The following program
is designed to demonstrate
00:00:02.06\00:00:04.01
simple workouts that you
can use to improve your health.
00:00:04.02\00:00:06.71
Be sure to
consult your physician
00:00:08.57\00:00:10.03
before beginning
any exercise program.
00:00:10.04\00:00:12.29
Exercise can be very beneficial
00:00:15.00\00:00:17.14
but we always want to remember
00:00:17.15\00:00:18.22
to do it for the right reason.
00:00:18.23\00:00:19.64
Today we're gonna be emphasizing
00:00:19.65\00:00:21.00
the spiritual
aspect of exercise.
00:00:21.01\00:00:22.89
Stay tuned for
"Body and Spirit" next.
00:00:22.90\00:00:25.14
Hello, I'm Dick
Nunez, Exercise Physiologist
00:00:53.70\00:00:56.15
and Principal of Miracle Meadows
00:00:56.16\00:00:57.54
and Mountain State Leadership
Academy in West Virginia.
00:00:57.55\00:00:59.91
Welcome to "Body and Spirit."
00:00:59.92\00:01:01.91
Today we're
gonna be talking about
00:01:01.92\00:01:03.14
a very important
aspect of exercise.
00:01:03.15\00:01:05.16
That's our
spiritual aspect of it.
00:01:05.17\00:01:07.13
I'd like you to
think for just a moment
00:01:07.14\00:01:08.72
that somebody has given you
00:01:08.73\00:01:09.75
the car of your
dreams, whatever that might be.
00:01:09.76\00:01:12.41
It could be
Porsche, could be a Suburban,
00:01:12.42\00:01:14.42
could be a Maserati
00:01:14.43\00:01:15.83
or a
Lamborghini, any car you want.
00:01:15.84\00:01:18.48
And when somebody
gives you that car,
00:01:18.49\00:01:20.02
there's no strings attached.
00:01:20.03\00:01:21.64
It's yours to do
whatever you want with,
00:01:21.65\00:01:23.87
you don't have to
pay for it, it's yours.
00:01:23.88\00:01:26.26
How are you
gonna take care of it?
00:01:26.27\00:01:27.41
Well, most people
would probably change the oil
00:01:27.42\00:01:29.68
every 3,000 miles and
make sure all the fluids
00:01:29.69\00:01:32.31
are up to par and
make sure that people
00:01:32.32\00:01:35.12
take good care of it
when they ride in their car
00:01:35.13\00:01:37.57
because they're
only gonna get it once.
00:01:37.58\00:01:39.22
They know somebody is not
just gonna hand him a car again
00:01:39.23\00:01:41.61
so they're gonna
take ultimate care of it.
00:01:41.62\00:01:43.48
And we know that we
change oil every 3, 000 miles
00:01:43.49\00:01:45.85
and do regular
maintenance and tune ups,
00:01:45.86\00:01:48.01
then our car will last longer.
00:01:48.02\00:01:50.05
Well, the reality is
we do only get one body,
00:01:50.06\00:01:52.83
God has given us that
gift and we actually are free
00:01:52.84\00:01:55.85
to do whatever we want with it.
00:01:55.86\00:01:57.27
Unfortunately many people today
00:01:57.28\00:01:59.34
take better care of their
cars than they do their bodies.
00:01:59.35\00:02:01.75
We're going to explore
a little bit about that
00:02:01.76\00:02:03.16
as we go
through a workout today.
00:02:03.17\00:02:04.81
I think we're
ready to get started.
00:02:04.82\00:02:06.34
Helping me out
today is Jason and Will
00:02:06.35\00:02:08.57
who are both
students at the Mountain State
00:02:08.58\00:02:09.99
Leadership Academy
that I'm the principle of.
00:02:10.00\00:02:12.40
And we're looking forward
to having a good workout.
00:02:14.34\00:02:16.12
Let's go and stand back
just a little bit, Jason.
00:02:16.13\00:02:18.53
And we're gonna loosen up
00:02:18.54\00:02:20.10
by just swinging the arms around
00:02:20.11\00:02:22.56
and getting our bodies
ready for a good workout.
00:02:22.57\00:02:25.60
It's always
important to warm the body up
00:02:25.61\00:02:27.68
and cool the body down.
00:02:27.69\00:02:29.70
If you just stop
exercise all of a sudden,
00:02:29.71\00:02:32.66
it puts a lot of
strain on your heart which is
00:02:32.67\00:02:35.51
still trying to circulate
blood throughout your body.
00:02:35.52\00:02:38.07
Okay, and let's
go the other way.
00:02:38.08\00:02:39.93
And also we want to
get the blood pumping
00:02:39.94\00:02:41.93
as we start our exercise
program because warm muscle
00:02:41.94\00:02:46.57
works much more effectively
than one that is not.
00:02:46.58\00:02:48.85
And also this is a good one
00:02:51.46\00:02:52.79
just to get the motion
on the shoulders going.
00:02:52.80\00:02:55.19
Let's do a few more.
00:02:57.87\00:02:59.11
And good. All right.
