Put God First

Getting Real with Real — Episode 4: "Put God First" (ft. Carl Spellman) What does discipline actually cost you — and what does it cost you not to have it? In this episode of Getting Real with Real, Coach Real sits down with Shredfast coach and former professional footballer Carl Spellman for a raw conversation about faith, identity, and the discipline it takes to put God first — on the mat and off it. Carl opens up about walking away from professional soccer, finding purpose (and God) through Shredfast, and what three days off training taught him about where his real identity is built. Real shares one of the most powerful stories from his own life — how his father, deep into a battle with Parkinson's, could still sit down and play piano or finish a set at the gym on muscle memory alone, long after the disease had taken almost everything else. Together they get into the difference between believers and followers, why suffering has a purpose, and why the only question that really matters is: can you do it when no one's watching?

Getting Real with Real — Episode 4: "Put God First" (ft. Carl Spellman)

What does discipline actually cost you — and what does it cost you not to have it?

In this episode of Getting Real with Real, Coach Real sits down with Shredfast coach and former professional footballer Carl Spellman for a raw conversation about faith, identity, and the discipline it takes to put God first — on the mat and off it.

Carl opens up about walking away from professional soccer, finding purpose (and God) through Shredfast, and what three days off training taught him about where his real identity is built. Real shares one of the most powerful stories from his own life — how his father, deep into a battle with Parkinson's, could still sit down and play piano or finish a set at the gym on muscle memory alone, long after the disease had taken almost everything else.

Together they get into the difference between believers and followers, why suffering has a purpose, and why the only question that really matters is: can you do it when no one's watching?
