Today, I spent eight hours hanging out with Jillian Michaels, Alison Sweeney and a whole bunch of past contestants from the show.
They were filming the season 10 premiere (which will air in September).
It was a lot (A LOT) of waiting around, but it was worth it to see the past contestants (they look great!) They are like celebrities! So much fun!
We arrived at 7am (because only the first 300 people got to work out with Jillian).
I was so glad to have my friend Stephanie there too!
We had wrist bands to get us into the taping:
While we were in line, they handed out Larabars and fruit for everyone.
First up, we met Amy and Philip!
And Tracy!
Abby!
Hollie!
Brittany, Dan and Jackie:
And Dr. H!
Then we all got our Blue Shirts! (LA is rooting for the Blue Team!)
The Biggest Loser Scale!
Then Jillian and Alison Sweeney took the stage and we did a mini bootcamp with Jillian (pushups, jumping jacks, squat jumps and mountain climbers).
I don’t want to reveal too much information from the episode (I bet NBC wouldn’t like that very much)…
But part of the challenge involved aerobic step-ups.
And all 300 people were invited to join in with the contestants:
I did about 600 stepups during the filming. woo hoo!
Then the winners took off in a limo to head to the ranch!
It was a very LONG day, and it was very cold down near the ocean, but it was really fun. I can’t wait to see how it all comes together in September.
And don’t forget that the Season 9 finale is Tuesday night!
Thanks to my friend Stephanie for letting me use some of her pictures!!!!
