    “Dancing with the Stars” has sadly seen several spills and injuries this season — Brooke Burke’s foot contusion, Jeffrey Ross’ scratched cornea, Misty May-Treanor’s torn Achilles tendon that forced her out of the competition.

    On Monday night, contestant Lance Bass fell while dancing a swing, but quickly regained his footing with partner Lacey Schwimmer’s help.

    “It’s so crazy this season,” Bass told us. “We definitely stretch out before every rehearsal and performance and overall just watch my health and what I eat. And I’m in the gym.”

    Bass, 29, said ’NSync routines were a breeze compared to those on “Dancing,” and he plans to keep exercising after he leaves the show.

    “I’m going to have to because I’m going to gain about 100 pounds if I stop for a week,” he said. “It’s part of my life.”

    Somehow we doubt that.
