Again.

Okay.

Set you up, okay?
33
Oh, I'm on the ground.
34
What's happening?
35
You just kind of passed out.
36
I got to tell you,
37
seeing that man drop down to the ground was one of the scariest things I've ever seen at The Biggest Loser House.
38
Good.
39
Squeeze back.
40
Squeeze.
41
When Jerry fell, that was the moment I thought to myself, we're all sick.
42
I mean, we really need help here.
43
This makes everything so very real.
44
It's not a question of maybe someday I could lose him.
45
It's not a question of that now.
46
It's a question of when.
47
And if we don't do something now, it's not going to be an option.
48
Yes, sir.
49
The rescue people told me he was responding.
50
He knew where he was.
51
He knew what was going on, that he was getting better.
52
Hey, darling.
53
How you doing?
54
It was hard not to be with him, but he got good help, got good care, and that's the important part.
55
Okay, everyone.
56
Jerry's going to go to the hospital.
57
He's going to have some tests run.
58
They're going to monitor him for a little bit.
59
And once they feel confident, they're going to send him back to us.
60
And Bob and Jillian's good care.
61
I think we want you to understand right off the bat that it is about life and death.
62
You guys are exactly where you need to be right now
63
because you're looking at your future if you don't change what you're doing right now.
64
That's going to be you.
65
And with that said, this is going to be a house that all your dreams can come true.
66
Everything that you've been wanting to do, everything that you've not been able to do at home, you're going to be able to do here.
67
This is a house of hope.
68
So, our next order of business to get the teams.
69
organized.
70
Jillian and Bob will each pick one team.
71
And from there, that team will get to pick the next team.
72
And the next team gets to pick the next team, and so forth.
73
We hear we got to pick teams, and you start registering in your head, someone's gonna be last.
74
We've all been there.
75
We've all been the fat kid in gym class, and now we're a bunch of fat kids at a really fat gym glass

98
The pink team.
99
The yellow team.
100
Two teams left.
101
It's too hard to decide.
102
We're going to stick with our mission, people.
103
Come on over here, Brown P.
104
Good job.
105
That moment is a moment you'll never forget.
106
When you're heavy, you're used to being rejected.
107
by certain groups of people, but then to be rejected by your own kind, it hurts.
108
I'm here with my number one teammate, and we've been through a lot, and I think that with her by my side,
109
I think we can do anything.
110
It takes a lot of pride to stand there and say what you just said.
111
So I think your reward is to pick who you want to train with.
112
Yeah!
113
Kristen, Kathy.
114
Bob or Jillian?
115
Here you go, Bob.
116
I could not be more grateful.
117
That has got to be the best decision my mother has ever made in her entire life.
118
Ladies and gentlemen, you have picked your trainers.
119
It is now time for your first weigh -in.
120
Come on, follow me.
121
Going into the weigh -in?
122
Scary.
123
I want to be showing all of America, and not only that, all of the Tongan community worldwide, how much I weigh.
124
It's embarrassing.
125
Right now, it's time for Bob and Jillian to find out what they're working with.
126
Coming up...
127
Go, Tara!
128
The teams get their first taste of a real
129
Biggest Loser workout.
130
I want some air.
131
I can't stop. And later...
132
Tonight, there will be no elimination.
133
The players get a weigh -in surprise that no one sees coming.
134
What's the catch?
135
What's the catch?
136
Right now, it's time for Bob and Jillian to find out what they're working with.
137
Stella, obviously Jerry is not with us right now, so we're going to have you weigh in by yourself.
138
Having Jerry not beside me, something that I've shared everything for the last 42 years with, was very hard.
139

151

I can't even stand it.
156
Nicole, Damien, your starting weight is...
157
Red Team has a combined total weight of 650 pounds.
158
Nicole, what's going on?
159
I think I've been faking it for so long, like everything's okay.
160
That now that I met the man of my dreams, I don't want to fake my life anymore.
161
The green team starts off with a combined total of 579 pounds.

