Jordan Wiseley is throwing some major shade at The Challenge producers, just weeks before the premiere of The Challenge 40: Battle of the Eras, on which he is competing as part of Era 3.
The four-time ‘Challenge’ champ took to social media over the weekend to vent about how he is feeling post-‘Challenge’ house, calling the setting “one of the worst environments to be in.”
“ … I’m not exaggerating,” Jordan wrote on Instagram. “This one was by far the worst treatment we’ve ever received as a cast and it’s taken a toll (more on that later.)”
Some of Jordan’s Season 40 cast members seemed to agree that the “Battle of the Eras” season came with harsh conditions for its cast.
“I didn’t even get a pair of shoes that fitted for the whole time!” wrote Theo Campbell, who added that he lost 23 pounds while filming for the season.
“Worst!” wrote Maddie Lynn Breaux.
Jordan’s update was accompanied by a video, in which he detailed what allegedly goes on in ‘The Challenge’ houses during filming.
“Most people think that we come into a ‘Challenge’ house and we just work out all the time and turn into savages,” Jordan said in the video. “No, the entire time you’re in there, you are losing shape. We are treated like s**t, we sleep like s**t, we are fed like s**t, our schedules are dog s**t, 20-hour days like nothing.

“So we just lose shape,” he continued. “Doesn’t matter how long you’re there. Doesn’t matter– two weeks, you are going to come out depressed, looking like s**t.”
Jordan went on to say that he fell victim to this cycle following the recent season of ‘The Challenge,’ vowing that it was now time to get back in shape, as the premiere of Season 40 is approaching.
“‘The Challenge’ starts in less than a month so we need to be in shape,” he said. “So when you’re sitting there looking at your TV going, ‘I could do that,’ you’ll know you can.”
Jordan proceeded to tell fans that he would begin posting every evening about what he was planning to do the following morning to get back “in shape” and encouraged people to follow along in order to hold each other accountable.
Jordan’s message was met with some supportive comments from fans of ‘The Challenge,’ as well as some stars from the franchise, including Leroy Garrett, who shared that he was experiencing the same post-‘Challenge’ struggles as Jordan.
“🙋🏽♂️ my diet has been 🗑️.. help me too,” Leroy– who is competing alongside Jordan as part of Era 3 on ‘Battle of the Eras’– wrote.
“WE DECAY,” added Laurel Stucky of Era 2.
Earlier this month, Jordan posted photos from a workout on social media, hinting in the caption that he was working through something physically.
“Finally starting to feel like a human again,” he wrote. “Getting sun and some sweat this holiday week!”

Did I miss something? Are they being forced to compete? Locked in the house?
I mean, it’s called “The Challenge” for a reason. If you don’t like it stay home.
Stop doing them. If conditions are that harsh negotiate your contract or stop doing them.
