Generation Iron - Pumping Iron film remake - will they deny the steroids & drugs?

[jcmbbfuture]

Def won't be like pumping iron but that isn't what they are going for. They are going for the whole human interest feel. It seems to me that it will be more like one of those "day in the life of" videos. I think it will help to bring a real human perspective to pro bodybuilders and their day to day lives. U will get to see these guys and how they think, live, and act. It will be cool to see the interactions and feelings each person has with their competition in comparison with the tight knit group of guys from the 70s-80s. I really dont think gear will be mentioned much at all. It looks to be put together well and I am excited to see it.

The premier of this film is September 20, 2013. I can't wait!<p> It's almost here! The film, <a href="http://bodybuilding.elitefitness.com/generation-iron/" target="_blank"><em>Generation Iron</em></a>, premiering September 20, 2013, follows the personal life of the current top-7 pro bodybuilders. The film is pretty much a sequel to the 1977 film <em>Pumping Iron</em> which told the story of the most famous rivalry in bodybuilding competition history. The rivalry was between Arnold Schwarzeneggar and Lou Ferrigno. The rivalry between the reigning Mr. Olympia, Phil Heath, and the first runner up at the 2012 Olympia, Kai Green, is the focus of <a href="http://bodybuilding.elitefitness.com/generation-iron/" target="_blank"><em>Generation Iron</em></a>– much like <em>Pumping Iron</em> focused on the rivalry between Schwarzeneggar and Ferrigno. I was fortunate enough to attend the 2012 Olympia and even more fortunate to have had Kai Greene as my personal trainer in the 1990s. So although Heath looked phenomenal, I was a little sad that Greene lost to Heath by only 1 vote – making the 2012 Olympia the closest one in history. </p><p>While the film is certain to be great entertainment, I wonder if the truth about the extensive anabolic steroid and other drug use that these pro bodybuilders go through will be highlighted, merely mentioned, or most likely, will it be ignored completely? Here's a link to read more about the new <a href="http://bodybuilding.elitefitness.com/generation-iron/" target="_blank">film Generation Iron and anabolic steroid use in the Mr. Olympia and in pro bodybuilding</a>.</p><p align="center"><a href="http://www.elitefitness.com/forum/anabolic-steroids/generation-iron-pumping-iron-film-remake-will-they-deny-steroids-drugs-998013.html" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.elitefitness.com/images/generation-iron-movie/generation-iron-film.jpg" width="400" height="602" alt="<em>Generation Iron</em> remake of <em>Pumping Iron</em> film" /></a></p>

It will be like what Jay Cutler said in "Bigger, Stronger, Faster." People know that steroids are in the sport of bodybuilding.. and to get to the top you do whatever you got to do to win.

I don't think anyone is going to be releasing their contest prep drug protocol and all that. We have Bostin Loyd for that.

actually according to this trailer, they're not denying steroids at all. Ben Pak-Man is seen quickly talking about it saying that "people have a misconception that if I take steroids I can do what they do" he responds by saying "no you cant! you cant do what I do"

Im waiting to watch this movie b cuz i watch all bodybuilding movies. It will be interesting to see how the sport has evolved since the time pumping iron came out. I read a review and someone commented and said that back then all the bodybuilders were a community and worked out together even tho they were competitors but now everyone is fragmented and isolated. The good thing is that the sport has become worldwide and so diverse. I dont believe they will devote a single minute to any aas discussion. They are illegal and taboo and thats all we need is some election year politician trying to make a name for themselves trying to demonize the sport and say the movie is glamourizing the use of illegal drugs. Im sure the movie is probly sponsored by supplement companies so you know they gonna try to make it appear that their supps are the reason they are so jacked....but as always i will watch with a discerning eye and dissect the fiction and hype from the truth and valuable info...hopefully lol

Pumping Iron was inspiring.. they showed guys lifting, eating, motivating.. Arnold even went to prison to talk to guys in there and they were intimidated etc.

i hope this movie doesn't send the wrong impression to all the young kids out there that you just need to inject some steroids and you are g2g because if you watch youtube thats what it looks like to me

Better that then getting them starry eyed about AAS. Theres enough idiots out there fucking up everything for us as it is.

Steroids are already illegal, cant really fuck it up more for us than it already is. I say keep it all illegal, bros like us will always "get ours" with no problem. Leaves more for us and less for the dumbasses who get starry eyed.
