    Default Raising the Bar 4: CHAPTER 1 of 11 - "I thought that nothing could destroy us."

    Through interwoven close-up life stories and strikingly intimate vignettes Raising the Bar 4 delves into bodybuilding further than ever before, giving an unadulterated look at the strange and often heart-wrenching, untold stories of bodybuilding in a raw and unscripted eleven-part YouTube series.


    RTB 4 is an honest, unforgettable glimpse into the lives of these professional athletes as well as many others whose lives have been forever altered by fitness and the powerful tool that is the camera.


    Chapter 1 Synopsis:


    At the end of RTB3, we saw Dave Pulcinella and Haley McNeff walk away hand-in-hand, a seemingly happy couple. When the curtain rises on Raising the Bar 4 we see that their relationship has not only ended, but threatens to wreak havoc on their lives.


    With female bodybuilding on the verge of dying out, she might be its last hope…but will the 20 year old Hayley be able to handle the pressures of being thrust into such a demanding role at such a tender age, while also dealing with her first real adult heartache?


    We explore this and more and also reveal the shocking reason behind Dave and Haley’s demise in the debut episode of Raising The Bar 4.


    Also Featured:


    • Mike Pulcinella’s journey from filmmaker hobbyist to MHP’s man-behind-the-camera


    • Behind-the-scenes footage of Victor Martinez—Mike’s very first shoot of a pro bodybuilder—only a few months after Victor’s devastating career setback knee surgery.

    If you haven't seen the Raising the Bar 3 clip, watch it and this chapter will make more sense. This is basically a prequal. Hayley McNeff Youtube Raising the Bar or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NYjasy3Isfo

    This footage and the footage from Raising the Bar 4, chapter 1 was filmed in 2009 and 2010. Later chapters were filmed later.

    Feel free to share thoughts and reactions

    Only if enough people ask for it. DVDs are difficult to produce. I want to be sure people still want them

    Wow! I've never really watched any of these, and I think its time to change that. I love the way the films are shot and narrated. Very engaging and really piqued my interest to watch them all.

    Thank you! That's very nice to hear.

    You can watch sample clips of the first three here...

    And you can get the downloads at a significant savings over the DVDs here...

    If you like to have DVDs I do have a few copies of the Trilogy package left. After they are gone I'm not sure if I'm going to make any more.
