00:04 simple workouts that you can use to improve 00:06 your health. Be sure to consult your physician 00:10 before beginning any exercise program. 00:15 We all need hope in our life and exercise can help 00:18 give us that hope. Stay tune to find more 00:20 about it next on Body and Spirit. 00:51 Hello, I am Dick Nunez, Exercise Physiologist and 00:54 Principal of Miracle Meadows and The Mountain 00:55 State Leadership Academy in West Virginia. 00:57 Welcome to Body and Spirit. 01:00 I remember a story of a man who was so depressed, 01:03 his job was going horrible, his family life was bad 01:06 and then he found out the worst news of all. 01:09 He was dying of cardiovascular disease. 01:11 His arteries are blocked, plugged up, 01:13 they weren't sure that there was lot they could 01:14 do for him. He was so depressed, he had 01:17 no hope left. He decided he was gonna 01:19 kill himself. He didn't wanna shoot 01:21 himself or do it in a dishonorable way that 01:23 would hurt his family. He thought what he would 01:25 do is by an exercise outfit, some running shoes 01:28 and go out to the park after work and honorably 01:32 kill himself by exercising to death. 01:35 When he got to the park, he picked out a oak big, 01:37 put on his shoes and ran as hard as he could. 01:41 And he got to the oak tree he collapsed in a heap, 01:44 his chest was heaving, breathing profusely and 01:47 he felt like he wanted to die. But, he didn't. 01:51 The while later he started to feel better. 01:54 He slowly walk back to his car next day 01:57 he tried it again and again and again. 02:02 By end of the week, he went out there again climbed 02:06 out of his car and took his mad dash for the oak tree. 02:10 And this time when he collapsed in a heap 02:12 and got up, he looked around. 02:15 And he saw the oak tree was way behind him. 02:18 He was running well pass the oak tree now and 02:21 as he started slowly walking back to his car 02:23 he started to realize a few things. 02:26 Since he started this crazy tirade to kill 02:29 himself, things were going better at work, 02:32 his family life seem to be improving and 02:34 he actually felt like he was getting more fit. 02:36 So, instead of killing himself, he decided 02:39 he would start a regular exercise program 02:41 and by doing so he started to have hope again. 02:45 And he has had a joyful life, has been 02:48 going around sharing his testimony with many people 02:51 about how God rescued him from the grips of, 02:54 with an exercise program I would not recommend 02:57 it to anybody, but for him it worked. 03:00 We're gonna talk about hope today while we do our 03:02 exercise program.

Remember tests they 03:49 set up, where rats getting zapped by electricity 03:52 and the ones who can take their wheel there was 03:55 two different cages and turn the electricity off. 03:58 Even though they got zapped as well they didn't 04:01 get sick near as much as those who could not 04:04 turn off the electricity.

Thanks a lot. 26:34 Hope is something we all to be striving for and if we 26:37 have faith in God, we'll have that hope. 26:39 I've seen so many people take their situation, 26:42 regardless of where they are at whether they are in lot of 26:45 pain, arthritis or they got heart disease. 26:47 I remember a man who had 99 percent blockage going 26:50 to his brain was considered inoperable and within 26:53 just 40 days, the last week he was at our Wellness 26:56 Program in the Black Hills, while I was a 26:58 Wellness Director there. He walked an incredible 27:01 46 miles, it is just fantastic to see how God 27:04 can heal people. Before, he came out he 27:06 really had, didn't have much hope that he was 27:08 gonna have a normal healthy life, but now 27:10 this man still walks 4-5 miles every single 27:13 morning and that was several years ago now. 27:15 So we can have hope, we can to see disease were 27:18 worse often times in people are overweight 27:20 and they feel like there is nothing else they can do. 27:22 Getting in a good regular exercise program 27:24 will give them that hope or if they see their blood 27:27 profile, listening their cholesterol and 27:30 triglycerides are way out of side by getting in a 27:32 good program of proper life style, good nutrition 27:35 and getting in a good exercise program. 27:38 Let's see those changed drastically as well. 27:40 Basically, what I've seen happened is people who are 27:43 pessimistic become optimistic because they 27:45 get into a regular exercise routine. 27:47 But, remember do it for the right reasons. 27:50 Philippians 4:13 says I can do all things to 27:53 Christ who strengthens me. God bless you, 27:55 we'll see you next time. |
