favorite training videos

[flexmaster]

i'm looking to get some new training dvd's. i've got ronnie's cost of redemption...what else is good? i've thought about dorians blood n guts and mike mentzer's HIT dvd. how was ruhl's: made in germany?

i also just borrowed a friend's lee haney vhs tape, i really liked it.

Ronnie's COR rocks! LOL! I loved it. I haven't watched the others cept bloods and guts. It is pure black and white training video(think there was just a lil color at the front and back). No diet, nothing. Its quite raw, simply like its title, 'Blood & Guts'.

VIDS

Ive got the Ronnie, Jay and Markus videos here
and My favorite of the three is the Ruhl` made in Germany.
Ronnies was good also Jays I couldnt hardly stand to watch. ahh it was ok I guess but the other 2 are much better imo.

Ok this may sound strange but you know what a great tape to watch is, is Melvin Anthony's video when was going to the USA. You could just see the drive that guy had to win that show. I mean he was really focused and driven for sure. Its shot over the course of 8 weeks and is a great look into his life at the time.

Jay's is 4 hours and 39min long and I think it was the best one out of the 3 just because he talks alot more in it. Big Ron's is awesome along with markus's. Art's movie was pretty good too. The maryland muscle machine was pretty good movie. But if I had to go with just one I'd go with Jay New, Improved, and beyond.

Blood&Guts !

 

[Trulyhuge]

Blood and Guts is the best bar none! It is very educational in terms of proper mechanics training wise. I like Ruhl's video as well. I just don't care much for Ronnie's videos. Besides his huge ass squat in COR, it was boring to be? He trains sloppy as hell and I have to mute the damn thing b/c I can only hear so many "yeah buddies!" lol

blood&guts thats the best video so far.no more no less hardcore englishmen.i love this video.i have friend who knows Dorian personaly,he helped Dorian to open his suplement line.i tryed them myself,some stuff,its good,maybe just a bit pricy,but i didnt pay for it

 

[flexmaster]

is blood n guts out on dvd? the only thing i didn't like about ronnie's COR was all the boring stuf like eating, watching him do abs for 1/2 an hour...ect.

ruhl's made in germany looks good too, he's such a freak i'd just love to see how people stare at him.LOL is it more training/lifting or just following him around for a few days?

yup,yup, I agree.. I really liked blood and guts.. and I would be crippled if I ever trained like ronnie.. hard to beleive he doesn`t get injured more often.. on the video I have of him he does military press doing what looks like half reps and when he does deads he drops the bar going down and never uses his legs on the way up after the first rep.. can you say "genetics" wow!

the Mentzer's tape is a joke
a very bad joke

 

[Masscycle]

Blood and Guts is very good as are Ronnie's and Markus ruhl's videos. I thought Jay Cutlers was kind of boring although it is over 3 hours long I think.

 

[flexmaster]

the Mentzer's tape is a joke
a very bad joke

yeah, i kind of figured it would be. is there anyone but him in it?

 

[lionel]

Still like COR though. I think i've gotten used to his lifting style in the unbelievable, so this was nothing new. But i just found it overall quite a joy to watch.

I agree that technique in weightlifting wise, there is a lot of information in blood and guts, but none(or little) on the other side of dorian when he's not lifting. If you're interested in a 'pure' training video, this one definitely hangs right up there.

Been hearing good stuff bout Art's video.. tempted to check it out but the price.. you know. Chris Cormier's is out too! Anybody caught it?

i enjoyed ronnie's COR as well, i just cant sit down and watch all 3 hours of it anymore like i used to...i can only watch someone eat the same meals everyday for so long.LOL

from what i'm hearing blood n guts sounds really good. i generally like to see a bunch of heavy ass weight being thrown around.

what do you mean by " there is a lot of information in blood and guts, but none(or little) on the other side of dorian when he's not lifting."?

 

[lionel]

Oops, i meant that the info thats aplenty in blood and guts are those like proper lifting techniques like trulyhuge mentioned, what his HIT routine looks like, the rest periods, machines/exercises he uses etc.. the other side meaning what the real dorian is like behind the scences(when not lifting). There is very lil footage about that as compared to ronnie's.

On a side note, i kinda like ronnie's secret recipe at the end of COR.. LOL!

 

[BigMatt]

Craig titus Version 2.0 is very inspirational also.He look awsome in that video.

 

[Moen]

Dude you read it, get blood&guts !

It's movies like blood&guts that make me believe there's something possible for everyone of us, if we work hard like Dorian did and nobody brings this message across more clearly than Dorian, even if he says like only 5 words in blood&guts !

With Ronnie's video's I felt more like 'jeez why have I bothered doing an exercise correctly ?' It kind of frustrates me to see he can get away with that

Hold Up....

In terms of pure inspiration, nothing will ever beat PUMPING IRON!

I watch that DVD (the 25th anniversary ed.) at least once a month.

Just seeing Arnold on the box cover makes me want to hit up some test and run out to the gym!

i just rented that dvd last week. i thought it was pretty good, but i'm not a huge fan of arnold's physique...all he had was biceps and chest.IMHO
