I always keep a copy in my pocket, and I share it with people who are curious about our standards. It has been updated and refreshed to better cope with the challenges and temptations of our day. The new version of For the Strength of Youth is available online in 50 different languages and will also be available in print. It will be a significant help for making choices in your life. Please embrace it as your own and share it with your friends. This new version of For the Strength of Youth is subtitled A Guide for Making Choices. To be very clear, the best guide you can possibly have for making choices is Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the strength of youth. So the purpose of For the Strength of Youth is to point you to Him. It teaches you eternal truths of His restored gospel—truths about who you are, who He is, and what you can accomplish with His strength. It teaches you how to make righteous choices based on those eternal truths.13 It's also important to know what For the Strength of Youth does not do. It doesn't make decisions for you. It doesn't give you a “yes” or “no” about every choice you might ever face. For the Strength of Youth focuses on the foundation for your choices. It focuses on values, principles, and doctrine instead of every specific behavior. The Lord, through His prophets, has always been guiding us in that direction. He is pleading with us to “increase [our] spiritual capacity to receive revelation.”14 He is inviting us to “hear Him.”15 He is calling us to follow Him in higher and holier ways.16 And we are learning in a similar way every week in Come, Follow Me.     ACU Endorsed Charities -------------------------------------------------------- Pre-Born!

Today, our interdenominational Christian ministry serves the poor in primarily 17 countries throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Thanks to our faithful donors, we are able to provide food, housing, healthcare, education, fresh water, emergency relief, micro-enterprise solutions and much more. We are proud to have fed millions of people and provided more than 15.7 billion dollars in aid. Our faith inspires us to be an organization built on compassion, and motivated by love. Our mission is to bring relief to the poorest of the poor in the countries where we serve. We strive to reflect God's unconditional love. It's a sacrificial love that embraces all people regardless of race or religion. We believe that we can show His love by serving the “least of these” on this earth as Christ challenged us to do in Matthew 25. We pray that by God's grace, and with your support, we can continue to bring relief to the suffering and hope to the hopeless.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260802dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, [Jesus] gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people. They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children. Matthew 14:19-21 With Jesus There is Always More With Jesus, there is always more. More than five thousand people were fed with just five loaves and two fish. And there was more food left over than they had at the beginning. This miracle is a big deal. Other than Jesus’ resurrection from the dead, it’s the only miracle recorded in all four gospels. The repetition means Jesus really wants us to know about it. Why? Jesus teaches us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread” (Matthew 6:11). In other words, Christians are to trust God to provide. And what Jesus teaches, he demonstrates by feeding the five thousand. He takes care of us and provides everything we need. This is a simple lesson to learn, but it is difficult to believe. Your sinful nature wants you to think that you take care of yourself. The devil does not want you to trust God. He wants you to trust yourself and say, “My power and the strength of my hands have produced this wealth for me” (Deuteronomy 8:17). But is that true? Who gives you time to work? Who gives you the strength to work? Who gives you the skills to work? “Remember the LORD your God, for it is he who gives you the ability to produce wealth” (Deuteronomy 8:18). Jesus doesn’t work miracles to flaunt his power. He works miracles to show that he is God Almighty in human flesh. Jesus gives health and wealth because that is what Jesus does—he gives. He provides his life, death, and resurrection for your salvation. If he can do that, he can do something as simple as provide daily bread. Because with Jesus, there is always more. Jesus’ compassion for you knows no bounds. No need is too impossible for Christ to meet. No sin is too big for Jesus to forgive. You can trust him with anything and everything! Prayer: Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his mercy endures forever. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Last October, Pastor Wang Lin, one of the leaders in Zion Church in China, was arrested and imprisoned under false charges of "fraud" and "illegal business practices." Sarah Su (Su Ziming in Chinese), wife of Pastor Wang, recounts the day her husband was arrested and the Christian persecution they faced even before he was imprisoned. Sarah will share about her husband's role in Zion Church's leadership and in training other leaders, how the church continues to reach many people despite persecution from the Chinese Communist Party, and recent updates about Pastor Wang's condition in prison. "The moment I married Wang Lin, I have decided to face all this together," Sarah says. "I knew that his mission was to train and disciple more Christians in China…I knew something like [this] would happen one day." You'll hear from Sarah how she continues to face this persecution with courage, faithfully enduring times of worry and loneliness. She will share how she and her husband both are committed to serve the Lord—no matter the cost. Zion Church made international headlines during President Trump's visit to Xi Jinping in Beijing in May and with the release of Zion senior pastor Ezra Jin from prison during America's July 4 celebrations. Sarah thanks God for Jin's release, and says the case against Zion Church continues, with eight church leaders remaining in prison. She asks that we pray for their release, the dismissal of charges, for their physical and spiritual health, and for her and her children, along with family members of the other persecuted Christians from Zion Church. Visit Prisoner Alert to write an encouraging letter to Pastor Wang Lin, and letters to other Christians imprisoned for their faith in Iran, Eritrea, and China.

