NEW YORK—Fitness trainer and host of NBC’s Biggest Loser Bob Harper says he is recovering from a serious heart attack that left him unconscious for two days.
Harper tells TMZ he was working out in a gym in New York City this month when he collapsed. He says a doctor who also was in the gym performed CPR on him.
The 51-year-old Harper says he spent eight days in a New York hospital and has not yet been cleared to fly home to Los Angeles.
Harper has been a fixture on all 17 seasons of The Biggest Loser. He served as a trainer on the show from 2004 to 2015. He took over as host of the reality weight loss program last year.
