Steve Bethea
I have dedicated over 20 years to becoming a better athlete while obtaining a degree in engineering and working a full-time job. I’ve varied my training from martial arts (Karate and Judo) to sports (like football, track, and basketball). Also, reading and learning about the human body and making sure to educate myself about nutrition so I can fuel my body properly.
I am a Certified Personal Trainer specializing in getting fast results for my clients through intense training and focus on lifelong behavior changes. On top of that, I have developed programs to get people in the best shape of their life.
I am absolutely convinced that with God 1st, hard work, and focus – anything is possible.
I started R.E.A.L. fitness because I wanted to communicate my God-given revelations about health & wellness to believers everywhere so they can live in the fullness of the blessings of our Physical, Mental, Emotional, and Spiritual health.
how real fitness works
Real Fitness is a hub of information about health and wellness for anyone, especially believers that want to focus on health and wellness from a Kingdom perspective.
There are four cornerstones:
Relationship = Foundational Relationship With God
Education = Fitness and Nutrition Information
Action = Training Exercises and Tips
Lifestyle = Balance and Life Integration
RELATIONSHIP
Before really committing to being more healthy and doing the things necessary to be completely successful in this, having a stable relationship with the Lord is paramount; you have to trust God and His Word. Understanding and believing that a healthy lifestyle is the Christian lifestyle is key.

ACTION
Our bodies are designed to move, and depending on the lifestyle and health goals, daily activity will look different for everyone. But as Christians we should strive to be generally fit. Find a physical activity you enjoy and do it often; exercise is a celebration of the gift of our bodies. Engaging in regular strength training will help to make you strong and prevent injury as you age.
LIFESTYLE
To make all of this work, you have to commit to a lifestyle change and make wellness a priority. We all have time to do what is required to be well, we just don’t make the time. Make it a priority by resolving in your mind that your fitness isn`t just for you. You’re being obedient to the Lord and His will for your life, and when you practice complete wellness it will give you a lane to lead more people to Jesus. There isn’t much more important than that.
