Review of Hardcore Training
Posted on 2006-03-07 by Manzano
In a nutshell
Go to the top of this review.Go to the top of this page.Post comments on this review.Visit HardcoreTraining.com.
Porn Power: 10 / 20
  • Camera technique is too amateur... Shaky handheld camera with long boring sequences from bad angles. IMO many of the "pupils" do not have the potential.
Content Quality: 12 / 20
  • Camera technique again. Resolution is average.
Value For Money: 13 / 20
  • Pricing: $24-$30 per month, depending on subscription duration. $5 for 3 days trial. Includes full access to 3 other sites at the time of writing. Weekly updates but not many videos in the archive.
Updates: 8 / 10
  • One new update posted weekly.
As Promised: 8 / 10
  • The tour promises pictures from the shoots. It's true there are stills, but they are lifted from the videos, and are worthless.
Navigation: 10 / 10
  • Simple and it works.
Surfability: 9 / 10
  • I hate the way movies are downloaded, but other than that it works, and the site speed is good.
Total reviewer rating: 70 / 100
  • This is an ok site, but IMHO the videos are just too amateur to be arousing.
My opinion

Ok, so this is supposed to be where the pornstars of tomorrow are born. -And to some extent that is true. F.ex. I bet you've heard of Christine Young, who now has her own site. Well she started out with Yvon on HardcoreTraining (back then it was called YvonsTraining). Well, ok so to some extent it is true, but if you ask me I would say that only a fraction (like 30%) of the girls on Yvons site has the potential to become porn stars.

Let's look at Yvon himself: According to the site "I've been producing adult videos since 1995. I started a small-scale home business in Montreal, Canada, while being on the dole, not knowing what to do and wondering what to do of my limbs, especially with my dick. With time, I became somewhat of a porn teacher for rookie girls."... -Ok, that much we agreed on above. The problem is that Yvon isn't much of a porn star himself. Anyone can fuck on camera (provided they can find someone who wants to join), but that doesn't make you a porn star. -Yvon is a normal, pale, middle aged guy, with a decent sized belly, who has found a great way to get lots of young girls to do nasty stuff to his cock: Point a camera at them. IMO Yvon has no idea where to point the camera to make a good porn video. Further (this may be below the belt) I would say that my cock is about 50% bigger than his, and I have a pretty average-sized wiener :)
-You don't need a big cock to make porn, but it's a good start if you're doing hardcore...

That being said, it's great for him, and it may be great for some people to watch. I bet a lot of people will be able to identify with him, and that, combined with the POV angle often used, will of course give a nice impression of "being there".

The girls are amateur, that's for sure. The average hotness is not all that high, only 30 or so percent are super hot. They are generally young, and most are relatively cute, but if you ask me not many of them has the potential to become real porn stars. Bellies bouncing more that the tits. Tits that just don't look right on an 18-year old.

The hardcore niche is hit though, the girls get down and nasty. You will see everything from lesbian dildo sex over deepthroat training to rough threesomes and anal sex. I also saw boob banging / titty fucking and of course lots of blowjobs and facials.

Like all other sites in this network you get access to lots of off-site bonus material, some streaming videos, live cams, adult games and other feeds. You also get access to the networks shared picture-gallery that holds a shitload of content from many different niches.

Finally you get full access to at 3 other sites. One of the bonus sites is Lesbo101, a site with a similar concept except it is lesbian.
Tech-stuff

The videos come in one average quality, WMV format. Resolution is 320x240 or 352x240 which is average. They are available for download or streaming. Movies are cut into 3-8 smaller clips. Phototechnically they could definetely be improved. Out of focus, underlit or just extremely shaky shots are common.

There are 4 thumbnails for each clip, unfortunately they aren't always accurate, f.ex. there may be a thumb from clip 2 displayed with clip 1... Updates also has 20-60 full sized vid-caps attached, so you can preview the action before downloading.

One thing I hate is the way downloadable movies are downloaded. I don't know how or why, but the links do not point directly to the files, but instead to some sort of script that redirects to the videos. That makes it impossible to use a download manager, which IMO is very useful for porn.

At the time of writing the archive holds only 56 video updates. The non-exclusive picture-gallery has a lot (a lot!) of pictures, the 10.000 claim is probably true, and they cover a wide range of niches. They are well-organised and good quality, but no way to download them is offered. -Other than one by one of course :)
Conclusion

Hardcore training is supposed to be videos of hardcore training. It offers just that. The problem is that it is just too amateur. These videos are probably a great learning forum for the models, and a great way for Yvon to fuck girls that would normally be out of his league. Unfortunately they are nothing more, and I don't feel they have much porn value. They should have been kept a learning medium, and never have been published.

Beware when you visit, that the network this site is part of has one of the most annoying and aggressive console / popup systems I've ever seen... Expect to be bombarded with popups and have all open windows hi-jacked when you take the tour. There are of course no such annoyances once you're a member...
