So I love the gym and try to exercise as much as possible. Well since I stopped using I have been going to the gym and I have been wanting to talk to a trainer so I can find a program that will benefit me the most. So Sunday my son (13) says "hey dad lets go to the gym" so we went.
When I walked in there was a table with entry forms to fill out to win something. I wasn't even sure what it was. My son says hey dad fill this out, it's for a personal trainer for a month free. Well I never win anything but I filled it out and dropped it in the box. I remember thinking to myself ok if I win this it will be a sign from the MAN that my life is starting over and he knows my heart and is helping me get started. Actually I was thinking this is a waste of my time.
Yesterday I get a call from the gym and I won the trainer sessions. I couldn't believe it. So they are setting me up with a trainer that specializes in post surgery programs. Mainly for sports injuries. That just blows me away.
The man upstairs is letting me know that if I want him to save me I should try saving myself. I know most of you will read this and think this dude is corny but it really gave me a burst of confidence.