Our time on this side of eternity is limited. But God gives us exactly enough time to accomplish the purpose(s) He gave us. 

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260801dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field. Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it.” Matthew 13:44-46 Treasure Discovering a hidden treasure is a common dream. Wouldn’t it be great to instantly be wealthy beyond anything you could have imagined? In the first story of today’s Bible reading, Jesus tells us about someone who, finds buried treasure. In ancient times, rich people were known to divide their wealth into three parts: one for doing business, another converted to precious stones with which to flee, and, if necessary, a third part to be buried in a safe place. So, it could happen that when a rich man died, his buried wealth would remain to be found by some fortunate individual. In the second brief story, Jesus speaks of a pearl merchant whose life’s mission was to seek out exceptional pearls and obtain them. Some tirelessly seek treasure, and others just fortunately find it. But the most valuable treasure is that which Jesus has for us. This treasure Jesus tells us is the “kingdom of heaven.” The kingdom is Jesus’ rule in our hearts by faith. When Jesus rules our hearts, when our faith is in him, then we have the treasure of the forgiveness of sins, spiritual life, and eternal salvation—we will enjoy the glories of heaven forever. Still, we don’t have to wait to enjoy this precious treasure. With faith in Jesus comes the peace of knowing we are God’s dear children right now, the hope of present certainty for a blessed future, and the joy of knowing God loves us today, tomorrow, and always. So, whether you stumble upon earthly treasure or spend your life seeking after it, what really matters is that you have the treasure of Jesus. It’s worth giving up everything to make it your own. Prayer: Lord, lead us to the treasure that is Jesus and help us to treasure that treasure above all things. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Performance debt builds while you are still succeeding. Learn how hidden costs erode your clarity, recovery, relationships, and future capacity. Performance Debt: Why Success Can Hide the Warning Signs The most dangerous stage of burnout is not when you can no longer perform. It is when you are still performing well enough to believe nothing is wrong. You are still working. Still training. Still handling problems. People continue to depend on you because you have given them every reason to believe you can carry the weight. But something has changed. Decisions require more effort. Your patience is thinner. Training feels mechanical rather than energizing. You are physically present with the people who matter, but part of you is somewhere else—recovering from the day or preparing for the next demand. Nothing has collapsed, so you tell yourself you are fine. That is how performance debt remains hidden. What Is Performance Debt? Performance debt is the accumulated cost of repeatedly sacrificing recovery, alignment, emotional regulation, and sustainable habits to maintain short-term performance. Put more simply, it is what builds when you keep borrowing from your future capacity to perform today. One difficult week does not necessarily create the problem. There will always be seasons that require longer hours, harder training, greater responsibility, and a willingness to push beyond what feels comfortable. Human performance depends partly on our capacity to rise when the moment demands it. The debt begins when the exception becomes the operating model. You stop recovering fully because there is always another deadline. You ignore physical warning signs because the workout still gets completed. You suppress frustration because other people need you to remain composed. You continue carrying responsibilities that should have been shared, changed, or released. Each decision appears reasonable by itself. Collectively, they begin consuming the capacity required to sustain the life you have built. Why Success Conceals the Cost Visible output is a lagging indicator. It tells you what you produced, but it does not reveal what producing it required. You can meet the deadline while losing strategic clarity. You can complete the workout while recovering more slowly. You can take care of everyone around you while becoming increasingly disconnected from yourself. This is especially dangerous for capable men because competence creates room for compensation. Your intelligence helps you solve problems even when your focus is deteriorating. Discipline allows you to override fatigue. Responsibility gives you an honorable reason to continue. Emotional control helps you conceal the pressure from everyone around you. The very qualities that helped you succeed can become the qualities that hide your performance debt. Other people may even reinforce the pattern. They praise your dependability, admire your work ethic, and continue bringing you problems because you always find a way to handle them. They benefit from your output without seeing its private cost. Eventually, “I am the man who handles it” becomes more than a statement of capability. It becomes a role you are afraid to question. The Interest Payments Begin Before Burnout Performance debt rarely announces itself through one dramatic event. It collects interest through small changes you can easily rationalize. Mentally, decisions take longer and your strategic range begins to narrow. You remain capable of solving immediate problems, but it becomes harder to step back, consider alternatives, or see beyond the next demand. Emotionally, irritability increases while your emotional range flattens. You may believe you are remaining controlled, but the people closest to you experience that control as distance, impatience, or withdrawal. Physically, sleep provides less restoration. Soreness lingers. Your nervous system stays activated even when the external demand has ended. You continue training, but the session becomes another obligation rather than a practice that builds strength and restores connection. Relationally, conversations start feeling like additional demands. The people you care about receive your presence in fragments and whatever energy remains after work, responsibility, and internal pressure have taken their share. None of these signals proves that you are failing. They reveal that maintaining your current level of performance is becoming more expensive.

