Exercise is Boring Show Recap

Exercise may be boring, but this past week was anything but boring for me. I was very busy and tired. I'd probably get busted for making excuses for not posting.

Mixing it up with new exercise options

I've posted in the past on the need to mix up exercise choices to stay motivated. The first part of the show has the teams trying new exercise. Dolvett's team heads off for Zumba. Buddy is surprisingly good for a goofy, white guy.



Bob takes his team mountain biking, and we're treated to a beautiful panorama of southern California at the top.

Challenges 

We get two interesting, engaging challenges this week. A truck loading challenge for food donation to the winning player's town + one lb advantage at weigh. Mark wins the loading challenge. The challenge twist was that every player's town will receive some food. We get to see everyone working together in harmony at the end to finish the challenge.

The second challenge was shopping and cooking challenge. After timed grocery store shopping, players prepare a meal for surprise judges from season 12 BL.

Surprise season 12 judges Vinny, Antone, and Becky

"Wrassler Kim" gets a surprise win in the competition. Chris is called out by Antone for her poor showing.

Elimination 

Megan and Mark fall below the yellow line, and Megan is sent home.

"Skinny Vinny" in the News

Vinny Hickerson gains new fame after Biggest Loser

Vinny came close but didn't win a prize on the Biggest Loser. However, the fame and recognition he achieved from the show's appearance has given him a new label as a handsome guy. 


Vinny was one of the most likeable, if not the most likeable, on BL Season 12. The publicity he got from appearing on the show will undoubtedly help him with a career in music.




Ultimately, the health and new life that he gained from the show is a greatest "prize" that he won. I wish him the best and hope he gains and progresses with more success in his life.
