The long awaited Workout season 3 is almost upon us.  We expect to see Jackie Warner’s new clothing line, supplements, trainers and relationships in full bloom.

Behind The Workout
Meantime, here’s some insight on how the show was filmed and edited compliments of After Ellen Piece:

Andy Cohen, Bravo’s senior vice president of programming and production, was part of the team that created and developed Work Out. He said: “At Bravo we follow the person. Jackie happens to be gay. … We didn’t have a mandate saying we need a lesbian show. We just found Jackie.”

Cohen went on to credit the gym setting with bringing out the drama in the personal lives of central and supporting characters alike: “You go into a gym and you start talking to your trainer, and suddenly you’re kind of spilling your soul. [The drama on Work Out] is kind of the natural course of what happens.”

And as for how the show is filmed and edited…

The process of taking the real life of Sky Sport to the screen is relatively straightforward. According to Cohen, for 12 weeks “you’re shooting for eight, nine hours at a time with various people. Probably five, six days a week.

You may be on Jackie three to four days that week, and you may cover other stuff with the other trainers.” The producers sift through the hours of film and cut 99 percent of it to create nine 44-minute episodes that tell a compelling story.

 Now it’s time to see how all this work pays off.   Season Three of Jackie Warner’s Workout Show premiers Tuesday, April 15th  at 11pm on Bravo.
