Sugar Ray Leonard and Rocco DiSpirito visit The Biggest Loser

“The Biggest Loser: Couples” get a special workout with boxing champ Sugar Ray Leonard and a valuable cooking lesson from celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito tonight.

First the contestants meet up with DiSpirito and learn how many calories are really in some of their favorite fast food dishes. Then the black and blue teams have a lively cook-off, preparing healthier, low-calorie versions of pizza, burgers and a Mexican entre. The team who prepares the tastiest and lowest calorie dish gets a meal specially prepared by DiSpirito, plus a chance to pick a fortune cookie with an especially valuable fortune inside – an extra vote at elimination.

Then trainer Bob Harper takes the contestants to a 24-Hour Fitness where a surprise guest awaits them – Sugar Ray Leonard! This is especially thrilling for contestant Aubrey, who was previously an amateur boxer. Leonard shows them how much fun burning calories can be when he puts them through a unique shadow boxing workout.

Later, all the contestants head to the Los Angeles Food Bank, where host Alison Sweeney explains this week’s challenge: they’ll race to pack food kits for the hungry and load them on trucks. Each member of the winning team gets an amazing prize – free groceries for a year, plus letters from home.

Then it’s time for last chance workouts, when trainer Jillian Michaels has a dramatic confrontation with the player she feels is the weakest link on her team. And away from the gym, one contestant gives another a very generous gift. Later, all of the contestants are surprised to learn about a new twist at this week’s weigh-in.
