Well, our new message boards software lets us create polls...so let's try one out!

Vote in the poll, and then discuss your choices in this topic.

You're the only one who can use this software......

Maybe we'd like to start other polls as well.

I vote Andre because it would be beneficial for Jackie and Andre to make a connection and by working out together, they would be forced to see each other in a different light, thus creating a new found respect for one another.

What about Peeler? Now that would be a challenge.

why isn;t peeler a choice.?he hates jackie - he would give her some intense hard core sessions

I would vote Peeler or Gregg. Get some real, old school guys in there. She seems like the personality that would eat that up.

Peeler has no class, much less respect for Jackie ;therefore, he would not have Jackie's best interest at heart. You are correct, he would work her intensely, but for the wrong reasons.........spite and revenge.

yeah that would be a disaster... gregg definitely

Gregg is clueless. He does not appear to be all that knowledgeable. What's up with him and Jackie too? We never see much interaction between them.

Why do you think Gregg is clueless? I thought he had some decent insights.... just wondering?

NOT ENOUGH CHOICES LOL

MY VOTE WOULD BE THE DOG WHISPERER GUY LOL

HE CAN TEACH AN UNRULY DOG AND MAKE THEM GEMS

AFTER THIS SEASON

JACKIE IS DEF A BIATCH IN HEAT THAT NEEDS A LITTLE

RE EDUCATIONAL TRAINING IN CLASS AND TACT

JMO

TAKE CARE OVER THERE

ALOHA

HAVE FUN

My daughter, who survived a near fatal wreck, 7 years ago. In spite of her scars on her face, and is still drop dead gorgeous, she has always had a mad passion for physical fitness, and is now a personal trainer!

Brian should be because maybe he could make her human again!!!!
Jackie,
I am soooooooooooooo disappointed in you this season. First, you flirted with other people so bad while you were with Mimi and then you wondered why she acted immature and hurt to you! Second, you used Rebecca and it was VERY unprofessional to play around with one of your employees. I very suprised that you didn't get sued over it... and now that you have no use for her you deny her any contact. Maybe I could live with those two things ... BUT NOW... you deny Brian from being part of Doug's charity planning???!!!! That you would stoop so low that you would even use the death of Doug????!!!! I'm sure you will probably think this is someone that knows Brian but it is not. It was one of your biggest fans that now does not like you or your show anymore. Brian LOVED Doug and you are so hateful to him all the time. Your ego needs to take a break and you need to be HUMAN again and you are not so big that you cannot end up a nobody very soon. Doug loved Brian and Doug would have wanted Brian to be a part of his fund raisers. I'm so very very very disappointed in you. It's so sad.

I totally agree my friend and let me just add that if Jackie is to retain one ounce of dignity, she needs to do another episode really quickly and she should apologize to everyone for acting so badly. The only psycho vampire on the show (someone that sucks the energy out of everyone around them) is Jackie. I couldn't believe Jackie's shrink told Jackie that Rebecca was the psycho vamp. Dr. Shirley, please start watching her show before you ruin your own reputation! When Jackie started making out with her girlfriend infront of her employees I had to turn the channel. Bravo, please get a new fitness trainer to do a different show! This show has become painful to watch, it's like watching a three-year-old destroying everyone elses toys and then acting like she wasn't even in the room when it happened. I cannot watch anymore. She treats her employees like dirt. If I ever had a boss that said "you'll do what I tell you to do," I would have walked off the job. I've never been so upset over a show before and you know that I am not a friend of Brians because I've been on this board awhile now! C-ya at the club JYS. Farewell Workout.

OK, So I haven't been around in a while. I watched as much as the show as I could before falling asleep in total boredom. Jesse still cracks me up. The new trainer is definitely cute, but 'Body by Nautilus - brains by Matel' will only get you so far in life. But I do have to agree with him that Jackie's idea of a clothing line lack's taste and style. Ergo, "Who would I choose to train Jackie?" Hands down vote would go to Tim Gunn. He can teach her something about quiet dignity and grace, and, if she shuts up and listens to him, she might be able to salvage that catastrophe she calls a 'clothing line'.
Jackie Warner - business Woman = joke
Jackie Warner - fashion enthusiast = bigger joke
Jackie Warner - Gay Icon = sets back all advances of equal rights movement at least 50 years
Jackie Warner - persona as portrayed on TV = I feel sorry for her mother
Bravo, have a heart. Stop this girl from torturing herself and her family any further.

