale on NBC. Finally . . . a reality show that may have a little “reality” in it! I love the message of this show: exercise + eating right = a healthy life style. The “reality” of this show is anyone can do it. Granted, the participants soley focus on exercise [...]...

| 6 Keys to Exercise Motivation: Spiritually and Physically! |
| 2008-04-10 16:54:51 |
Pursuing genuine faith and a fit life-style have many parallels. Here are some keys to staying motivated:
Consistency – same time, same place. This goes for both workouts and personal Bible study/prayer (quiet time).
Accountability – if someone is going to ask you how your workout was or how your quiet time went you’ll stay more consistent. [...]...

| Running Through God’s Creation |
| 2008-04-08 13:16:18 |
Yesterday, I went for a great run through an area I haven’t run through in a long time. I’m on vacation in the Sierra Nevada Mountains, and this run was amazing! Running is my “fringe sport.” It’s what I love to do in addition to my regular workout routine. I’ve found that I make larger [...]...

| Pull Ups |
| 2008-04-05 18:20:57 |
One of the simplest exercises that requires little to no equipment is the pull up. All you need is a bar, and a consistent plan to greatly improve strength. Pull ups mainly target the large muscle in your back (Latissimus Dorsi), but also uses many other stabilizing muscles in the back, shoulders, arms, and chest. [...]...

I recently returned from a conference where Dr. Stu Weber (author, Vietnam Veteran - 5th Special Forces Group, and pastor of Good Shepherd Community Church) was the keynote speaker. It was one of those conferences where most of the conference was mediocre, but the keynote speaker was top notch.
One point Dr. Weber drove home was [...]...
