About this app

Ron Gaston, a born again Christian, is the founder and owner of The Temple Total Fitness in Michigan City, Indiana. As a young man with great potential, Ron fell into life’s traps. However, he has been redeemed and is moving full force to encourage and inspire local youth to become the leaders they were created to be.

Ron is a dedicated Christian who believes that our bodies are a true gift from God, and that it is our duty to take special care of them. He is a Performance Enhancement Specialist and Weight Management Consultant, and utilizes a holistic approach that encompasses the body, spirit and soul. This holistic approach makes this training regimen not just another program, but a game-changing, life-altering transformation.

One goal that Ron is very passionate and enthusiastic about is to help young people re-cast their vision of becoming successful. He recently started a young men’s mentoring project, “Interception,” geared towards guiding youth from ages 8 to 19. Ron uses Fitness and Nutrition protocols as teaching anchors to enable these young men to establish true identity and self-worth. Ron also has a program, appropriately named, “Working out with the Rev.”, which has gained local- as well as state-wide recognition. He has received grants from Peyton Manning – Peyback Foundation; Indiana Youth Institute-Youth Investment Grant; Blue Chip Casino – Enrichment Grant. His work in the community has been lauded by several public officials, including Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels; United States Senator Richard Lugar; and Michigan City Mayor Chuck Oberlie, for the extraordinary work in his fight against childhood obesity.
