So the other night after Molly's post about Biggest Loser, I was feeling warm fuzzies for Bob the trainer and thought, "Hmm, I wonder if there's a Bob Harper Fan Club?" After a dedicated Google search, I realized, "NO Sir-ee Bob. Just doesn't exist." (heh heh). Not to worry Bob, Sister Skinny is already on it. (Although now that I think about it, maybe fan club isn't the right word. Sounds very teenager. We're open for suggestions). Love that very "personal", zen-master trainer? We do too. So here's an interview and his training site. Did you know that YOU can train with Bob too?....oh yeah, we also emailed him like the dorks we are to tell him how cool he is. 
For you who aren't (and don't really care to be) familiar with NBC's The Biggest Loser, and trainer Bob (Yes, Crabby, I'm talking about you) not to worry! I threw in a link to the Biggest Loser Viewer Before and After photos. They're pretty amazing, so you can just go hang out there if you like.

Hmmm. I find this extremely interesting. I am in the process of getting a personal trainer. I messed up some of my muscle balance training "mirror muscles" for my wedding. I think a trainer is important. You need to balance agonists and antagonists, I found out, the hard way.
Oh yeah, one little trick for affording a personal trainer... if you have physiotherapy coverage on your extended insurance, and you find a licensed physiotherapist who is also a trainer you can write it off. I've found $500 / year will go a long way towards free personal training sessions.
Julia,
That is a great tip about insurance maybe covering training. If you don't have physiotherapy coverage I also know people who will sign up with a friend and split the cost. It helps defray the cost but you get to do it with a friend and still get the "trainer" benefits.
My biggest problem with the idea of a personal trainer is I hate anyone telling me what to do. Even if they know more than I do. So to pay someone to nag... er, teach me about what I really should be doing instead of what I want to be doing, well, no thanks.
But the gentleman in the picture is certainly a fine looking specimen.
You know if you closely look at the picture, you will see that he is sitting on the treadmill behind him. Nice try buddy! Maybe next time you'll fool us.
Well girls I feel where you are coming because I want to lose a couple of pounds to. Seeing Bob on the biggest loser every day on Style makes me want to try harder to reach my goal of being MRS.SKINNY 4EVER!
Hey does anyone know anything about Bob's book signing tour? I missed him in Paramus, NJ and was wondering if anyone knew the schedule? Thanks
