The Soul Gym
Every other peak performance podcast gives you the tools and leaves out the power source. We don't.
The Soul Gym equips Christian athletes in college and pro sports with the mindset science, physical performance strategies, and unshakeable identity in Jesus Christ to become complete — lacking nothing — on the field, in ministry, and in life.
We build the foundation on Jesus first. Then we stack the strategies of mind and body on top. That's not a religious show. That's a complete show.
Hosted by Lance Thonvold — Seattle Mariners MLB draft pick, D1 athlete at the University of Minnesota, Teammate of the Year, and a speaker who has stood in locker rooms across the SEC, Big 12, and Big 10 — and Steve Watson, former NFL player with the Washington Redskins and Baltimore Ravens, team chaplain for ASU Football, mentor to athletes at every level, and founder of BE BOLD.
Two guys who've lived it. One show that doesn't leave anything out.
Train everything. Lack nothing.

In this powerful episode of Planted Not Buried, we dive into the extraordinary story of Jorge—a former standout athlete whose life took a dramatic turn after being burned from head to toe in a life-altering incident. What could have been the end of his story became the beginning of a divine encounter that changed everything.
Jorge shares how God met him in the midst of his pain, igniting a faith so deep that it propelled him into a life of purpose, evangelism, and ministry. Now a pastor in Las Vegas and a leader in Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Jorge uses his testimony to inspire others to trust God through their own trials.
Join us as we explore themes of faith, perseverance, surrender, and God’s ability to turn even the darkest moments into a beacon of hope. If you’ve ever questioned your purpose or wondered how God can use your struggles for good, this episode is for you.
Get ready to be inspired, encouraged, and reminded that you are planted, not buried.