00:03:00.89\00:03:03.12
We're gonna do
some pushups today.
00:03:03.13\00:03:05.42
I want you to hit the
deck and we're gonna do 'em
00:03:05.43\00:03:07.28
with a little bit
of a twist to them.
00:03:07.29\00:03:09.01
We're gonna do what I
call one and a quarters.
00:03:09.02\00:03:11.53
So you're gonna go.
Will's experienced already.
00:03:11.54\00:03:14.69
Okay, all the way down, back up.
00:03:14.70\00:03:17.53
Now just go one quarter
of the way down and back up,
00:03:17.54\00:03:20.44
now go all the way down and up,
00:03:20.45\00:03:23.03
part way down
and up, keep going.
00:03:23.04\00:03:26.19
Part way down and up,
all the way down and up,
00:03:27.44\00:03:31.64
part way down and
up, all the way down, up,
00:03:31.65\00:03:35.71
part way down, up,
all the way down, up.
00:03:35.72\00:03:39.75
We're looking good, keep going.
00:03:39.76\00:03:41.77
Way down and up,
part way down, up.
00:03:41.78\00:03:46.01
All the way down,
up. Part way down, up.
00:03:46.02\00:03:49.73
Again all the way down, up,
part way down, up, two more.
00:03:49.74\00:03:54.98
All the way down, up,
part way down, up, last one.
00:03:54.99\00:04:01.22
Part way down and up. Good.
00:04:01.23\00:04:03.66
Jason, that's like a walk
in the park for you there.
00:04:04.99\00:04:08.44
Okay, let's stretch
those chest muscles out.
00:04:08.45\00:04:10.68
Reach back and stretch that out.
00:04:10.69\00:04:14.36
There on the pushups you
could do them from your knees
00:04:14.37\00:04:16.51
if you want or you can
do them against the wall.
00:04:16.52\00:04:19.18
Let's bring it across
00:04:19.19\00:04:20.22
and stretch the
shoulder blades out.
00:04:20.23\00:04:22.62
But doing the pushups is a
very good overall body exercise.
00:04:23.92\00:04:28.04
Even for these young fellows,
I know they already felt it.
00:04:28.05\00:04:30.53
Okay, let's go
back again and stretch.
00:04:32.74\00:04:36.14
And now bring it back across.
00:04:40.44\00:04:42.40
For ten more seconds.
00:04:46.46\00:04:47.88
One, two, three, four, five,
00:04:47.89\00:04:52.74
six, seven, eight, nine and ten.
00:04:52.75\00:04:57.69
Now we're gonna work the back.
00:04:57.70\00:04:58.95
We're gonna reach
out, grab the wrist.
00:04:58.96\00:05:02.10
We're gonna pull. Act
like you're sawing a log.
00:05:02.11\00:05:05.78
Reaching way out
maximize that stroke
00:05:05.79\00:05:09.20
through giving
yourself resistance
00:05:09.21\00:05:10.48
with your opposite arm.
00:05:10.49\00:05:12.05
We'll try and do 20 of these.
00:05:12.06\00:05:13.65
And seven, and eight, nine,
00:05:17.82\00:05:23.35
ten, eleven, twelve.
00:05:23.36\00:05:27.41
Well, my log's
done, you guys keep going.
00:05:27.42\00:05:28.87
Thirteen, fourteen,
fifteen, sixteen, seventeen,
00:05:28.88\00:05:36.24
eighteen, nineteen, twenty.
00:05:36.25\00:05:39.94
Okay. Switch over.
00:05:39.95\00:05:41.88
Forget this here,
it's changed all right.
00:05:41.89\00:05:43.70
Okay, let's go.
Pull and reach out. Good.
00:05:43.71\00:05:48.38
Way out, way out, excellent.
Bend over little more.
00:05:48.39\00:05:53.36
Six, and seven,
eight, nine, ten.
00:05:56.22\00:06:03.55
Excellent. Eleven.
00:06:03.56\00:06:05.54
And move that
scapula as much as you can.
00:06:05.55\00:06:07.59
Thirteen,
fourteen, fifteen, sixteen,
00:06:08.64\00:06:14.39
seventeen, eighteen,
nineteen, twenty. Good.
00:06:14.40\00:06:20.93
You know, the pin of
inspiration says we should--
00:06:20.94\00:06:23.20
a pastor should chop
two hours of wood a day,
00:06:23.21\00:06:25.94
not only would they stay fit
00:06:25.95\00:06:27.22
but all the saints
will stay warm is well.
00:06:27.23\00:06:29.33
Okay, now we're
gonna put our arms out
00:06:29.34\00:06:31.53
and do some arm circles.
00:06:31.54\00:06:32.86
In my life of
training and being involved
00:06:34.09\00:06:36.84
in bodybuilding and powerlifting
00:06:36.85\00:06:39.31
and also involved in track
and field when I was in college,
00:06:39.32\00:06:42.87
I saw a lot of people
00:06:42.88\00:06:44.09
who are very
dedicated to win the prize.
00:06:44.10\00:06:46.94
Let's go bigger circles.
