RIO Fitness Chicago® Exercise & Nutrition Blog

RIO Fitness Chicago® Tip:

Soda, juices, sports drinks are loaded with calories & sugars. Coke has 40g of sugar, OJ 33g, apple juice 39g, Gatorade 34g. All that sugar if not burned immediately is converted into fat. Also, the nutrition facts usually list 8oz of a drink (approx 140cal), NOT the entire 16-32oz bottle (400+cal). Add that to the cal we're eating & we're consuming more cal than we're burning = body fat gain.
