Personal Training T.V. Show – “Workout”

Posted by Fitness Guardian on July 24, 2006

Workout on BravoWorkout - the new Bravo T.V. show about Jackie Warner and her Sky Sport and Spa club is just about to air. 

I think anytime an industry is portrayed on T.V. it’s a double edged sword.  On one hand, the audience exposure to the benefits of personal fitness training will be great for the industry as a whole.  From the reviews and background information I’ve read, Jackie Warner, the show’s main focus is credible, professional and genuinely committed to making a difference in clients lives.

On the downside, there is always a risk of alienating viewers when you showcase the high end of the personal training profession.  Exclusive L.A. studios and spas, egotistical trainers and super-fit clients may not provide a realistic portrayal of fitness training for the masses.

But hey, I’ll reserve all judgment at this point.  I’m looking forward to watching the show.  I’ll be back with my review.

      I love your show, it is motivating. I hope you have some people on next season that have weight issues. I’ve watched this show and to my amazement, I see this gorgeous and smart woman, take so much shit from…..her love in her life. Mimi is a total mess. She has issues, you should not one more second on this horrible relationship. I spent many years of my life in a couple of similar relationships and it’s a total waste of energy and time. Your too smart to live your life stupid…….

    7. angela Wed, 21 Feb 2007 01:57:21 UTC

      Jackie, not only are you a dedicated trainer and biz owner but… YOUR HOT!!!! Your grlfriend is a bit immature. I dont like how she disrespects your mom either. I mean im just saying.
      If you ever come to Ohio to visit your mom, consister getting in touch. I live in Cleveland :( Dont think you would be disapointed. I’m 40 dont look it. People tell me i resemble Eva L ( the girl from housewives show) Come on id be a nice change from the Cal women. ;) Im a great girl from the midwest. Good luck with the new season! p.s. il send pics if you want anytime. xo

      Angela.

      how did doug die?

    9. Kathy Fri, 16 Mar 2007 23:04:10 UTC

      Saw the show “loved it”. Jackie is very hot and has everything going for her ! Sorry…. but loose Mimi ….. she”s just playing you.

    10. Theresa Thu, 22 Mar 2007 11:29:35 UTC

      I would love to know a little bit about Jackie’s eating plan and what she recommends for a jump-start for the weightloss process. I’d like to know how her eating plan differs from all the popular diets. Certainly she hasn’t been in shape all her life! I would love for her to write a book on diet ‘n fitness, for those of us that can’t afford a professional trainer. Actually a DVD or two would even be better. So Jackie, if you do read this, I would love to hear more on this subject! I love your show and think you’re a smart saavy lady. Look forward to seeing the new season!!!

      do you know anyone in the Chico California area that is a really good trainer that will work with someone who is 60…..the trainers here feel that workouts are too risky and shy away from taking someone from 260 lbs down to 160……My doctor says diet pills and a 500 calorie a day diet is what I need, but I feel that a trainer who can teach me proper neutrician will work better and I’m motivated. Any suggestions?
      I was in a motorcycle accident and had hurt my knee but it’s fully recovered now…..

    15. D'Anna Wed, 04 Apr 2007 12:33:45 UTC

      I can’t seem to find a trainer who will take on someone 60 years of age. I was in a motorcycle accident and hurt my knee and put on alot of weight. I want to go from 260 down to 160 for better health. I need someone who understands neutrician. My doctor wants me to just go on 500 calories a day but that is crazy…..can you suggest anyone in the Chico or Oroville area of
      California? Thanks!

      I luv this show i watch it all the time if i am home and it is on i watch it if i am not home it is recording.I would like 2 know how did Doug pass away he was my fav. He is gonna b truly missed. I am over weight and i was wondering if u can give me some tips on losing about 30 pounds.

    17. cynthia m. glock Tue, 17 Apr 2007 16:39:33 UTC

      jackie, i think your show will encourage alot of people who are over weight.
      i was shocked to see that doug passed away, he was such a good hearted person.
      Iknow how he felt i lost my hero my dad 2 years ago to pancreatic cancer. my life
      has never been the same. my christ give you peace and strength through this
      traggic loss. god bless you. i wanted to know if you can give me some tips on how to tone
      done hips and butt.

