The series is executive produced by Nick Rigg (The Flip Off, Americans Big Deal, Tiny House Nation), Fred Pichel (Top Chef, Undercover Boss, The Amazing Race) who also serves as showrunner, iFIT’s Michael Hamblin, and Eli Holzman and Aaron Saidman on behalf of Sony Pictures Television – Nonfiction (SPTNF).

Trainer Games brings together the grit of competition television and the spirit of fitness transformation in a high-stakes format that tests both physical endurance and mental strength.

Hosted by Emmy-nominated TV host, actress and celebrity fitness entrepreneur Amanda Kloots (The Talk, Blue Bloods), Trainer Games chronicles ten elite competitors – Chari Hawkins, Chris Griffiths, Dan Holguin, Darryl Williams, Divinity Gaines, Heather Gollnick, Nick Ullman, Nikki Keys, Kori Sampson, and Yanessa Navarro – as they fight their way through treacherous challenges set against stunning backdrops of Mauritius, an island in the Indian Ocean known for its adventure landscapes.

“Trainer Games embodies everything iFIT stands for - elite coaching, real transformation, and unforgettable experiences,” said Jeremy McCarty, Chief Subscription & Content Officer at iFIT and Trainer Games Executive Producer. “It’s engaging from the very first challenges with athletes battling through unpredictable challenges, surprise twists with the pressure of competing for the most sought-after job in fitness: becoming an iFIT Trainer.”

“Trainer Games is an extraordinary athletic endeavor and, alongside iFIT, we��ve built a series that merges elevated competition with authentic transformation. We can’t wait for audiences to witness these remarkable athletes on this journey,” said executive producer Nick Rigg of Brass Monkeys Media.

Each episode pushes contestants through extreme physical tests measuring strength, agility, stamina, and determination. Mentorship throughout the competition comes from an elite roster of iFIT trainers, including Hannah Eden, Ashley Paulson, and John Peel, who lend their expertise, motivation, and real-world experience to guide contestants through the most demanding workouts of their lives.

At the end of the season, one contestant will emerge victorious, earning the title of Trainer Games Champion, a $250,000 contract, and a place among iFIT’s elite global trainer team.
