SMALL THINGS – BIG DIFFERENCE What is discipline? Discipline is simply choosing between what we want now and what we want most. 15 I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16 And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17 As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18 For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. [c] For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19 For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20 Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. Romans 7c

SMALL THINGS – BIG DIFFERENCE 24 Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but only one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may win. 25 Everyone who competes in the games exercises self-control in all things. They then do it to receive a perishable wreath, but we an imperishable. 26 Therefore I run in such a way, as not without aim; I box in such a way, as not beating the air; 27 but I [l] discipline my body and make it my slave, so that, after I have preached to others, I myself will not be disqualified.l

SMALL THINGS – BIG DIFFERENCE Day One - the day of preparations. It consisted of toning and short, high-intensity workouts. Day Two - the day of intensity. It involved the athlete going through long, strenuous exercises. Day Three - the day of resting. On this day athletes would do short mild workouts and primarily rest. Day Four - the day of medium intensity. Athletes mainly practiced wrestling on this day, focusing more on tactics than strength.
