Stretch Partner Anyone?

Stretch Partner Anyone?

When people see me working out, they always say what are you training for. I quickly yell "life." Well while training today I thought to myself "Geez, I need a stretch partner." 

Then I thought to myself "I need one for life also."

 Why for life?

Well first let’s start with what a stretch partner really is. The fitness definition is someone that assists another with their flexibility. My definition of a stretch partner is someone who stretches one beyond their limits.

I think we all need a stretch partner.

  • Someone that stretches us past our comfort zones
  • Stretches...


Get Off Your Ass-ET!

Get Off Your Ass-ET!

We are all guilty of at one time or another feeling incompetent, unworthy, not enough or just down right insufficient. I used to tell people when I was still running track professionally that the hardest part of my job was competing on a level that a lot of the time I didn't feel that I was even qualified to be on.

Forget a Fitbit! What if we had a Sinbit?

Forget a Fitbit! What if we had a Sinbit?

Ok since the entire world is using this new invention called the Fitbit I have a question. If you do not know what a Fitbit is a simple Google search will bring you up to speed. Now to the question.
What if we had a sinbit instead of a fitbit. This lil thingamajig could track our thoughts, our sins, daily worship, prayer, and Christ like behavior.
 
Better yet, what if we all enrolled into a sinbit competition at work where the goal was to see who could be more Christ like, sin the least...
