GOSPOD.....You're welcome

I've been enjoying Holy Name during my lifts.

So, I am a musician. I played heavy metal music, and have listen to it for decades now. I also have been a bodybuilder for about six or seven years now (not professional, just dedicatedly training; went from 166lb to 234lb). As a musician, experienced gym trainee, and follower of our Lord, I have a very studied and thoroughly thought through take on this. Would you like to speak more about it?

I think what’s important is what the music is conveying. I love listening to bands like HolyName because their intention is clear. Some of my favorite albums before I found faith don’t get touched anymore because of the disrespect they have towards our God. Some of the most faithful music I’ve heard is in the metal genre, and some of the most deceptively Satanic music can come from upbeat techno and pop. Test the spirits.

Christian metal is a thing. Gospod, Reverorum Ib Malacht, and Opprobrium. Judas Priest most recent album has some Christian lyrics & Jesse David Leach of Killswitch Engage is a Christian.

What's this weird obsession with working out? You shouldn't listen to music that has overtly sinful lyrics or a lot of cursing either obviously.

Check our Holy Name my brothers

That atheist laughed at him glorifying the lord Jesus christ!! And got hammered!

"Playing with fire" by behold the beloved and "Alive" by P.O.D on repeat

I love listening to christian rap when I lift.

Ridiculous, and the vanity of lifting. Priest or not.

Great perspective! I really appreciate this video. I've been a big heavy music nerd for the last 19 years of my life. I'd prefer to listen to Christian metal and hardcore when I can, but sonically, i love genres like Slam. I dont listen to heavy music for a message or lyrical content (i dont think most Slam bands even have lyrics 🤣 just gutturals). I've never felt like this music was a stumbling block for me or led me to sin. A lot of these bands are cringe and have extremely distasteful aestheics, so i curate accoridngly. An example would be Esophagus, their entire theme is based off of fhe movie Predator which is a lot cooler to me than some unnecessary, edgelord gore. Hardcore actually has a lot of positive messages, and, even though not always explicit, a lot of Christian lyrical themes. 💯☦️

Eastern European, raised Orthodox, atheist for the last 20 years. I just have to say I find the existence of this channel very strange and interesting. Good message though. Lift heavy, be good.

The only metal bands I ever listen to nowadays are pantera, metallica and megadeth. Since these bands aren't extremely anti religious, they don't have satanic imagery and don't glorify sin like many other bands do. Metallica and megadeth have songs about war, nuclear destruction, religious stories, the corruption of government and more which are all cool topics to me.

Where's the playlist?

I showed this to my priest and he laughed. "Why aren't these people working in the field if they really need physical entertainment, at least something will grow to feed the poor.." .

It all depends on the band

Stop misleading people. Steer clear of this guy…

Was super involved with heavy music for 10 years, played in a metal band as well. You have a lot of good Christian metal bands out there, but by and large a lot of Metal bands just flat out don't like, or even hate Christians on a very deeply rooted level. Even if the music isn't inherently evil lyrically, why would you want to support musicians that have a deep disdain for your Faith? Not all, obviously, and everyone is capable of change (Dave Mustaine comes to mind), but giving them your money or your time would seem ill advised.

I'm a big Theocracy fan, very well done music.

10:15 Luckily i was born ugly with horrible bodybuilding genetics so this is never an issue for me. No matter how hard i train or attempt to improve how i look, i will never look attractive or desirable. It used to bother me alot, but now I really don't care. As long as im training and pushing hard, seeing strength improvements and physical changes im happy

the Doom 2016 OST is peak lifting music.

Most gyms play wordless Techno music to create that upbeat atmosphere needed for workouts. The concept of 'clean metal' is debatable because the genre itself is born out of rebellion and borderline demonism as most musicians confess and so carry that dark spiritual energy - not the kind of music to be mindlessly working out to. Everything is subjective to the degree of holiness one seeks. Here is some Orthodox teaching about such music ruclips.net/video/IcZxWDjLcGA/видео.htmlsi=pYgH11QISAiXCZvO

At the gym I listen to Christian metal. Bands like war of ages, for today, demon hunter, and holy name.

