CrossFit star Zack George can’t wait to join the cast of Gladiators, where he will go by the moniker ‘Steel’. The athlete – who has graced the cover of Men’s Health magazine and was named fittest in the UK in 2020 – told his Instagram followers: “What a journey I’ve been on… from being a very overweight and self-conscious kid to a @crossfitgames athlete/ men’s health cover model and now a GLADIATOR.
One of the most exciting and iconic sports entertainment gameshows ever, Gladiators returns to screens in its brand-new home on the BBC. Hosted by father and son duo Bradley and Barney Walsh, the show will see a new generation of superhuman Gladiators competing against a brave set of contenders in the ultimate test of speed and strength. They will take part in a series of brand-new games alongside classic challenges including fan-favourite The Eliminator.