00:06:46.95\00:06:48.41
I know the
apostle Paul talks about
00:06:48.42\00:06:50.44
in 1 Corinthians
9:24 through 27 about
00:06:50.45\00:06:53.61
being wanting to
go winning the prize,
00:06:53.62\00:06:56.09
to train as one
who's going to do so
00:06:56.10\00:06:58.30
but we are training for a
prize that's not corruptible,
00:06:58.31\00:07:01.69
it's incorruptible
and he goes on to say
00:07:01.70\00:07:04.14
that he beats his
body and makes it his slave
00:07:04.15\00:07:06.66
that after he's
preached unto others,
00:07:06.67\00:07:08.05
he himself shall not be
disqualified for the prize.
00:07:08.06\00:07:10.48
Or other translations
say shall not be a castaway.
00:07:10.49\00:07:13.36
Okay, let's go bigger.
00:07:13.37\00:07:14.78
Now let's reverse it,
go to other direction.
00:07:15.95\00:07:18.58
I remember when I
was in track and field
00:07:18.59\00:07:20.84
there was a man who
was a world record holder
00:07:20.85\00:07:23.35
in shot put and he
said that he could,
00:07:23.36\00:07:26.65
he could take a pill
that would guarantee him
00:07:26.66\00:07:29.57
a gold medal and a world record
00:07:29.58\00:07:32.00
but yetit would kill him
in one year, would he do it?
00:07:32.01\00:07:34.26
And he said
absolutely without question.
00:07:34.27\00:07:36.93
Let's go larger.
Let's reverse it again.
00:07:36.94\00:07:40.16
You starting to feel that yet?
00:07:41.50\00:07:42.62
Yes. How about you, Will?
00:07:42.63\00:07:44.10
Yeah. Okay, good.
00:07:44.11\00:07:45.57
We're about ready to hold it.
00:07:45.58\00:07:46.87
Okay, ready and hold.
00:07:51.24\00:07:56.51
I remember another man
during my training career
00:07:56.52\00:07:59.67
who was a eight time
powerlifting champion
00:07:59.68\00:08:01.76
but he'd had nine heart attacks.
00:08:01.77\00:08:04.01
So he had more
heart attacks than he had
00:08:04.02\00:08:05.80
world championships
and he said he would
00:08:05.81\00:08:08.11
give back all his
world championships
00:08:08.12\00:08:10.25
if he could just
have his health back.
00:08:10.26\00:08:11.83
So I've seen so many
people destroy their lives
00:08:11.84\00:08:14.98
all for the sake of
earning a corruptible crown.
00:08:14.99\00:08:18.31
When we train
for the glory of God,
00:08:18.32\00:08:20.24
we look for that
incorruptible crown
00:08:20.25\00:08:22.75
that will never go
away if we keep our focus
00:08:22.76\00:08:25.62
on him as we do our training.
00:08:25.63\00:08:27.93
Now as I focus on that I don't
have to think about the time.
00:08:27.94\00:08:30.01
Okay, but this is
starting to wake me up
00:08:31.96\00:08:33.71
and let me know that's
something's happening here.
00:08:33.72\00:08:35.63
We got 20 more seconds to go.
00:08:35.64\00:08:37.40
While you're doing
this lactic acid will start
00:08:37.41\00:08:39.44
to build up in
the muscle causing
00:08:39.45\00:08:41.06
the burning
sensation, that's okay,
00:08:41.07\00:08:43.29
it's a natural defense mechanism
00:08:43.30\00:08:44.80
the body has so
we don't go too far.
00:08:44.81\00:08:47.17
And also it is not
gonna make us sore.
00:08:48.19\00:08:50.36
The body is very effective
when using the lactic acid.
00:08:50.37\00:08:53.05
Let's go ahead and put
the arms down right, ooh, now.
00:08:53.06\00:08:56.53
Oh, that's a good shoulder pump.
00:08:57.89\00:08:59.25
Okay, let through
all the shoulders around.
00:08:59.26\00:09:01.05
What causes muscles
soreness has more to do with
00:09:02.39\00:09:04.70
disruption of connective tissue.
00:09:04.71\00:09:06.91
That's a little disruption there
00:09:06.92\00:09:09.08
and where actually the
body is trying to clean up
00:09:09.09\00:09:11.19
the contents to
cells are spilling out
00:09:11.20\00:09:14.00
and irritates cells
slow to irritate nerves
00:09:14.01\00:09:17.05
around the tissue and that's
what causes muscle soreness.
00:09:17.06\00:09:20.12
The body actually has the
ability to take lactic acid
00:09:20.13\00:09:24.07
and bring it back
into glucose again
00:09:24.08\00:09:25.53
so we can use it
once more for energy.
00:09:25.54\00:09:27.60
Let's go the other way now.
00:09:27.61\00:09:28.88
These feel really
good after going through
00:09:29.96\00:09:31.86
a difficult
strain on the upper body.
00:09:33.04\00:09:36.81
And let's go five more.
