”You can find the time, but it is going to take some effort and some intentional planning.”

On the very first episode of Delay the Decay with Dan Harty, we sit down with Jobe Lewis from The 40 Day Fight. We talk about Jobe’s background, highlighting his journey as a former Division 1 football player, and how he faced the challenge of balancing faith, fitness, family and personal goals. He shares a little about his experience working with youth pastors and about The 40 Day Fight initiative, designed to help people integrate spiritual, nutritional, physical and mental health for sustained growth and well-being.

Jobe and Dan reflect on the significance of finding balance and success in one’s journey, moving beyond temporary fixes like diets or exercise fads, to embrace a holistic approach that fosters resilience and purpose. Tune in for valuable insights into how faith and fitness can work hand in hand to build strength and endurance, ultimately leading to a more fulfilling and balanced life.
