Bev Francis, an absolute Powerlifting legend. 227kg deadlift and benching 150kg raw. I've got to laugh at the comments knocking her, the woman is a legend. Respect Bev Francis 👍
I cannot believe the stupid and disrespectful comments posted here. I will chalk it up to the ignorance and immaturity of the posters. Bev Francis is a pioneer and legend in the sports of women's powerlifting and bodybuilding. Charles Glass is one of the top trainers of IFBB pros in the world.
I think many of us were cocky while young, making fun of the older generation getting annoyed over our behavior. This is how immaturity now looks from that perspective. O tempora! O mores!
For sure! The comment from JD...Saying Charles has messed up more people then he has helped..Like WHAT?? This comment is Crazy!! I have worked with Charles! He knowledge in training is world renowned! He is and always will be the one of THE BEST!
Bev Francis , Steve , Charles and so much peaple out there are the true legends of the iron game !! Is the Golden Era of Bodybuilding !! Thanks so much for this video because i go back in the time !!
Bev Francis is a wonderful human being. I have been to her gym out in Syosset in the past, and it's a amazing place to work out. Just as Amazing are her 3 amateur bodybuilding shows "The Atlantic States, The Eastern USA and the Metropolitan, that she host every year. The shows at the time were held in NYC at The BMCC Tribeca preforming arts center. - Great shows with top of the line guest posers. -Now held out in New Jersey. Anyway, more power to her and her Husband Steve; they are wonderful people.
Glad to see Charles finally make his way to the East Coast Mecca!... I have trained at both Golds and Bevs Powerhouse and its no comparison!.. East Coast Mecca is the last of its kind!.. The equipment is good, the members are great and the atmosphere makes you work out harder!...
my whole family have heard of Bev, many trained in the same gym she did when she was in Geelong. She was strong as shit and terrified some of the men, i saw her with Steve Michalik and Weinburger actually in Pumping iron 2 and thought to myself theres no way she cant be the best person on that stage in terms of size definition and posing ability. skip to the athletes meeting where there defining feminity and that the judges didnt want ''overly muscular'' bodies you could see her smile and just sink in the chair a little bit. as if the criteria was designed to be the opposite of what she brought to the table. only person stronger than Bev i've ever heard of is Becca Swanson when you look her up you wont forget it thats for sure. I am very jealous she got to train with Michalik though, that would be a real memory to cherish. I am NOT AT ALL surprised by what Frank Zane said, he's notoriously a bit of a prick. okay and direct some what but keeps to himself and is quite smart.
Bev, great to hear your love of the sport and your wonderful philosophy. Also wonderful to still hear your use of the Australian “arse” as opposed to “ass”. Good on ya, mate!
Amazing and inspiring video! I had the opportunity to spend a week at Bev's this year and then go back the day after the NPC Universe and it is an amazing place!
Those two are absolute legends I humble myself What I would give to pick their brains of knowledge and life experiences that they have. So happy to see this video Thank you.
I just re-watched Pumping Iron 2 , which was an absolute inspiration to me in the 80s and I found this video. Bev! Still inspiring after all these years.
I have a lot of respect for Bev admire her, Bev your lookin good, she knows her stuff I don't know why there are some disrespectful comments on here, The word JEALOUSY comes to mind, If you don't like it don't put dumb comments
What's with the closeted people and haters in the comments I mean why are you here in the first place hahaha keep your insecurities to yourself. Bev's phenomenal and I'm not even out of my 20s yet. :D
At the time, according to Bev, almost all the denigration they heard came from women whilst men tended to be supportive. Bev believed it was because men understood the goal oriented nature of the training.
Oh a teacher. I like it. Im a school teacher too who happens to do bodybuilding. But i believe its the other way around coz i started bb before becoming a teacher 😀
Charles has learned a lot from me I had a feeling he could be nearly as half as good as me if he put his mind to it but unfortunately he wasn’t he is was a 1000 times better and the same compared to everyone else best trainer in the country in fact in the world a 1 in a lifetime person with out a doubt
Frank can't play the didge either. Sad effort in recent video. Met Bev at Intrim in Perth when i was a skeleton newby in the early eightys. She's quality.
