The Biggest Loser Resort at Fitness Ridge in Ivins, Utah recently opened its doors. It’s the latest of several “The Biggest Loser” health and fitness products. Fans of the show may enjoy this unique resort.
Guests can expect a comprehensive weight-loss experience with a focus on exercise, healthy nutrition and education. It’s much the same as what contestants on NBC’s “The Biggest Loser” experience, except, ahem, more private, of course! The resort is set amid majestic red bluffs, towering vermilion sandstone and black lava rock.
Guests at the resort may enjoy the minimum one-week weight loss program, or stay as many weeks as they wish. A registered dietitian and licensed counselor are available on-site.
The average day at The Biggest Loser Resort may consist of:
- At least six hours of physical exercise (from hiking in the majestic Snow Canyon State Park, to swimming, kickboxing, or mat pilates and more)
- Education series designed to prepare guests to begin a new, healthier way of living, including instruction on meal preparation
- Three low-fat, low-calorie meals prepared with an emphasis on creativity and flavor, including dessert favorites like chocolate-covered strawberries
- Relaxing after exercise at the resort’s full-service salons, geared toward relieving tension and restoring energy, balance and focus
If you’re one of the first to visit the resort, please share your thoughts with others in comments.
