A TRIBUTE TO THE LIFE AND TIMES OF THE FIRST LADY OF BODYBUILDING - KAY BAXTER YOUNG
This award winning feature chronicles Kay's rise from obscurity in the late seventies to the pinnacle of bodybuilding fame in the early 80s. Includes previously unreleased archival footage as Kay's career is recalled and celebrated in a series of montages.
Kay Baxter Young starred in more bodybuilding films and videos than any other female bodybuilder, and this quintessential look at this world famous lady gives an amazing insight to Kay the person and Kay the bodybuilder.
Kay placed 8th in her first Ms. Olympia in 1982 and 16th in 1984, but never considered wavering from her pursuit of maximum muscle. “Someone had to stick her neck out for the cause of muscular women ... and I’ve got no regrets about that... not one”, she said. One of her catchphrases was "Get built without guilt".
Kay died in a car crash in LA in 1988 just as her career was moving towards films. She was inducted into the IFBB Hall of Fame in 2001.
The DVD also includes clips of Vince Gironda, Hannie van Aken, Gary Leonard, Don Ross, Diana Dennis and more.

Each year the EFBB British Championships determines which two bodybuilders will join the professional ranks. Tensions run very high indeed! 1992 was no exception with one of the most controversial decisions ever - judging by the "boos" when each place was called out in Heavyweight Class (Over 90kg).
When it got to fourth place we witnessed one of the most disgraceful exhibitions of bad sportsmanship we have ever seen, when MICK THEO, not content with his fourth place, walked over to the girl holding the enormous first place trophy, grabbed it off her and hurled it to the floor! We read that he was suspended for two years.
First place getter, and new Professional, JAY DEE DOWADU (see front cover photo) was outstanding, and fully deserved his brilliant win! When J.D. was announced winner of his class, the stage was over run with his supporters, with as many as 30 fans swamping the triumphant (but bewildered) bodybuilder. However, he didn't have it all his own way in the Overall posedown, as he was pushed to the limit by NABBA Universe and Mr. World Class winner, ROBERT WALL.
JD Dawodu went on to have quite a successful pro career. He was always noted for his magificent arms. (See PCB-154DVD The Prejudging)

Dawn flexes on the streets and subways of NYC knowing full well the effect her famously peaked biceps are having on gawking onlookers before breaking into a posing session with Mah-Ann that ends with the two arm wrestling. Two exotic amazons appear together in one great DVD!

Pumping Iron 2 The Women is a 1985 classic documentary film on women’s bodybuilding, focusing in particular on 4 women as they prepare for and compete in the 1983 IFBB Caesars Grand Prix World Cup in Las Vegas. The four stars are Rachel McLish, Bev Francis and newcomers Lori Bowen and Carla Dunlap.
LAS VEGAS, 1983; THE RUN-UP TO THE FINALS OF THE WOMEN'S BODY- BUILDING WORLD CUP CHAMPIONSHIP.
Competition for the $50,000 first prize is fierce and emotions run high, especially when Bev Francis enters the arena. Bev, an Australian and World champion powerlifter whose incredible physique puts her firmly in the Schwarzenegger class, presents a serious challenge to the more sleek competitors - as well as the judges.
Pumping Iron 2 was produced as a follow-up to the groundbreaking 1977 film Pumping Iron. By the late 1970s, women had discovered the sport of competitive bodybuilding and were doing the same kind of training as their male counterparts. The Caesars Grand Prix World Cup was a contest created specifically for the film. The international field of 15 competitors was by invitation only and the women were hand-picked by the production staff of the 'Pumping Iron' movie.
The greatest focus is on Bev Francis and Rachel McLish. Bev Francis had no bodybuilding experience when she arrived in the US and was trained during filming by 1972 AAU Mr. America, Steve Michalik, who also guest posed in the film. Bev later became one of the top competitors in the sport in the late 1980s. In the Ms Olympia competition, Bev was 3rd in 1988 and 1989 and 2nd in 1990 and 1991.
McLish, a two-time Ms. Olympia winner (1980 and 1982), was the most successful woman in the sport's history at that time. She had done more than probably any other woman to popularize the sport, and is still active and a popular icon of women’s bodybuilding today. Bev and Steve run the extremely successful Bev Francis Powerhouse Gym – “The East Coast Mecca of Bodybuilding” - located in Syosset, NY.
Other prominent bodybuilders featured in the film include Tina Plakinger, Kris Alexander, Lori Bowen, Marjo Selin, Lydia Cheng, Gladys Portugues, Shelley Gruwell and the contest winner, Carla Dunlap. The film was based on the book Pumping Iron II: The Unprecedented Woman by Charles Gaines.
There are some gym training scenes as the women work out, and the stage competition held at the famous Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas. Here they are judged and compared in the traditional way, through to the final awards.
The Results: 1983 IFBB Caesars Grand Prix World Cup
December 10, 1983 Circus Maximus in Caesars Palace, Las Vegas, NV
1. Carla Dunlap $25,000 Las Vegas, NV
2. Tina Plakinger $10,000
3. Rachel McLish $6,000
4. Lori Bowen $4,000
5. Kris Alexander $3,000

