Every Road Leads Back to God

from The Journey · host Ricardo Vargas

Ricardo was 130 pounds, running marathons, and feeling like a rag doll. Andrew was spamming 100 push-ups a day during quarantine, trying to build something out of nothing. This week on The Journey Podcast, Ricardo and Andrew from GRND CO break down the physical side of transformation — not the highlight reel, but the real grind behind building a body that can carry the weight of your purpose. They get into what it actually takes to go from skinny or stuck to strong and disciplined. Andrew talks about how soccer and muscle couldn't coexist until he learned balance. Ricardo opens up about body dysmorphia, binge eating to fill a void, and the marathon mile where he begged God not to let him stop. They cover the mental traps that keep you stuck, why all roads lead back to God, and how your physical discipline is a direct reflection of how much you respect yourself, your future, and your Creator. This isn't about six-packs or biceps. It's about the deeper truth: your body is not your own. God gave it to you. What you do with it matters. If you're building something, this episode will remind you why the physical pillar is non-negotiable. ───────────────────────────── https://freshsupps.com Code:RICO GRND Tracker App: https://grnd.ricoxjourney.com/login FIND ME EVERYWHERE 📺 YouTube → youtube.com/@thericardovargas 📸 Instagram → instagram.com/ricardovargas174 📸 Instagram → instagram.com/andre3w_i16 🎵 TikTok → tiktok.com/@r.vargas174 🐦 Twitter/X → twitter.com/ricardov174 🧵 Threads → threads.net/@ricardovargas174 🎙️ Podcast → The Journey on Apple Podcasts ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
