#transformationtuesday the road to hell.
I know it because I was on it.
Good intentions galore: started out a social drinker, part time smoker, only kept fun, spontaneous enabling company.
Addictive personality much?
I'm the obsessed type, the all or nothing type, the down a bottle of vodka dashed with cider drink all night and start again in the morning type.
If you ever hear ppl call me Cage (aka Nicolas Cage from Leaving Las Vegas), that's why.
I progressed to a full time smoker, part time drug addict and a keep alcohol on me at all times drinker.
Battling depression, suicidal thoughts, ill health, court battles.
It took my pastor calling me to order saying "you're out of control", for me to wake up.
Enough.
Jesus and gym straight up saved my life.
I've been told I'm addicted to gym... duh, I'm in there 6 days a week hence the hashtag #exerciseEveryday - but I'm clean yo - rather that.
Yea I fell off, a bunch of times, picked myself up.
Got back on, had mediocre results due to poor form, poor exercise programming or poor diet, got depressed, fell off again.
No greatness here, if anything my path has just brought me to my knees sooner than most, later than some.
I'm not proud of all this, but I'm a slave to shame and sin no more.
The Lord is the only reason I'm standing, walking everyday.
I don't have it all on lockdown but I have the tools to make sure I'm a better and better man, husband and father everyday.
I thank God for the privilege to wage the war on darkness in prayer and in the gym.
For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
Ephesians 6:12 NKJV
When you see someone trying, struggling, dying to be better do better everyday, don't laugh, don't knock em. Your encouragement could be the difference between a hard L or a much needed W.
#Chooseday my test is my #testimony
📢📢Hard times make hard men, hard men make soft times, soft times make weak men, weak men make hard times‼️
.
We're in the weak men era and it DOESN'T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY ‼️
.
Instead of BOOZE/VICE choose vulnerability, OWN THAT PAIN you're running from ‼️
.
Instead of being a grown up freaking BABY BOY who needs his BOTTY to TAKE THE EDGE OFF, dive head first INTO the pain and CONQUER IT with self inflicted adversity‼️
.
This nutrition/workout/program thing IS NOT about the looks, i could care less about the looks‼️
.
It is about the DISCIPLINE, MINDSET and HABITS that will make you the man you need to become to THRIVE ‼️
.
We have a community of men on this path, we hold each other up, hold each other ACCOUNTABLE ‼️
.
DM me if you need help in any of these areas
.
And if not, at least WAKE UP, DO AND BE BETTER. The world needs us to.
.
🖕🏽SOFT LIFE ⁉️
.
YOU'RE BETTER THAN THAT
📢📢📢Why force yourself to tolerate parts of yourself you're dissatisfied wit⁉️
.
Most don't believe they're worthy of a flat stomach
.
Always coming up with excuses why they can't have that look and hating on ppl who do
.
He probably spends all day in the gym - nope, 45min max (no cardio)
.
He probably eats salad and veg with protein shake dressing - nope, kota, dombolo, pap, amagwinya, meat (obviously) fast food... I eat whatever i want, cos i understand how it fits my macros and temptation tolerance
.
He's naturally gifted then - nope, runt of the litter and i had to work to get this, even moreso to maintain it
.
Stop making excuses... Step your physical game up and watch how all other areas of your life level up
.
How you do anything is how you do everything
.
Shoot me a DM of you wanna level up‼️

STOP SCAMMING YOURSELF into believing that pikitup truck of a body you have is the one you want, that you love it and are proud of it
