A year gives them a chance to actually condition themselves. Anybody can achieve that transformation or something close with dedication. A month though, and even the best training in the world isn’t going to make up the difference between a randomly selected athletic and nonathletic person.
I’d be a bit more interesting if they only got a month or two to train - if it’s a year then they ought to get pretty good (too good)
And it’s an enormous elimination game.
Henderson qualified in pistol shooting, but he seems uneasy facing the javelin.
If you don’t give them enough time to train then this wouldn’t be as interesting as you think it’d just be a lot of injuries

But the point is that it is your average joe that hasn’t trained to see how the average person would fare.
The average Joe can go try random sports today. You can even watch people try new things for the first time.
The point is to inspire people by showing what dedication and support can do to elevate Average Joe.
