Hi was just curious to know if there are any other strength trainers or Sports people using this forum.
And if there is, I was wondering if any of you have run in to any conflict as Christians.
As a powerlifter I sometimes struggle with pride being stronger than most and competitive.
Not an arrogant cocky pride, but an "I know Im strong" endorphin testosterone driven feel good type of pride.
Also to sometimes lift a heavy max weight I sometimes have to work myself into a blind rage to get my adrenalin up.
For quite sometime now I have been trying to rectify both of these habits, though I have only had minimal success.
I want to glorify God with the strength he has gifted me, but I still feel like Im only glorifying myself more.
Anyone here understand what Im blabbering on about?