Performance debt is the accumulating liability. Burnout is one possible consequence when that liability can no longer be hidden, carried, or serviced. The debt begins much earlier—often while a man is still succeeding and receiving praise for how well he is handling everything. This distinction matters because it creates an opportunity for earlier recognition. You do not need to diagnose every difficult month as burnout. You also do not need to wait until you are exhausted, disengaged, or unable to function before admitting that your way of operating has become unsustainable. Performance debt accumulates before performance visibly declines. Recognizing it early allows you to protect capacity instead of waiting until you must rebuild after a breakdown. What Physical Training Reveals About Sustainable Performance Physical training makes this principle difficult to deny. A demanding CrossFit session, a heavy strength cycle, or a steep mountain climb creates stress. When that stress is followed by adequate recovery, the body adapts. Muscle is rebuilt, movement becomes more efficient, and your capacity increases. But repeated overload without sufficient recovery produces a different result. Movement begins to compensate. Technique deteriorates. Soreness remains longer. The body finds ways to complete the work, but those compensations quietly increase the risk of injury. You may still finish the workout. That does not mean the training is producing the intended adaptation. The same thing happens mentally and emotionally. You compensate for reduced clarity by working longer. You compensate for exhaustion with caffeine, urgency, and adrenaline. You compensate for emotional disconnection by becoming more controlled and task-oriented. For a while, the compensation works. Eventually, it becomes another source of strain. The body does not interpret relentless pressure as character. It responds according to stress, capacity, recovery, and adaptation. Your mind, emotional system, and relationships are not exempt from that equation. Strength creates growth when paired with recovery. Without recovery, strength begins consuming itself. When Your Best Qualities Become Expensive Discipline is not the enemy. Responsibility is not the enemy. Resilience and emotional control are not the enemy. The problem is what happens when these strengths operate without discernment. Discipline without recovery becomes self-neglect. Responsibility without boundaries becomes overfunctioning. Emotional control without connection becomes withdrawal. Resilience without discernment becomes the ability to tolerate conditions that should have been confronted or changed. A strength is valuable because it serves a meaningful purpose. When it is used automatically—regardless of context, cost, or consequence—it stops being a conscious strength and becomes an identity-driven pattern. You may recognize this during training. There are days when pushing through discomfort builds confidence and capacity. There are other days when pushing through is simply an unwillingness to admit that your body needs a different response. The movement may look identical from the outside. The internal truth is completely different. The same discernment must be applied to the rest of your life. Carrying more is not always evidence that you are becoming stronger. Sometimes it is evidence that you have not permitted yourself to put anything down. Recovery Alone Will Not Eliminate the Debt A weekend away may reduce immediate strain. A lighter training week may help your body recover. A vacation may create enough distance for you to breathe again. Those things matter, but temporary recovery does not automatically change the pattern that created the debt. If your identity still depends on being needed, you will return and begin carrying everything again. If you believe rest must be earned, recovery will remain the first thing sacrificed when pressure rises. If your worth is tied to output, any reduction in activity will feel like weakness rather than intelligent performance management. You do not eliminate financial debt by making one payment while continuing the same spending pattern. Performance debt works the same way. Recovery must be accompanied by a change in how performance is produced. That may require clearer boundaries, different priorities, more honest communication, better physical recovery, or the willingness to question goals that no longer align with the man you are becoming. The objective is not temporary relief. It is a more sustainable operating model. Audit the Cost Beneath Your Results Begin with the question most high performers already ask: What results am I producing? Answer it honestly and factually. Look at your work, training, responsibilities, relationships, and commitments. Acknowledge what is functioning without minimizing your accomplishments. Then ask the question that is usually ignored: What is it costing me to produce these results? Look beyond time and effort. Consider the mental, emotional, physical, and relational costs. Where are the interest payments appearing first? What feels heavier, slower, flatter, or more reactive than it did six months ago? Finally, ask: Is my current way of operating sustainable? Do not base your answer on whether you can survive another week. You probably can. Ask whether the same model can support your health, performance, relationships, and sense of purpose for the next year. There is also a fourth question, and it may be the most revealing: What have I already noticed but continued to override? Performance debt loses much of its power when the cost becomes visible and specific. You can no longer call the pattern strength once you clearly see how it is consuming the very