They are both very interesting and captivating competition shows. Although Culinary Masters is about cooking and Physical 100 is about exercising, they are both chasing the #1 person in their respective artistries, and to me, they both had very interesting missions, and had a refreshing viewing experience.
Crush Over is basically the same format as Physical: 100.
Here 47 Contestants build teams to battle it out over a total of 7 rounds.
It is probably a lot fairer than Physical: 100, if you look at how exactly the games were designed and judged.
Both shows are really fun, but Crush Over surprised me, because it was on no radar and it wasn't a cheap set or production.
The stages for competition and the housing is actually quite big.

Both:
- participants compete in games that will tests physical fitness and also strategies to win the missions
Differences
- In soldiers the cast are just male soldiers. In physical, we got female participants as well. And it is not only limited to soldiers, the show got athletes, body builders and other people who think they have the ‘physical shape’ compete to win the cash prize.
- Physical is an individual competition. Meanwhile, Soldiers is more of a group competition, although it also had missions that were individualistic too.

Physical: Asia is a new season after the 2 of physical 100.
Whether it’s individual glory (Physical: 100) or national pride (Physical: Asia), both shows tap into deep emotional motivation with great challenges: creative, intense, and often inspired by real-world sports or military training.
Physical: 100 = From Olympic medalists to bodybuilders and soldiers, the cast is as diverse as it is intense.
Physical: Asia = Instead of 100 solo competitors, this season brings together elite athletes and well known champions from across the continent to compete as national teams. That means more strategy, more teamwork, and way more pride on the line. You’re not just watching individuals battle it out, you’re watching countries go head-to-head. What’s really cool is how they mix modern fitness with traditional sports from each culture.
A must-watch for fans of competitive reality TV who want more than just muscle: it’s about spirit, culture, heritage and individual or collective triumph.
