No Sugar Challenge

Added sugars (that don’t occur naturally in the foods you are eating) can be detrimental to your health. The No Sugar Challenge is the way to go!

Here are just a few of the MANY reasons to cap the sugar intake in your diet….

  • Sugar promotes INFLAMMATION in the body (Inflammation is the ROOT of ALL disease in our bodies.)
  • Large amounts of added Sugars will SUPPRESS the immune system.  (Imagine how your immune systems suffers if you are eating added and processed sugars at ever meal!)
  • Sugars will suppress the release of HGH (Human Growth Hormone) in the body (and since HGH is imperative in anti-aging in our bodies, we want as much of this as our bodies are able to naturally produce.)
  • Sugars will raise your insulin levels– which over time can lead to a host of diseases.
  • Short term, added sugars will have a HUGE effect on your energy levels throughout the day.

By taking this No Sugar Challenge it means that you commit to having no ADDED sugars in ANYTHING you eat this week! 

Here are the Rules

  1. No Added Sugars of ANY kind: Honey, Molasses, Cane Sugar, Coconut Sugar, Stevia, Agave, Truvia, etc.)
  2. Absolutely nothing in the ingredient label that says HFCS (High-Fructose Corn Syrup).  Stay away from all processed foods in general to make it easier on yourself (though that is another challenge for another week!)
  3. Do NOT eat anything that says Sugar-Free.  This will almost 100% of the time have artificial sweeteners in them.  General Rule of Thumb: If you can’t pronounce the ingredient, you probably shouldn’t be eating it!

Naturally occurring sugars in your food are OK (fruits, veggies, etc.) Try to eat your fruits earlier in the day (not past 3-4pm)

This Week’s Challenge may be a LOT harder than it looks….but you’ll be SHOCKED at how amazing you feel at the end of the week.

You’ll probably also notice you are sleeping better, have more energy and may even lose 2-3 pounds!  🙂

Here are a few tips for a Successful Week

  1. Get RID of ALL Distractions or items that will keep you from your goals. If you have other people in your home living with you, put their sugary foods in a separate cabinet or refrigerator shelf to keep you from temptation. (This step is HUGE!)
  2. Plan Out Your Food for the Week!  Sit down for 15 minutes to plan out what you will be eating for breakfast, lunch, and dinner this week. Taking the time to do this will tremendously increase your chances for success!
  3. Plan Out Your Reward/Consequences.  If you succeed at this challenge, what will be your reward? Please do not make it a Brownie Sundae! Something like a massage, manicure, and other non-food related rewards work best. You don’t want to start conditioning your self with food as prizes. Also, if you do NOT succeed with the challenge, what is your penalty? (Example: Offering to do your Partners chores for a week, 150 Burpees, etc.)

TOM LORIO
"I wanted to learn how to take better care of myself and Ron has helped tremendously. He’s gotten me to the gym 5-6 days a week, taught me how to eat better and also think better about exercise and myself. He’s got a great group of trainees and makes a point of introducing you to them, so the gym begins to feel like a family. Just yesterday, I did the City Challenge obstacle course, something I’d never thought I’d do. Now I’m looking forward to next year and training more intensely with his team."
MELISSA CATE
"When I started working with Ron I was 240 pounds and in a total state of denial about how I got to that weight and how I was going to lose it. I really had no idea what was in store for me. I am not going to lie. It has been a bumpy road, but Ron helped me open my eyes to see I was not loving myself but lying to myself. He helped me regain the self-esteem I had lost over the years and in doing so lose 40 lbs. I am so glad I contacted him and truly consider him family. Thank you Ron for your encouragement and honesty."

"Ron's attention to training is INTENSE. I love the combination of his workouts. There is nothing pretty about it. You will work hard, at your own pace, but he will push you. I have seen results in 4 workouts and CANNOT wait to do more. The costs is simply MORE FOR YOUR MONEY when it comes to semi private training. I highly recommend dumping your gym and joining BE FIT JC @ World Boxing Gym. I have checked out gyms like LA Fitness, Club Metro and Hamilton Health & Fitness - and you get way more for your $."
JOHN W.
"I see other people with trainers who concentrate on bulking with weights without discussing aerobic training or diet. Ron concentrates on stretching and weight training always emphasizing proper technique. He clearly explains why one way of doing an exercise is better than another. The building block approach is effective because you don't get discouraged right away by not being able to perform an exercise. Ron pushes you to a point where you might feel you could go before you would get discouraged."
SUSAN G.
"After three weeks, I was ready to give up. Ron spent the next hour just talking about our lives outside of me gym, how what we were doing in the gym positively affects our lives outside the gym. FOCUS... Facing and conquering the next challenge, and the satisfaction that goes along with moving on to the next level. Over the next year, I trained with Ron twice a week, and found he was able to get me up on a Saturday morning reaching limits I never thought possible and feeling excited."
