Ben is the Co-Founder of the Northern California Classic, owner of Iron Mile Fitness, Husband, Father, and now Pastor. He's been doing functional fitness since 2008 when he chose it to be his primary fitness program to support his MMA career. In 2012, he created the well-known grueling workout, The Iron Mile- a one mile Yoke Carry at 275lbs. Ben also channeled all this fitness into seven appearances at CrossFit Regionals and one at the CrossFit Games.
As much as Ben knows about fitness and strength, he matches it in his knowledge of the Bible. In our conversation, we explore how he came to know the Bible so well despite not attending a seminary or Bible school. He has a unique perspective on balance on what that looks like in our lives as we do the things God's placed before us. Enjoy the episode.