capacity that strength is supposed to protect. Sustainable Performance Requires Integrated Strength The answer is not to become less ambitious, less disciplined, or less capable. It is to stop using your capability in a way that steadily destroys your capacity. Sustainable human performance requires pressure and recovery, discipline and discernment, responsibility and boundaries, control and connection. These qualities are not opposites. They are complementary forces that keep strength from becoming fragmented. Imagine carrying the same important responsibilities without the constant internal friction. Imagine training hard while knowing when intensity builds capacity and when it merely feeds an outdated identity. Imagine being present with the people who matter without feeling that their needs are another demand you must manage. That is not reduced performance. It is performance built on a stronger foundation. Your ability to keep going is not proof that your current way of operating is sustainable. The deeper measure is whether your physical strength, mental clarity, emotional resilience, relationships, and sense of purpose remain available while you pursue what matters. Your future capacity is not an unlimited line of credit. The work is not simply to keep performing. It is to become the man who can sustain what matters without consuming himself to do it. Rebuild the Capacity Beneath Your Performance If you recognize the hidden cost beneath your results, the Resilient Man Framework will help you examine the structure supporting your performance. It is built around four interconnected areas—physical strength, mental clarity, emotional resilience, and meaningful purpose—so you can identify where performance debt is accumulating and begin creating strength that remains available when pressure rises. Frequently Asked Questions What is performance debt in simple terms? Performance debt is the hidden cost that accumulates when you repeatedly sacrifice recovery, clarity, emotional regulation, relationships, or alignment to maintain immediate results. It is similar to borrowing money: you receive something useful today but create an obligation that must eventually be repaid. The difference is that the repayment may appear as mental fatigue, slower physical recovery, irritability, reduced focus, or burnout. One intense period does not automatically create debt. The problem develops when borrowing from future capacity becomes your normal way of performing. How is performance debt different from burnout? Performance debt begins while you are still functioning and may still be performing successfully. Burnout is one possible later consequence when the accumulated cost becomes too large to hide or manage. A person carrying debt may continue meeting deadlines, training, leading, and fulfilling responsibilities, although doing so requires increasing effort. Someone experiencing burnout may show more visible exhaustion, detachment, cynicism, or reduced effectiveness. The distinction matters because recognizing the accumulating cost early creates an opportunity to adjust before a significant decline or breakdown occurs. What are the early warning signs of performance debt? Early signs include needing more effort to produce the same result, slower decisions, fragmented focus, lingering physical soreness, reduced patience, emotional withdrawal, and difficulty being present in relationships. You may also notice that training feels mechanical, sleep restores less energy, or time away provides only temporary relief. None of these signs alone confirms a serious problem. The meaningful pattern is a rising internal cost combined with continued external performance. When several areas begin deteriorating while output remains intact, your operating model deserves an honest examination. Can discipline contribute to performance debt? Discipline can contribute when it is used to override every physical, emotional, or relational signal instead of helping you respond intelligently. Healthy discipline supports consistent action, recovery, and meaningful priorities. Misaligned discipline treats rest as weakness, ignores declining capacity, and demands continued output regardless of the cost. The issue is not discipline itself but discipline without discernment. A demanding workout can develop resilience when the body is prepared for it. The same workout can deepen exhaustion when it is performed only to prove that you never back down. Can rest eliminate accumulated performance debt? Rest can reduce immediate strain, but it may not correct the pattern responsible for the debt. A vacation, deload week, or quiet weekend can restore some energy. However, if you return to unclear boundaries, excessive responsibility, emotional suppression, or an identity built entirely around achievement, the same debt will begin accumulating again. Sustainable recovery requires both restoration and recalibration. You must restore neglected capacity while changing how you produce results. Otherwise, rest becomes a temporary payment made against a liability that continues growing. How can I begin reducing performance debt? Start by identifying what your current results are costing you mentally, physically, emotionally, and relationally. Notice where the interest appears first and which warning signs you have been overriding because you can still function. Next, distinguish temporary demands from recurring patterns. Reducing the debt may involve better recovery, clearer boundaries, fewer unnecessary commitments, honest conversations, or changing goals that no longer fit. The purpose is not to withdraw from challenge. It is to create an integrated way of performing that builds capacity instead of continually borrowing from it.