00:09:41.03\00:09:42.63
Okay, let's take
our hands in the middle
00:09:46.79\00:09:48.97
and we're gonna roll
'em up like this and down,
00:09:48.98\00:09:51.94
up and down, up and down.
00:09:51.95\00:09:55.65
Okay, we're gonna do 15 more.
00:09:57.88\00:10:01.35
There's one, pull
up, two, and three,
00:10:01.36\00:10:06.22
and four, five, six, seven,
00:10:06.23\00:10:13.20
eight, nine, ten, eleven,
00:10:13.21\00:10:19.76
twelve, thirteen, fourteen.
00:10:19.77\00:10:23.85
One more time.
And fifteen. Good.
00:10:23.86\00:10:26.43
Now I'd like you
to put your arm up
00:10:26.44\00:10:27.53
over the head and
stretch, get a hold of the elbow
00:10:27.54\00:10:29.47
and stretch your
latissimus area, good.
00:10:29.48\00:10:32.84
We hold each stretch for
between ten and twenty seconds.
00:10:34.05\00:10:37.00
And let's hold it for ten more.
00:10:38.41\00:10:39.80
One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven,
00:10:39.81\00:10:46.85
eight, nine, and
ten, switch over.
00:10:46.86\00:10:50.44
Stretching is a very
important part of exercise,
00:10:51.50\00:10:55.22
it keeps us at range
of motion and we might--
00:10:55.23\00:10:57.63
Now even though we
have strong healthy muscles
00:10:57.64\00:10:59.20
we want to make sure
they stay flexible as well.
00:10:59.21\00:11:01.39
Five more seconds.
Four, three, two, one.
00:11:01.40\00:11:05.77
Now I want you to bring your
00:11:05.78\00:11:07.04
arm up and across,
stretch the shoulder.
00:11:07.05\00:11:08.90
We're gonna be
emphasizing on this area here.
00:11:11.01\00:11:13.38
After doing what we've
done already on shoulders,
00:11:13.39\00:11:15.37
that should've felt pretty good.
00:11:15.38\00:11:16.72
Okay, and we've
got five more seconds.
00:11:19.62\00:11:21.66
Four, three, two, one. Switch.
00:11:21.67\00:11:26.51
You feel that
stretch to the elbow.
00:11:31.69\00:11:34.15
Good. Jason, you all right?
00:11:34.16\00:11:35.77
Yes. Okay, its
lot of fun, isn't it?
00:11:35.78\00:11:37.74
Okay, and we've
got five more seconds.
00:11:39.03\00:11:42.96
One, two, three, four, five.
00:11:42.97\00:11:47.43
Now another
important part of exercise
00:11:47.44\00:11:49.11
is to breathe properly.
00:11:49.12\00:11:50.39
We don't want to stress
at all because that creates
00:11:50.40\00:11:53.32
a lot of intercranial
and interthoracic pressure
00:11:53.33\00:11:55.39
that can actually be
harmful for your health.
00:11:55.40\00:11:57.31
We want to a good
breathing through the nose
00:11:57.32\00:11:59.89
and out through the mouth.
00:11:59.90\00:12:00.89
Let's do that right
now, in through the nose,
00:12:00.90\00:12:02.53
out through the
mouth, in through the nose,
00:12:04.18\00:12:07.50
out through the mouth.
00:12:09.24\00:12:10.25
Two more times. And out.
00:12:11.45\00:12:16.06
Last one in through the nose
00:12:16.07\00:12:18.04
and out through the mouth.
00:12:19.28\00:12:20.49
Good. All right.
00:12:22.09\00:12:23.39
We're gonna do
some bicep exercise
00:12:23.40\00:12:25.52
and we're gonna do this similar
to what a bodybuilder would do.
00:12:25.53\00:12:27.93
We're just gonna
reach the arms out,
00:12:27.94\00:12:29.38
we're gonna flex down
00:12:29.39\00:12:30.79
and then back
out and flex and out.
00:12:30.80\00:12:33.58
Go ahead anytime, guys.
00:12:33.59\00:12:34.87
I'm doing it out here by myself.
00:12:34.88\00:12:37.41
Squeeze down and
out, squeeze down and out.
00:12:39.12\00:12:42.88
Keep your elbows up. And
flex hard each time, good.
00:12:42.89\00:12:47.20
Get your elbows up a
little higher, Jason.
00:12:51.69\00:12:53.14
Put your head up.
00:12:53.15\00:12:54.84
Okay, you're gonna act
just like you're out there
00:12:57.39\00:12:58.81
in the
bodybuilding platform there
00:12:58.82\00:13:00.78
and you're flexing your muscles
for all your friends to see.
00:13:00.79\00:13:03.74
Okay, can you imagine that?
00:13:03.75\00:13:06.92
Oh, yeah, okay good. Ten more.
00:13:06.93\00:13:09.75
One, two, three,
00:13:11.04\00:13:16.53
four, five, six, seven,
00:13:16.54\00:13:23.82
eight, nine, ten.
00:13:23.83\00:13:27.73
Good. Back down on the floor.
