Work Out (2006)

After a tumultuous second season, Bravo's docu-series Work Out is back for a third season featuring the dynamic and beautiful owner of L.A.'s Sky Sport and Spa, Jackie Warner, and her team of trainers.

Jackie's Sky Lab project is back and better than ever this season facing bigger challenges. The new Sky Lab clients are introduced and meet with a doctor for an evaluation and are also set up with Sun Fare, a food delivery program. Jackie also hires JD as a masseuse for the Sky Lab project. Jackie tells the female trainers that she has a surprise for them and announces that they are all going on a lesbian cruise to Mexico. Brianna reveals her jealous side when Jackie tells her that she's going away on the cruise without her and Brianna is especially not happy to hear that Rebecca will be there. Before leaving for the cruise, the girls take a quick detour to buy some sexy bikinis. While the girls are on the cruise the guy trainers and newbie JD gather at Greg's house to play horseshoes. Brian Peeler suggests that all the guys should do a mud run while the girls are away. Rebecca and Erika teach a boot camp on the cruise and Jackie annoys them when she steps in and takes over.

Jackie and the female trainers participate in hilarious poolside activities on a lesbian cruise. While the girls are away, the boys will play …in the mud! Peeler and the male trainers compete as a team in a six-mile run through a muddy obstacle course at Camp Pendleton. Jackie and the girls have a big night of drinking and dancing. The girls push for Renessa to have her first girl on girl experience, but she seems to have her sights set on Jackie. Jesse finally tells Peeler the reason Jackie dislikes him so much. An angry Peeler goes behind Jackie's back to help plan the fund-raiser for the Doug Blasdell foundation.

After the cruise, Jackie assures Brianna that Rebecca will not be a problem anymore. Jackie has a Skylab boot camp and finds out that Skylab client, Deenie, is unhappy with her trainer, Gregg. Later, Deenie and Gregg have a big blowout. Jackie also has to lay down the law with Sky Lab client, Tyra, for being late to her appointments. Jackie has a meeting with a producer about her new fitness DVD. Greg asks Erika to do a cover photo shoot with him. Although Erika starts out being a little self-conscious about her body, she quickly gets over it. She and Greg deliver some amazing photos during their sexy shoot and get to know each other better. The tension between Jackie and Peeler grows when the new Sky Sport office manager, Lisa, tells Jackie that she overheard him talking to Don Scott, the organizer of the Doug Blasdell Foundation Fundraiser. While Brian Peeler trains a client, Lisa is in Jackie's office making fun of his client's fake breasts. The next day Peeler confronts Jackie about the situation and their relationship comes to a shocking boil.

Jackie takes the Skylabbers and trainers on an intense, life-changing weekend in Northern California. While there, Skylab client Deenie's chain smoking and constant excuses cause tension among the other Skylabbers. Meanwhile, Renessa tells Rebecca she has a crush on one of the trainers, prompting Rebecca to play cupid. And, an intense group therapy session at the retreat ends in yelling and tears.

As the Sky lab retreat comes to an end, the trainers head to the hotel bar for a release after an intense weekend. As the cocktails flow, two trainers get cozy. Back in L.A. Gregg pays a visit to Peeler and discovers he has hit an all-time low. Shannon, JD's Skylab client, tells a heartfelt story during her therapy session that inspires him. He visits her at her daughter's rehabilitation center and the two grow even closer. Jackie and the trainers go to the fund-raiser benefit for Doug. At the event Peeler embarrasses himself.

Jackie's mom comes to visit from Ohio. This is the first time she is meeting Jackie's girlfriend, Brianna. On top of that stressful situation, Jackie surprises her mom with the fact that Brianna's family is also in town, making it a full house. Jackie visits her therapist, Dr Shirley, to talk about her mom and the amount of stress she's under. She feels like she's got a full plate, which includes preparing for her upcoming DVD shoot. Jesse's little sister comes to town to visit. Meanwhile, Gregg plays a gig at the Whiskey on the Sunset Strip and the trainers rock out -- especially two who thoroughly enjoy each other's company. Lisa decides to get liposuction and tells Jackie she needs time off and Jackie is unhappy with her decision to have surgery.

Jackie holds auditions to select four of her trainers to appear in her workout DVD. With the shoot only days away, she starts feeling the pressure and struggles with the DVD's workout routine. At the DVD shoot, the chosen trainers realize that they will have to repeat each routine several times for the camera, driving them to tears and physical collapse. Meanwhile, Jesse sets JD up on a blind date with a friend.