We'll explore practical truths about admitting when things are bigger than us and discovering how those impossible places can actually strengthen our dependence on God.Join us as we pray and encourage one another to stop rehearsing our challenges and instead start declaring God's power over every impossible moment.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260731dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion [Jesus said] “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he had and bought that field.” Matthew 13:44 The Treasure A man by the name of Edward Doheny [pronounced Doh-HEE-nee] has just arrived in California. The year is 1892. Doheny is a drifter. He’s worked as a mule driver, a fruit packer, and even a singing waiter. But nothing has panned out. His financial future looks grim. One day, you’re walking through town and see a strange thing. You see Doheny digging a hole with a pick and a shovel. Turns out he’s put down all the money he can on some vacant lot just so he can dig there. You roll your eyes. You think to yourself, “I guess desperate drifters do desperate things.” You keep walking. But desperate drifter Edward Doheny knows something you do not know. He spotted a black, thick goo seeping up into this vacant lot. He also has a hunch that people will soon pay money for this thick goo. He’s right. Here, on this lot, he strikes oil. He sets up his first oil well—the first of many. As a result, Edward Doheny becomes one of the wealthiest men in the world. Jesus tells a similar story: A man finds a hidden treasure in a field. When he does, he sells all he has to buy that field. Think about that for a moment. Imagine what his friends and neighbors are thinking. Imagine how silly and foolish they presume he is—how skewed and confused his priorities appear. But he knows something they do not know. He knows about the treasure. Which brings us to your life and mine. The culture around us may often smirk at us in polite contempt. In a society where pleasure, money, recognition, entertainment, and power are the stuff of life, the priorities of a Christian often seem quaint, clueless, even stupid. But we know something others do not yet know. We know about the treasure. We know about Jesus. We know about the priceless riches of forgiveness, peace, purpose, security, and meaning we possess in him. In addition, we know this treasure lasts not only for this life; it is eternal. Prayer: Jesus, priceless treasure, keep me close to you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

Coach Caroline and Coach Valerie dig deep into why drills matter so much in the RunRx method and why they are not just an extra add-on before a run. Valerie explains that drills are part of the foundation of better running because they prepare the body for the movement pattern you are about to do, help you understand what your body feels like on a given day, and give you a way to train running without automatically jumping straight into miles. In this episode, the conversation focuses on movement preparation, not just workout volume, and why so many runners feel better when they stop treating the first mile as their only warmup and start thinking about drills as real training.The discussion also shows why running is a skill and not just a fitness activity. Caroline and Valerie talk about how runners often want to “just run,” but if the body has not been prepared first, that run can feel awkward, inefficient, uncomfortable, or even painful. Valerie compares running to other sports like swimming, football, and pickleball, where warmups and drill work are always part of the training process. She explains that drills help build muscle elasticity, improve the running pose, support better balance and movement, and give runners a smarter way to progress instead of simply piling on more miles. If you have ever felt stuck, unsure what warmup to do, or frustrated because your runs do not feel smooth, this episode gives a clear reason to slow down and train the movement before asking for more distance.▶️ Free 30-Day RunRX Reboot — Skill, Strength & Self-Care https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a0N-GZ0AosI&list=PLDPcF8ZrDdILC8bYyn2zR-4xvqKRzp2re▶️ Join the RunRX Membership https://runrx.fit/join-runrxstrongWebsite: https://runrx.fit App: RunRx Academy — search “RunRx Academy” on Apple App Store or Google Play Support email: support@runrx.fit

