Be Challenged Be Changed

Are you ready to take your Fitness to the next level? Tired of the same old routine? Not getting the results your looking for? We all train with different goals but we all have one thing in common, we are looking for CHANGE! Are you looking to get faster, stronger, more flexible, increased endurance or weight loss well it is all CHANGE!

Now its time to step out of your comfort zone and start creating CHANGE with improvements to your strength, endurance and flexibility.

Personal Training and/or Outdoor classes are the answers your looking for. The workouts are always changing. Some times we use Body Weight exercises, other times using Kettle Bells, Battle Ropes, Steel Mace, Medicine Balls, Bands, Suspension Training and many other variables.

Whether your training for a particular sport or weight loss or that upcoming 5K or maybe an Obstacle Course Race. I will help you be at your very best!

Personal Training can be one on one or team up with a friend for added accountability. Get a group of your friends together and train for that special upcoming event!

7 Diet-Food Rip-Offs


7. Worst Hot Cereal: Quaker Instant Raisin & Spice (1 packet)
150 calories, 2 g fat (0 g unsaturated), 14 g sugars

     Somebody must have been sleeping at the FDA the day Quaker was approved to carry this oversized heart-health logo on its box. Sure, it's low in saturated fat and cholesterol, but it's absolutely teeming with sugar. One bowl has more sugar than a scoop of Edy's Slow Churned Rocky Road Ice
Cream. Your best bet is to stick with Quaker's old-fashioned oats and sweeten it yourself with fruit, but if you're set on the single-serving packets, go with the Lower Sugar variety. It provides
just as much fiber with a mere fraction of the sugar.

EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Quaker Lower Sugar Apples & Cinnamon (1 packet)
110 calories, 1.5 g fat (0.5 g saturated), 6 g sugar

6. Worst Yogurt: Yoplait 99% Fat Free Strawberry (1 container, 170g) 170 calories, 1.5 g fat (1 g saturated), 26 g sugars
 
    Just look at the ingredient list to see the true picture. After milk, sugar is the next ingredient. Scroll down the list a little and you'll find high-fructose corn syrup, too. So sure it's "99% fat free," but it also has more sugar than an entire Hershey's Milk Chocolate bar. Fage's is plenty sweet, but more of its sugar comes from real fruit. Plus it justifies the sugar with 17 grams of protein—more than 3 times as much as you'll find in Yoplait's yogurt.

EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Fage 2% Strawberry
140 calories, 2.5 g fat (1.5 g saturated), 16 g sugars

5. Worst Reduced-Calorie Ice Cream Novelty: Breyers Carb Smart Almond Bar (1 bar)
180 calories, 15 g fat (10 g saturated), 5 g sugars

  The fact that this bar has only 5 grams of sugar is commendable, but the fact that it contains half your day's saturated-fat limit is not. Instead, look for a treat like Slim a Bear that puts a cap on both sugar and fat. Not only does that protect your heart, but it also diminishes your calorie impact.

EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Klondike Slim a Bear No Sugar Added
Kashi GoLean Crunchy! Chocolate Caramel (1 bar)
150 calories, 3 g fat (2 g saturated), 14 g sugar
3. Worst Wheat Bread: Arnold Whole Grains Health Nut (2 slices)ce Cream Sandwiches (1 sandwich)
100 calories, 2 g fat (1 g saturated), 3 g sugars

4. Worst Nutrition Bar: PowerBar Fruit Smoothie Energy, Berry Blast (1 bar)
220 calories, 3.5 g fat (0.5 g saturated), 27 g sugars
   
   Not only does it contain virtually zero fiber, but the first ingredient is evaporated cane juice, otherwise known as sugar. Switch to Kashi's GoLean Crunchy! and you'll earn a touch more protein and a ton more fiber. Plus, you'll drop your sugar load by almost half.


3. Worst Wheat Bread: Arnold Whole Grains Health Nut (2 slices) 240 calories, 4 g fat (0 g saturated), 4 g fiber
 
     Don't blow your calories on the bread; save them for the nutrient-dense stuff you're going to stuff inside. Arnold's Whole Grains Health Nut earns the Worst Bread distinction by being high in calories and carrying a load of refined flour. Make your sandwiches on Nature's Own Double Fiber Wheat instead and you'll eliminate 140 calories and double your fiber intake.

EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Nature’s Own Double Fiber Wheat (2 slices)
100 calories, 1 g fat (0 g saturated), 10 g fiber


2. Worst Smoothie: Smoothie King Banana Boat (40 oz) 1,048 calories, 24 g fat (12 g saturated), 154 g sugars



    There's a health halo hanging over everything smoothie-related, which makes it seem as though you can do no damage in the smoothie shop. Truth is, you can. Case in point: Smoothie King's Banana Boat. It sounds healthy enough, but it's made with ice cream and served from a mammothsize cup. It also packs in more sugar than 8 Twinkies. Make it a rule to never drink out of anything bigger than Smoothie King's 20-ounce cup,and then do yourself a favor by ordering the Youth Fountain.

EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Smoothie King Youth Fountain (20 oz)
253 calories, 0 g fat, 54 g sugars

1. Worst Salad: Applebee's Santa Fe Chicken Salad (Full) 1,290 calories, 92 g fat (24 g saturated), 3,500 mg sodium, its good for you, but not when they're encumbered by fried tortilla strips and a reckless deluge of ranch dressing. In the 15 minutes it takes you to eat this salad, you'll take in more than a day's worth of sodium and saturated fat along with two-thirds of your day's worth of calories.



EAT THIS INSTEAD!
Grilled Steak Caesar Salad (Half)
460 calories, 34 g fat (8 g saturated), 920 mg sodium
