Airdate: Michael Mosley’s 21 Day Body Challenge

Dr Michael Mosley never seems to run out of ideas for TV experiments, this time with Michael Mosley’s 21 Day Body Challenge on SBS.

This is a 3 part special which screened in the UK in May. Ugh after lockdowns, we’re all supposed to watch this one…

Three weeks to change your body – and your life. Leading health and diet guru Dr Michael Mosley sets out to help five people who have recently got out of shape – both physically and mentally – because of either lifestyle changes or being sedentary during lockdown.

Michael is looking to overhaul and restore their fitness levels with a healthy, low calorie, intermittent fasting diet combined with an easy exercise regime featuring HIIT – High Intensity Interval Training. Before getting started, the volunteers undertake medical tests to check for signs of premature ageing.

After 21 days of being monitored on the regime, the volunteers should have lost weight, feel better and have greatly improved their aerobic fitness levels. In addition, they may have reversed any premature ageing – a tried and tested format packed with great viewer take-out: simple, sensible, and effective diet and exercise advice that can really improve people’s lives in just three weeks.
