The Biggest Loser: Glory Days is well into Season 16, and trainer Dolvett Quince admits that the contestants are some of the best yet. So, who are his favorites? And what does he think about the new trainers, Jen and Jessie? Read on to find out!
Dolvett Quince is joined this season by two new trainers on The Biggest Loser, Jen Widerstrom and Jessie Pavelka, plus a familiar face, Bob Harper.
“Jen and Jessie are great,” Dolvett tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY. “They truly care about each person that they are responsible for. It’s important that you connect with people as you try to assist them in ‘life adjustments.’ That is a gift. Both Jen and Jessie have that gift!”
As for the contestants, he’s just as impressed. “These athletes compared to former contestants on the show, come with an ‘I’m ready to be trained’ attitude,” Dolvett explains. “They are coachable. When anyone I train has as much or more willingness than me — and that’s a lot — then they will succeed.”
So who are his favorites of the bunch? Dolvett weighed in. “I will say that I’m particularly fond of Scott, Mike, Sonya and Rob. They are ones to watch, but then again so is Blake, Jordan, Woody and Damien. See what I did there?!”
Though Dolvett is proud of his contestants on the Glory Days season, he still promises to “get ready” for drama. “Teams will be switched, emotions will go crazy, but everybody will kiss and make up, like all families do.”
We had to ask Dolvett about his #1 weight loss tip — because, well, look at him.
“Make lean protein the biggest part of your plate,” he reveals.
He also has a favorite lifestyle tip that we can all get used to: massages!
“Who doesn’t love a message? But seriously, massage really is important for the body to recover, so that you’re ready for your next workout,” says Dolvett, who has partnered up with Brookstone‘s complete line of massage products to promote healthy living. “Not everyone can afford a weekly massage, but nor do you need to if you have a reliable at-home massage device.”
Dolvett will help Brookstone create new products, including a custom-designed workout recovery massager, which he says are a “must have” and an “often overlooked fitness tool.”
Not that anyone will be complaining with Dolvett’s secret tip, but if you need more convincing, he lends his expert knowledge on the importance of massages and how it can help you drop the pounds.
“Massage is a key factor in weight loss,” he says. “Massage reduces the lactic acid built naturally in your body, which is what causes the soreness after a workout. I can’t train while I’m sore — most people can’t and don’t, so they skip workouts. That’s not good or ideal. Massage alleviates that stress, not to mention the relaxation it gives you mentally to conquer your day. You’re a better person when your body feels its best!”
We couldn’t agree more, Dolvett!
The Biggest Loser airs Thursday nights (8/7c) on NBC.
