In this powerful conversation, Coach George and Coach Justin dive deep into a topic that stirs tension in the fitness world: faith and strength — and why Christianity gets labeled as weak. When a few of George’s posts in a fitness group sparked controversy, it wasn’t just about workouts or programming — it was about identity, confidence, and what it truly means to be strong.Christianity can look passive or soft to those who haven’t lived it — but staying bold, confident, and anchored in faith requires resilience most don’t see. George explains how he stays true to his beliefs in a culture that often equates strength with arrogance and ego. Justin brings honest pushback around pride, bravado, and how Christians are perceived — especially in spaces where confidence can be confused with arrogance.WARNING: This is not MEDICAL ADVICE! 600 Pounds Down is not liable for any implemented strategy that is recommended or suggested.

In this episode of 600 Pounds Down, Justin and George dive into how physical discipline doesn’t just transform your body — it reshapes your entire life. When you build consistency in one area, that same discipline begins to filter into your mindset, relationships, and daily decisions. Justin and George share how training the body to function optimally creates resilience that reaches far beyond the gym. And when you learn to push yourself to the limit — to embrace pressure and push through pain — your mind and body begin to work together under stress instead of breaking down from it. This isn’t just about fitness; it’s about building the kind of strength that prepares you for anything life throws your way.Rate us a 5 on Apple/Spotify!Subscribe to us on YOUTUBE/APPLE/SPOTIFY!Share this episode with your friends!
