Biggest Loser

I don't watch a lot of television. I like it just as much as the next person but feel that it is a big time waster. That being said, let me tell you how I got sucked in to watching over an hour of the "Biggest Loser." Rachael and I were hanging out after eating dinner and we flipped on the tv. They show a clip of Bob from the "Biggest Loser" just going off on a participant of the show. They kept building it up until finally they showed the clip an hour later. I have to admit: It was totally worth the wait. Here's why: This woman Joelle and her 5 or so teammates were doing interval sprints on the treadmill. They had to sprint for 30 seconds. Every time they did a sprint she would stop at 20 seconds because she said she was tired. Bob had enough of it and just went off on her. I mean dropping "f" bombs left and right. To some this may have seemed a bit harsh. I thought he was dead on accurate. There are probably over 100,000 people that would trade spots with her in a second. She was taking it for granted and not working as hard as she could. Very disappointing from a trainer's perspective.

Okay, enough about the "Biggest Loser." My point is that if you are going to do something, and you are paying money for it, why not give it everything you've got? Nothing makes me happier than to see an individual push themselves and succeed. The formula is quite simple. You eat right, train hard, take the right supplements and succeed. That's it. Don't overcomplicate things.

And trust me: I know who pushes themselves and who does not.

Have a great weekend!