I vote for him too, just to see the fur fly! Now THAT would be entertainment!!!!

I think Jackie needs to be "re-trained" by her mother. She apparently never learned how to respect others.

She should get another therapist if this one is contributing to her personality.

First off, I was training and Peeler almost made me throw up, so yes, I probably didn't look my best. He had me doing crazy plyos and inverted sit-ups on an exercise ball, holding my legs.

Second of all, Jackie was the one who was doing the trash talking and Lisa chimed in. If you go to Bravo's site, she completely denies ever saying anything. She is extremely unprofessional. She never even acknowledged, not during or after the incident. That was my first and last time to ever train there. I only went on the show as a favor to Brian Peeler. To say that she didn't know who I was seems obsurd since I had to sign off to even appear on the show. I do not have a trainer and haven't had one years. It is really unfortunate that they used that incident to fire Peeler.

Thank you to those who have shown their support on the site and on my myspace. I really appreciate it!

Here is a link to a petition to get this show off the airwaves:
http://www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/643731154 vbrep_register("164508161")

Jillian Michaels, the Biggest Loser trainer, since she is the real ownership behind Sky Sport and Spa.

Jackie is a control freak and I doubt it would be wise for any of her subordinates to put theirselves in a position to be her trainer...she'd fire them as soon as they opened their mouth to her...I can't ***STAND**** her and hope Peeler opens his own fitness club and takes all her trainers w/ him...I'm gay but she is just too arrogant and isn't a good role model....I'm embarrassed for her.

The devil should be training Jackie...while Jackie burns in hell.

Is Andre even on the show anymore? I think a lot of the Work Out TV show trainers have left for one reason or another... possibly the drama?

But honestly, Jackie wouldn't work for just anyone. Seeing that Peeler has been fired, he wouldn't be able to. Gregg seems to me like a little bit of a airhead. I think he is just a guy who likes the gym. Greg Plitt on the other hand would be awesome for Jackie...she'd want to kick his butt and turn on her competitive side!

Jackie is an amazing businesswoman. Granted, she has no tolerance for disrespect and takes things out of control but Peeler was not a good trainer. He time after time insulted her and called her many derogatory names. She put up with him for much longer than she should have. If you need proof that Peeler is a womanizing jerk, look to his marriage. It is falling apart because of him, just like he lost his job. She is an amazing role model...overcoming her turmoil and creating one of the most successful gyms in the country. She gives hope to all of us out there who want to become something. She may have confidence, it may get annoying, but the woman is one amazing person. Give her some credit, y'all.

I thin Brian Peeler should be her trainer- in his gym!!

Sorry- no understanding of this at all. I was a huge fan of Work Out, but I wont be wasting my time any longer with Jackies horrible freakin attitude toward EVERYONE- including her customers. She is NOT the goddess she thinks she is and she is really wearing everyones nerves very thin. You have to be a decent human being when dealing with health issues, and she is not and her assistant is the lowest scum too.

I completely agree. I have all the respect for someone living "out" in the world today and wanting the respect of others. However, Jackie has fully fallen into her own ego and is completely self-absorbed. EVERYTHING with Jackie is about "respect." Did she give her mother the respect to warn her about her girlfriend's family coming? She knows her mother isn't great in mixed public and is still trying to come to terms with her daughter being gay. So she basically humiliates her. Jackie fires Peeler because he stands up for his client and, though Jackie was completely unprofessional, HE deserved an apology as well for her being SO astoundingly rude to people in her own gym. She doesn't have to worry about her trainers or her mother...she needs to worry DEEPLY about HERSELF.

The Comment of the Century!!!

