Yep, Chad's back. And his many fans deserve a lot better than this. Conners is so massively pumped these days that he moves awkwardly and has lost a real sense of aesthetic beauty. In addition, some of the sex is obviously faked, and director T.J. Paris relies too often on slow-motion and looped footage. Fans of muscled studs will find Conners, Rob Steel and Chance Caldwell easy on the eyes, but otherwise, Chad's Back is a real disappointment.
The video is enlivened by the presence of sexy pros Peter Wilder and J.T. Sloan, as well as attractive newcomers Jeremy Tucker and Steve Shannon. The latter pair are featured in the first scene, set in a locker room. Tucker ends up sucking off Shannon hungrily, and Shannon roughly plows him as he's bent over a bench. Both men boast an impressive set of sexily defined abdominal muscles, and their sex has some heat.
Conners is featured in a threeway in the follow-up scene with Wilder and Paul Carrigan. Wilder's as fit, tanned and lickable as ever, but Carrigan does not look his best. All three take turns sucking each other off, and Conners first tops Wilder, then apparently has his own butt slammed by Carrigan. Unfortunately, much of that pairing is rather obviously faked.
Handsome Rob Steel is paired with J.T. Sloan in the third scene, and while both men are easy on the eyes (I could observe Steel all day), their sex isn't especially interesting, aside from a nice moment or two as Steel rides Sloan's cock. In the fourth and final vignette, Conners stuffs himself with a dildo before Caldwell turns up to take over. There are a few anonymous penetration shots displayed in extreme close-up, but the wide shots show Caldwell and Conners badly acting as if they're in the throes of passion. Enough, already.

The only thing missing from this vanity flick, "Chad's Back in the Gym" (1999), is a title song: You see Chad flexing, stripping, fucking and posing endlessly.
The video starts with Chad grumpily (his favorite emotion here) returning home, lightening up only when watching himself flex in the mirror. Now, granted, Chad is a beautiful slab of beef, and he clearly adores himself. Before we get very far, however, Steve Shannon and Jeremy Tucker are in the gym admiring each other's bodies and talking about abs while fondling other impressive parts.
Jeremy Tucker, and his equally famous penis, is a stunning sight to behold in just a towel, and looks even better with Steve slobbering over his abs and stroking his dick. Steve strips too, and the two of them are a sight to behold. You can have your big muscle men, but I don't see anything wrong with these supremely toned smaller guys. Particularly these two. Anyway, the blowing begins, Jeremy having a tough time with Steven's dick until it gets appropriately hard, and then doing a fine job. But, before long, Steve is feeling around Jeremy's ass as the latter begs to be fucked. The fucking arrives, and starts one of the most annoying things about this video, namely the use of slow-motion at the most inopportune times. The scene languishes (I can't believe either one of these scorchingly sexy men is in a scene that languishes!) until Steve turns Jeremy on his back for a very good fuck. After they shoot copious loads on Jeremy's adored abs and head for the showers, Chad walks in and demands to know "What the fuck just happened in here?" of the empty room.
Chad strips and heads for the shower -- in slow-motion. Then he's in the gym, stripping for Paul Carrigan and Rob Steele. Rob sheds his shorts and they flex together. Paul doesn't seem to mind, but he doesn't join in either. In a strange first move for the star, Paul darts first for Rob's cock, leaving Chad out in the cold in this initial three-way. Eventually, Chad is in on the fun, getting rimmed by Rob, sucking, getting sucked, but all of them share the action pretty evenly, Paul the standout of the three. He does even better sucking Rob while being fucked tamely by Chad. Near the end, and after a ton of, yes, slow-motion shots, Chad ends up as bottom for about 10 seconds before Paul and Rob cum on him. Wacky early-1980s MTV editing doesn't help this scene any.
Chad and his massive legs next clump up his spiral staircase (if any body parts in this movie wins, it's the legs, massive sexy tree-trunks all of 'em) and massages his ass while a dildo waits patiently on his nightstand. Somehow this turns into a scene where sexy handsome Peter Wilder is an angry gym-bunny yelling at J.T. Sloan because the showers don't work. The only thing J.T. can think to do in appeasement is suck him off (note to self: complain about the showers at the gym tomorrow). What ensues is clearly the videos best scene, two pros going at it very well, with no vain trappings getting in the way. But the music here has more false climaxes than a night of lesbian sex, none of them placed anywhere near a climactic moment in the action. J.T. is a sucking master and does very well on Peter's prick, returned very much in kind with great lip action by Peter. Peter's fluffy ass is then prepared by J.T.'s insatiable tongue for a good fuck. The fucking close-ups here work very well, each thrust opens Peter a little more to make J.T.'s entrance increasingly imposing. Plus, they are both so damn good looking! Peter also rides nicely on J.T.'s cock when the positions change. The man in the corner jacking off gets a considerable amount of screen time during this episode, cumming twice in slow-motion, the same shot! J.T. and Peter spray wonderful loads here, in slow-motion, as the scene ends.
Chad is still at home playing with his dildo when larger-than-ever Chance Caldwell, looking like a cross between Andre the Giant and Fabio, arrives, telling his friend "you don't need that" before the two enter full-grope mode. Chance is B-I-G, he dwarfs Chad, who is not small himself. Chance also supplies the hardest dick throughout, I might add. Chad doesn't mind it, letting is slide in and out of his mouth with ease. But, just then, the video goes slo-mo and it's a little trying to watch the dick-slapping-the-face routine at that speed. Mercifully, a 69 replaces that part of the scene, but, you're getting good now, a slow-motion sequence takes over. It lasts throughout most of the rest of the scene.
