When he’s not proving his strength at competitions around the world (he just won the 2015 Arnold Strongman Classic in Australia and in the USA), he’s either filming weightlifting/benching videos or he’s on TV. On Extreme Weight Loss Shaw’s going to try his best to inspire Panda, a 27-year-old counselor, to strengthen his body and mind. Extreme Weight Loss airs Tuesdays at 9pm on ABC.
