Why a Personal Trainer Gained 60 Pounds to Help His Client Lose Weight

JJ Peterson has always been the picture of health but when he took on the task of helping a contestant lose weight on TV, he did something remarkable. Peterson actually gained 60 pounds so that he could understand how it felt for the contestant, 389-pound Ray Stewart, to shed the weight on the A&E show "Fit To Fat To Fit." To gain the weight, Peterson ate everything in sight. It took him four months to gain the weight and then both men began their journey to get fit. #InsideEdition

How much do you have to care for someone’s health to lose most of your life’s hard work and then gain it back. He has the right job.

[aymennorth]

[Yrt_rt]

That’s a whole other level of “I got you”

Imagine if after the trainer gained 60lbs, the dude wasn't interested in becoming fit anymore 😂😂😂

[gustavgnoettgen]

He still didn't look bad, just hefty.
Not good, not terrible.

[alaynahennemann]

He doesn't look that bad after he gained the weight

[Masikinias]

For some reason when the personal trainer was 60 more lbs, he looked like John Cena

I'm pretty fat and I told myself a while ago that when/if I get skinny someday, I would want to be a personal trainer because I know how hard it is and that I will be willing to re-gain weight just so I can do it with the client.

[onyx_vii]

He probably lowkey just wanted an excuse to binge eat. I don't blame him lol

[BryceGrimball]

So 4months to get fat BOI WTF TAKES ME ONE NIGHT

“It took him 4 months to gain 60 pounds”
Me: *Breathes *gains 80 pounds

The personal trainer not only has to be your trainer, but your friend. This is amazing that he was willing to gain all that weight just to go on the journey with him. I think this guy didnt lose his commitment because his trainer didnt either. Props to him💪

[navaneeth]

I remember joining gym and making my trainer a drug addict

[weirdcreep]

*Him:* Eats everything, gains 60 pounds in 4 months
*Me:* Eats basically nothing and looks at food, gains 50 pounds
