1
00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:04,480
Bodybuilders.
2
00:00:08,560 --> 00:00:12,720
They build their bodies
like others build houses:
3
00:00:13,320 --> 00:00:14,960
with love,
4
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:17,240
and science too.
5
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:21,880
Jean Barral shows us
the instruments of torture
6
00:00:24,080 --> 00:00:25,520
they use on their
7
00:00:26,280 --> 00:00:27,240
muscles.
8
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:08,600
Good.
9
00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:26,040
In order to develop
large, toned muscles,
10
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,680
we recommend basic movements
11
00:05:29,840 --> 00:05:34,600
such as the bench press with bars,
for the pectorals, you see.
12
00:05:46,120 --> 00:05:47,920
My friend Nicolas Kléber,
13
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:54,440
who is 1.80 m tall
and weighs 95-97 kg,
14
00:05:54,760 --> 00:05:57,640
can lift 200 kg on the bench press,
15
00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:01,320
160 kg when doing squats,
16
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:07,640
and 65-70 kg
when doing sets of forearm curls.
17
00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,000
His arm measurement is 50 cm,
18
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,600
his shoulder measurement 155 cm,
19
00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:18,280
and his waist 72-75 cm.
20
00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,120
Certainly not at all unattractive.
21
00:06:21,280 --> 00:06:24,200
He placed 2nd in Mr. Universe.
22
00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,080
About 12 years ago,
23
00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:33,440
I was...
24
00:06:34,040 --> 00:06:37,160
Well, a drunkard.
I used to hit the bars often.
25
00:06:37,320 --> 00:06:40,800
I would meet my buddies
and drink quite a lot with them.
26
00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,480
Then I started bodybuilding.
27
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,040
Now I go to the beach
with young people,
28
00:06:47,200 --> 00:06:49,960
I have fun like them
and we have a good time.
29
00:06:50,680 --> 00:06:55,320
Another of my friends,
Bernard, is 1.70 m tall.
30
00:06:55,560 --> 00:06:57,960
He weighs 85 kg.
31
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:03,880
All the trainers appreciate
his well-delineated muscles.
32
00:07:04,040 --> 00:07:05,800
He's admired by all.
33
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:09,400
He can lift 185 kg on the bench press,
34
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:13,560
and 115 kg when doing squats.
35
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:17,520
His measurements are quite substantial :
45 cm for his biceps.
36
00:07:18,280 --> 00:07:22,760
I've been bodybuilding for 3 years.
I was exempted from military service.
37
00:07:23,520 --> 00:07:24,840
Seeing that...
38
00:07:26,160 --> 00:07:28,400
When I went to the beach in summer,
39
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,480
I felt too skinny compared to others.
40
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:33,680
Robert...
Robert and Gérard
41
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:38,120
have gained about 15 kg over one year.
42
00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:42,160
I can assure you
43
00:07:43,520 --> 00:07:47,720
that a 1.70 m-tall athlete
weighing 85 kg
44
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,800
isn't an eye sore at all.
45
00:07:50,160 --> 00:07:53,880
Deltoid,
posterior bundle, the external one,
46
00:07:54,200 --> 00:07:57,640
and the anterior one, right here.
47
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:00,000
All three of them are well delineated.
48
00:08:00,600 --> 00:08:05,040
Each year, the president and I,
we organize competitions
49
00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,280
at the Salle Pleyel in Paris.
50
00:08:07,520 --> 00:08:10,840
It's always a great success.
Many people come.
51
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,720
The lighting is adjusted accordingly,
of course,
52
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:20,120
since the athletes are oiled
and sort of made-up.
53
00:08:20,280 --> 00:08:23,400
We also have a glass ball
54
00:08:23,560 --> 00:08:25,800
that sparkles.
55
00:08:26,040 --> 00:08:27,000
Quite stunning.
56
00:08:27,160 --> 00:08:29,200
A band plays at the same time.
57
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:34,520
Of course, each time,
artists attend the event:
58
00:08:34,680 --> 00:08:38,280
Mick Micheyl,
Annie Cordy or Jean Marais,
59
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:43,400
a lot of people who enjoy our shows.
