G.A.I.N. Fall Fitcamp! Are you READY????
Fall, Football, Sports, School, Work….all of it is in FULL swing now! And I have to say, that I love it! The change in seasons, the excitement, the SCHEDULE! I thrive on it.
But it can wreak havoc on our health. Right, momma’s???
And the crazy thing is that it doesn’t have to! We can actually create a new normal that allows us to take care of ourselves in a way that actually benefits our families!
We just have to change our habits. Train our brains to crave the good stuff and activity that benefits our hearts, our souls and our bodies.
Every month I personally take a small group of women under my wing and share with them what God is teaching me about treating my body as a temple of His Holy Spirit!
⠀⠀⠀
I want to HELP YOU:
+stop the crazy dieting cycle by focusing on our Perfecter, not perfection.
+create a workout schedule that fits your LIFE doing a program you LOVE.
+ stay accountable to being HEALTHY from the inside-out.
+ learn how to eat the foods you LOVE without feeling deprived.
+ become empowered to change your life.
⠀⠀⠀
Here’s the thing….I have to be really honest with you and share that for a loooong time I tried doing my fitness journey on my own. And you know what? It’s hard, and it’s exhausting. But when I finally surrendered my struggles to my Creator who promises in Psalm 139 that I am fearfully and wonderfully made, I was finally able to find peace! YOU are beautiful and loved, no matter if you’re a size zero or a size 30. You are beautiful just the way you are, but God loves you so much that He doesn’t want you to stay in a place of defeat!
It doesn’t matter where you live, how in shape or out of shape you are, whether you have vacations planned, are traveling for work, or feel like you have zero time to focus on you—I’ve got you because this group is something that God has really laid on my heart and its content is truly my passion and purpose!
I often think about why these programs work so well for me. It’s not like there is anything magical about working out and eating clean. Nothing that cannot be found out there on the big wide web. But my personality just craves order and a plan to follow. And this is gonna be exactly what I need to reset my thinking and my habits. They say it takes 21 days to break a habit.
Well they also say it takes 90 days to form a new habit! And if there is one thing I’ve learned over the past two years, it is that being healthy is not a short term thing for me. I know it’s something I have to work at and pray about on a regular basis. It is something God has used to help me create new disciplines and reliance on Him.
And as a coach, I completely feel called to pay that forward. So, I am sticking with this theme for my September challenge group, and calling it G.A.I.N.
Does that sound odd? When we think about health, so often we think and talk about losing…weight, inches, etc.
But what if we GAIN control over our habits and GAIN a new way of thinking?
This verse has been on my heart for MONTHS now. Matt and I have been praying it about our finances and many other things. It is even written on the blackboard in our living room.
And I gotten to thinking about how it applies to our health and our fitness. I know that for me personally, I can be very greedy when it comes to what I eat and when I eat it. I used to consider it great freedom to be able to eat whatever I want whenever I want.
But truly, freedom comes when we relinquish our desires and our cravings to God and allow Him to be what we crave above all else! I believe that self-control means we let go of certain things in order to GAIN peace and contentment.
So, I have chosen this scripture verse – 1 Timothy 6:6 – as the theme of my September 19th G.A.I.N. 30 day FitCamp!