Yes Jackie is an amazing businesswoman, but she is a horrible boss. She had plenty of reasons to fire Peeler before but chose the time he was concerned about his client, and asking about what was said about it. She has dated, kissed, and totally crossed the line with her employees. She has shown she has no training when it comes to the need for low impact workouts, and no respect for real expert opinions. No one makes an obese woman with leg injuries involving tendons, work out on sand. She made no suggestions to her trainers on how to work around a leg injury. She only insulted the client as being moody. For a gym, that has said it is for rehab, they are clueless about how to deal injuries, and has no water facilities, which is one of the best places for low impact, high energy exercises. She also cannot keep up with how many advertisers has pulled out. I know that Propel, SoyJoy, and Olivia cruises have all pulled their support. I have also heard Maybelline has, but I am not sure of that one.(anyone know for sure?)
Being a great businesswoman, doesn't make you a great human being, or a responsible caring boss, or a senstive educated trainer.

First of all-

It is hard to judge who is and who isn't a good trainer by watching the show. They rarely show actual training. Just a snippet here and a snippet there, then off to dinner in Weho or some party at Jackie's or wherever, or the trainers having drinks gossiping about clients or each other. Good TV, because actual training is boring, but not very educational about training.

Peeler- Maybe a good trainer, maybe not. I never saw it. He definitely had issues, besides drinking too much. He wanted to be Alpha Dog, but he worked for someone else. Their playpen, their rules. Don't like it? Start your own gym. I am 45yo and I would work his ass into the ground. No question. But he seemed sweet enough, if he could just accept the fact that he worked for someone else and did not call the shots. Hey Peeler, grab your balls and start your own business and invest the time and money. Hands of Michaelangelo? Please. Start at home with your own mediocre body.

Jackie- She is clueless. I won't repeat what everyone else has said but don't use your business to find hot tail. Act like a business owner. Don't act totally unprofessional with your employees, then ask them to be professional. I have owned businesses. I liked my employees, but I never crossed the line and turned socializing with them into personal relationships. I have my friends and I have my employees. I don't cross the two. One minute you are Jackie the employer and the next minute you are making out with Rebecca or whoever. Then you are pissed off because an employee doesn't respect you. People respect those that earn respect. Just being "Jackie" is not enough.

If this is the best gym in LA, I will give up working out. Not even close. The best drama in a gym with average trainers but a TV show? OK, I will give them that.

Jackie has no tolerance for disrespect because deep inside she knows that she hasn't earned respect. She is a talented woman at selling herself, and an image of herself that she wants people to buy.

Jackie! Liberated woman! Watch the show and decide.

Jackie! Business woman! Watch the show and decide.

Jackie! Spokeswomen for lesbians! Well, she mostly hits on straight women or very needy lesbians. Watch the show and decide.

Jackie is no more, or less, than I am. Another gay person fighting personal demons from growing up Gay in a straight world. I don't fault her for that, but I don't exalt her for it either.

To jackieyousuck- well, the handle says it all. I am sure you are COMPLETELY impartial. Peeler, at least as far as we saw in the episode, got completely drunk and made a fool out of himself at Doug's rememberance, not only on the stage, but in his drunken talk with Jackie backstage. Edited or not, he was drunk and stupid in his rambling speech to get back with SkySports, saying Jackie needed him as much as he needed her and that he loved her and that he would HELP her. HUH? He can't even help himself. No disrespect, because I have been drunk and sounded just like him, but Peeler is Peeler. Passion, little talent, and in 5 years he will be lucky if he is working at a gym in Fresno teaching aerobic classes to middle aged women.

Jesse Brune- This guy is a trainer? Sweet kid, but people actually pay for his services? He has been a trainer for what, 2 years? And Sky Sports, being the best training facility in LA, makes him a trainer? He is a nice kid who would not even be a trainer at my 24HR Fitness.

JD Jordan- Another very nice sweet kid. Cute as all hell. But people pay SkySport prices to be trained by a guy that is really a massage therapist? Why? If I went to SkySport, which Jackie touts as the best of the best, and they gave me JD as a trainer? I would seriously ask for a refund. After I got his phone number. No offense to him at all, but he is not a trainer.

Training people involves allot more than telling them to do two more of this and six more of that. I like that he cries with his clients and feels their pain, but really?

Workout has shown me two things: My trainer should be cute and he should tell me to do two more of whatever I am doing.

Where do I sign up? I am in great shape but I need a date.