Why is the upright row still done when it has been proven to cause impingement syndrome and besides cable side laterals 1 at a time is safer superior and even better you use a strap on the wrist connected to the cable because you hand will give out before your shoulder muscles do
I will never understand why people need a personal trainer unless they dont know how to train. I can see having a coach to help you pose and dieting but working out, no. Its obvious allot of people cant train super hard for decades. most people tend to avoid training to failure or super hard.
I watch allot of women train at at least 95% of them never train even close to failure, they usually take a failry light ass weight and do endless number of reps then just stop at a certain number. Its weird. Where some men will actually keep going until they can get another rep. I dont understand why women do this. Lately I have noticed allot of men are doing this aimless crap.
Bev Francis all the powerlifting bodybuilding all the heavy drug use and u have no resemblance of ever working out no muscle no different than Dorian Yates it's embarrassing

She would have lifted shit and never would had been a Powerifting champion without taken massive amount of steroids..
@@mnsusa couldn't you say that about every single powerlifter and bodybuilder that isn't natural
@@foarfield Yes, Absolutely no comparison, the advantage is enormous so why give them so much credit.
@@mnsusa because there isn't an advantage in competitions when everybody is on steroids
A true pioneer of women's bodybuilding. Bev Francis was the truth..
I cannot believe the stupid and disrespectful comments posted here. I will chalk it up to the ignorance and immaturity of the posters.

Sirgromulus the comments are from the younger generation.. and you now the term respect doesn't exist among the.
Sirgromulus you are so right
Sirgromulus you said it spot on
I think many of us were cocky while young, making fun of the older generation getting annoyed over our behavior. This is how immaturity now looks from that perspective.
O tempora! O mores!
Sirgromulus exactly✌
Thank you Bev abd Charles!! You two are inspiration to us all. Wish there were more gyms like the East Coast Mecca
For sure! The comment from JD...Saying Charles has messed up more people then he has helped..Like WHAT?? This comment is Crazy!! I have worked with Charles! He knowledge in training is world renowned! He is and always will be the one of THE BEST!

Most people forget Bev was the Pioneer of women's powerlifting also 👍

You both are amazing!!!!!
Great video and motivational
Bev pionered in a sport woman were not really accepted in, that takes courage. all the negative comments are from total losers.
At the time, according to Bev, almost all the denigration they heard came from women whilst men tended to be supportive. Bev believed it was because men understood the goal oriented nature of the training.
Brilliant! Such knowledge!
Everybody talking shit show some respect for legands
this series is the best. keep them coming
Another solid episode! 👏
Oh a teacher. I like it. Im a school teacher too who happens to do bodybuilding. But i believe its the other way around coz i started bb before becoming a teacher 😀
tons of respect for you Lady Mass
Bev was a legend the first time that she stepped on stage!
oh please we need more content like this!
Frank Zane disliked this video.
I dislike Frank Zane
Why
Great video !!! i love it
Bev was the first female mass monster of the 80s.
StreetTruckinTitan well she dropped the mass.......but is still a monster!
Stopped juicing and lost everything
She was already a monster in the seventies.
Sly Stallone is 72...your point?
Wacko Banana-Pants
Sly takes hgh, test, and anavar
A proper gym
Very well done content.
Old Charlie was giving Bev the eye there! Hes tapping that ass for sure🤣🤣
Tremendous video. Thanks.
Charles has learned a lot from me I had a feeling he could be nearly as half as good as me if he put his mind to it but unfortunately he wasn’t he is was a 1000 times better and the same compared to everyone else best trainer in the country in fact in the world a 1 in a lifetime person with out a doubt
Bev ur a legend
I love Bev, shes so cool
The only guru was Vince gironda 50 years ahead of his time
I agree to that
Steve and Bev's gym and Brian's metroflex gym two no nonsense places to train
Anyone else notice Kai Green Jr. In this vid???
