TBL 6×08: The Contest gives way to The Challenge and it’s stairiffic!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Leigh decided to stay with the show. The families all weighed in as a group to see how much they’ve lost so far and to show the family leaderboard.

Also, The Contest started once more. This time it’s weights. Endless repetitions of weights.
When we left last night Jarrod and Damien were doing battle in the final round…

… and that’s where we pick up. Jarrod coolly lifting weights, Damien mouthing off to us in the side bits about The Duncans being cocky.

TBL 6×05: Trains! Also, first competitive weigh-in of the year…

Previously on The Biggest Loser the contestants pretended to be trains. Choo-choooooooooo!

Epic train pulling race between the four teams on Friday night which we have yet to see the final result from.

Commando Steve was given a reprieve from training his team for the rest of the week thanks to Tiffiny’s Team Duncans victory in the 10k treadmill challenge.

Tonight… We find out who gets their train to the end of the line first, then later we find out how much the contestants have all lost in the space of their first week at Camp Biggest Loser.

The intro also teases an elimination tonight. Ordinarily that would be a Monday thing but with the show only airing four nights a week this year I guess we don’t have to wait 24 hours anymore? Awesome.

Back to the Challenge… and the first bit of footage we see is Sarah screaming like a fat women’s tennis player.
The Moons are catching up to the Duncans and… wait, Craig collapsed on Friday. This is still replay footage!

TBL 6×04: You Choo-Choo-Choooose Me?

Previously on The Biggest Loser the trainers weighed in after their week of family-induced excess. With Commando Steve promising death to his team.

Certainly one way to get the weight off them!

There was also The Contest, with one team winning “power over the game” which has something to do with the trainers…

Tonight! We find out who wins, what it means for everyone and then we have drama! With Sharlene apparently walking out after a family feud, seemingly something to do with Lara.

Also, the first Challenge of the year kicks off. Each team will have to train a pull. I mean pull a train! But, spoilers, we won’t find out who wins tonight…

As the episode picks up we’re watching Jarrod and Jodie in the final stretch of The Contest. Jodie’s got 1km to go so she picks up the pace a bit.

TBL 5×52: So You Think You Can Dance, Fatty?

Previously on The Biggest Loser David gained weight, losing the Double Bracelet and gaining the Nothing Bracelet. Double Whammy!

Tonight, Jason Coleman’s going to train the contestants (and Michelle!) in some dancing stuff.
Plus a fight for Immunity between Phoebe, Lisa and Shannon. David’s ineligible this week, also as a result of having gained weight. Poor bugger’s being kicked from pillar to post!

Today the contestants are totally in the dark instead of the trainers, Michelle says. Michelle’s hair is… A mess. Apparently that’s all part of today’s surprise as Lisa and Phoebe both comment on it.
They’re training off-site today so they all pile into cars and head off.

TBL 5×33: Pole Dancing Challenge!

Previously on The Biggest Loser Jarna was eliminated and nobody at home really cared all that much. Nor did anyone in Camp really care that much, except Lisa.

Tonight there’ll be oodles of prep work in the form of intense exercise for the upcoming 21km half marathon.
Also, a mini-challenge. Balance on top of some poles over a pool or something. Okay? Okay!

As Michelle and Shannan jog up to Camp Michelle reveals that the half marathon is only a day away!