1 The words of King Lemuel—the revelation which his mother taught him: 2 “Oh, my son! Oh, son of my womb! Oh, son of my vows! 3 Don't give your strength to women, nor your ways to that which destroys kings. 4 It is not for kings, Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine, nor for princes to say, ‘Where is strong drink?' 5 lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to anyone who is afflicted. 6 Give strong drink to him who is ready to perish, and wine to the bitter in soul. 7 Let him drink, and forget his poverty, and remember his misery no more. 8 Open your mouth for the mute, in the cause of all who are left desolate. 9 Open your mouth, judge righteously, and serve justice to the poor and needy.” 10 *Who can find a worthy woman? For her value is far above rubies. 11 The heart of her husband trusts in her. He shall have no lack of gain. 12 She does him good, and not harm, all the days of her life. 13 She seeks wool and flax, and works eagerly with her hands. 14 She is like the merchant ships. She brings her bread from afar. 15 She rises also while it is yet night, gives food to her household, and portions for her servant girls. 16 She considers a field, and buys it. With the fruit of her hands, she plants a vineyard. 17 She arms her waist with strength, and makes her arms strong. 18 She perceives that her merchandise is profitable. Her lamp doesn't go out by night. 19 She lays her hands to the distaff, and her hands hold the spindle. 20 She opens her arms to the poor; yes, she extends her hands to the needy. 21 She is not afraid of the snow for her household, for all her household are clothed with scarlet. 22 She makes for herself carpets of tapestry. Her clothing is fine linen and purple. 23 Her husband is respected in the gates, when he sits among the elders of the land. 24 She makes linen garments and sells them, and delivers sashes to the merchant. 25 Strength and dignity are her clothing. She laughs at the time to come. 26 She opens her mouth with wisdom. Kind instruction is on her tongue. 27 She looks well to the ways of her household, and doesn't eat the bread of idleness. 28 Her children rise up and call her blessed. Her husband also praises her: 29 “Many women do noble things, but you excel them all.” 30 Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain; but a woman who fears Yahweh, she shall be praised. 31 Give her of the fruit of her hands! Let her works praise her in the gates! Listen Subscribe: Proverbs Daily Podcast Psalms Daily Podcast

When most runners think about strength training, they immediately picture squats, lunges, and deadlifts. After all, running is a leg sport... right?Not exactly.In this episode, Kevin and I are breaking down one of the biggest misconceptions in running: that your upper body doesn't matter. I'm sharing why building strength in your shoulders, back, chest, and core can actually help you run more efficiently, maintain better posture, breathe easier, and reduce unnecessary stress on your lower back. If you've skipped upper body training because you thought it wasn't important or worried it would make you bulky, I think this conversation might change your mind.We also talk about how often runners should train their upper body, how much weight you actually need to use, and why chasing endless high-rep workouts isn't the answer. I'll finish by walking you through my favorite upper body exercises for runners and explain exactly why each one deserves a place in your training. My goal isn't to help you become a bodybuilder. It's to help you become a stronger, healthier, more resilient runner.00:48 Pushup Myth Busted02:10 Strength vs Mass Debate04:57 Running Economy Basics07:17 Arm Swing Mechanics13:02 Posture and Breathing18:06 Spine Rotation Stress24:11 Breathing Mobility Fixes28:11 How Often to Lift29:47 Sets Reps and Load36:20 Bone Density Benefits39:47 Push Pull Framework40:59 Exercise 1 Dumbbell Row42:38 Row Form Cues43:27 Pushup Alternatives47:01 Face Pull Posture Fix49:34 Pulldown vs Pullup52:14 Overhead Press Setup56:18 Triceps Work Options01:00:32 Pallof Press Anti Twist01:03:16 Band Pull Aparts01:04:39 Dead Bug Coordination01:07:20 Farmers Carry Posture01:09:17 Build Your Routine01:11:16 Rotator Cuff BonusGain access to my new secret podcast, Unbreakable: The Runner's Guide To Injury-Proofing Your Body After 40.