174
The combined total, 688 pounds.
175
Carla, your starting weight is 379 pounds.
176
379 pounds?
177
These are the kind of numbers that I normally see on the men on this show.
178
And that means that you are officially the heaviest woman we have ever had on The Biggest Loser.
179
We have one team left to weigh in.
180
Dan and Dave.
181
As I'm walking up the steps to weigh in for the first time ever, I was scared because it finally hit me.
182
Everything I've tried to hide for so long is just out there.
183
Dave, Dan, your starting weight is...
184
And I knew what I'd done.
185
I knew what I've eaten.
186
I mean, I knew it would be bad.
187
Dave, Dan, your starting weight is...
188
Dave, your starting weight is 393 pounds.
189
Dan, your starting weight is 454 pounds.
190
You are the heaviest contestant we have ever weighed in at The Biggest Loser.
191
When she told me that I'd be the biggest ever, something clicked.
192
I just knew that I have to make it to the end,
193
that I've got to prove that I can do this and now I know where I'm coming from.
194
Well, gentlemen, I'm sure you don't need me to tell you this, but you have your work cut out for you.
195
Your starting combined total weight is 847 pounds,
196
which makes you officially the heaviest team we have ever weighed in in Biggest Loser history.
197
You got your work cut out for you.
198
We're yours.
199
Well, I have a little secret for you.
200
Jillian loves challenges.
201
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
202
Ha, ha, ha.
203
Good luck, gentlemen.
204
Well, ladies and gentlemen, I suggest you make the most of your time with Bob and Jillian.
205
Then it is time to get to work.
206
Get to it.
207
Yeah!
208
Season 7 is literally the biggest season of Biggest Loser history.
209
This is your first workout at The Biggest Loser, my friends.
210
I have never seen a cast so big.
211
Good.
212
Smiling, aren't you?
213
Deep on the inside.
214
That's right.
215
You're looking real good, baby.
216
I don't think I'm going to get to sleep this season.
217
This is what we're going to do.
218
I'm going to push every single one of you until you quit.
219
And if you want to quit, that's fine.
220
I'm not going to yell.
221
I'm just going to show you the door.
222
It's my way or the door.
223
Seriously, I don't care.
224
You have all the power.
225
Now is the time to unlock it.
226
It is in each and every one of you.
227
It was crazy.
228
I've never lifted a weight in my life.
229
Unlock that power.
230
There you go.
231
Just you and me, Mike.
232
Nobody else.
233
There you are.
234
One more.
235
That's right.
236
Move to the next station.
237
Is that a hitter right now?
238
That's good.
239
Let me explain something to you.
240
When your lips turn blue, then you're gonna pass out.
241
Okay?
242
But you're not gonna die.
243
I've barely even begun the first workout, and Laura starts.. with the theatrics.
244
I can't breathe, no. No good, is this it?
245
Come on Laura.
246
Come on Laura, come on.
247
Step off, step off, step off.
248
Come on, go.
249
Laura?
250
You quitting?
251
I can't breathe.
252
Then get on the treadmill.
253
I can't breathe.
254
Laura was having an extremely difficult time.
255
Get some air.
256
I can't stop.
257
Come on Laura, I'll do it with you.
258
At one point, I got off the treadmill and I was gonna go to Laura and just be like,
259
toughen up Cupcake, you're not the only fat chick in the room.
260
Go Laura, go!
261
Go, go, go!
262
Today's workout... was ridiculous.
263
Please, please what?
264
I mean, have you ever seen anyone else throw up as they're running on the treadmill?
265
Let's go.
266
Six, five, four, three, two...
267
And just keep on going.
268
It's gonna get easier.
269
Jump!
270
It only gets worse.
271
It gets better.
272
No, it gets worse!
273
I hope.
274
I really hope.
275
I want to show you what is going to help keep you in this house.
276
The body bug.
277
Alright, let me go show you.
278
Okay.
279
This is the first week, so my job is to make sure that everyone pulls out the best numbers they can possibly pull out.
280
The body bug keeps track of all the calories
281
that you're bringing in and all the calories that you're burning in the day.
282
How does it work?
283
attach it onto your arm.
284
At the end of the day, you take this thing off, you hook it up into your USB port,
285
and then it downloads all the information onto this
286
Body Bug website.
287
Wow.
288
All you have to do is type in all your food that you're eating.
289
In my experience, the Body Bug calorie management system is one of the best pieces of equipment out there.
290
It's going to show you what you're doing.
291
Bob told us that the 24 -hour fitness
292
Body Bug would read how many calories you were taking in versus how many were burning.
293
To know where I'm at makes you feel more confident about the weighing.
294
Once I got to the hospital, the doctor said when I was working out, my blood pressure dropped, and that's what caused me to pass out.
295
I realized that I'm much worse shaped than I thought I was in,
296
and I want to get going on this thing to get my life turned around.
297
Oh, Jerry!
298
When Jerry walked in, he looked really good.
299
His coloring was great.
300
It was really good to see him.
301
I've got some bad news.
302
What's that?
303
I'm going to be your trainer.
304
Oh, no. Yeah.
305
It's OK, though.
306
It's OK.
307
Don't panic.
308
Worst things I'm sure have happened to you in your life.
309
You know, I'm excited about it, but I'm kind of scared about it.
310
But I saw all my teammates.
311
The whole house was cheering for me.
312
It was wonderful.
313
And, you know, I'm ready to get going.
314
We are walking up this huge bridge in downtown Los Angeles
315
and I have no idea what we are going to be in for.
316
The anticipation is up here, the anxiety is up here, and I'm like, ah!
317
