1. FACING GOLIATH
2. AFGHAN MUSCLES
The young men of
Afghanistan have discovered the art of bodybuilding. In a country ravaged by
war, these men still hold on to their dreams; dreams of muscle, honour and fame
- absolute control of the body in a world of chaos. From the dusty ruins of
Kabul to the skyline of Dubai we follow the bodybuilder Hamid's heroic struggle
to gather food and proteins, hoping to win the championship and thereby create
a better life for himself and his clan. But nothing goes as planned; Welcome to
"Afghan Muscles" - a different and groundbreaking portrait of
Afghanistan after 9/11
3. BIGGER STRONGER FASTER
The documentary examines
the steroid use of the director Christopher Bell and his two brothers who all
grew up idolizing Arnold Schwarzenegger, Hulk Hogan, and Sylvester Stallone,
and also features professional athletes, medical experts, fitness center
members, and US Congressman talking about the issue of anabolic steroids. Beyond the basic issue of
anabolic steroid use, Bigger, Stronger, Faster* examines the lack of
consistency in how America views drugs, cheating, and the lengths people go to
achieve success. This includes looking
beyond the steroid issue to such topics as Tiger Woods laser eye correction to
20/15 vision, professional musicians use of anxiety reducing drugs, or
athletes' dependence on cortisone shots, which are a legal steroid. The film also takes a
skeptical examination on claims to the health risks of steroids and is highly
critical of the legal health supplement industry.
4. EVOLUTION OF BODYBUILDING
Hear it straight from the
Legends themselves with their stories of success and heartbreak. EVOLUTION OF
BODYBUILDING offers a unique and closeup look at what it takes to compete in
the "Mr. Olympia", and how the industry has changed over the past 50
years.
Shawn Ray conducted all of
the interviews in which most of the past winners of the Mr. Olympia title tell
us the story and their views on what happened at the time. These are the guys who
actually lived the Olympia history!
This DVD takes you on a
magic journey from Larry Scott explaining the origin of the Mr. Olympia title,
through many of the past winners such as Frank Zane to Lee Haney, Dorian Yates,
Ronnie Coleman and Jay Cutler to the current Mr. Olympia Phil Heath.
5. NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC: THE SCIENCE OF STEROIDS
It is one of the most
controversial issues of our day, jeopardizing the health and smearing the
reputations of Olympians, professional sports players and even high school
athletes. The government has declared them illegal without a prescription,
athletes call them unfair, and some doctors say they are potentially deadly.
What are the real dangers of these drugs? We've seen what's happening outside
the body; now NGC reveals what's happening inside the body, in the Science of
Steroids.

Pumping Iron II: The Women (1985) is a documentary film
about female bodybuilding, focusing on several women as they prepare for and
compete in the 1983 Caesars World Cup.
Pumping Iron II was made as a follow-up to the
groundbreaking 1977 film Pumping Iron. The Caesars World Cup was a contest
created specifically for the film. The competitors were a mix of professional
and amateur bodybuilders, which was actually a violation of IFBB rules. Charles
Gaines, one of the writers of the film, was included on the contest's judging
panel. He was interviewed for the movie but not identified, and had never
previously seen a female bodybuilding contest.
