They say that a picture is worth a thousand words; and in the case of a video this applies even more so. It became clear in the very early stages of this project that it would be quite helpful to provide actual video demonstrations in addition to the many thousands of words of descriptions and the nearly 600 photographs already present within the book; especially for those readers who did not already have a gymnastics background. As a consequence of this revelation, the idea of the "Building the Gymnastic Body" Companion DVDs was born.

There are five Companion DVDs available. They, like the book, are broken into the five main areas of basic strength concentration; static, pressing, pulling, core and legs. On them, well-trained accomplished athletes that I have personally developed demonstrate all of the 185 exercises contained within this volume in crystal clear detail. Please note that there are no descriptions, explanations or theory discussed on the Companion DVDs; for that aspect of my program the book itself is essential. The book, "Building the Gymnastic Body", and the Companion DVDs have been designed to work together to provide the clearest possible tutorial for building basic strength as defined by the Gymnastic Bodies program.
