Breaking the Plateau: Strongman Alex Kelley on Faith, Strength, and Complacency

from The Knock Podcast · host The Knock Podcast

What do you do when you hit a wall—not just in the gym, but in your walk with God? In this first-ever virtual episode of The Knock Podcast, Bobby and Gerrad sit down with former CU teammate and strongman Alex Kelley to discuss the discipline required to move from "good" to "great." Alex shares his unique journey growing up as a missionary kid in Spain and San Diego, and how his travels to the jungles of Peru and the schools of Uganda shaped his perspective on gratitude. He opens up about the "athletic mirror"—how God uses his plateaus in strongman training to reveal spiritual complacency—and why he decided to break the mold through the "Bible in a Year" challenge. Whether you feel stuck in a "boring" routine or are striving for excellence in your career and faith, Alex's story is a powerful reminder that God doesn't call us to be mediocre. If this story stirs something in you—pray on it.  If you're searching for more—lean in. Because God is always knocking.  The question is: will you answer?
