   Channel description: Coleman had his early training DVDs remastered in HD; this is the first training tape he ever made (originally VHS), with bonus footage from the 1997 Mr. Olympia. In his own words he placed 9th in 1997 and considered retiring; the following year (1998) turned out very differently.

   What to watch for: original 1990s training footage restored and uploaded by Coleman's own channel, one of the best-sourced 'last-century training films'. Note the equipment and pacing of the era and compare with his 2000 film The Unbelievable (also recommended on this site).
