WPW-750 Christa Bauch Compilation 1993-1998 |
|
 |
 |
After competing as an amateur in Germany in the early 1990's, she won the German Championships and turned IFBB Pro, competing in her first pro show- the Jan Tana- in 1993, where we did our first photo/video work with her. We, and Ray Martin, had a total of 8 different sessions with her from 1993-1998 and this 'compilation DVD' features all of her bikini/one-piece posing scenes from those tapings. The footage was taken from the following original videos, which will continue to remain in catalogue: WPW 230, WPW 322 (two sessions) and Ray Martin #11, 42, 81, 115 and 142. Her first interview from 1993 is also included, but if you want to see other interviews, gymwork and dress posing, those scenes are on the original titles only. Christa was never in off-season shape- even when we had shoots with her away from a contest she was always in lean, ripped shape, generally around 140 pounds at 5'2". In addition, she was already in her mid-40s for the first session, so she was around 50 for the last one in 1998. Christa was easily one of the most impressive women on the scene during the 90's, displaying a hard, chiseled physique and great size throughout, but was always famous for her incredible arms. Video/DVD runs 2 3/4 hours. |

WPW-751 Andie Thiel, Theresa Hendricks & Cathey LeFrancois |
|
 |
 |
Andie and Theresa are two of the top women on the current national scene, and their footage was taken in top contest shape at the time of their contests in 2009. Because the work was done 'on location' there is no gymwork, but both women hit the shots in one bikini and one dress, and are interviewed. We have done work with Theresa before, and here the 48 year old checks in at a well defined 5'6" 140 pounds. This was our first video work with Andie, and she was in awesome shape- huge muscle size and shapes at 5'2" 160, showing off very impressive definition even with that amount of size. Andie is 37 and displays 16" arms, even in contest shape. The footage runs about 40 minutes for each, so to help fill out this release, we have added about 25 minutes of Cathey LeFrancois from a session (c. 2004) that was never completed. Cathey was in top bodybuilding contest shape and her only scene shows her working out in the gym in a green bikini. Three different physique styles, but all in great shape with exceptional facial beauty as well. Video/DVD runs 100 minutes. |

Kathryn has been competing since 1981 and when she does the Masters Nationals this year (2010) at age 50, she will become one of the very few 'four-decade women' who have done shows in the 80's, 90's, the 00's and '10's. And, in addition, as far as we know, she might also become the first 'five decade competitor' by age- 20's through 50's (not sure about Michelle Ivers...). Despite her longevity, it took us until 2004 to do our first session with her (WPW 583), but then followed up with WPW 627 and 731 also. This fourth release for Kathryn was taped in July 2009, in near contest shape just before her Masters Nationals contest. The 49 year old checked in at 5'3" 145 pounds and poses in two bikinis and three dresses, and is interviewed. Physique-wise, Kathryn shows off her impressive upper body shots, and continues to have some of the best calves in the sport, all topped off by a great looking blonde retro hairstyle. For four small fun scenes, Kathryn poses to live piano music- 1960's tunes played once again by pianist Paul Fejko. Video/DVD runs 1 1/2 hours. |

Junell is from Pennsylvania, competed in two regional contests in 2008, took 2009 off, and will be on stage again in 2010. We had our first photo/video session with her in early 2010 when she was in classic off-season shape at 5' 150 pounds, featuring 15" arms, 17" calves and 27" thighs- quite impressive for this 31 year old who had only been training for a year before her first shows. And, despite being fairly new on the scene, she did some impressive lifts in the gym (12 strict chins, benched her bodyweight for 20 reps, curled 105 for reps and racked the lat-pulldown machine) in addition to some repwork. It was way too cold to go outside, so she posed in attractive living room settings in a bikini and four dress items. Despite being off-season she showed some good definition in her upper body, and her triceps and back were very solid and thick. Her lower body featured calves which were deep cut and her thighs showed impressive size and shape. An interview also included. She is currently being trained by "Sharee" and she expects her to be in lean contest shape for more regional, then national shows in 2010- we hope to do more with Junell at that time. Video/DVD runs 1 1/2 hours. |

