With the goal to achieve Total Victory, players compete on favorite obstacle courses from the show to earn the “American Ninja Warrior” title, while show hosts Matt Iseman and Akbar Gbajabiamila provide commentary.

Based on Sasuke from Japan’s Tokyo Broadcasting System Television, the show has no gender boundaries, and has inspired athletes and contestants of all ages. The competitors tackle qualifying and city finals rounds across the country, all in the hope of reaching the four-stage national finals in Las Vegas, which includes the intimidating Mt. Midoriyama. While it is one of the most difficult competition shows on television, American Ninja Warrior is accessible to everyone, regardless of age.
