What does it actually feel like to use performance-enhancing drugs? Not the results everyone sees on the outside - the real stuff. The rage in the car on the way to the gym. The panic attack at midnight, The thought about ripping open a training partner’s rib cage. Dr. Mike Israetel has a PhD in sport physiology, co-founded fitness company RP Strength, and is one of the most candid voices on the internet about performance enhancement. He pulls back the curtain on what these drugs actually do to your body, your mind, and your relationships. And he makes a surprising prediction that anabolic steroids could become obsolete within a decade.

SuperHuman is a high-stakes, edge-of-your-seat docuseries that dives into the launch of what many have called the “Doping Olympics” - the Enhanced Games - a controversial new sporting event where performance-enhanced athletes openly compete for a $1 million prize and attempt to push the human body beyond its natural limits. 

While the International Olympic Committee condemns it, broadcasters salivate over potential ratings, and critics decry it as grotesque even as they admit they’ll tune in. 

The Games ignite urgent questions about ethics, medicine, and the human body itself. From retired Olympians hoping for a comeback, to struggling athletes chasing financial security, to Silicon Valley billionaires and scientists pushing the boundaries of enhancement, this series pulls viewers inside the drama, danger, and allure of sport without a safety net.

For the past year, we've embedded with the games and the athletes to answer the high stakes question. What happens when enhancement becomes the norm? Is this the end of fair play or the beginning of a new frontier of human potential? Step inside the experiment with us.