    18. Marc D Conder Tue, 17 Apr 2007 23:40:16 UTC

      As a gay male, I was initially delighted to see Doug on your show. Not many gay men are presented in anything that even approaches normal on television. It was with some shock I read of his death, and my thoughts were with all the trainors, losing a friend, and family member leaves you with a hole only time seems to heal.
      I do hope another mature gay male is hired, as a role model, just to keep the show balanced. My best wishes for this endevour, yours, Marc Conder

      In today’s world, where children are allowed to “Rule The Roost”, we parents are also allowed to not accept the “lifestyle” you are showing, once again on Bravo. No Thank You.

    20. EA Sat, 21 Apr 2007 17:00:40 UTC

      That’s alright “GIRLS” ~ We’ll go to the Sponsers ! Thanx for showing your true colors by not posting ALL comments, and all your care for our children also. What nice folks we’re supposed to think you are.

    21. Kyetta Sun, 29 Apr 2007 17:46:00 UTC

      I love this show. I love all of the drama that takes place. I can not believe that Doug died and I send out my condolence to family and friends.

    22. sonia Wed, 02 May 2007 03:52:42 UTC

    23. Naomi Fri, 04 May 2007 12:31:35 UTC

      I like the show so far!! My G/F has me watching it…lol Jackie, my G/F thinks you’re HOT!!!

    24. Melanie Tue, 15 May 2007 22:22:57 UTC

      Hi Jackie and Rebecca,

      You are both so inspirational!! Like Rebecca I believe in loving someone for “who” they are on the inside, not the outside package. Stick to your guns, and I hope you both find what you deserve, and are looking for in life.
      P.S Tell Jesse to get a life, and keep his nose out of yours!!!!

      Best wishes,

      I think Jackie is just great! Thank-you for the show. I watched it all the time. I hope you will be back on Bravo soon with your trainers. Keep up the good work!

      How do I buy the workout TV series. are they on DVD? I don’t have
      cable and im dying to see those workout series. pls help where can I get copies of series one and two?

    27. madison Wed, 20 Feb 2008 15:54:22 UTC

      I just want to say that I love your show and think that you are a good person but I have to say Rebecca is HOT!!!! you are lucky to have someone like that I mean beauty,body,and major sex appeal now thats my definition of HOT!!!

    28. madison Wed, 20 Feb 2008 15:58:35 UTC

      man rebecca I just want to say that you are super hot with major sex appeal and thats what i like about you no offense jackie but you are really lucky to have that.

    29. carroll wing Tue, 22 Apr 2008 11:58:33 UTC

      I used to watch and enjoy watching the workout show, but it seems now that the lesbian kissing and jackies girlfriend this and jackies girlfriend that are taking over its like Jackie is turning into Adolph “jackie” Hitler! If you don’t see it her way then take the highway. All it seems to be is lesbian kissing all the time, If you did that at a straight business they would close the doors, be serious you know they would. But the whole show seams to be more and more gay, gay, gay. I don’t care what your sexual preferences are, but MISS Jackie Warner sure does!She is allways saying how she loves her employees, I guess as long as they are gay she does. No wonder her poor mother goes through the hell she does. Well in closing MISS Jackie Warner is not all that she thinks she is and if she is not careful and seperate the straight from the gay at least tone it down some she will lose some more watchers. A little advice MISS Warner care more for your clients then for the constant tongue sucking that has been going on.

