Entering into its 18th season, now on USA, the format was tweaked for the 2020 audience.called out at the Television Critics Assn. press tour panel for the show Saturday, is that who gets sent home every week is no longer “a popularity contest.
So how did the new version of the show combat concerns that contestants — many of whom admitted they didn’t know much about diet or exercise when walking into production — or trainers, who want to see their team members win, didn’t take things to the extreme?said that each contestant “had to hit a certain amount of calories” every day, and that was monitored. Behind-the-scenes contestants worked with nutritionists to receive individualized meal plans.
