I've decided to order some bodybuilding movies & possibly some power lifting movies as well. Looking for some ideas. I am kind of old school & like a physical copy, but I will try to just watch it online, if I can't find a decent price on them.

I have seen Pumping Iron & Generation Iron 1 & 2. Seen a couple powerlifting/strongman ones on Netflix as well, but that is about it

Was reading reviews on Ronnie Coleman: Unbelievable. Guess that's supposed to be a good one. Haven't talked to anyone that's watched it though

Try watching Pain and Gain, it's a true story about a Gym Owner by the name of Danny Lupo of the Sun Gym in Miami. It stars Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie.

A good movie about body building are the 1997 film Stand Tall which documents the career of the great Lou Ferrigno who at his prime left his career in bodybuilding to be an actor and his comeback to bodybuilding after 20 years.

There's also an old 1977 film titled Stay Hungry starring Jeff Bridges and Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I watched that one. It was ok. Wasn't a big fan, but it makes it a little more interesting that it was true.

I want to watch both of those & eventually intend on doing that. I can't remember if I've seen Stay Hungry... I will let ya know when I check it out. Thanks for the ideas.
