Hello, my name is Aketa Thomas, and I am the owner of His Temple Fitness. This is a Christian exercise website. It is dedicated to the glory of Jesus Christ and for the edification of His body, the Church. I provide an array of health and fitness services including personal training, nutritional counseling, and figure contest preparation. Have a look around and feel free to contact me for any assistance. God's Blessings Our bodies are the temple for the Holy Spirit!
I thank God for the opportunity to be able to be used to help His people on a daily basis to live a better life. I've always been an active person, but seeing others fulfill major life goals goes way beyond my personal interests. I believe that God puts you in unique circumstances in life, and it is up to you to fulfill the call.
After highschool, I was soon married and in the Air Force. My career in the military was diet therapy. While there, I learned about food being used as therapy for ill patients. Later I realized God was equipping me to be a good service to people who need to know about what God's true purpose of food; it was to be a healing agent! I realized that God never intended for us to polllute our bodies with such toxins. His will is for us to be prosperous and to be in good health! From then I decided to become more knowledgable in the area of health, nutrition, and fitness.
I received my certification as a personal trainer in 2002 and have been going full steam ahead ever since. I completed my undergrad degree in exercise science in 2007. I now work at the hospital in the weight management department as their exercise physiologist. I absolutely love it! There is such a need to help people become healthy in this day and age. I pray God uses me for His glory each day to help His people regain their lives back.
I started competing in 2002 and got the bug for competitive figure. I have been pleased with how my career and competitive goals are going. It seems like I get a little better everyday. I once heard someone say that taking shortcuts do not lead to any place worth going. I believe that is true, and that is why I am a drug-free competitor and will always be.
Our bodies are a temple for God, hence the name His Temple Fitness! I believe we should be good stewards of the body He has given us. We only get one, and we only get one life to live. Why not live it in freedom and in truth? Why not begin everyday feeling good and having energy? Why be dependent on toxic foods and sedentary lifestyles that are harmful to that temple?
I feel it is my destiny to spread the news about how great it is to be active and healthy, as much as possible. I think He would want His people to know that terrible eating habits and a sedentary lifestyle will rob them of their full potential.
Be wise about what you are putting into your body, and make it your business to get educated on how to take care of yourself. Do not be deceived my friends. Remember, that God loves you more than anything, and He wants what is best for you and the Kingdom. Be blessed!