WPW-754 Gerri Deach-Davis |
|
 |
 |
Gerri has been one of our favorite physique models over the past 6 years- this new video is our fifth with her taken over a five year span. Our first session with her was in 2004 (footage on WPW 611) and that was followed by WPW 639, 658, 711 and now this material, taped during 2006-2009. As always, Gerri was in top ripped contest shape- lots of size, shape and hardness on her 5'4" 165 pound contest-shape frame- and, she continues to be one of the most vascular women on the scene. We start off with our regular WPW cameramen taping her at the 2008 Masters Nationals where she hit the shots in her bikini, dresses and was interviewed. We planned to tape Gerri in off-season shape to add to this footage, but were unable to do so. So, the rest of the footage here was taped by freelance videographer, Tom Nine, during his many photo/video sessions with her from 2006-2009. He tapes pretty much in the 'WPW style' and Gerri was in ripped shape each of those years. She posed in many more swimsuits and dresses, and two more small interviews are also included. Gerri is almost 50, but continues to compete at a very high level at the national shows, particularly the Masters, and she will be doing that contest again in 2010. Video/DVD runs 2 hours. |

WPW-755 Maribel Dominguez |
|
 |
 |
Maribel competed during the 1990's (as Maribel Montalvo), mostly in the NABBA contests, and after a 10 year break, she has started to compete again in NPC figure events. We met her at her comeback contest- a regional show in New Jersey in early 2010- and was impressed by her perfect bodybuilding/figure physique look and facial beauty- and, all of this at 45 years of age! At 5'1" 135 pounds she has the size of a bodybuilder, the lush shapes of an off-season look, yet with very good definition, including impressive back, arms and thighs in particular, with deep cut abs as well. She is a professional hairdresser, and her own hair and makeup were right on. The gymwork is a combination of strong lifts (double bodyweight for reps on lat pulldown, racked the calve machine, etc) and reps, then we move on to posing scenes in her bikini and three dresses, including the now-famous 'cinnamon dress', which is tailor-made for her. Despite the 10 year layoff, and that she is now doing figure, we posed her bodybuilding-style and she didn't miss a beat during very long posing scenes. Also included is her footage from her last show- the 2000 NABBA Universe, which we took from WPW DVD 570. Maribel's friend and training partner, Nicole Gengara, who has started to compete this year also, assisted in the gym and took part in the closing interview. Video/DVD runs 2 1/4 hours. |

WPW-757 "Off Season" Compilation - VOLUME 1 |
|
 |
 |
This will be our first of several upcoming 'Off-Season Compilations', featuring footage taken from previously released WPW videos. Doughdee Marie, in 1983, was the first bodybuilder to get 'huge' in the 'off-season', in order to train heavier for the following year's events.All women here are in 'classic' off-season shape, featuring huge size and shapes for their height, with some definition- no one is ripped! We will feature Doughdee and other women from that era and the 90s in future compilations, but here, we have chosen 13 different women from 2002-2006 for this release. The women pose in bikinis only- if you are interested in the gymwork, posing in dresses and interviews, check out the original videos listed. The women featured here include: Kim Birtch (from WPW-679), Danielle Smith (WPW-642), Jill Livoti (WPW-517), Nuriye Sener-Evans (WPW-528), Rhonda Dethlefs (WPW-629), Maribeth Rossi (originally on WPW-579, now on WPW-735), Gina Davis (WPW-603), Joanna Thomas (WPW-545), Marnie Power (originally on WPW-568, now on WPW-671), Michele Burdick (WPW-657), Sophie Duquette (WPW-540), Jennifer Abrams (WPW-516) and Shannon Rabon (WPW-501).

WPW-758 Kate Cooper, Julie Peavy & Bonnie Pappas |
|
 |
 |
 |
All three women were taped at the time of the 2010 Masters Nationals and were in chiseled contest shape- quite impressive as all three are between 45-50 years of age. Kate, 5'4" 136 pounds, poses in a bikini and dress, showing off impressive back, arm and chest shots in particular. Julie, the oldest at 50, poses in two different shorts/halter outfits, and the 5'6" 154 pounder is very defined throughout. Bonnie, 47, is also ripped throughout as she poses in a bikini and dress. Each woman gets about 30 minutes here- Kate had an interview, and the other two speak during their posing scenes. Video/DVD runs 1 1/2 hours. |

WPW-759 Sateash Berge, Jennifer Scarpetta & Yvonne Edmunds |
|
 |
 |
 |
All three were taped at the time of the 2010 Junior Nationals when in top contest shape. Sateash, an impressive newcomer, gets 40 minutes here, posing in a bikini, two dresses and is interviewed. The young looking 33 year old displays impressive muscle size at 5'8" 168. She was the Wisconsin State Champ in 1998, then again during her comeback in 2009. We had less time with Jennifer, but the figure woman turned bodybuilder was in very good contest shape (5'6" 145 pounds), posing in a bikini and dress for 15 minutes. We have done some work with Yvonne in the past- here she shows off good size and shapes (and great arms) while posing in bikini and two dresses, with a small interview. Yvonne's portion runs 30 minutes. Video/DVD runs 1 1/2 hours. |

