Thursday felt like a dream come true. Not only did I get to do something I love but I got to work with someone I love.

Jen Widerstrom is all heart and such an inspiration, and not just in the fitness community.

Most of you will know her as the tough but compassionate trainer on The Biggest Loser. I know Jen as the lady that walked into my indoor cycling class 2 years ago, dreading it.

Obviously I quickly converted her and she’s been a regular in my class ever since.

Jen asked me to be a part of her new project, partnered with Rodale, Women’s Health, Men’s Health and Fiji Water. I was honored to be the subject of one episode focusing on fitness professionals that inspire her.

Enjoy the behind the scenes footage and pictures, and watch this space for the release.
