This article contains spoilers for the Physical: 100 season 2 finale, which is now streaming on Netflix.
It seems that CrossFitters might just have the edge when it comes to Physical: 100, as the winner of Physical: 100 season 2 also came from that particular discipline. After another batch of grueling trials, the winner was... CrossFitter and bodybuilder, Amotti!
He was crowned the winner after competing against Physical: 100 season 1 veteran, Hong Beom-seok. The pair competed in a final test of strength; the two final stars were pushing at opposite ends of a revolving bar at the same time. It was a best-of-three match-up, and whoever pushed the bar far enough to knock a pillar over in the arena won.
It was a hard-fought battle; the pair looked to be at a standstill at the outset of the first round, and Hong Beom-seok even managed to get that first bout under his belt. But on Round 2, Amotti managed to find the perfect moment to push the bar all the way when it was lower to the ground on his side, making a huge push around to the other side. And when Hong Beom-seok lost his footing in the final round, Amotti was able to claim the crown.
After the competition, the two finalists stood side-by-side with their torso statues. We heard a moving speech from Hong Beom-seok, and then Amotti was given the chance to share a few words.
"After I decided to participate in Physical: 100", Amotti said, "my daily goal was to work hard in every moment and leave no regrets. My determination to work hard and not give up is what led me to achieve this great result. To the other 99 contestants who joined me on this journey, thank you very much."
After a brief montage showing some of Amotti's triumphs across the final challenge (and a final comment from the winner telling us that he'd 'made a lot of good memories' taking part in the show), the voice of the gamemaster rang out again:
"Various physiques exist in this world. And we gather here at Physical: 100 to find the most perfect physique. Our search for the perfect physique will continue." And with that tease and the stylized trailer for Physical: 100 Asia just before the credits rolled, it looks like we'll be seeing plenty more from the hit challenge show before long.
