Ronnie Coleman: The Unbelievable

stevehnsn · Jul 11, 2002

Has anyone seen this video? To sum it up, we follow Ronnie around for a week, 5 days out from the Olympia. He goes to work, he lifts, he eats and eats and eats. Ronnie's physique is freakin crazy, but he freaks me out too. He's got some weird habits, and I didn't figure his voice would sound like that. It really doesn't seem like he trains that hard either. I was impressed by his set of deadlifts, but that's all that really impressed me. Shit I hope I don't incur the wrath of the house for my lack of praise for Ronnie. He's still a mutant!

Anyone seen Blood & Guts? I've been trying to download it with Kazaa for about a month, but it never goes through.

Not sure what video you watch but i found Ronnie was training harder and heavier than anyone i have seen. I feel it's reason he wins it works harder in gym.

Funny, I posted the original thread and later in the day Blood & Guts finally downloaded. I think Dorian's training is far more inspiring than Ronnie's. Maybe it's the difference in style. I guess I can relate to the way Dorain trains, better. Of course I never said Ronnie was a slacker.

Dorian's blood ad guts was done during dorian's off season.

How often do you see a pro to train as hard as RC precontest????
I was very impressed with RC's 2nd video.

Precontest training is much less explosive than off season training. Ronnie was 1 week out from the show which means he was cut to the bone and weak as a mule. (Well, in relative terms that is) If you saw him train in the off season, you would think differently of him!! Trust me!!

Oops, my bad, I meant 5 WEEKS out fromthe Olympia. I hear what you guys are saying though, about pre-contest training. If there's a second video, I'll have to check that one out too.