Pastor Michael Foster called fitness an affirmative practice of the 6th (Us Catholics and Orthodox it’s the 5th) commandment. Fitness really is a life promoting practice, and even if men do manual labor and women do tons of housework; you need to keep the engine primed with exercise to carry out your work. The old school men were physical by nature, good gym class, military service by default and manual labor jobs.

When i was 15 i was obese thanks to poor eating habits passed down from my parents. Lost 30kg and oddly enough fitness led me down a path to become a Christian. When previously I was some nihlistic obese athiest. Been training for three years, and i have pectus excavatum which makes it even harder for me to do this. There is no excuse not to exercise HARD, no matter your genes, age, upbringing or beliefs. Weightlifting will change your life. Also, the gym is not a vanity exercise. Beauty is not something to be seen as evil, and wanting to be beautiful is not vain. It's only vain when you feel superior due to your looks, whether your attractiveness is down to genetic gifts, through exercise or a mix of both. Inspire others through your journey, and help those struggling with fitness also.

No headphones is nerfing me.

Boh je veľký ☦️

This argument don't really make sense to me and never really did. For instance, if you watch pron and aren't obsessed with it, maybe watching a couple times per week and "doing the deed", is that permissable? I would think not. So please explain to me the depths of Pauls statement.

Good message, very edifying.

“Stay Here” from Swans gets me so amped at the gym, no better song than that for locking in

Not orthodox, but there's a lot of amazing heavy christian music that slaps really hard. Especially hip hop and metal.

If you enjoy listening to aggressive music while lifting then you are lifting with aggression, I would avoid lifting with emotion to avoid injury, also if you need aggression to lift weights optimally then that is a problem in itself.

I lifted weights in my early 20’s mostly for vanity. Stopped lifting once I got so busy with work and mostly sedentary jobs. Got way out of shape. In my mid 40’s, I saw a Facebook post of a Christian man who showed before and after pics of how he got into shape through weight lifting. And that sparked something in me to get lifting again. At age 47, I’ve been lifting for 1 1/2 years. Loving it. I look better, but that’s a side benefit. I can not only help people move heavy things but I can also live longer (Lord willing) and be around longer to serve the Lord. That being said, I have to fight the temptation to make it about looks and vanity. Great topic for a video!

If any of you are looking for christian metal Broken Flesh is top tier.

AND!! Cause stonecold said so!!!

The asian man does not even shake the Orthodox Christians hand when he loses poor sportsmanship by him

Chant name?

The Doom OST is probably the most Christian metal out there. I mean it's a guy obsessively slaying the demons of hell. So it fits working out perfectly, as you slay your inner demons by exercising 🤷‍♂

This made me cry! ❤I love him! He makes me want to be a better Christian.i fall short all the time. I thank the Lord for his Mercy on a sinner like me.

I think there's something important and I think the crucial detail: We're listening to metal out of weakness not out of strength, in heaven there will be no meat eating, we eat because we are weak, so is the case with music. I found out music has a great influence on everything including mood, all I want to influence me is our triune God

Adamlar bizde kaldırdı sultanlığı krallığı kötü diye kendileri devam ettiriyor ve halen dunyanın süper güçleri

What a poor example we set if we retire in our 60's and live a sedentary life until we die! Its like we are saying, "Well, God, i am kind of tired serving you so i hope it is all right if i just lay back now until i die. With a small amount of exercise we can prolong our lives, be of more service to His Kingdom, and be much less of a burden to loved ones in our declining years.

I am 76 and work 27 hrs per week so i can send $ support to Johnny Robertson of "What Does the Bible Say?" live q & a tv show ( archived on RUclips). I work out mainly with resistance bands so i can continue my support until the day i die.

See that other guy, real bad sportsmanship

Om is pretty good "orthodox" metal band.

Amen! Stay hard brothers ✝️

Stay hard brothers.

Fittness is a key part of masculinity and modernity has robbed many of us of it so you have to make it up in the gym.

Recently I've been listening to classical trap music. No lyrics awesome beats.