I don't know what to do.
318
Are you guys ready to face your first challenge?
319
Yeah!
320
You are in between two lives.
321
The unhappy, unhealthy life that you used to lead and the happier, healthier life that awaits you.
322
And there is a bridge that is going to get you there.
323
And that bridge is filled with challenges.
324
Oh, that's a hill.
325
You see this big mound of dirt, you know, and this big tractor.
326
This is not just a bridge.
327
This is way worse.
328
To cross this bridge, you are going to have to make it past 250 ,000 pounds of sand.
329
All 11 teams are racing across that bridge, over the sand, to their team -colored flag.
330
Both team members must reach your team colored flag and you have to race all the way back.
331
The top five teams race again.
332
The top two teams from that second race will race a third time.
333
The team that wins tonight's challenge will get immunity at this week's win.
334
You're playing for immunity and the stakes, they just skyrocket.
335
The chance to be here another week, nothing's more important than that.
336
On your mark!
337
This is it, you know, like, Laura's got a whole butt, I got a whole butt, and we need to win.
338
Get set!
339
I have to be here.
340
My sister has to be here longer than just one week.
341
Go!
342
The green team taking off to an early lead.
343
The blue team's right behind them.
344
Dane and Blaine making sure they're in the top three.
345
Pink team on their hands and knees climbing over that sand.
346
Remember, you have to wait for your partner at the team -colored flag before you head back.
347
And the yellow team out in front, early lead.
348
Come on, get my hand.
349
Dan's struggling Jerry.
350
Estella fighting to make it over.
351
They're not giving up.
352
Come on, Dan.
353
Amanda, Aubrey on their way back.
354
Come on, Jerry.
355
Come on, Jerry.
356
Come on.
357
There you go.
358
All right.
359
Sandy, coming in first.
360
You've got the blue team right behind him.
361
Come on up.
362
You got it, sweetie.
363
You got it.
364
Come on.
365
Come on.
366
Aubrey crosses the finish line, a yellow team.
367
They have secured their place in the second heat.
368
Blaine crosses the finish line.
369
He's got Dan right behind him.
370
Come on.
371
Come on.
372
Come on.
373
Remember, only the top five teams will move on to the second heat.
374
Black team has crossed the finish line.
375
Mayor in the second heap.
376
We're coming in fourth.
377
Come on, right behind us.
378
The blue team crosses the finish line.
379
Tara crosses the finish line.
380
Laura's right behind her.
381
That's it.
382
The green team.
383
Look at you.
384
Four teams.
385
And a red team.
386
Nicole's got to get across.
387
Come on, her.
388
Those are our five teams.
389
I want to be here.
390
So if I can win immunity, I want it.
391
And I'm going to go for it.
392
But the caveat, you have to wait for your teammate.
393
And I'm just like, come on, Laura, let's do this.
394
Let's do this.
395
All right, we're going again.
396
Yellow, green, blue, black, and red are all in this.
397
The top two teams will compete one more time.
398
Keep in mind the winner gets immunity at this week's weigh -in.
399
We were beat down, but we knew we had to do it again because we need immunity.
400
Everyone ready?
401
I'm tired.
402
I don't know how I'm going to do a second one.
403
On your mark, get set, go!
404
They're off!
405
Yellow team, green team, everyone in this.
406
Come on, guys!
407
Tara's the first one to reach the sand.
408
Sione's right with her.
409
So is Blaine.
410
Tara and Sione running over that sand.
411
It is not a problem for them.
412
Blaine's right behind them.
413
He's got no trouble making it over the sand.
414
Come on, Laura!
415
Dane's getting over the sand.
416
Red team catching up.
417
They're making it over the sand.
418
They're making it look easy.
419
Come on, Laura!
420
Laura's struggling with the sand.
421
Come on, Laura!
422
Get her.
423
Black team strategy is each man for himself.
424
Blaine's on his way back.
425
You want to stay here?
426
You want to stay here.
427
Come on.
428
Up.
429
Up.
430
Come on, up.
431
Lean on me.
432
Go.
433
Come on, Damien.
434
And Blaine is the first one back over the top of the sand.
435
He walks over like it's nothing.
436
Yellow team right behind him.
437
Top two teams make it to the next seat.
438
Both members of the team have to cross the finish line.
439
It's like these ladies are fighting to win it.
440
Danny makes it across the finish line.
441
Aubrey's right behind her.
442
The yellow team and the black team will run again.
443
I truly believe
444
Laura gave everything that she had.
445
It just wasn't enough.
446
And it sucks that it wasn't enough.
447
Black team, yellow team, you are going again!
448
My legs are like jello.
449
I feel like Gumby.
450
This is for everything!
451
It is yellow versus black.
452
And I'm not going to let those two girls beat us.
453
Hey, Mandy.
454
Try to keep up.
455
Bring it home!
456
Mandy kept telling me all you have to do is be Dane.
457
I'll take care of Blaine, you be Dane.
458
Everything's riding on this race.
459
On your mark, get set, go!
460
Our immunity!
461
Yellow team, black team in the final heat!
462
Come on, let's bring woman power!
463
Blaine, the first one to the sand!
464
Yeah, Blaine, yeah!
465
Blaine off to an early lead.
466
Dane right behind him.
467
Aubrey making it look easy.
468
She's getting over it.
469
She figured it out this time.
470
She is doing it!
471
Woo!
472
You can do it!
473
We got this, dude.
474
You ready?
475
Let's do it.
476
You got it!
477
Laura, she got over.
478
Oh, my God.
479
Come on, Blaine!
480
Blaine is jogging to the finish line.
481
Yeah, Blaine, yeah!
482
Here comes Mandy!
483
Let's go, Mandy!
484
Dave is up to hell!
485
Where is Aubrey?
486
Come on, Dave!
487

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
