‘The Biggest Loser’
‘The Biggest Loser’ reboot will premiere Jan. 28 on USA Network. The show will follow 12 contestants as they begin to transform their lives. Audiences will see them not only focusing on losing weight and achieving better overall health but also confronting the obstacles in their lives that made them unhealthy in the first place. Bob Harper is the host and he’ll be joined by trainers Erica Lugo and Steve Cook. ‘I’ve learned a lot over the last two years since suffering a heart attack,’ Bob said in a statement. ‘I know more than ever that it’s about overall health and living your absolute best life inside and out, plus finding ways to overcome the everyday obstacles that we all face. That is what we are doing with the show. We are going to be changing lives and it is going to be big. I cannot wait to get started!’ See photos of the cast now.
