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.

It's All Spiritual

Most athletes are losing battles they don't even know they're in — because they're fighting the wrong fight. The real war isn't physical. It's not mental. It's spiritual. And if you don't see it that way, you're never getting to the root.
In this episode, Lance and Steve crack open the question every competitor needs to sit with: Do you actually see yourself as a spiritual being — or just a body with a soul tucked somewhere in the back? Because the answer changes everything.
We're talking about soul scars — the wounds you didn't even know happened, quietly bleeding into your identity, your relationships, your performance. The blood in the water. The open wounds that create a false version of you and block you from where God is trying to take you.
And then there's the harder question: Where are you keeping the door shut on Jesus? What areas of your life are you holding back — and why?
This episode gives you the lens, the formula, and the fight plan to stop surviving spiritually and start training it like everything else.
Train everything. Lack nothing. It starts here.
