Taking an Inside Look at the Lives of BodyBuilders
The sport of bodybuilding has changed dramatically from the days of Arnold Schwartznager. Generation Iron has been taking fans and viewers through the experience and giving viewers and consumers a first-hand look. Now, the franchise is working on a third installment, "Generation Iron 3."
Edwin Mejia Jr. is the producer and Vlad Yudin director of "Generation Iron 3". The pair joins Cheddar to explain how this film will be different.
"Generation Iron 3" takes the fans internationally to see the sport around the world including in China and India.
The pair answer the question of what it takes to be a bodybuilder today. Mejia says it is more than just being able to pick up heavy things. He says that the successful bodybuilders are smart, humorous, and have charisma. It is also a lot about what you eat and when you eat.
You might recognize the Wollman Rink in Central Park from its appearances in famous movies like Serendipity and Home Alone 2. And it's also a spot where New Yorkers and visitors flock for some time out on the ice. Andrew Perry, director of operations of Wollman Rink NYC, spoke with Cheddar News about the rink's history, its operations and what to expect when visiting.
The contract agreement reached Wednesday must still be approved by the union's board and its members, but the leadership said actors will be allowed to return to work starting Thursday.
