Task notes

Next to the mat, there is a variety of exercise equipment, including an exercise ball and yoga mat, a water bottle, ankle weights, boxing gloves, hand weights, and an exercise step.
All of the contestants arrive in the room wearing wrist and forehead sweatbands, with each contestant having their own unique colour of these accessories.
Although the way that this task is set up so that the contestants’ attempts can be edited together in a loop may have been inspired by Taskmaster NZ’s ‘The Presidential blockbuster’ task, it is otherwise different enough that it is categorised as original here.