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260730dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion …so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life. 1 Timothy 6:19 Truly Life For decades, Peggy Lee was a fixture in American pop culture. Called “The Queen of American Pop Music,” she performed on stage, on television, and in the movies. For example, you can hear her voice and her songs all through the Disney classic, “Lady and the Tramp.” For all the joy she brought, however, perhaps her most memorable song is one that is not joyful at all. In 1969, she recorded a song entitled “Is That All There Is?” In it, a woman reflects on past events in her life, from the loss of her childhood home to going to the circus with her father, and her first romantic love. After each event, she asks herself, “Is that all there is?” She knows that something is missing, but she doesn't know what. And as she looks to the end of her life, she’s convinced that, in her final moments, she'll ask the same question: “Is that all there is?” The song earned Peggy Lee a Grammy Award. It also reached the top of the charts. Clearly, the song had struck a nerve. It still does today. In the closing sentences of the apostle Paul’s first letter to Timothy, he reminds us not to look to the things of this world. Don’t look to the things of this world for security, for fulfillment, for meaning, for identity. Not only are the things of this world uncertain; even if they surround us until the day we die, they offer nothing that lasts. In the end, all we will have is the question, “Is that all there is?” Enter our Creator. Enter God the Son. Enter Jesus. On our behalf, our Savior did what he had to do to rescue us from an empty, pointless existence. His perfect life and death in our place pulled us out of our darkness and back into his light. For now, in him, not only do we bask in his forgiveness; in him, we are once again what he created us to be. We are in the family of God. And because we are, we now have the life that is truly life. Prayer: Lord, in you alone I possess the life that is truly life. Thank you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260729dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant. 1 Timothy 6:17 Arrogance Max Roser does research. He researches the wide variety of living conditions that people experience around the world. He also offers some perspective. For instance, Roser has this to say about living conditions that many of us accept as ordinary. He writes: “What many people in wealthy countries regard as ordinary—electricity at the flip of a switch, clean water from a tap, refrigeration, antibiotics, hot showers, flush toilets, and abundant food—would have been luxuries unavailable not only to most people alive today, but to kings and queens for most of human history.” Let that quote sink in for just a moment. The luxuries and conveniences many of us take for granted are not only inconceivable to millions of people around the world; these luxuries and conveniences were not available even to the richest kings and queens of the past. It also means that when the apostle Paul was speaking about “those who are rich,” he was speaking about people who could not even imagine the kind of ordinary wealth many of us enjoy in the 21st Century. In other words, many of us are far, far, far richer than “the rich” of Paul’s day. When God’s Word, therefore, says, “Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant,” you and I cannot immediately presume that this does not apply to us. In fact, in all likelihood, it does. If I am, indeed, rich by historical standards of living, how might I slip into arrogance? I may not display arrogance like some stereotypical rich man from an old movie—smoking a big cigar while I count my money, barking out orders, looking down my nose at others. In my ordinary comforts, conveniences, and luxuries, however, I can begin to insulate myself from the desperate, constant need for Jesus in my life. Such arrogance can be lethal. Regardless of my wealth, or lack of it, my need for Jesus is urgent and is real. I need him now and always. He came to take away the sins of the world. Even the sins of the rich. Even mine. Prayer: Lord, remove my arrogance. Empower me to grasp my constant need for you. Amen. Daily Devotions is brought to you by WELS.

In this episode of American Potential, host David From sits down with Army veteran Bryan Anderson to share an extraordinary story of resilience, perspective, and purpose. After enlisting on September 11th, Bryan served in Iraq where an IED explosion changed his life forever—leaving him a triple amputee. But what followed is a story not of defeat, but of determination. From recovery at Walter Reed to becoming a motivational speaker, actor, and advocate, Bryan refused to let his injuries define his future. He shares powerful lessons about mindset, overcoming adversity, and finding meaning in life's toughest moments—emphasizing that happiness comes not from what we lack, but from how we choose to live. This episode is a deeply inspiring reminder that even in life's darkest moments, strength, purpose, and positivity can lead to an extraordinary life.

