I’m a fan of Ty Gibson. He has an amazing way to talk about the things that really matter.  Recently, I came across one of his short article’s and my mind was blown.

Here’s an excerpt. You may have to read it twice, I did.

“The dark mental enterprise is encapsulated in God’s penetrating diagnostic question to Job: “Would you condemn Me that you may be justified?” (Job 40:8).

Here God puts His finger on our most sensitive nerve. We blame God as a self-justification maneuver. The guilty conscience possesses an impulse to fabricate an image of God that resembles ourselves in order to evade the shame His perfect goodness would thrust upon us if we were to allow ourselves to be confronted by it in one quantum leap of consciousness. “If God is like me,” we subconsciously reason, “then I need not be any different than I am, and I need not feel guilty for the way I am.” My actions and attitudes are justified by attributing them to God.”

Blame, challenges, exercise, sore, squats, Tired

I would like to blame today’s workout on Jess @PT Contender and FitnessGrad. I don’t suggest you copy this but maybe you can find some ideas for your own workout. Remember, you do you, know what you can do, what your limits are, and be safe out there. Also, regardless of where you are in your fitness journey, put your blankety blank blank weights away when you are done with them.

I missed the gym the last two days so it was kind of a catch up day. Plus it’s a good way to diffuse the stress of the week and be ready for tomorrow which will be super busy. So this was my workout.

  • Spin 50 min
  • 500 squats (25 sets of 20 spread out through workout; I alternate between one squat set then another exercise and two squat sets then another exercise)
  • Planks for 45s and Shoulder tap planks for 10 reps – I did this combination about six times throughout the workout)
  • Shoulder raises- side 20 reps x 2 each
  • Shoulder raises- rear 20 reps x 2
  • Dumbell Rows 20 x 2
  • Bench press 20 x 2
  • Shoulder press 15 x 1, 10 x 1
  • Cable crossover 20 x 2
  • Pull ups 8 x 2
  • Dips 10 x 2

I came home to avocado roll because my wife loves me. Now I am so very sleepy.

Little Red Survivor hits the nail on the head describing false guilt and responsibilities we weren’t meant to bear.

When I was five years old, I was standing outside the swimming pool when my mother asked me to watch my one year old brother while she went inside to get my new born sister who was crying. I watched my brother faithfully. I watched him flip over on his little paddle board. I watched […]
