A total of 80
women, including 20
California
residents, ages 18 to 54, competed in the 10-episode series that airs
on Comcast
SportsNet. The women spent three days
and two nights training with world military boxing champion Omar Akl at
different locations around Eldorado County
in an intense 18-hour
workout. In this weeks episode, Akl
challenges the women in chopping wood, swimming, street fighting and other extreme
challenges to test them physically and
mentally. Karen Barbarick (39) of
Applegate said “it was just what I needed to take me to the next level.”
One competitor
from each of eight
(8) episodes competed in the season finale for a chance to win a
jackpot of up
to $25,000 for herself and her team.
Omar’s
philosophy that you can do
anything as long as you put your mind to it motivated the
12-contestants in the
episode that was shot last June to push them selves further than they
had ever
dreamed possible.
“It really is
all mental, I think
I always knew that, but just not so intensely,” said Wendy Lautner (26)
of Fair Oaks, after completing the
3-day event. Lautner is originally from Traverse City, Michigan
where her parents still live, and her father is featured on the episode
as well.
Still
photos from the episode are
available to members of the media for publication and contestants on
Wednesday nights’
episode are also available to be interviewed.
