Sister Wives star Kody Brown used his time on Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test to share some of his wisdom on how men compare to women.
In Us Weekly‘s exclusive clip from the Thursday, September 25, episode of the hit Fox series, Kody opens up about his strategy for making it as far as possible in the competition.
“I am going to say this at the risk of sounding sexist,” he says in a confessional. “I think men want to be respected and women want to be loved. I don’t care if you love me, but I care if you respect me.”
Kody, 56, is one of many reality TV stars making up the season 4 cast of Special Forces. The competition also features Jussie Smollett, Brittany Cartwright, Eric Decker, Jessie James Decker, Johnny Manziel, Chanel Iman, Nick Young, Ravi Patel, Brianna LaPaglia, Andrew East, Shawn Johnson East, Randall Cobb and Teresa Giudice.
Special Forces, which premiered in 2023, puts contestants through harsh, military-style training based on actual Special Forces selection processes. They face intense physical and mental challenges designed to push their limits.
Before the premiere, Kody exclusively opened up to Us about some of the battles he personally faced while competing.

“There was one time when my muscles gave out,” he said earlier this month. “We were supposed to be swinging across monkey bars, and I had sand on my hands, and I couldn’t cup the monkey bars. I just didn’t have the strength anymore to do it.”
Kody recalled the Directing Staff (DS) instructors trying to haze the recruits.
More than a dozen new recruits are trying their hand at Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 4. Season 4 of the series returns to Fox on September 25, featuring reality TV alums including The Real Housewives of New Jersey’s Teresa Giudice and her daughter Gia Giudice, The Valley’s Brittany Cartwright and Sister Wives’ Kody […]
“I don’t even know what they call the punishment,” he shared. “We’re standing and I’ve been in this water, and I started to shiver. I don’t want the DS [to see] that. I don’t want them seeing any signs of weakness because they’ll play on that.”
According to Kody, he leaned into a fake wheeze to make it seem like he was hitting his limit.
“When we had been just run ragged, [I was] wheezing, and it was a little bit fake,” he told Us. “I figured if they thought I was really working hard, they wouldn’t try to push me more, and I might need some energy for later. So, I’m sitting there doing press-ups, and I’m, like, wheezing.”
Kody added: “I knew that my limits physically were never reached. I had more to give physically.”
Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test season 4 premieres on Fox Thursday, September 25, at 9 p.m. ET.
