Ten Commandments Of Lifting Weights

"At one time or another you've heard the adage, "no pain, no gain." This simple but yet revealing statement brings to mind that without effort you will have no gain or have the end results you hope for. The act of suffering as revealed by Christ in His crucifixion communicates to all humanity the following point: unless we take up our cross and understand the role of redemptive suffering in our lives, we will never truly understand the free gift of grace God has given us through His Son Jesus Christ. In his book The Ten Commandments of Lifting Weights Jared Zimmerer deftly touches upon an area of life not often associated with living a moral virtuous life e.g. lifting weights. Jared clearly articulates to the reader the profound impact weightlifting can have in our lives when applying the basic principles of the Ten Commandments as guideposts to spiritual and physical well-being. This book is a "must read" for every coach, trainer, young man or woman desiring authentic, Catholic Christian principles in a weightlifting environment." - Marlon De La Torre MA, MEd. Director of Catechist Formation and Children's Catechesis, Fort Worth Diocese; Author of Screwtape Teaches the Faith "In a world that is filled with one fitness craze after another and where the temptation to glorify the body is a constant battle for many, it is necessary to have a perspective that sees through the lens of God's truth. The Ten Commandments of Lifting Weights is an excellent resource that raises the bar and challenges the weightlifter to rise above narcissism and selfishness while training for the honor and glory of God. Jared Zimmerer sets a strong benchmark for all those who appreciate fitness of both the body and the soul." - Doug Barry, Founder/Director RADIX; Seen on EWTN's Life on The Rock "When a 6'5," 265 pound Texan gives you some firm suggestions, it's probably a good idea to follow them. When you find those suggestions are also Commandments from God Himself, then all doubt has been removed, and it's time to get down to business. I thank God that he has provided us with such a great big Texan, in the person of Jared Zimmerer, to remind us of God's will for us regarding our own human bodies. As Christians we know that our bodies are good. God created us as ensouled bodies, as miraculous blends of the material and the spiritual..." - from the foreword, written by Kevin Vost; best-selling author of Tending the Temple, Fit for Eternal Life and Memorize the Faith.

Building on the Ten Commandments that guide our spiritual lives, Henry Brinton and Vikram Khanna have devised Ten Commandments of Faith and Fitness, a scientifically sound resource that teaches how to properly incorporate physical activity into daily life and how to eat better, while building faith in the process.

This book is a guide for someone who is incarcerated or facing imprisonment. It doesnt take a degree in quantum physics to figure out that putting people in prison is big business in America. If every law that was written was always obeyed then apparently someone would be out of a job. Lawyers, judges, probation officers, correctional officers, etcthe list goes on and on. What if you ran the judicial system in America, making billions of dollars? Would you design your system for prisoners to be rehabilitated, or would you set your system up so that those prisoners remained uneducated almost guaranteeing his or her returning for a second or third sentence? Now Im not saying get rid of all prisons and let the criminal element run free. Please dont think that. I have been in prison myself and I know a few people who should never be allowed out of prison. I will also say that I have witnessed a few prisoners educate themselves because failure was not an option for them.

This book outlines what the author believes to be ten important issues or concepts that merit discussion or at least some thought. Some are not new ideas by any stretch of the imagination, but may have been glossed over, over reported or covered and debated so much they may have lost their luster and are worth polishing up for a fresh roll in the brain. The others you will find enlightening if you happen to find yourself in "violation" for lack of a better word. Now with a new official title of "Commandment", perhaps some older but still relevant concepts may be revived and repaired and the new ideas understood and accepted. Let's face it; it's tough to get a new idea across anyone these days! But when it's a commandment... well how can you say no to a commandment? Though obviously not written by god himself, the wish is that after finishing the book you will agree that keeping 11 thru 20 in mind and executing the fundamental spirit of the script would not be a bad thing. Just like the original version! History has shown that nothing is fiercer than an aroused mind moving in the direction of positive change. The Bible is a magnificent book and reveals itself with the wonderful vernacular of the time. Like listening to the inflection and dialect delivered by the actors from a movie shot in the 1930's, turning the pages of the bible is like eaves dropping on another time. But unlike the thirties, these days most men don't call each other "Fella" "Mac" or "Daddy-o" as often as they once did. So to have been dropped words like begat, shalt, and thou. In the interest of smooth reading and less aspirin, Don too shalt... uh... shall leave the tradition speak of the day to the titles of the commandments only, and opt for an easier more casual discussion into their meaning.

In this volume, Patrick D. Miller studies the Ten Commandments as ancient document and as contemporary guide.
