The most incredible part in her story is her training once she left the ranch.

How did Helen do it?  By training like you should be training.  By training like an athlete.  She would meet the football coach at Mott High School at 4am every morning and run stadium stairs and flip tires and run sprints until she couldn’t walk any more. Then should would get up and do it again the next day.

Usually contestants leave the ranch and find trainers who do not understand the volume of training that we contestants endured while on the Biggest Loser ranch.  The trainer looks at our age and weight and may even mentally belittle the Biggest Loser in their mind. Then they start a half baked fitness assessment period and the client learning curb has to start up and valuable training time is lost.  But Helen found someone who ‘got it’ almost immediately.

That’s what it takes to Lose It Fast.

And then I come across this article where ‘experts’ say that what we contestants go through is ‘not healthy‘. These same experts are invested in keeping you fat and miserable for the rest of your life while they collect degrees and salaries and forever fail to solve America’s obesity problem.  I guess that is the ‘healthy’ way.

So if you want to stay fat and unhealthy or just unhappy then simply keep doing what you have been doing.

For the students in my Lose It Fast Lose It Forever Class I expect no excuses from you. Complete all of your home work from Chapter 7 (Page 79) while I am out of town.  Do your long runs and your intervals before Monday’s class.  If you have already done them them do it again. I expect everyone to be in the running for this weeks Homework Challenge prize.
