I love tennis! I play at least twice a week and I am in two competitive leagues. Being prone to cramping I have learned the importance of hydration, monitoring what I eat, and drinking a protein shake with added amino acids before and after playing.

Rather than buying Muscle Milk I should be consuming God’s word and building spiritual muscle. I should be exercising my faith more than my legs. Rather than being concerned about cramping up on the court I should be preparing so I don’t freeze up when Satan confronts me.