15. Lori Birdsong
Some comments and quotes on the film:
“In the end Carla Dunlap won the contest, (a very worthy winner as 1983 was a big year for Carla Dunlap - she also won the1983 IFBB Ms. Olympia title), Rachel was third and Bev was eighth out of fifteen. As Francis said, “I should have been first or last – not slap in the middle.”
“Lori Birdsong was not a pro and had less than a year of bodybuilding experience. She was a 22 year old model from Dallas who George Butler had picked for her wholesome All-American persona.”
"Excellent and very entertaining look at the world of female body-building.
Highly recommended." THE VOICE.
". .the most peculiarly enthralling documentary for some time."
MONTHLY FILM BULLETIN.
"Bev Francis...has pushed her body far beyond any recognizable female limit"
THE SUNDAY TIMES.
Beautiful.....Jam-packed with humour.....very human and technically outstanding. An excellent film”. NME.

Special Note:
All footage used is owned by us or has been licensed to us for use in this documentary. Copyright free background music has been used for the older footage transferred from film. Some of the early film footage was shot under extremely difficult conditions when 8mm film was the technology of the time. We have digitally enhanced this oldest footage where ever possible. We know that all true Zane fans will treasure this rare material from almost 50 years ago.
This is our complete footage on Frank Zane. Some of the material is first time ever on DVD, while some has been seen in other DVDs we offer.
This special feature has been over 2 years in the making. We salute a great champion.
Unsolicited Testimonial:
One word to describe your Zane DVD: EXCELLENT!
Love the “never before seen” footage, included. With the bombardment of "Mass Monsters" these days, it’s refreshing to see a beautiful physique... that seems... attainable?

Join 2007 Bodybuilding Hall of Fame inductee, Shawn Ray, as he embarks on a new chapter in his life, "Fitness After 40." Shawn retired from competitive bodybuilding in 2001, got married in 2003 and became a proud father in 2005. He is the spokesperson for VYO Tech Nutritionals, IFBB Contest Promoter and has now completed his 6th Video production.
The concept of Fitness after 40, encompasses the rejuvenation of Shawn getting back into the gym at the age of 40 and transforming his sedentary life into one of activity and healthy eating once again after a 5 year layoff. No longer the Bodybuilding Competitor he once was but human and 40 like many others just like him. In Shawn’s quest for getting back in shape, we witness a glimpse of Shawn Ray the man. Shawn takes us on a journey through his accomplishments, his struggle to get fit once more and shows us life after the stage at home with family and friends.
This Series & DVD shows us the fans that the age of 40 is not a death sentence and that life after the stage is as exciting to watch as when Shawn graced the Olympia Stage for 13 years with the best built men on the planet!
