Biggest Loser Resort

A weight loss getaway set in scenic Utah inspired by the reality series.


BACKGROUND

If you have ever dreamed about losing weight Biggest Loser-style, but without the cameras, then the Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge has just turned your dream into a reality.

Located in southern Utah, the Biggest Loser Resort is an exclusive weight loss destination that offers you the same elements of the famous structured diet and exercise plan that is followed by the Biggest Loser contestants. Plus, the Resort's affordable rates allow you to meet your health goals whether it is losing weight or experiencing a fitness getaway, without lightening up your wallet. In fact, with its calorie-controlled meals, scenic calorie-burning hikes, customized personal training and nutrition education classes, the only thing lightening up will be you.

Each day, there is an outlined itinerary which includes lots of exercise, meals and educational classes. A typical day begins at 8 a.m. with a hike in the nearby mountains followed by a water aerobics class, a healthy lunch, more exercise and then a nutritious dinner. When the day's set activities end around 6:30 p.m. you are free to get a massage at the resort's spa, read a book outside or simply crash in your private guest room.

Programs are available for adults and teenagers ages 14 to 17. You can stay on-site at the resort or at a nearby off-site location for a minimum of one week or for an entire month or longer.

DIET and NUTRITION

Each meal prepared at The Biggest Loser Resort has been designed by the on-site Executive Chef and Registered Dietitian, and has been approved by the team of doctors and nutritionist who participate on the Biggest Loser show. In addition, all meals are calorie-controlled so that the guest does not have to worry about counting calories or fat grams.

Meal times are structured around the day's activity-filled program and are consumed in a group-style setting.

  • Breakfast includes eggs, fruit, granola parfaits, smoothies and healthy muffins.
  • Lunch includes salads, soups, sandwiches, burritos and pizza.
  • Dinner includes entree-style salads, chicken, salmon and enchiladas.
  • Snacks and desserts include fresh fruit, sorbet and decadent but guilt-free items like chocolate pie and fruit cobblers.

Each day, guests must also attend one to two nutrition education classes which teach real-life healthy eating skills. Label-reading, portion control, the role of exercise, mindful eating, calorie-counting and cooking demonstrations are just some of the topics taught to guests by the staff's dietitians, chefs and physical trainers.

EXERCISE

Just like on the show, exercise and physical activity are a prominent part of the Biggest Loser Resort weight loss plan. One of the most favorable components of the resort is its enormous access to a variety of workouts. From the state-of-the-art indoor gymnasium equipped with cardio machines, free weights and countless other pieces of exercise equipment and props, the expansive aerobics room, to taking a water aerobics class in the massive outdoor pool or trekking along a gorgeous and heart-thumping hike in Zion National Park, it won't take much to motivate guests to spend four to six hours every day working out.

All fitness routines are closely monitored and customized by the Biggest Loser Resort personal trainers.

CONCLUSION

The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge is a weight loss destination spot for anyone looking to lose weight or experience a healthy, action-filled and scenic getaway. Just like the popular reality series, the Utah-based resort features all of the main components of the successful weight loss reality series including diet, exercise, trained health professionals, motivation and education, but without the limelight of the cameras.

This sounds really interesting. I'd never consider going on a reality TV show because I'm camera-shy and it just doesn't interest me, however getting the same level of training as TBL campus is quite appealing, and would be a great jump start for anyone to get their head in the weight-loss game. posted Oct 21st, 2009 2:09 pm
