Fitness and Faith

 Derrick Johnson pt 2

Physical fitness is something that every person, regardless of age, needs to keep up on. When we think of physical fitness, a lot of time we think of dirty gyms, nasty locker rooms, big hunks that smell and look down on anyone that is not like them. Amen.

But it is not that at all.

When I was growing up in high school, I was anything but fit. I played sports, but was not considered an “athlete” by any stretch of the imagination.

But, once I joined the military, they “kind of have a way” of getting you into shape right away. I was impressed with what I had become and decided to continue down that road of physical fitness.

Our guest today is Derrick Johnson, also an Army veteran, a life coach, a trainer and someone who shares his mission of helping others tap into their true potential.  Derrick came also came from a childhood of being bullied and as a shy child. Physical fitness became his outlet.

Now, he helps folks – just like you – to gain the confidence and physical prowess that comes from becoming physical fit. Amen!  Derrick specializes in helping you turn just about any pain in your life into FUEL to help FAITH be your guide through life! Amen!

How does our physical fitness relate to our spirituality?

You share we should make a list of things we DO NOT WANT and the “flip the pain” into fuel to move forward. Can you explain this for us?

I believe one thing we never realize is that we are influencing people all of the time – even when we are not aware of it.  Examples would be our kids, our coworkers, etc.  Share a little bit about how many people may depend on us – some of which we may not even be aware of – and how our fitness level may relate to that…

Should we try achieve a level of fitness that somebody else has? Should that be our goal? Or should we be content with our own fitness goals – even if they are not that impressive to others?

I know you recommend everyone should try to achieve two things in the morning, one physical and one mental, just to motivate ourselves during the day. Can you explain how that would work for our listeners?

How did you get started in this fitness business? What led you to do this?

What is your goal for your business and how do you see yourself achieving this goal?

I know you have a website, FitWithDerrick.com – there are a lot of testimonials on there. Share with us how someone can work with you to improve their fitness level. If someone has a question our would like to reach out to you to receive more information, how can they do that? How can someone get in touch with you?

I’ll put links to all of this in the show notes below.

Derrick, this has been so interesting. I totally agree that fitness, physical, emotional and spiritual fitness, is something each and every person needs to take more seriously.

Folks, as you heard directly from Derrick Johnson, fitness means more than just doing 100 pushups or being able to lift 200 pounds or run a 7 minute mile. Fitness includes our mental acumen and our Spiritual state as well as our fitness level.

Remember, you have a family that is depending on you. You have coworkers who are depending on you. You have YOU that is depending on YOU to make the right choices in life. Physical fitness is one of those choices. Amen!