00:13:27.74\00:13:31.06
You can go out your
knees this time, guys.
00:13:33.52\00:13:35.18
I want you to go
into the diamond pushups.
00:13:35.19\00:13:38.36
You're gonna form a
diamond on the ground there
00:13:38.37\00:13:40.22
and this is gonna
be a triceps exercise.
00:13:40.23\00:13:42.43
Okay, you're on your
knees, okay, down and up.
00:13:42.44\00:13:46.14
This is a
variation to your pushup.
00:13:46.15\00:13:47.75
Again go and keep going.
00:13:47.76\00:13:49.45
You can do this
against the wall if you want.
00:13:49.46\00:13:51.55
This is a modified
position, some people call this
00:13:53.89\00:13:58.10
ladies pushups but I've
seen ladies do one arm pushups
00:13:58.11\00:14:02.29
without--with relative
ease and I see men struggling
00:14:02.30\00:14:06.77
with doing what are
called ladies pushups.
00:14:06.78\00:14:08.59
So I think its kind
of an erroneous term.
00:14:08.60\00:14:10.76
It's simply a modified
simple version of a pushup
00:14:10.77\00:14:13.88
and some people need to do this
00:14:13.89\00:14:15.36
or they can just use the wall.
00:14:15.37\00:14:17.32
Okay, we're
doing fine, keep going.
00:14:17.33\00:14:19.60
Let's do five more.
00:14:19.61\00:14:21.43
One, two, three, four.
00:14:21.44\00:14:28.66
One more time and five, good.
00:14:28.67\00:14:31.49
All right. Could we feel that?
00:14:33.36\00:14:35.59
Okay, shake the arms out.
00:14:38.08\00:14:39.22
And we're just
gonna rotate the neck.
00:14:40.55\00:14:42.55
Turn to the side and turn,
00:14:44.05\00:14:47.30
and turn, turn, and turn.
00:14:49.54\00:14:56.11
Keep the torso steady
and turn, and turn, turn.
00:14:56.12\00:15:04.11
And five more each way.
00:15:05.62\00:15:07.60
There's one, and two,
00:15:08.94\00:15:13.69
three, four, and five. Good.
00:15:16.36\00:15:23.59
All right. Time for some legs.
00:15:24.68\00:15:26.03
We're gonna do some lunges.
00:15:27.34\00:15:28.59
Put your hands on your hips,
00:15:30.18\00:15:31.92
I want you step way
out there and lunge out.
00:15:31.93\00:15:34.68
Down till your knee
touches the ground and back up,
00:15:34.69\00:15:38.70
now switch the
other side, come back
00:15:38.71\00:15:40.35
to your starting position
and step out with the other leg.
00:15:40.36\00:15:43.31
Down and up, good.
00:15:43.32\00:15:45.90
Keep going, we're gonna do
00:15:48.33\00:15:49.33
20 on each side,
this is number two.
00:15:49.34\00:15:51.80
We just finished number two.
00:15:51.81\00:15:53.68
Now you've started number three.
00:15:53.69\00:15:55.90
Jason, I want you to keep tabs.
00:15:55.91\00:15:57.33
Now when you do your lunge
00:15:58.64\00:15:59.97
this is a very
aggressive workout,
00:15:59.98\00:16:02.54
it could be difficult for some
00:16:02.55\00:16:04.05
especially if
you have bad knees.
00:16:04.06\00:16:05.68
So if you have to
do a shorter lunge,
00:16:05.69\00:16:08.72
that's fine, if you
just get a few inches
00:16:08.73\00:16:11.06
and switch over that
way until you develop
00:16:11.07\00:16:13.31
the ability to go down further.
00:16:13.32\00:16:14.96
For these fellows
there won't be any problem
00:16:16.49\00:16:18.09
although they will
start to feel their legs
00:16:18.10\00:16:20.50
talking to them in just
a little bit here I'm sure.
00:16:20.51\00:16:23.23
If they're not already starting
to say something to them.
00:16:23.24\00:16:25.56
This exercise has a high
potential for making you sore
00:16:25.57\00:16:29.32
or for disrupting the tissues
around the connective area.
00:16:29.33\00:16:31.86
Again it's very
important to remember
00:16:35.73\00:16:37.18
to train for the glory of God.
00:16:37.19\00:16:38.65
I remember in my
early years and I was eating
00:16:38.66\00:16:41.43
the three pounds of
meat, gallon of milk,
00:16:41.44\00:16:42.83
half dozen eggs
everyday, I was eating
00:16:42.84\00:16:44.72
five to seven times a
day, 10,000 calories a day,
00:16:44.73\00:16:47.61
I'd even set an alarm clock
at 2 o'clock in the morning
00:16:47.62\00:16:50.22
to get up and eat
and I got to a point
00:16:50.23\00:16:53.02
I actually hated to
eat and 20 years ago
00:16:53.03\00:16:55.54
I became a total
vegetarian and even though
00:16:55.55\00:16:57.79
on the meat diet I
was able to work my bench
00:16:57.80\00:16:59.92
press up to 455
pounds in my early 20s,
00:16:59.93\00:17:03.57
now as a
vegetarian in my late 40s
00:17:03.58\00:17:06.95
now I'm up to around 500
pounds in the bench press.
