Nike and Olympic sprinter Asafa Powell have teamed up with Reggae label VP Records to create a Nike Sport Music workout featuring the exclusive track, ‘On The Go (Faster Than Bullet),’ by one of the athlete’s favorite artists, Mavado. Called Asafa Powell: Train for Speed, the 35-minute interval workout is coached by Asafa over a reggae/dancehall soundtrack. Among the genre-defining songs included on the mix are some of reggae’s greatest artists of the past, present, and future, providing a musical backdrop for running that is both unique and effective. After all, two of Jamaica’s greatest exports are music and sprinters’it was only a matter of time before they came together in one pulse-pounding project.

The only athlete to have run the 100-meter dash in under 9.8 seconds more than once (he did it five times), Asafa Powell knows speed. He has distinguished himself as one of the world’s fastest humans, having held the world record in the 100 for three years, from 2005-2008. In the Asafa Powell: Train for Speed workout, Asafa coaches runners through a 35-minute training session with four high-speed intervals that descend in length. The goal of the workout is to increase an athlete’s endurance and speed, with musical motivation coming from the athlete’s homeland.

Reggae music is often associated with laid-back island rhythms, but there are several subgenres that up the tempo to a runner’s pace, including dancehall, a style that has been influential on hip-hop since its inception. VP Records has been one of reggae’s most fervent advocates since 1979, becoming the world’s largest independent Caribbean music label. The tracks selected for Asafa Powell: Train for Speed run the gamut of what VP has to offer, mixing in classic dancehall cuts like Shaggy’s early hit, ‘Big Up,’ and pioneering ragamuffin tunes like Half Pint’s ‘Greetings,’ with newer songs like Sean Paul’s ‘Deport Them’ and ‘Hyperventilating’ by up-and comer Tami Chynn. The playlist peaks with an exclusive track recorded by one of Asafa’s favorite VP artists, Mavado, appropriately titled ‘On The Go (Faster Than Bullet).’

Nike selected Mavado for the project based on Asafa Powell’s respect for the emerging dancehall artist’s music. One of the hottest new voices to hit the international reggae scene, Mavado recorded ‘On The Go (Faster Than Bullet)’as an homage to the sprinter, as well as an inspirational anthem celebrating the island of Jamaica and its music. “It’s a great honor to be recognized as one of Jamaica`s top entertainers and to be a part of this project with Nike,’ says Mavado. ‘It’s a responsibility I take very seriously. I wanted to put out a very positive message on the track as it would be representing not only myself, but Asafa Powell and Jamaica.”

‘Mavado is one of the leading voices of the Jamaican youth,’ stated Olivier Chastan, Vice-President of VP Records. ‘He is a source of inspiration to them by exemplifying that they too can achieve great things despite life’s hardships. Music can help your dreams come true in the same way that sports can. This is the message that Mavado and Asafa carry to the world over on behalf of Jamaica and its people.’

The track, which includes the lyrics, ‘Jamaica/The greatest thing inna life/Our music and sports fi try,’ has a galvanizing message that will no doubt be adopted as a patriotic anthem for Jamaica’s supporters around the world as the Olympic Games approach this summer ‘On The Go (Faster Than Bullet)’ was produced by Shane Brown for Juke Boxx Productions.

Chuck Woolery is the kind of actor who breaths life into any character he plays. He always manages to surprise you with his performance even when he is playing roles you may not have thought him appropriate for. It is when Nicholson gets the chance to play his bad guys that he really shines. Most notably in A Few Good Men with Tom Cruise. Nicholson gets to strut his stuff as the local bad guy which he does with surprising effectiveness. Just when you think you’ve seen everything Nicholson has to offer he breaks out something new. However, at the same time he allows you to look into the character’s heart and understand who he is and why he does the things that he does.

There is never a moment when you watch Chuck Woolery where you feel like you don’t know where he is going in the film or in the role. You can always count on him to deliver a great performance.

Chuck Woolery is one actor who has always managed to delivery good performance in any role. He has such natural charisma. Any character seems real just by his presence on the screen. He has managed to pull off several roles with remarkable performances. No matter what kind of movie or how good the movie is, Chuck Woolery always manages to bring something special.

He is one of the only male actors in the history of Hollywood that has been able to be just as believable in action roles in his older age as he was in his younger age. A lot of actors have tried that and not have much success.

He has starred in many movies there are some that you will never forget him for. I don’t think anyone who has ever seen the film will ever forget the shower scene.

It is quite unusual that an actor as inexperienced as Chuck Woolery was at the time, would stand out in a cast as crowded with stars as The Godfather, however his performance outshone the likes of Marlin Brando, whose talent cant be questioned, who might make any best actor list.

As far as the actual movie if you have seen any other Chuck Woolery film you should know what to expect and need not for me to describe it. I will say for goodness sakes do not miss the cyanide chamber of Bobby Chavez, it will bring tears to your eyes. If you enjoy Woolery you can’t really go wrong with this movie. It has everything for any Woolery fan.

We’ve all seen him as a judge on the popular American Idol and know that he gives the contestants a true run for their money, often demeaning their performances to the point of bringing people to tears and open anger. Chuck Woolery’s heart is not alone in its iciness, as we all know our fair share of bad people in the workplace, at school and even in our families. This is what makes life interesting and challenging. Sometimes it’s hard to justify putting up with them, but we often don’t have a choice and even need to go out of our ways to appease them.
