TV show description:
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.
As the contestants strive to dominate the courses and the competition, they see flab turn to muscle, doubt turn to confidence, and weakness turn to strength.
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.
Episode #10 – The Final Showdown
The two remaining teams are pushed to their absolute limits in three punishing legs of the Strong finals. Every ounce of mental fortitude and acquired strength is on display as they fight tooth and nail for the right to take home their prize money and be crowned the winner of “Strong.”
First aired: June 2, 2016
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?
I don’t care what you have to do. Bring back STRONG. reverse the role if you have to. Have female coaches and male trainees. I’ll gladly volunteer if need be!! I’m way out of shape.
This show was a huge inspiration for me and my family. Even my small children were inspired and motivated to eat healthy and for the family to have workouts throughout the week. Please bring it back so more individuals can be touched !!!
I wish they would bring this show back
I just finished watching the first season on Netflix. This show is awesome. Gets me motivated in my own workout. Please bring it back.
LOVE THIS SHOW so motivating bring it back!
Please bring this show back! My partner and I are athletes and LOVED the idea of a show that was geared toward strength and health, versus thinness and drama! BRING IT BACK! 🙁 I would love to see the roles reversed as well… with men being trained by highly accomplished female trainers.
I would nominate my sister and brother for either version. PLEASE!!!!
I LIKE THIS SHOW AND I FEEL THEY NEED TO BRING IT BACK. MAYBE TRY HAVING THE ROLES SWITCHED AS WELL, IF THEY DID I WOULD SIGN UP FOR IT FOR SURE.
I loved Strong it was an amazing show and I can’t wait for more
This was an amazing show! I’m so mad and sad there was only one season. I’d watch this forever and ever. Give us more please!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE bring back Stong!! This was the first realistic weight loss show. I was so excited when I saw a show geared toward health and strength rather than beauty and drama. I binge watched the entire series in two nights; it was difficult to shut off. I am so disappointed this show was canceled. BRING BACK STRING, BRING BACK STRONG!!
Loved this show
Please renew this show
Definitely renew, inspired my 11 year old daughter and great family viewing and talk ability. Come on Stallone, bring it back!
It should be renewed
Loved the show- definitely saw the subway/fit bit plugs, not that it matters… gotta pay the bills right?
I wish there was another season but get a host with some personality. Don’t get me wrong, I love and respect GR- always admired her career but dang girl…. Yawn.
Agree. She seemed pretty cold most of the time… not really encouraging at all. Which I think would make more sense for this type of show!
