Star Trainer Pretends He's The First Human To Introduce Dumb Crash Diet To Middle America
LatestHaven’t you been SO worried about middle America catching onto crash diets, juice fasts, and other ultimately unhealthy, pointless exercises in self-restriction? I sure have!
Fuck walking on a treadmill every day and slowly, realistically dropping some pounds that you can KEEP off, I’ve thought to myself. When will someone show us salt of the earth folks that now you can go on a liquid diet, lose a small toddler’s worth of weight in four seconds and gain it back almost immediately?
Your worries end here! L.A. trainer and fitness expert Harley Pasternak, who’s worked with Katy Perry, Hilary Duff, Amanda Seyfried and Kimye, learned that America wants quick-‘n’-easy results firsthand when he appeared on ABC’s short-lived women’s weight loss talk show The Revolution. He talks to The Cut about bestowing his new juice fast upon the chubby masses.
Upon encountering the demographic of Average Jane dieters who resort to diet pills and master cleanses, he says, “I realized that the slow-and-steady message I’d been espousing is not a real world solution for everybody. People don’t want to wait 30 weeks, dropping a half a pound a week, to look and feel better.” Gahhh. America likes the show Cops, too, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t be watching Enlightened.
