BACKGROUNDBACKGROUND Start the Diet Now Advertisement

Having a personal trainer means working really hard and lots of discipline. The reward is that you always picture yourself with the dreamy trainer - so that makes up for it. With Bob Harper, you get the entire package - a good-looking, personable trainer who is dedicated to helping you realize your full potential. Bob has many years of experience and is certified with several notable fitness organizations.

Bob became a household name and put his mark on the fitness landscape by being one of the wildly popular trainers on NBC's hit show The Biggest Loser. The spring of 2008, Bob continued his success as one of the most respected trainers in the world with the publication of his book "Are You Ready! To Take Charge, Lose Weight, Get in Shape and Change Your Life." The book is a well-rounded and smart approach to managing the emotional side of weight, nutritious eating and regular exercise and physical activity.

Bob has a true passion for his work - and you get to reap the benefits. Exercise is usually as fun as dental work and watching paint dry. However, Bob Harper's practical advice, friendly disposition and consistent motivation make him a valuable partner.

DIET and NUTRITIONDIET and NUTRITION

On Biggest Loser, he promotes his Eat More Diet. He suggests that all of that food you might be cutting out could be the answer to why you're not losing weight. Your body needs certain calories and nutrients to function properly and become less dependent on fat stores. Bob suggests that by consuming between four and six smaller meals throughout the day, you'll be able to beat hunger before it starts. You'll consume a diet that is low calorie and low carb. Portion control is also important, since you can always have too much of a good (or bad) thing. An example of a day on Bob Harper's Eat More Diet could be: - Breakfast Five egg whites with turkey bacon

  • Morning Snack: Slice of deli chicken with string cheese and mustard

  • Lunch: Albacore tuna on a spinach salad with balsamic vinaigrette

  • Afternoon Snack: Laughing Cow light cheese with a celery stick

  • Dinner: Grilled salmon with steamed asparagus and a tossed salad

EXERCISEEXERCISE

Bob is a trainer, so he is focused on exercise. Should you follow his DVD program through Push.tv, subscribe to the Biggest Loser Club or read his book, you can definitely expect to get moving. Exercise will vary on both programs with Biggest Loser being more customized to your needs.

Harper is also a big practitioner and promoter of yoga, and many of his workouts have a yoga concentration or influence.

CONCLUSIONCONCLUSION

Bob Harper is certainly making a name for himself in weight loss circles. While he's been a highly sought-after trainer in L.A. for years, working with names like Gwyneth Paltrow and Ben Stiller, he's now more accessible than ever. Bob is a trainer on NBC's Biggest Loser, author of a weight loss book, star of several exercise DVDs and a featured speaker for many events. His approach to weight loss is practical and realistic. He motivates you to start by recognizing important changes on the inside and working toward the physical changes on the outside. Both the DVD videos and Biggest Loser are affordable, and both make losing weight a lot more fun than you've probably had before.

Hey Bob,
I am from your home town in Tennessee. I know several of your family and I tallk to them regularly. I am a few years yonger than you so you had moved from Stroudsville by the time I was born. I am 40 years old and I weigh 270 pounds. I would love the opportunity to work out with you, however I have very bad knees so my exersice is limited until I get some of this weight off. Well, that's hard without exercise! Can you help me? I am a Kindergarten teacher, so is it possible to do a show for teachers only and film in the summer months? That would be my dream come true! Spending the summer with you and lose weight and come home a new healthier person!

Mr. Bob is great. I make sure I am home in time to watch the biggest loser because of him. Because of Bob and Julian, i love reading books on health, where before I would not open a book. I am sorry to hear about his mom. I am sure she was very proud of him . . Keep up the good work Bobby Boy . . .

I would love to have the dvd, but with my husband the only one on social security and limited income, I cant afford it. I have over 300 lbs and I would love to get down to at least 140. My will power isnt good and when you have to cook for a small husband, he expects you to eat right along with him. Im in a rut., Sorry to hear about Bobs mom, God Bless Tammy

When donuts and other 'treats' are brought in to the office, I now find myself "What Would Bob Do"? I can then walk away and feel good about it!

Bob - This is more of a question than a comment. I am 57 years old and quit smoking 1 year ago. Since then I have put on about 31 pounds and still only weigh 132. So, obviously, I am not concerned about my weight. I am concerned about my belly. I keep reading conflicting opinions of what exercises to do to flatten it. I trust your opinion so could you please let me know what exercises will help me flatten my belly. You are totally cute!!! Thanks for your help, Nancy
