Facebook Twitter Reddit Flipboard LinkedIn

Put your weekend to good use! Here are some films that will shock, motivate, inform and entertain.

For many, bodybuilding is not the just hobby it’s the complete lifestyle. From workout plans, diets, to free time are all completely consumed by the desire to sculpt the ‘perfect’ dream body.

We have compiled a list of best bodybuilding films everyone should watch to get a feel of the life of a bodybuilder and the determination many bodybuilding stars and celebrities have put in to get to where they are now. We are sure they are going to pump you up!

10. Stay Hungry (1976)

Stay HungryArnold Schwarzenegger and Jeff Bridges star in this classic film that actually netted the young Oak a Golden Globe for Best Acting Debut.

A classic movie: A syndicate wants to buy a whole district to rebuild it.

The rich sunny-boy Craig Blake is brought in by the syndicate as a dummy to buy the gym. But then he starts to like the people and falls in love with Joe’s friend Marie-Tate.

Nearly 20 years later the big man made an unprecedented return to the sport he once dominated. This documentary chronicles Lou Ferrigno’s courageous and incredible journey back to Mr. Olympia after a 19-year absence.
