Who is Steel?

Steel, an accomplished CrossFit athlete, adorned the cover of Men’s Health magazine and was titled the fittest individual in the UK in 2020. His strength allows him to lift an impressive 220 kilograms, which is approximately equal to the weight of 3.5 standard washing machines!

As stated by the CrossFit Games 2024, Steel stands among the elite CrossFit athletes globally, holding a rank of 26th out of a total of 126,461 competitors.

Discussing his motivation for becoming a Gladiator, Zack shared that he was captivated by the original TV series as a kid. He recalled thinking the initial cast resembled “comic book superheroes.

As a movie enthusiast, standing even the slightest chance of resembling those legendary gladiators, not just emulating them, feels more like a long-cherished dream materializing before my eyes, on the brink of making it real on this very show.

It’s wonderful to get a chance to give back, in some small way, to the younger audience and viewers, by reciprocating the positive impact that the original series had on me.
