Professional bodybuilding has become a massive, global institution since the days when Arnold Schwarzenegger was pumping iron back in the 70’s. Now men and women from all over the world perfect their muscles, quads, triceps, biceps, pecks and every other muscle you can think of all in the name of glory – that sweet, sweet, sweaty glory. But earning such a prize means overcoming some incredibly heavy obstacles, and in the first, exclusive trailer for the new documentary in the Generation Iron series – GENERATION IRON 3 – we get to hear about the sacrifices competitors have to make and the hurdles they must leap all so they can be called the biggest and the best.

More so than in any other competitive arena, the world of bodybuilding requires competitors to push their bodies to the limits, and this third entry in the series seeks to answer what it is to have the perfect physique by following bodybuilders from all around the world.
