A personal trainer from MTVs reality show, I Used to Be Fat, is stepping out of the limelight and onto Western Illinois Universitys Macomb campus.

Joey Gloor will be visiting campus from Tuesday, Oct. 2 through Thursday, Oct. 4, to host a series of events ranging from lunch and dinners in residence halls to interactive lifting sessions, lectures and classes.

I Used to Be Fat is a reality series that follows the journey of overweight teens who are given a personal trainer and strive to meet their fitness goals through diet and exercise.

On I Used to Be Fat, Gloor worked with college-aged clients in order to transform their lives before starting school, said co-coordinator of the eventJessica Mueller, who is organizing the events. She also noted that Western is the first institution to have him on a college-type tour. His goal is to motivate and inform students about the different aspects of a healthy lifestyle including exercise and healthy eating.

There will be something for everyone, on every level of fitness, Mueller added.

Several departments, including Inter-Hall Council, Sodexo, Chi Omega, the University Union Board and the Council on Student Activities have been working with Gloor and his assistants for six months to put theseprograms together.

The committee wanted to coordinate a program that brought in different departments, Mueller said. We think the programs will benefit any type of student.

Gloor is very excited about his visit to Western.

Im thrilled to be at the WIU campus this month, he said. I remember coming down to Macomb to visit friends when I was in college, and we trained at the rec and had a great time.

So, its very cool to be coming back years later to encourage current students and staff to live life at their best through the transformative power of fitness.
