This competition series follows contestants as they embark on a transformative journey to find a balance between mind and body as they work to “get strong.” Professional volleyball player and fitness expert Gabrielle Reece hosts the program.
Each looking to improve herself mentally and physically, 10 women from all walks of life work with 10 elite male fitness trainers. The contestants train in pairs and work to conquer a series of challenges that push them to their limits.
In each episode, the two-person teams train together and compete in multiple physical challenges that incorporate a number of formidable obstacles. The challenges put them to the test in the areas of strength, endurance and mental stamina.

Each week one team is eliminated, and at the end of every episode, their transformational journey is shown.
At the end of the season, the winning team takes home up to $500,000.

What do you think? Do you like the Strong TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a second season?
Surprised and disappointed that Strong was cancelled!! Such a motivational show!! So great to have a show that wasn’t all focused on weight loss bu also mental and physical strength & transformation!! Please reconsider!! Bring it back!
My mind can’t grasp why this was cancelled! Extremely motivational and truly inspired me during a low point in my life. I was on the verge of quitting until I binged this season to resurrect the inner Beast to keep fighting and become Strong again!!! PLEASE bring back because this show is completely related to the “everyday woman’s” struggle!
This show wasinspiring! This is the type of motivational and team building type shows our era needs! Please bring back Strong!
WHY WAS THIS SHOW CANCELED?!?!?! I binge watched it in less than a week & it helped motivate me to get back in the gym!!! BRING STRONG BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cant believe this show was cancelled. Very inspiring and motivation. Binged the season in 3 days! Please bring it back.
Just got into this show in November 2018 and watching all episodes. Disappointed that it was cancelled. It’s fun to watch and very motivating.
