I was wondering about Strydoms latest DVD myself....Matt C seems to know alot about DVD's, hopefully he'll weigh in on the subject.  Titus' video from when he was getting ready for the 96 USA is pretty damn good, I've got a shawn Ray DVD where I think he's getting ready for the 98 Olympia and it's really good, I'm amazed that he comes across so well on that DVD and so bad on this site.  A few of the BFTO's are good...some segments suck.

I was really bored with Cutler's Cut Above The Rest

Not much talking ...not really impressed with his workouts...I was very bored.

Maybe the only time I had any interest was when Chris Aceto was doing his diet but it didnt really explain anything much..

Shawn Ray's videos are the best because he explains about workouts and nutrition

THE ONE I had I thought was pretty good, he talks alot but it's all decent advice, good supplement advice, good training footage....it's the only one of shawn's vids I've ever seen but I thought it was decent.

That's the best video ever.  only if he had some Nutrition info on it.  the new release has some on stage video so that would cover that part.  But to me it is the best and the most motivating training video ever

man BFTO 96 is the real shit...it featured paul dillet,kevin levrone,yates,nasser,fux,wheeler,cormier etc all in awesome condition..kevin levrone looked the  freakiest of them all....i also like BFTO 99 too..

dillet looks un-freakin-believable in that video...to bad he blew his condition that year cause he looked a ton better in the BFTO...legs were some of the best ever for a big tall guy...

The Battle for the Olympias are so much better than most of the solo bodybuilder training vids. Dorian's is good thogh and Ronnie's Cost of Redemption are two of the best though.

the unbeliveable is much better

Ronnie's first video (97) actually ha better content than the unbelievable (2000). However, I only rank the Unbelievable higher due to the rediculous weights ronnie's uses on that video.

Shawn Ray's Inside and Out - Good non-workout video

Pumping Iron II: The Women - Better than the one with the men

Ronnie Coleman's Cost of Redemp and Unbel - It's just good Ole Ron.

I saw Dillett in person in Toronto in 93 or 94, can't recall for sure, but he walked past me and even though he has an enormous upper body, I was most blown away at the size of his legs and calves.   I think his calves are just impressive as Yates or Matarazzo's.   They were big around as a football and ripped to shreds.

Post by: SWOLETRAIN on November 22, 2006, 10:53:23 AM
Jay Cutlers One Step Closer and Ripped to Shreds are both awesome DVDs. Another favorite of mine is Gustavo Badell Common Sense. Gustavo shows hardcore training and then later during an interview expands on his training and nutrition philosophy. Of course Ronnie Colemans Cost of Redemption is a classic. One of the most hardcore DVDs out there. He completely takes all the glamour out of the sport. Shot at Metroflex, Ronnie goes balls to the wall and its insane to see some of the lifts this man can do. BFTO 2004 & 05 are also worth buying, just to see some of the pre contest training. The Branch Warren Johnnie Jackson chest workout in 05 is insane. They don't speak a single word.

I know.... A lot of people here seem to really like it, but my reasoning for not is first, I don't like the way the video is shot in black & white, and second, Dorian's training partner is very annoying with all that screaming and yelling - through the WHOLE video. Sorry....  :-[

Dorian's training partner is VERY annoying in the video. All his does is scream and yell - through the WHOLE thing! Nothing wrong with that, I guess, but 60 minutes of non-stop yelling and screaming like that? Can't really enjoy the video.

Quality Yates, QUUAAALLIITTYYY!!!!!
Cmon Mr Yates, business, business.
Business........AS USUAL!!!!!!!

I think Blood & Guts is one of the top three videos there is. When you watch that and Ronnie's Unbeleivable and see them busting their ass the way they are, it's no wonder they won the Olympias.

The Battle For The O videos are great too but like Flex's Hardbody it's only a few days out and some of the guys are training real light and going "Don't look at me, I'm carb depleted, it will ruin your opinion of me" or words to that effect. The 98 Battle For The O is the best one IMO, Priest & Levrone look freaking mindblowing in that.

i Like Lee´s videos (blond myth 1 and 2) and Levrone´s m3 is very good too (100 dumbell curls, in your face!!!!)

but i have to say that unbelievable is the one that i most watch, because of the poundages being used, and because the entertainament purposes . Ronnie is funny, and he has more catch phrases than any other pro!!!

light weight baby!!! BOOOOOOOOO. Notin but a peanut!

Kevin Levrone's M3 is good but I would've enjoyed it a lot more if there was no music [his band] that constantly played as a soundtrack. I like the natural atmosphere that is heard in a gym when watching these training videos.

Well when Milos comes out with his new video showing all the pros and amatures alike dialing in Earl all over the gym after his gut busting workouts, all other videos will fail in comparison ;D - I think he's gonna call it GUTS-N-VOMIT or something along those lines.
Seriously though Unbelivable the best of all time COR and Blood and Guts were also great.

So what application do you use to get it to play? I get a list and downloaded Blood and Guts and saved it on my dsktop but can't find an application that will open it. As you can tell, I'm not that savvy when it comes to the finer points of playing vids off the net. I downloaded from IE, FireFox  and Opera but nothing seemed to work. Opera is suppose to be able to play BitTorrent files from it's browser but I'm not sure how to do it.
