Physical: 100

This show has me on the edge of my seat rooting for the under dogs and/or women each event. The level of strength and agility some of the men have is awesome to watch. It's interesting how the voiceovers sort of match what you would expect the person to really sound like. My one gripe is that they should identify what the person does or is known for - more often. There were several scenes where only the Korean words were put on the screen so I had no idea which person I was watching because of my bad memory. Hopefully they will let us know who each person is better going forward the way they did in the first couple of episodes as the season goes on. I definitely would watch a season 2 of this.

At first I thought it's a tv show but then I found out it's a sport games competition reality show between athletes to find out the best bosy/athlete and it was fun and enjoyable to be fair.

Different games were interduced to test their stamina and strength.

Each competitor is a well known athlete in South Korea from different kind of sports or profession that requires physical fitness Such as military or firemen etc..

Most of the show you will hear them talking during the competitons which is expected in a reality show, and I don't want to spoil anything Just sit and wnjoy watching the show.

I loved the premise and how friendly and respectful most people were with each other. I'm glad there wasn't anyone edited to be a "villain" for drama. I also appreciated how they seemed to want to showcase different strengths and body types, breaking stereotypes about what strength is and looks like.

The challenges were interesting and while I'm glad we were able to see everyone participate and get to know each contestant, the filming of some challenges felt really dragged out. One challenge covered multiple episodes and I was just waiting for it to end.

The final battle was also a disappointment. I was expecting something big that encompassed all types of strength like an obstacle course, something that the contestants could do together. The little games they did instead were very lackluster following all the much more complicated stuff they did previously. And if the rumors are true about the re-filming controversy with the last challenge, that would be even more disappointing.

This show is so entertaining to watch. It's interesting to see how the different body types match up against each other. Seeing how the contestants interact with deference and respect for each other makes it even more enjoyable. There's none of the behind the scenes personality clashes or fake "alliances" that water down so many of these reality shows. It's just pure competition. Also, there's no host and not much in the way of narration. The contestants themselves are the only stars of the show. We learn about each athlete through conversations among the other contestants. It's a very refreshing approach.

There's only one minor flaw that I find somewhat annoying. Whoever is doing the editing feels the need to repeat many of the scenes over and over again...3, 4 and sometimes even 5 times in a row in rapid sequence. I hope this show gets picked up for a second season and they do without this unnecessary and distracting editing technique.

Most American reality shows have competitors chosen for their Instagram following, or people the producers know will be problematic so that conflict will arise. It is refreshing that a show like this focuses on real athletes, where the competitions are truly challenging and as the title says, physical. I also enjoy the dubbed in English voices, maybe not for the right reasons. I just think they are hilarious, and probably not accurate, but entertaining just the same. If you want a fun drinking game, drink every time someone says, "He's/She's so cool!" I have seen some reviews offering opinions on the kindness of the contestants, which I can't really comment on, since I don't speak Korean, but I think this may be a cultural trope. Who knows if they are friendly or not based on dubbed voices? Anyway, I am giving it an 8, simply because it has not concluded yet and I want to see how it finishes. A fun show.