Oh Bev.
great video thx for it
Frank can't play the didge either.
Sad effort in recent video.
Met Bev at Intrim in Perth when i was a skeleton newby in the early eightys. She's quality.
This is a instant classic
Much respect to powerhouse gym
Thanks this was a great video
Frank Zane the three time Mr Olympia? I'm pretty sure he new what is up.
What?
This is amazing
Great Video!!!!!!!
Awesome thks too u all....
whats with all the negative comments if you dont like dont watch
Bevs a legend Aussie girl. enough said.
The training GOAT
Charles Glass isn’t a trainer at Golds Gym in California anymore?
of course he is idiot
anabolic dopeboy I asked a simple question and your response is so angry and aggressive lol. Hop on your PCT, buddy. Your mood swings are showing.
+Vincent Salubro that's the problem,i didn't have my pct handy prior to my most recent cycle so i was struggling to get it but im cruising now
Who is the competitor at 4:30?
Why is the upright row still done when it has been proven to cause impingement syndrome and besides cable side laterals 1 at a time is safer superior and even better you use a strap on the wrist connected to the cable because you hand will give out before your shoulder muscles do
Legends
I love bev. Wish she was my second mom haha.
Is Frank Zane really that negative ?
4:30 who is she?
The best, the best trayn
thumbs up!
I met Charles in Huntington Beach, put a few bucks in his hat.
Tyler Perry how did a poor shit like you manage to spare that much money
Tyler Perry My "mom" used to be my dad so good for you on coming out like that. At least he's supportive of your endeavors. Oops I mean "she"
Joseph Fahey wow that escalated from bodybuilding real fast!
Made me feel good about entering 40
BALLS!!!
4:31 who is that?
wow,,,she looks very different from many years ago"
I will never understand why people need a personal trainer unless they dont know how to train. I can see having a coach to help you pose and dieting but working out, no. Its obvious allot of people cant train super hard for decades. most people tend to avoid training to failure or super hard.
Bev first female with mass.
I'm wondering how did "Bev Francis" unbuffed herself cuz in this video she's no longer muscular?
Why do you care? If you ever lifted in your life you would know. Get back to your potato chips and sit all day.
Thiiiiiirst to see the knowredge!
I liked the Video till that Bubble gut loving Judge Steve Weinberger came on!
Richard Young good that he is not in mr olympia then Rami would have won several times or kai
Good story
Austrailia Bev
its quite sad that natural bodybuilding doesn't exist
I watch allot of women train at at least 95% of them never train even close to failure, they usually take a failry light ass weight and do endless number of reps then just stop at a certain number. Its weird. Where some men will actually keep going until they can get another rep. I dont understand why women do this. Lately I have noticed allot of men are doing this aimless crap.
Depends on their end game. You don't aleays need to train to failure.
Talked old school bodybuilding? Must have missed that. Usual shameless GI click bait.
Oh no, someone let the millenials in, that explains the ignorance of half of these comments.
Bev Francis all the powerlifting bodybuilding all the heavy drug use and u have no resemblance of ever working out no muscle no different than Dorian Yates it's embarrassing
Agreed
Charles has to clean up his image he always looks like he's looking for trash to recycle
Fernando martinez or you can stop being a racists douche bag
Since when is calling someone homeless looking the same thing as racism?
Bounty Rogue Cinemax What he said was true lol he does look like trash and there was nothing racist about it
this isnt a beauty contest. in there to do work
Ur statement shows that u r dumb and carry shit in ur head cus of watching lot of movies .. people don’t want to meet him cus of how he looks
Ellen ? is that you?
Had no idea a transgender man and a homeless guy were the best trainers out there. More power to them.
Jorge Martinez 😂😂😂😂💀
To be honest i was expecting her voice to be more masculine.
Windwar attack lol call them dude. Triggered yet bitch?
Windwar attack wow you're so smart.
Always someone with no content, hiding behind the keyboard to talk shit
Guess that’s how the new generation is just no respect.
That blonde short haired guy is kinda HAWT.
lmfao
Lmao
