Did you know that when you run on a treadmill you do not use all your leg muscles? It is a good anaerobic workout. Plenty of calories are used up. You are doing physical exercise. BUT if the ground is moving for you, then the leg muscles that you use when running on the road to propel yourself forward, are laying dormant. It is not a full running workout.
A treadmill life is where you develop one part of yourself but leave another part undeveloped. For a while you might feel good, but eventually you will see the imbalance. Some people spend a lot of time on physical exercise and zero time on developing their inner life. They may think they have no inner life, but it is there. We are body, mind and spirit you might say. I know people who read or pray a lot, who are physically a mess. They ignore their bodies. So what is ignored in your life today?
