In this episode of the Next Level Health and Fitness Podcast, Craig and I sat down to recap the brand-new Biggest Loser documentary on Netflix. It’s a three-part series that dives into one of the most controversial weight loss shows ever — and we went deep breaking it all down.

We talked about the pros, the cons, and what the show got completely wrong when it comes to creating lasting results. More importantly, we shared what you can actually take away from watching it — and how those lessons apply to dieting and choosing a more sustainable approach.

We also dug into the 2016 research study that followed Biggest Loser contestants years after the show. We gave our take on the findings, what they revealed about metabolism, and what it means for anyone out there trying to lose weight and keep it off.

Here’s what you’ll hear in this episode:

Our honest thoughts on Netflix’s Biggest Loser documentary
The good, the bad, and the ugly of the show’s approach
Why extreme dieting never works long-term
Insights from the 2016 metabolism study
Why ownership and sustainability are the real keys to success

If you’ve ever felt frustrated with dieting, struggled to keep weight off, or wondered what really happens when you take extreme approaches to weight loss, you’re going to get a lot from this one.
