Micah McCain was one of the “Sky Labbers” on the recently wrapped third season of Bravo’s Work Out, a reality show that follows the life and times of the posh Beverly Hills Sky Sport Spa owner, Jackie Warner. What’s a Sky Labber? Part of the Work Out series is following a group of individuals who’ve signed up for Jackie’s hardcore weight loss bootcamp, Sky Lab. Micah was one of the lucky few to participate, and he lost 23 pounds during the filming of the show.
“I started working out 3 months before, worked out on the show 5 months, and it’s been 2 months since,” explains Micah. “Total loss of 71 pounds! I’m tired and I’m slightly hungry!”
Micah works in Hollywood doing a little bit of everything from “entertaining on stage, on camera and on the street,” he says. He has a new cabaret show that’s opening next weekend in L.A. and says that this experience on Work Out means he’s going to be much happier in the clothes he’s wearing while performing.
I asked if he’s tried out Jackie Warner’s new Work Out DVD- and he exclaimed that he has not, because he has already learned the tools it teaches. However, anyone who hasn’t worked with the Sky team, he thinks it would offer an amazing workout.
When asked if he has any advice for those facing their own weight loss or emotional issues – Micah said “You’ve gotta mix it up!”. “Right when you feel like you’re getting bored of the food, you’re getting bored of the cardio, you’re getting bored of the training sessions, you’re getting bored in the gym… Please have the power and the knowledge to be aware that you’re getting bored, shake it up and find something new. I couldn’t run anymore. I was dying. I was like, I gotta get a bike, I can’t stop my cardio. And then I couldn’t bike any more, so I started taking cardio dance classes. Every time I changed it I got re-inspired. I would not let myself feel let down that I wasn’t doing what I wanted to do and fulfilling my mission of being a better person.”

We, at DietsInReview.com, were one of the first in line at our local Best Buy to pick up the new Wii Fit this morning. After a few hours with the new exercise game we have put together a short video overview of the product.
But before I show you the video I want to point out a few things.
The line was at least 30 people long at 9:30 am, each person buying multiple Wii Fit accessories along with the game. It appears that Nintendo has spawned a new fitness game industry on day one.
The balance board appears to well made – very solid.
In line we heard chatter about more games and exercise tools coming out that will also make use the Wii’s balance board.
We have 4 friends over right now all playing (exercising?) with the Wii Fit. When is the last time you had your friends over to exercise
I was very impressed with the packaging and the quality of the materials. The balance board also comes with a set of replacement feet, I guess they wear out easily? Below is our video overview showcasing a few of the games as well as documenting some of the setup procedures.