00:17:06.96\00:17:09.35
So it doesn't have
to be the meat diet
00:17:09.36\00:17:12.01
and also I realize that I didn't
00:17:12.02\00:17:14.24
need to train
for myself anymore.
00:17:14.25\00:17:15.89
By training to glory
of God things just happen.
00:17:15.90\00:17:18.48
I didn't have to worry about it.
00:17:18.49\00:17:19.67
Are you sure
you're done? Oh, yeah.
00:17:23.80\00:17:25.36
Sure you didn't cut that short?
00:17:25.37\00:17:26.55
Okay, remember we're training
for spiritual reasons today,
00:17:26.56\00:17:28.72
so you wouldn't
dare tell me anything
00:17:28.73\00:17:31.16
other than the truth, right?
00:17:31.17\00:17:32.47
Okay, good. All right.
00:17:32.48\00:17:34.50
What I want you to do
is to stretch your legs,
00:17:34.51\00:17:36.26
I want you to put
your hands on my shoulder.
00:17:36.27\00:17:39.77
Okay, and grab a
hold of your ankle
00:17:39.78\00:17:42.33
and stretch the quadriceps.
00:17:42.34\00:17:44.17
Could you feel
that in your thigh?
00:17:48.52\00:17:49.82
Good. Okay, ten more seconds.
00:17:49.83\00:17:51.97
One, two, three,
four, five, six, seven,
00:17:51.98\00:17:58.70
eight, nine and ten, switch.
00:17:58.71\00:18:02.32
Hold that. Okay,
ten more seconds.
00:18:07.42\00:18:14.06
One, two, three, four,
00:18:14.07\00:18:18.33
five, six, seven,
eight, nine and ten, good.
00:18:18.34\00:18:25.49
And now we're gonna step out,
00:18:25.50\00:18:27.57
up on the heel,
lean forward into it.
00:18:27.58\00:18:30.44
Stretch the back of the legs.
00:18:31.82\00:18:33.71
And ten more,
one, two, three, four,
00:18:38.88\00:18:43.89
five, six, seven,
eight, nine, ten, switch.
00:18:43.90\00:18:50.78
Hold that tight.
Ten more seconds.
00:18:54.47\00:18:59.42
One, two, three, four, five,
00:18:59.43\00:19:04.73
six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
00:19:04.74\00:19:09.45
Come back to the
edge of the platform.
00:19:10.38\00:19:11.91
I want your heels off so you're
on the balls of your feet.
00:19:11.92\00:19:14.72
Put your hand on
my shoulder again
00:19:14.73\00:19:16.24
to use it for stability
and up and down on the calves.
00:19:16.25\00:19:20.14
Way up high and
down, way up high and down,
00:19:20.15\00:19:24.32
try not to fall off and down.
00:19:24.33\00:19:26.05
Good. Keep going.
00:19:26.06\00:19:27.09
All right, now I'd like
you to do ten fast ones. Fast.
00:19:31.56\00:19:34.82
Up down, up down, up
down, up down, up down, up down,
00:19:34.83\00:19:40.01
up down, up
down, up down, up down.
00:19:40.02\00:19:43.51
Now slow, slow. And slow.
00:19:43.52\00:19:49.56
They're hanging
on for dear life now.
00:19:49.57\00:19:51.29
Okay, ten fast
ones again. Pump it.
00:19:53.85\00:19:56.55
One, two, and three, four, five,
00:19:56.56\00:20:00.81
six, seven, eight, nine
and five more slow ones.
00:20:00.82\00:20:06.28
One, and two, and three,
00:20:06.29\00:20:12.86
four, five, ten more times.
00:20:12.87\00:20:16.36
One fast, two,
three, four, five,
00:20:16.37\00:20:20.45
six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
00:20:20.46\00:20:23.65
Good. Now come to the platform.
00:20:23.66\00:20:25.19
Ouch. All right.
00:20:26.22\00:20:28.60
We're gonna stretch
those calves out now.
00:20:28.61\00:20:30.33
Step back, press
the heel to the ground,
00:20:31.57\00:20:34.27
feel the stretch in
the back of your leg.
00:20:35.49\00:20:37.23
That probably should feel
kind of good right about now.
00:20:39.22\00:20:41.11
Hold that for ten more seconds.
00:20:44.83\00:20:46.42
Two, three, four, five,
00:20:47.44\00:20:51.18
six, seven,
eight, nine, ten, switch.
00:20:51.19\00:20:56.57
For those at home and
want to do the calf raises,
00:20:56.58\00:20:58.54
you may need to use a
stair step or piece of wood,
00:20:58.55\00:21:01.72
something that'll
elevate your heels.
00:21:01.73\00:21:03.73
Ten more seconds.
00:21:08.50\00:21:09.53
One, two, three, four, five,
00:21:09.54\00:21:14.64
six, seven, eight, nine and ten.