WPW-760 Stacey Pillari, Marina Lopez, Kristi Bruce |
|
 |
 |
 |
Stacy, Marina and Kristi were all in lean contest shape at the time of their tapings at their shows in 2010. Stacy was ripped and very muscular at 5'1" 110 pounds, and the 45 year old from North Carolina had a great year, placing high in masters events, then a top-five in the Nationals. Her footage runs about 30 minutes and includes posing in two bikinis and a mini-dress, and she is interviewed. Marina had a fantastic 2010 as well- she was the overall champ at the Junior USA, placed 2nd in the USA, then won her class in the Nationals, allowing her to turn IFBB pro. We only had a short time with her, resulting in 15 minutes of posing in a bikini and dress. Marina is from Colorado and she also was in very lean and wiry shape. Kristi has also been having a lot of success on the circuit, including winning her class in the 2009 Junior Nationals. She checked in at 5'3" 140 pounds for this photo/video session which has her hitting the shots hitting the shots in a bikini and shorts/halter, and she is interviewed. Kristi is originally from Kentucky, now living in North Carolina. DVD running time about 75 minutes. |

WPW-761 Sharon Mould & Maria Mikola |
|
 |
 |
|
Sharon and Maria, both from Ontario, Canada, were taped in contest shape at the North American Championships in 2010. Neither are 'shredded' body types, but were lean and show a lot of size with great shapes- Sharon at 5'2" 130 pounds and Maria 5'3" 140. Each poses in a bikini and dress, and are interviewed. In addition to their impressive muscular size, both can point to their arms as their standout bodypart. Something else in common- both women are well into their 40's and very young looking for their ages- Maria is 42 and Sharon 46 ! Video/DVD runs 80 minutes. |
|
WPW-762 Jody Wald, Janet Kaufman & Lilli Ewing |
|
 |
 |
 |
All three women were taped in top contest shape at their events in 2010. This was our first session with Jody, and the 2010 Canadian Champ, now IFBB pro, hits the shots in her blue posing bikini and a shorts/halter outfit. At 5'1" 140 pounds Jody was packed with muscle, with a nod to her very impressive upper body shots. We have done work with Janet before, but she has really packed on a lot of muscle since last time, yet maintaining her definition. Both her upper and lower body are well developed and ripped which helped lead her to a 2nd place finish in the 2010 Nationals, and she has also recently turned pro. Here, Janet poses in a bikini and two dress outfits- her impressive physique is topped off by a great retro blonde hairstyle, making for a beautiful physique model. This was also our first session with Lilli, though Ray Martin did work with her in the mid-90's, which is available on Ray Martin DVD 36. After some years of not competing, she is on the scene again, and was in very, very lean contest shape here- her arms are particularly impressive. She poses in a bikini and two dresses. There is a brief interview with Janet, but time constraints kept us from interviewing the other two women. Video/DVD running time 75 minutes. |

WPW-763 Chris Porter-Haynes 1994 & 2011 |
|
 |
 |
 |
We first met Chris Porter in 1984, a few months prior to her first contest, the 1984 Superbowl of Strength Bodybuilding event, which she won. We noticed her at the gym that summer when taping another woman, and her thighs (very developed from years of speed skating) in particular caught our eye. We set up our first taping with her for the day after the Superbowl. That footage, which includes gymwork, interview and posing in bikini and dress, was originally released on WPW DVD 24, then later batched with Rene Casella on WPW DVD 146- the latter is still available. Also included from that era are 2 of her contest routines (including the 1985 America's, now known as The Nationals) and 2 guest posing routines (the routine from the 1985 Superbowl is poor quality, but the others are fine). OK, fast forward to 2011, when Chris Haynes made her 25+ year comeback as a 'physique' competitor at the 2011 Masters Nationals in July. Chris was leanly defined- upper and lower body- with great looks and grooming- hard to believe she is in her early 50's now! She poses in bikini and dress and is interviewed. WPW videographer John Nafpliotis taped everything so far, then Tom Nine had another session with her a few months later, when she was a spectator at the 2011 Ms. O, where she posed in bikini and two dresses, and is interviewed again. A unique video showing the 25 year old Chris as a thick bodybuilder, then moving on to her sleek 'physique' look in her 50's. DVD runs 2 1/4 hours. |
