Fight The Good Fight Every Moment

Does every day seem like a fight?


Well in reality - it is.


I love 80's rock. As my wife will tell you, I know the words to ALL the songs and quote them all the time. The group Triumph has a song called "Fight the Good Fight."


Here's a quote...


Nothing is easy, nothing good is free

But I can tell you where to start

Take a look inside your heart

There's an answer in your heart


Fight the good fight every moment

Every minute every day

Fight the good fight every moment

Make it worth the price we pay


Some things in life are worth fighting for.


This world is not fair. It is an uphill battle fighting for the things that matter.


Things like...


  • A strong marriage
  • Raising good kids
  • Helping those in need
  • Maintaining friendships
  • Keeping your finances on order


It's not easy. In fact, often times it is downright hard. But it's worth it.


The women's basketball coach at Duke hits the nail on the head when it comes to fighting the good fight.  Check out this great video from a recent message to her players.


Getting in good shape and being healthy are super important because ALL of the above things suffer when your health isn't up to par.


It's hard to be your BEST for others when you feel like crap. You feel less and less like fighting the good fight.


I used to exercise primarily to look good for the ladies at the single's bars. But now that I'm older I have different values. It's not about me anymore.


Now it's all about...


  • Having energy for my family, friends and clients...showing up to give them my A-game
  • A sharper focused mind to make better decisions with my business and finances.
  • Physical endurance to make it through challenging days.
  • Mental toughness to handle the challenges of life.


Each day I want to go out and be a difference maker. I cannot do that without being in good health.


That is why I fight by showing up and doing my best for those people God has put in my life.


How about you?


What or who do you want to fight for?


Are you still in the fight or do you need to get back in it?


Getting fit is a spark that will reignite the fight in you.


Sometimes you just need someone to light the fuse.

Dedicated to helping you fight the good fight!

It Takes Courage to SEE BEAUTIFUL

By Puravida Fitness • October 30, 2024
Yesterday was the 40th running of the Twin Cities Marathon - The Most Beautiful Urban Marathon in America! If you are like me, you stop everything to take it all in. Marathon Day is one of my favorite days of the year! A happy place! So much goodness packed into one perfect fall day! And yesterday was no exception! 34 years ago my friend and I were curious. What is the marathon anyway? It was hard to visualize people running 26.2 miles from the Metrodome in Minneapolis to the Capitol in St. Paul. So without the assistance of Google maps, runner tracking apps or cell phones, we headed to St. Paul to "find the marathon." We rolled down our windows, drove up the Snelling Avenue hill and listened for people cheering. Sure enough we found it!

Those Who Stay Will Become Champions

By Puravida Fitness • September 12, 2024
This is a sign that hung in my college football weight room. It meant a lot to me. It's what motivated me to put in extra work and ultimately become a scholarship athlete and starting offensive guard on the football team. It wasn't always like that though. My life could have been drastically different - and not for the better.