00:21:14.65\00:21:19.42
Hit the deck,
fellows. On your back.
00:21:20.90\00:21:23.28
We're gonna do
some abdominal crunches.
00:21:24.67\00:21:26.41
Hands behind your neck,
00:21:28.13\00:21:29.98
keep the knees
bent, behind the neck.
00:21:29.99\00:21:32.42
Okay, crunch up. Do 20 of 'em.
00:21:32.43\00:21:36.20
Okay, up down, up
down, up down, up down,
00:21:36.21\00:21:42.83
up down, up down, up down,
00:21:42.84\00:21:47.62
up down, up down,
up down. Ten more.
00:21:47.63\00:21:52.48
Up down, up two,
up three, up four,
00:21:52.49\00:21:58.25
up five, up six, up seven,
00:21:58.26\00:22:02.97
up eight, up nine, up ten.
00:22:02.98\00:22:07.16
Feet off the floor,
cross at the ankles.
00:22:07.17\00:22:08.86
Okay, up down, up down, up down,
00:22:09.91\00:22:15.23
up down, up down. Keep going.
00:22:15.24\00:22:19.30
Down, up down, up down, up down.
00:22:19.31\00:22:24.63
Ten more. Up one, and two,
00:22:24.64\00:22:30.09
three, four, five, six,
00:22:30.10\00:22:35.06
seven, eight, nine, ten.
00:22:35.07\00:22:40.55
Legs straight up. Okay, go.
00:22:40.56\00:22:44.66
One, two, three. Faster, Jason.
00:22:44.67\00:22:48.73
Four, five, six,
00:22:48.74\00:22:52.33
seven, eight,
nine. Home stretch.
00:22:52.34\00:22:57.80
One, two, three, four, five,
00:22:57.81\00:23:04.18
six, seven, eight, nine.
00:23:04.19\00:23:08.85
One more. Ten.
00:23:08.86\00:23:11.52
Ah, over on your stomach.
00:23:11.53\00:23:13.88
Hands behind your back,
lift your chest off the floor.
00:23:18.01\00:23:21.73
Up down, up down, up down,
00:23:21.74\00:23:26.30
up down, up down.
00:23:26.31\00:23:29.27
Keep going, this is
training the lower back area.
00:23:29.28\00:23:31.65
You wanna do
this up doing the abs.
00:23:32.83\00:23:34.82
Help stretch out the
abs and contract the back.
00:23:34.83\00:23:37.19
It's a little more of an
aggressive back exercise.
00:23:38.25\00:23:40.14
You want to be careful
with this one. Eight more.
00:23:40.15\00:23:43.07
One, and two,
and three, and four,
00:23:43.08\00:23:48.87
five, six, seven, eight.
00:23:48.88\00:23:53.30
On your feet. All right.
00:23:53.31\00:23:57.50
Let's turn, and turn,
00:23:57.51\00:24:01.51
and turn, turn, turn,
00:24:04.05\00:24:11.98
turn, and turn. Two more.
00:24:11.99\00:24:19.06
One, and two. Good.
00:24:22.36\00:24:28.26
All right, fellows,
thanks a lot, well done.
00:24:28.27\00:24:30.00
About ten years ago I
was asked to come teach
00:24:32.93\00:24:35.71
a health and wellness class
in a correctional institution.
00:24:35.72\00:24:38.22
Now though I didn't
want to do it at the time
00:24:38.23\00:24:40.52
'cause I didn't have
time, there was gonna be
00:24:40.53\00:24:42.43
like a five hour
journey to go there,
00:24:42.44\00:24:45.15
to go through the prison check,
00:24:45.16\00:24:46.61
security checks,
teach the three hour class
00:24:46.62\00:24:48.61
and come back home again.
00:24:48.62\00:24:49.93
It was on Friday
afternoon and that was a time
00:24:49.94\00:24:52.01
I usually spent working at home.
00:24:52.02\00:24:55.01
And while I was doing that,
00:24:55.02\00:24:56.01
I remember I was out
there mowing one of my fields
00:24:56.02\00:24:57.99
and I heard a
still small voice there,
00:24:58.00\00:24:59.85
I was in prison
and he visited me.
00:24:59.86\00:25:01.77
And I kept trying
to argue with the Lord
00:25:01.78\00:25:03.56
and finally I said even if I go
00:25:03.57\00:25:06.15
and talk to these guys
how many will listen to me?
00:25:06.16\00:25:08.23
He said, "I came
and died for one,
00:25:08.24\00:25:09.65
how many do you need?"
00:25:09.66\00:25:11.05
So I went out
there to teach a class
00:25:11.06\00:25:12.58
in health and
wellness and while the fellows
00:25:12.59\00:25:14.58
who were out there,
I first got out there
00:25:14.59\00:25:16.10
and I saw 18 prisoners
00:25:16.11\00:25:17.51
looking at me and I thought wow,
00:25:17.52\00:25:19.11
am I glad these
guys are in prison,
00:25:19.12\00:25:20.74
they look like a hard bunch.
