Pearls of Wisdom - Bill Pearl
Also available on Digital Download.
This DVD is genuinely one of the rarest in my collection. Very little footage exists on the great BILL PEARL, author of "Keys to the Inner Universe" and other well known books. He is also probably one of the world's greatest bodybuilding trainers. Bill has been the force behind many of the world's top physiques for the past 30 years, including the great Chris Dickerson, Mr. Olympia 1982.
BILL PEARL is assisted in the seminar in Australia by his long time friend DENNIS TINERINO. Their Pearls of Wisdom cover such subjects as diet advice, nutrition versus drugs, training philosophy for bodybuilders and athletes, bodybuilding politics, contest preparation, sleep, pain barriers, injuries and much more. All serious bodybuilder will be fascinated by the information given jointly by BILL and DENNIS in this master class seminar.

This seminar was shot only a few days after Dennis won the 1981 IFBB Professional Mr. Universe title in Sydney, Australia. He maintained his magnificent condition for the seminar as you will see during his flawless posing routine. BILL also presents his unique posing display in Australia with all his famous poses, making this DVD a true collectors' item.
Here is some extra info on the outstanding contest career of DENNIS TINERINO who passed away from cancer on May 7th, 2010 aged 64. He had the rare distinction of having won an Overall Amateur Mr. Universe, won his class twice in the Pro NABBA Mr. Universe, won the IFBB Pro Universe and also competed in the Mr. Olympia 6 times.
Please click here to see a John Corlett photo of Dennis with Tony Nowak at Arnold's second inauguration in Sacramento on January 5, 2007. Tony passed away on April 6, 2010. He was "Big Tony" as seen in the Pumping Iron DVD.

60 Year History of the
NABBA Universe
Customer comment:
Great and rare footage of Bill Pearl.
A tremendous amount of BB history, great to see all those legends.
Bill's life is the history of bodybuilding.
One of the greatest BB's of all time. And the best of his time.
Undefeated in nearly 20 years of top level competition.
He inspired millions and improved the sport.
The first major bodybuilder to pose with a golden tan, and to use music with his posing.
A great champion and innovator.
But more importantly one of the nicest human beings you will ever meet.
Very enjoyable DVD, thank you so much.
