Strengthen Your Body

 

Strengthening your body is one of the better habits to exercise every day. The Bible encourages us to "run [the race] so as to win... to win an imperishable [crown (heaven)]... do not run aimlessly... drive [your] body and train it, for fear that, after having preached to others, [you] should be disqualified" (1 Corinthians 9:24-27)​. The goal of this habit is to be intentional every day with strengthening your body. Determine what specifically you will do to strengthen your body (working with a personal trainer is recommended), and use habit strategies and these examples to help you strengthen your body every day:

​​​

• Walk

• Train muscles with bodyweight, resistance bands, or weights

• ​Stretch

• Shower or bathe/plunge in cold water
