Rebecca Lynn Cardon is a personal trainer, product spokesperson, and author. Rebecca has appeared on several reality TV shows including “The Amazing Race” and Bravo’s “Work Out.” In 2013 she published the book “Breakups Blow! A Guided Workbook to Help You Break Free.” For the past eight years she has been traveling the world with one high profile client. She recently completed her first novel. Many people recognize Rebecca from the sixth season of "The Amazing Race" or from Bravo's docu-drama, "Work Out," but her interest in physical fitness can be traced back to her early childhood. Her family is made up of several fitness enthusiasts who heavily influenced her passion for physical fitness. At the age of five, Rebecca's father took her to the gym and rewarded her with a candy bar every time she completed a set number of pull-ups. Enamored by the overwhelming sense of accomplishment, Rebecca eventually competed with her father in the world of competitive weightlifting. In her senior year of high school, she appeared with her father on "Good Morning America" as father/daughter world record holders for the bench press. That record is still in place today. After graduating from college, where Rebecca received a B.A. in Broadcast Journalism and Communication from George Mason University, she relocated to Los Angeles and has been a television fitness personality ever since. In 2005, she and her then boyfriend Adam, competed in the Emmy award winning series, “The Amazing Race.” The race consisted of 11 teams racing 40,000 miles across four continents, stopping in 24 different cities, and Rebecca and her boyfriend, both personal trainers, completed the race, placing third. Deemed "the strongest female competitor the race has ever seen" by The Early Show's Harry Smith, Rebecca completed the more difficult tasks for her team along the way, leading them around the world and across the finish line. In 2006, she signed onto the Bravo’s “Work Out.” The series ran for three seasons, following Rebecca's life as a personal trainer at Sky Sport and Spa in Beverly Hills. Flirtatious and uninhibited, Rebecca's actions and interactions with the other members of the Sky Sport staff led to some of the most talked about moments of the series. Currently, Rebecca can be observed as the spokesperson for several fitness products including The Bun and Thigh Track, The Bean, and The Ab Rocket Twister, which is currently airing worldwide and has sold over one million units. She has also anchored and hosted several entertainment shows, including The Daily Pop and the E! Radio Network's Reality This Week, which aired on Sirius and XM satellite radio. In March of 2009, Rebecca appeared on the "Oprah Winfrey Show" and was featured in the April 2009 issue of O Magazine. A few months later, she joined the staff of the immensely popular "Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew" as the group's personal trainer.
