Chantel Hobbs has written the first exercise book that I can actually get behind. Or rather will make me get rid of some of my behind. I really enjoyed reading "Walk Strong, Look Up". It's a combination of a workout program and a devotional. She combines prayer and exercise which is something that comes quite naturally to me. It usually sounds like "Oh please God don't let me die!" as I am running up a hill. Chantels's method is a wee bit gentler than that.
Everyone can walk. Everyone needs that one on one time with God each day. Combining the two things for me makes perfect sense. She maps out a four week program to get started along with sharing recipes and inspirational stories. It is now my number one reference guide to healthy living. I am on Week 3 and am feeling better everday. My body is getting stronger and my relationship with the Lord is closer.
If your looking for something to jump start you body and your soul, pick up a copy of "Walk Strong, Look Up." It just might change your perspective.