      I have been watching for a whille, and was enjoying the show. I just saw the episode when the comment was made about the breast cancer survivor. How dare Brian be fired. You should have had a dicussion and are JUST AS responsible for the comment for not discussing the comment with him. The SIGNIFACANT OTHER of that client made a complaint to the trainer and he went to the BOSS, if the BOSS doesn’t want to face what another employee did wrong and formally reprimand that employee,,, then a business is being run on favortism and raw emotion NOT an actually run by a business owner. The Sky Lab should be sued on air submit a formal appology to ALL cancer survivers. I have not and hope to never have breast cancer, but what if it was you, your mom, or your daughters!! You are in the business of making people better, not putting them down in the gym. The reason a lot of women don’t go to the gym is because of the same comments, if not worse, made by that employee. She is the one who should have been reprimanded much more than saying “I’m Sorry” because she was “”caught”" saying it.

    31. Dani Tue, 13 May 2008 19:29:08 UTC

      I used to watch the show as well……..but no more! I was beyond disgusted by Jackie’s behaviour. Sure would love to know why that “portion” of the comment was not aired? Jackie was also nasty on another show when she wouldn’t allow peeler(?) in the room regarding his friend, even if it was about the “business”, I’m sure it would have made him feel good.
      I don’t even want to hear about “editing”

    32. Elizabeth Wed, 14 May 2008 09:33:18 UTC

      Hello Jackie, I am very excited to finally leave some sort of comment. I recently caught your show and I love it. I can watch all episodes back to back. You have very fine trainers and your awesome from head to toe. I have always been into some sort of training, I went hard last year and got really thin. The winter came and I gained it all back. Now I am back were I started and am trying very hard to do it again. But, it seems a little harder this time around. Do you have any advice for me. I was wondering if you have a nutrition book or recipes to use and workout regiment to go by. I would love to actually go down to your gym and work out. But that is not in my budget. Smile But, I just may save up bite the bullet and show up one day. That would be awesome. Well I thought I would say hi and let you know you are doing a great job. Thanks for everything. LIz

    33. mel Wed, 14 May 2008 15:45:51 UTC

      I as well can not believe what happened b/w Jackie and Peeler! I am disgusted by what occured. So if Jackie did or did not say anything about Peeler;s client Jackie should have the balls to listen to what he says and apologize. Jeez..even if she didin’t want to she should have knowing they would use that portion of the show! Jackie seems to have gotten really cocky and seems to have a less caring attitude this season. Lisa….what in the world is this girl doing there? I mean, did they purposely put this girl (who does nothing, by the way) on this show for a Melrose feel? She shouldn’t even be a part of the show..part of the skylab maybe but not the show. She serves no purpose except to start up a bunch of trouble. As a matter of fact she makes me want to stop watching the show because I feel the show is taking that kind of turn…too much drama. If there is someone on this show you should fire it would be Lisa simply b/c she is the one who made the comment about the client. Shut your mouth and actually work, LISA!

    34. chuck Sat, 17 May 2008 20:46:19 UTC

      Jackie is on a serious ego trip, which is ok. However, she is very controlling and has minimal leadership skills. I realize its just a tv show and is scripted to give viewers drama in the framework of a “reality” show but still, her character is a very emotionally unhealthy being. She would never run another other business of any shape or form in a successful manner. Her, “its-all-about-me” attitude wouldn’t make it. There would be a mass exodus.

      By the way, Jessie, grow some and start acting within a decade of your actual age.

    35. Evelyn Sun, 22 Jun 2008 13:45:54 UTC

      Hi! Jackie. I watch your show when am able to do so. I love to watch it. I wish that i could afford you to help with my weight. I have gain about 50 lbs. Thats not cool. I have lost my girlish figure. Not cool. Please, help Jackie. I have lots of respect of what you set out to do in your shows. Its positively great. I also, think your hot an very self reliable sexy chica. Jackie keep up the good work. An kick as- . Your it. Keep up the good work.
      Love your show.
      Sincerly Evelyn V.

    36. Lisa W. Fri, 29 Aug 2008 22:45:46 UTC

      I agree the show lately has become more about Jackie’s love interest than anything else lately.I don’t mind some but get back to showing real info we the viewer can learn about weight loss and healthy living..Still Love the Show for Now.You should not be fooln’ around with your employee or your employer!! NOt COOL………Lisa from Canada
