Gymcels and Christsisters, I have some bad news... Our nubile Harry Potterstein lord forbids the lift."The athletic training is an exhibition of the devil’s work; he it is who twists necks, deforms limbs, and makes men big-bodied... Everything that is unnatural is of the devil."— Tertullian, De Spectaculis (Chapter 18)"Men are tested and prepared for secular combat, and they think it a great glory if they happen to be crowned with the people looking on and the emperor present. But now see a yet greater and more glorious contest for the reward of the heavenly crown, with God looking on our struggles..."— St. Cyprian, Epistle 56 (To Thibaris)
But I bring you good news! Christberg is your new trainer now! "You are about to pass through a noble struggle, in which the living God acts the part of the Judge... Therefore, your Trainer, Jesus Christ, has seen fit to separate you from a life of comfort..."— Tertullian, Ad Martyras (Chapter 3)"The gymnasia are dedicated to their own gods—to Hermes and Hercules. The contests themselves are under the patronage of the dead or of the gods... What is done in the gymnasium is not free from the taint of idolatry: the racing, the throwing, the leaping. The very crowns have a religious meaning."— Tertullian, De Spectaculis (Chapter 11)"The gymnasia are dedicated to their own gods—to Hermes and Hercules. The contests themselves are under the patronage of the dead or of the gods... What is done in the gymnasium is not free from the taint of idolatry: the racing, the throwing, the leaping. The very crowns have a religious meaning."— Tertullian, De Spectaculis (Chapter 11)
Get swole? NO! Instead, let Yeshua fill your hole!"The Greek games, whether in the gymnasia or in the stadiums, are all contaminated by the names of their idols. The contests are celebrated in honor of demons... A Christian cannot, without violating his faith, look upon things that are consecrated to false gods."— Novatian, De Spectaculis (Chapter 4)"Meanwhile, in anxious doubt, you deny yourselves wholesome pleasures; you do not attend the shows; you take no part in the processions... you abhor the sacred games."— Caecilius (the pagan character speaking to the Christian), in Minucius Felix's Octavius (Chapter 12)"You leave this place [the church] where you hear about spiritual things, and you run to the stadium to watch men wrestling, striking one another, and competing for a corruptible crown. There you sit for hours, shouting, praising the body, and inflaming your passions, while the soul is left to starve."— St. John Chrysostom, Homilies on the Statues"Do not wander in the streets, nor gaze at those who live idly... If you are rich, and want to exercise, walk or read. Do not go to the pagan gymnasia, where men strip themselves naked and learn the arts of worldly combat and vanity, which are unbefitting for a servant of God."— Apostolic Constitutions (Book I, Section 3)

If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to them the other cheek also. And if anyone wants to sue you and take your shirt, hand over your coat as well.Matthew 5:44"Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you."1 Peter 2:18>18 Slaves, in reverent fear of God submit yourselves to your masters, not only to those who are good and considerate, but also to those who are harsh.1 Corinthians 1:26-27>26 Brothers and sisters, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

>>539564952I'm gonna be honest. My muscles got a lot bigger and certain lifts in real life are a little easier but I feel like I have more health problems now than before started exercising. I have joint and tendon issues when I never used to. Surprisingly deadlifts never hurt me.
