Always fancied how those athletic contestants on “Ninja Warrior” jump, run, swing and balance in the insane obstacle course? 

In the new reality show, AXN’s physics-defying obstacle course competition, American Ninja Warrior, hits a whole new level with Team Ninja Warrior, where for the first time ever, the mother of all obstacle courses is now built for two. Teams will compete head-to-head against each other, running the course simultaneously, thus creating a new live dynamic.

We hear from three professional coaches, who share some tips on staying fit and how to train like a Ninja Warrior! Even if you don’t intend to go full-fledged hardcore with the regime, it will still be a good read on how to shed those calories from your last holiday.
