After EIGHTY weeks of weekly content for this podcast, it is time to take a small sabbatical. For those of you following the show, you know about the life change that's happened for me. I have moved to a new town and started a new career. I just need a couple weeks to adjust before I continue to pump out quality Christian Fitness podcast content for our loyal listeners.

Thank you all for the support and for following us along this journey! God has moved in mighty ways through the Progressive Overload Podcast and we have no doubt that he will continue to do so.

We will take a short break and the next episode will release on September 5th!! We love you all and thanks for the support!!

In this episode, Tyson and Joe discuss the four levels of fitness and Christianity. If you survey all the people in the gym or in a congregation of a church you will find that they all fit in one of these four levels, for the most part. The curious, convinced, committed, or the commissioned category. We call it the Four C's of Discipleship. Listen in to hear where you may be and how you can step up to the next level.

That's where I talk with Walker Prothro about five ways that Christians should approach exercise in ways that are against mainstream fitness and the secular world.

This episode was hard for me…letting 100s of strangers I don’t even know hear my personal story and struggles with poor body image, poor relationships with food, and false identities. I hope and pray that my story of defeating these can speak to you and maybe even help you do the same.

I still struggle with all of these things ever day. But it’s my goal every morning to wake up and kill that old Joe and go improve the new one.

Please consider giving this one a listen, I think you’ll enjoy it!

Thoroughly enjoyed our episode with Walker Prothro!! What do you think about his and Joe Copeland’s input on chasing aesthetic goals?

We’re not saying Christian’s can’t have aesthetic goals. Especially as they relate to improving our overall health. But vanity can very quickly become a false idol and false identity if you are not paying constant attention to it!

Will my programming make you bikini ready by May?
Probably not.
Will my coaching help you shed 50lbs before your class reunion this summer?
Pass.
Will hiring me be the quick fix magic solution to all of your problems?
Hard no.

So why hire me?
1. I help clients break unhealthy relationships with food, exercise, and unhealthy relationships with their body.

2. I help clients see this big picture of health and fitness and coach them to understand that this is not a race, it’s not a 60 day program, it’s a life change.

3. I make sure that every time you step in a gym (at home or a public gym) that you won’t have to worry about figuring out what to do. You will always have a perfectly programmed exercise plan that will progressively overload you dependent on your goals.

4. Last but not least, I coach clients from a Bible based Christian perspective that sways us from the temptation of fixating on meaningless earthly physique goals. Instead, I try to help my clients understand that what we’re doing shouldn’t be fueled by a certain number on a scale but a level of function and health that will prime us to be the most effective and efficient vessels on Earth to go and tell the world about the good news of Christ.

If a coaching style such as that appeals to you, send me a DM and let me know you’re interested and I’ll give you more details!!

Check out this episode to learn the insider view on how coaches build programs for their clients and athletes! Whether your goal is to build strength, muscle, or endurance you need to give this episode a listen!

No judgement or conviction coming from me, just something to evaluate.

Social media has been chocked full of TS postings this weekend and I was just thinking to myself, “what if people got this excited to go to church?” And even “I wonder if some people who profess to be believers would act this crazy about being in a stadium where Jesus was speaking? 🤷‍♂️ I think our priorities and our heart should be constantly reevaluated and that’s the only point to the post.

The fitness industry is packed full of hard and harsh fitness advice. This can sometimes hinder people from beginning a fitness journey or continuing their fitness journey. Let's talk about some softer fitness advice that can be more encouraging and uplifting for a change.
"Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will grow to become in every respect the mature body of him who is the head, that is, Christ." - Ephesians 4:15
