Ronnie Coleman The King

This weekend, The Generation Iron Fitness Network and Vladar Company release a feature length documentary Body Building's Ronnie Coleman, arguably the most iconic athlete ever to emerge from the sport to date. Ronnie Coleman The King follows Coleman on his most current journey through surgery and recovery, providing flashback footage from competitions and testimonies from the other greats of the sport. As Coleman seeks to continue to correct his major injuries and to compete again, the audience is treated to rare peek into his personal life. Heartwarming and a testament to what hard work can bring you, Coleman is depicted as a determined, humane person, one that so happens to own 8 Mr Olymia titles.

Every piece in the tightly curated collection is made with Tencel, a fabric that comes from eucalyptus trees. Not only is every garment insanely soft and comfortable, but each will naturally keep you cool. From yoga to the office to a night out on the town, Reprise has stepped up to the plate and has already proven itself as a real game changer.

Four Athletics

Four Athletics is for the athlete in all of us. With a super efficient and direct-to-consumer business model (every piece is crowdfunded to eliminate waste of any materials and pieces are legitimately shipped right to the customer from the factory!), this Made in the USA brand prides itself in not only guaranteeing amazing, "below-retail" pricing (by doing away with that middle man) but also ensures that every pair of leggings is as functional as it is fashionable.

King Charles Unicycle Troupe

Possibly the most challenging sport I have come across to date, Unicycling combines strength, balance, finesse and so much more. After just one lesson with Kip Anthony Jones of The King Charles Troupe, it was very apparent that this is not "like riding a bike." The Troupe, which was founded in the South Bronx, has reigned everywhere from center circle at the Ringling Brothers Barnum & Bailey Circus to the center courts of basketball arenas, and every street in between. In an exciting exhibition and event on November 11th at the Bronx Museum, their legacy and international success will be celebrated.
