Here's the third video (of a projected six) I've put together from the Association of Oldetime Barbell & Strongmen (AOBS) dinner on October 5, 2013. If you enjoy classical bodybuilding posing from a lifetime natural athlete, this is a compilation of Russ Testo's three outstanding posing routines that night. I wish all bodybulding routines were as entertaining!

Here's the second video from the 2013 Association of Oldetime Barbell & Strongmen (AOBS) reunion dinner on October 5, 2013, presenting the speech by guest of honor Mike Katz (with introduction by Fred Yale). Note that the video contains Mr. Katz's entire speech (and Mr. Yale's entire introduction), so it's kind of lengthy (over 22 minutes). But for people interested in Mr. Katz, I think it's definitely worthwhile (if I do say so myself): After falling off the face of the planet for several months shortly after videoing the Association of Oldetime Barbell & Strongmen (AOBS) dinner on October 5, 2013 (when day-job responsibilities surged), I'm finally finishing up a couple of videos of the event. First up: "Frank's Reunion." Here's the official description: A short video about Frank Spellman, gold medalist in men's middleweight weightlifting at the 1948 London Olympics, who had a surprise reunion at the 2013 Association of Oldetime Barbell & Strongmen (AOBS) dinner on October 5, 2013. And here's the video: (It can also be viewed on YouTube here.)
Thanks for watching! More videos of the AOBS event, among others that are in my backlog, will (with luck) be forthcoming very shortly. Here's a short video primer to warn women what they may be getting into when they agree to marry a bodybuilder . . . . This was taped at the Montanari Brothers 2013 NPC Connecticut State Championships on June 22, 2013. Thanks to the brothers for having me there. And special thanks to Dustin Gartner (who I'd never met before) for giving me permission to make this video! Finally, I urge everyone to go and watch this video in the large player over on the Vimeo page, so you can read the text more easily . . . but for those who want, you can also watch right here: As always, thanks for watching! And I value any thoughts you may have ...
I've begun work on a mini-documentary about Carlos, a fifty year old bodybuilder who competed in several contests in the early- to mid-2000s, but hasn't been onstage in over five years. But now he's getting ready for a comeback at the 2013 NPC East Coast Cup in New Haven, CT on October 19, 2013. We've only started filming together, but I'm excited enough to have put together this little project promo (larger viewer on Vimeo): Carlos is a great guy, and I'm really looking forward to this project. Stay tuned!
Here's a video of Guy and Bethany Cisternino's guest posing routines at the 2013 NPC Connecticut State Championships held in New Haven, CT on June 22, 2013. They both put on great, high-energy displays -- big thanks to both of them! Check out the large-player version directly on Vimeo. And a video recap of the entire competition should be up within a week or two.
Here's the third (and final) video in my series about the 2013 NYC Weightlifting Championships held on March 24, 2013, and promoted by Artie Drechsler. This video covers the heavier-wieght men's classes, and talks a bit about how I involve myself in the competition even when I'm sitting on the sidelines ... Here's a video of the 2013 NPC Powerhouse Classic held on April 27, 2013, in New Haven, CT. This 15-minute video captures the entire event (highly edited and compressed, of course), and individual footage of every competitor. Special thanks to the promoters, the Montanari Brothers, and to Amanda Eva, who handled publicity -- I had a great time! Here is the first of two videos I'm making about the 2013 OCB Spirit of America bodybuilding and physique competition that was held in Carver, MA on April 20, 2013. It's inspired by a passage in the competitor handout that addresses "sportsmanship." This video is more of a teaser -- the next one will explore the competition in greater depth. Here's a video I just finished putting together of the Metroland Championships held in Albany, NY on April 13, 2013, and promoted by John Weissenburger. It was a bodybuilding, bikini, figure, and men's physique show especially (but not exclusively) geared to novice competitors, and I had a really great time recording the event. |
