Generation Iron 2

Generation Iron 2 (2017) is a fitness documentary you can watch online on iFILM, directed by Vlad Yudin as a follow-up to his 2013 original. Where the first film centered on the Olympia stage, this one asks what happens when social media rewrites who the actual stars of bodybuilding are.

Kai Greene, Calum Von Moger, and Rich Piana represent three different paths to relevance: competition results, YouTube reach, and sheer persona. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jay Cutler, Shawn Ray, and Iris Kyle provide the historical perspective — veterans measuring the gap between the sport they built and the one they're watching now. At 106 minutes the film doesn't land on a clean verdict about whether any of it represents progress. That's probably its most honest quality. Stream Generation Iron 2 (2017) online on iFILM.
