Any one know of a good bodybuilding movie? I have seen bigger faster stronger and I was very interested, if anyone can suggest an interesting one would be awesome thanks! I don't like asking for things like this in teen section because its full of idiots.

**RunnerandLifter** · 03-19-2011, 10:46 AM

**socket** · 03-19-2011, 11:00 AM

Bigger faster stronger was pretty good. I heard there is or supposed to be a sequal.....I think two of the brothers are dead now

Pumping Iron is classic. If you haven't seen it, check it out. It's totaly "Old School", but still relevent today

agree with the others...Pumping Iron. Had the opportunity to watch it just recently, and it is very inspiring.

cmbg didn't know if you knew or not but there is also "Pumping Iron II The Women". It is also pretty old school 1983-84ish if i remember right.

**Old_swole** · 03-20-2011, 06:43 AM

OP, if you want to just watch a BB movie you might enjoy Pumping Iron. But if you are looking for a little more modern inspirational stuff there is lots of that on youtube. Personally I like the big Ronnie vids ah but then again there is Branch but lets not forget.......

**RunnerandLifter** · 03-20-2011, 10:03 AM

I watched pumping iron yesterday i found it online but i repped Chodan9 for posting it anyways appreciated much i thought it was a good movie

**ironwill2008** · 03-20-2011, 11:03 AM

Maybe 5-8 years ago, I recall reading in one of the mags about a movie documenting the training of (IIRC) Boyer Coe, and (possibly) Lou Ferrigno, as they were prepping to compete in the then-contested Masters' Olympia (which has since been discontinued). I think it went directly to VHS/DVD, but my memory fails me concerning a title, or any other details.

Can anyone fill in any of the blanks?

**Nikonguy** · 03-20-2011, 12:32 PM

Check out the work of Mike Pulcinella.

**schmack** · 03-20-2011, 01:18 PM

watching Bigger, stronger faster for the first time now and it's very entertaining. thanks OP

"The Bodybuilder and I"

http://www.myfit.ca/archives/viewana...I+Movie+Review

I enjoyed it very much, watched multiple times, and atypical. Blockbuster carries it.

**IronCharles** · 03-31-2011, 08:01 PM

Not mentioned yet:

A cool documentary about a blind man being trained for his first competition:

And a discussion about a similar type of documentary called, "I Want To Look Like That Guy":

http://forum.bodybuilding.com/showth...hp?t=122457461

And a pretty cool and odd short story about a bodybuilder named "Dennis"

**plmb1** · 03-31-2011, 09:35 PM

OP,

Try watching a movie called "Athena". It's an old movie from 1954. It's not your typical bb.ing movie as you can imagine but if you pay attention you will like it very much.

**RunnerandLifter** · 03-31-2011, 10:28 PM

Here.

Now you're over 100.

Besides, it's not the numbers that matter so much as the gesture. Rep them anyway.
