Exatlon is a reality competition series where two teams of physically fit contestants compete against each other. Following the reality TV format the show has many parts that are planned ahead. The teams are composed of athletes (current, former, Olympic etc.), sports professionals and celebrities on one team and ordinary people with athletic ability, from all walks of life on the other team. All must have strong physical skills and sporting abilities.
Exatlon is a team-oriented competition which moves to an individual mode in its final weeks, culminating in a final round where a male and female are crowned the Exatlon champions. The format finale varies in certain markets where the male and female compete for one of them to be crowned the Exatlon champion.
Exatlon first aired in Brazil on Rede Bandeirantes in 2017 and since then has been a rating success in Colombia, Hungary, Mexico, Romania, Slovenia, Turkey, and the United States, with upcoming editions in Germany and Greece.