MAPS Upper Lower — https://mapsupperlower.com (code: launch)Most people over 30 who try to lose fat end up in one of three traps: they lose the weight and gain it all back, they lose muscle along with the fat and end up softer and slower than before, or they hit a wall and feel like their body just refuses to cooperate. In this episode, Sal, Adam, and Justin lay out the six things the fitness industry consistently leaves out of the fat loss conversation, and why ignoring them is exactly what keeps you stuck.   The biggest shift you need to make? Stop treating fat loss like a demolition job and start treating it like a sculpture. Sal breaks down why protecting muscle is the single most important variable in any fat loss phase, using a side-by-side comparison that makes it crystal clear: a woman who loses 38 pounds of pure fat will look dramatically leaner than one who loses 50 pounds on the scale but sheds 20 of those pounds as muscle. The math on metabolism, body composition, and long-term sustainability all point the same direction.   Cardio for fat loss is the next myth on the chopping block. The guys explain why all exercise produces athletic performance adaptations, not fat loss, and why chasing cardio in a calorie deficit is a near-guaranteed recipe for muscle loss, metabolic slowdown, and the rebound. Strength training wins because it tells your body to stay strong, and that signal is what keeps the fat loss coming from the right place.   They also cover why protein and whole foods are your best dietary lever, why recovery needs to be treated as adaptation not just healing, and why cutting calories AND ramping up training volume at the same time is one of the most common and costly mistakes you can make. If you are over 30 and frustrated with your results, this episode gives you the framework to finally make it work and make it last.   CHAPTERS 0:27 Intro and MAPS Upper Lower announcement 0:48 Sponsor: Seed probiotic 1:53 Six things nobody tells you: overview 2:34 Tip 1: Protect muscle above all else 4:26 The sculptor analogy: chiseling vs. chainsaw 5:50 Side-by-side fat loss comparison 11:02 Tip 2: Cardio is not a fat loss tool 12:17 Why all exercise produces athletic adaptations, not fat loss 16:52 Tip 3: Prioritize protein and whole foods 19:49 Tip 4: Recovery means adaptation, not just healing 20:50 Why recovery becomes more critical after 30 23:36 The ideal fat loss training routine and MAPS Upper Lower   IN THIS EPISODE • When you lose 10% of your body weight without protecting muscle, roughly 40% of that loss typically comes from muscle, tanking your metabolism and setting up the rebound. • A woman who loses 38 pounds of pure fat will look leaner, be more shapely, and eat far more to maintain than a woman who loses 50 pounds but sheds 20 of those as muscle. • Muscle takes up roughly three quarters of the space that the same mass of body fat does, so adding muscle while losing fat makes you look smaller and more defined even if the scale barely moves. • No form of exercise is inherently for fat loss: cardio produces endurance adaptations, strength training produces strength adaptations, and those downstream effects determine how much of your weight loss comes from fat versus muscle. • Cardio in a calorie deficit signals the body to become efficient and shed calorie-burning muscle, while strength training signals the body to stay strong and preserve it. • Hitting one gram of protein per pound of target body weight from whole natural foods causes calories to drop naturally without the miserable feeling of dieting, and the occasional calorie overage ends up building muscle instead of storing as fat. • Recovery should be framed as adaptation: the workout is just the signal, and without sufficient recovery, all you have added is stress, not results.   Products: MAPS Upper Lower — https://mapsupperlower.com (code: launch)   Sponsors: Seed — seed.com/mindpump (code: 25MINDPUMP)

Bill Parisi breaks down why strength training alone won't make you athletic—and how too much predictable, sagittal-plane training may contribute to stiffness and injury. We get into fascia, connective tissue, breathing, tissue preparation, pulsing stiffness, and why the best athletes have to create and release tension in milliseconds. Bill also shares the 15-minute warmup system he says gets a 98% success rate with athletes of any age.Special perks for our listeners below!

If you train high school athletes like Division I pros, you are destroying their potential. For 13 years at Wisconsin, Brian Bott built NFL offensive linemen and Rose Bowl champions using old-school grit—only to realize that the biggest mistake strength coaches make is confusing intensity with actual development. Bott reveals the hard-earned wisdom behind taking a 13-year-old from a broken squat pattern to a 500-pound lift, detailing why chasing glitzy speed drills over raw force production dooms young athletes to failure. He breaks down the exact conjugate framework he uses to build armor, protect fragile backs, and teach high schoolers how to handle brutal, back-to-back stress so they dominate when November comes. INSIDE THIS CONVERSATION Fixing Broken Movement: Why correcting bad motor patterns takes eight weeks—and why Bott would rather train a blank slate than a kid taught the wrong way. The 2010 Programming Shift: How Wisconsin linemen front squatted heavy during spring scrimmage weeks so they could survive the physical demands of late-season Big Ten football. Basketball vs. Football Wear and Tear: Why high school basketball players often sustain more back compression issues from repeated landings than football players do from squatting. Auto-Regulating Dynamic Effort: How to adjust speed work using bar velocity and readiness when athletes are drained from school, practice, and life stress. Minimal-Dose In-Season Training: The strategy that eliminates unnecessary accessory work to preserve shoulders while continuing to build real power. MEET THE GUEST Brian Bott spent 13 seasons as an Assistant Strength Coach for the University of Wisconsin Badgers, contributing to three Big Ten Championships, three Rose Bowl appearances, and developing elite NFL talent including Joe Thomas, J.J. Watt, and Russell Wilson. As the owner of Sports AdvantEdge—now expanded across seven locations—and Head Strength Coach for LOVB Madison, Bott has spent more than 25 years developing resilient, high-performance athletes through battle-tested conjugate methods and uncompromising technique.