00:25:20.75\00:25:22.99
Well, by the course of
time I started teaching them
00:25:23.00\00:25:24.84
how to exercise,
training really hard
00:25:24.85\00:25:27.37
with good
intensity and I worked them
00:25:27.38\00:25:29.23
very, very hard but I noticed
about the fifth or sixth week
00:25:29.24\00:25:32.55
that they'd--
I'd got into my class
00:25:32.56\00:25:34.24
and I thought
where'd the prisoners go?
00:25:34.25\00:25:35.82
I mean, there were
still 18 guys looking at me,
00:25:35.83\00:25:38.23
they still had their prison garb
00:25:38.24\00:25:40.36
and their greasy
hair, and their tattoos.
00:25:40.37\00:25:42.48
But somehow they'd all changed.
00:25:42.49\00:25:44.29
No, they hadn't
changed, I had changed.
00:25:44.30\00:25:47.31
I changed the way they
look-- I looked at them.
00:25:47.32\00:25:49.57
And the thing I
found with these guys
00:25:49.58\00:25:51.40
is their whole
life was wrapped around
00:25:51.41\00:25:54.03
their exercise and
whatever else they could do
00:25:54.04\00:25:56.47
to try and get
back any self esteem.
00:25:56.48\00:25:58.56
So while I was working
with these young people,
00:25:58.57\00:26:00.80
well, of course
they were of all ages,
00:26:00.81\00:26:02.59
I was really
encouraging them to train
00:26:02.60\00:26:04.18
for the glory of God and
have a spiritual life as well.
00:26:04.19\00:26:08.21
Well, the reality is
because God had blessed
00:26:08.22\00:26:10.49
this old
weightlifter with some muscles,
00:26:10.50\00:26:12.95
these guys wanted
to be more like me
00:26:12.96\00:26:14.83
and so I knew I had a big
responsibility on my hands.
00:26:14.84\00:26:17.84
Well, the
bottom-line is for three years
00:26:17.85\00:26:20.51
I taught that
class, 54 men came through
00:26:20.52\00:26:23.60
and took my class,
34 of them gave their
00:26:23.61\00:26:25.89
hearts to God
before it was all over.
00:26:25.90\00:26:27.86
That was a very
exciting time in my life
00:26:27.87\00:26:29.90
to see these men's lives change.
00:26:29.91\00:26:32.04
It was a bittersweet time.
00:26:32.05\00:26:33.47
Bitter because it did take
time away from my own family
00:26:33.48\00:26:36.41
but sweet in seeing
the rewards that God had
00:26:36.42\00:26:39.21
for those who were
receptive to his message.
00:26:39.22\00:26:41.66
And I find this in
exercise all across the world
00:26:41.67\00:26:44.65
wherever I go, where people
get obsessed with exercise
00:26:44.66\00:26:48.09
and I say look, I
will help you through
00:26:48.10\00:26:49.48
the exercise
under one condition.
00:26:49.49\00:26:51.28
We're doing this
for the right reason,
00:26:51.29\00:26:53.09
we're not doing this
for self glorification,
00:26:53.10\00:26:55.15
or vanity reason and
yes, I was really locked
00:26:55.16\00:26:58.03
into that at one
time, I was so worried about
00:26:58.04\00:27:00.48
what the world thought of me--
00:27:00.49\00:27:02.14
when I got to the point
where I just didn't care anymore
00:27:02.15\00:27:04.86
that my training was gonna
be all for the glory of God
00:27:04.87\00:27:07.26
because that's what
he encourages us to do,
00:27:07.27\00:27:09.71
I found the blessings
to my workout becoming
00:27:09.72\00:27:12.30
much, much more
abundant and God able to use me.
00:27:12.31\00:27:15.70
God can only take
us where we're at.
00:27:15.71\00:27:18.00
I always think of
the parable of the talent
00:27:18.01\00:27:20.59
when God gives us a
certain amount of talent,
00:27:20.60\00:27:22.71
if we use them wisely
He will bless us abundantly
00:27:22.72\00:27:25.81
and give us so much more
and if we don't use them wisely
00:27:25.82\00:27:28.91
then we actually
lose what we have.
00:27:28.92\00:27:31.58
As I go around and
talk at various churches,
00:27:31.59\00:27:33.52
there's a lot of people who
will try and dismiss exercise
00:27:33.53\00:27:36.29
'cause they think
it's not spiritual.
00:27:36.30\00:27:38.03
Well, I've got news for you,
00:27:38.04\00:27:39.30
God wants us to
have a healthy body,
00:27:39.31\00:27:41.14
in fact He says our body
00:27:41.15\00:27:42.58
is a temple of the Holy
Spirit which is within you.
00:27:42.59\00:27:45.26
Now we're born with the
prize, we're not our own.
00:27:45.27\00:27:47.61
Remember to train
all to the glory of God.
00:27:47.62\00:27:49.57
Well, remember, you can do
00:27:49.58\00:27:50.71
all things through
Christ, who strengthens you.
00:27:50.72\00:27:52.71
God bless you,
I'll see you next time.
00:27:52.72\00:27:54.67
