Vince Gironda Playlist: • Vince Gironda's Diet f...
I have done this workout and made the best progress in my life. Vince gironda was no joke, he knew what he was doing. I too as a young man got caught up reading the magazines and made very little progress.
Its criminal that many gyms dont have those high benches for rows anymore. Using a barbell also, its the best back exercise
its criminal tht people dont know how to train any more
@Simon Palmer yes, they're an isolating exercise. You can get enough lat activation by rowing from the waist, even though it's not the primordial path to the lats. I use cable pulls to get blood to that lats or pull ups, but for an overall back development heavy rows on a high bench. Nothing comes close.
Prison
I remember meeting Vince and having a chat to him at World Gym back in Feb 1991. Straight down the line type of guy!
Jeff M did you talk about any of his diets ?
i thought the thumbnail was a meme of president Lincoln for a second
President Gironda...
LMAO
Vince Gironde was an innovator in bodybuilding!
Yep
No, he was a creator of new useless exercises.
Thank you so much bro. I started the steak and eggs diet yesterday. Continuing today, I feel incredible. It has only been one day but I can’t believe I do not feel tired and drained like other diets that make you feel weak
Placebo..?!
Sam in a positive matter yes. I ate only 4g of carbs yesterday too. Felt so tired at night
Keep an eye on your cholesterol levels Bruno…
Vince was such an intelligent man when it came to the human body and the man practiced what he priested
Practiced what he priested?
He said he was against steroids, but all of his pupils were steroid users and in all likelihood he himself.
Nice article: nattyornot.com/vince-gironda-natural-steroids/ and even though only half of this would be true, it is once again all too clear that the world of bodybuilding is all lies and cheats.
Excellent video, GEB - I love Vince's methods
So basically he was talking about Giant Sets
Exactly
2X per day same body part four different exercises the same body part. 🤨 But on a positive note he states no ab work but his abdominal muscles is getting a hell of a work out in those standing exercises.
Great video/ info
Thank you 👏👏👏👍
Thank you for the vid :)
Welcome
Always great vids!!...love the info on Vince he has a lot of great methods
Glad you liked it
@@GoldenEraBookworm I did a short series on my channel about my workouts during that time of my life...if you get a chance check them out...keep up the great work!!
Thanks Bro!
This channel keeps me pumped!
No need for preworkouts then!
@@GoldenEraBookworm lol
@@robertcronin6603 hehe
@@GoldenEraBookworm like the Legend Leroy Colbert said " if you need a preworkout to train you aint ready!"
@@nusense808 I guess I should rename my channel to "free preworkout"
Worth a try if you have a home gym.
Not practical, however, if you train at a busy commercial gym.
very good video
YES!!!!!!!!!
This information is amazing. The barbell to the neck is the only concern I have in terms of the rotator cuff
I'm coming in two years late (currently going through a lot of old vids); however, I would advise you to avoid it, as it definitely caused harm to mine.
Thanx brother
Trying this at home, as I have basic barbell, dumbbell set and a bench. Can't do this routine in the gym, someone would take equipment during the giant set and the gyms I've been to (Tokyo now/London) are lame on the equipment: Technogym crapola everywhere, cable lengths too short, no standard barbells (only technocrap dumbbells - massive things, all plastic). No hack squat/calf raise/high row bench/2x4 blocks/preacher bench. Vince's gym would be a dream.
Even changing the exercises would be ok as long as you are able to contract the correct muscles. Agree that twice a day is a hard one but since it is not full body it is not that long. Probably you can get it done in 40 minutes or so.
For back I start out with medium weight and work up to as heavy as possible with good form for 10 reps for chest I do about the same thing for arms as heavy as possible with good form for 10 reps per set and legs I Approach with the same method as for calves. I workout multiple times throughout the day for as much muscle development as possible.
It's weird that I missed this video when it was posted. Is it a 3 week long program (+ 1 week off) like Vince Gironda advocated or is it longer? It was not mentioned in the video... Thanks.
thanks dr
please complete exercise video
this programme
Sorry, takes too much time
Awesome! Thanks for elaborating on this some more. Seen this booklet online, but never knew much of the content
Seems a bit challenging to pull off , this twice a day workout, if one has fulltime commitments with work/school/family, etc.
I like the routine, just not sure of the frequency.
That's quite the detailed 'diet' as well. I think you made one vid earlier this year where you elborated a lot more on the types of supps he used .
List was longer than this one.
By any chance do you own the infamous audio of Vince speaking ?
It's like a seminar snippet. Seen it online. I *think* it's 2 parts. I could be wrong. Rather pricey tho. .
No, I was trying to acquire some rare lectures recently
Chest, back and shoulders in 1 workout is way too much. You be fried. Unless you are on STEROIDS. By the time you get to shoulders if you are training HARD, your intensity and RECOVERY will suffer
@@user-ts2co4ov5hdoing 3 exercises like that is the equivalent of 3 sets to failure but you use muscles slightly on a different angle. It actually is surprisingly doable.
What happened with the others muscle groups?...
Let me start by saying that the content in your videos is very good and practical and well spoken and presented. I heard about this routine years ago and often wondered what it was about. This looks like a very unique and intense training method invented by Vince Gironda. You explain it in a way that is easy to understand. You even include a detailed diet and nutrition plan to go with this training method. I really enjoyed this video and learned a lot. Thank you for sharing real bodybuilding information.
You are welcome!
Thanks for uploading this and anything Gironda, GEB! It's great to actually study his theories; he got such a bum rap from many of the muscle mags I read in the Seventies.
Still, that is a tremendous amount of Kelp he is recommending. Did you transcribe that dosage correctly?
Mate, I'm no expert on kelp. I know that Gironda recommended it to speed up metabolism, but 30 per day!!!
Probably because of iodine it will make you burn fat more quick, but healthy on long run?
@@tomg5405 Correct, but thats the question isn't, is it healthy?
@@tomg5405 Vince also wrote to eat vitamins for 3 days, than break for 3 days, and so on. so it wasn't just eating vitamins all the time with no break.
@@GoldenEraBookworm Other people including myself experienced a high nervous reaction with such a quantity of kelp. Kelp is excellent for the body because of its mineral content. Don't overdo it.
Can this style of training be applied to a full body routine but not twice a day though.
What about 2 sets per muscle once per day for the people with normal jobs?
I got good results doing this only once a day mornings, as i don't have time to get to a gym twice a day and evenings in peak time this would be impossible to set up all that equipment and get it available......it's just giant sets......Vince also had a similar routine called the 3 way compound exercise set workout which is 3 exercises done in giant set fashion for 5-6 reps each set, no rest between sets and you perform 3 or 4 rounds each bodypart resting a few mins between rounds....Vince prescribed this workout to Daryl Conant who was his student....i have Daryl's book ConVinced, it is a very informative book!
With his proclaimed exercises and nutritional guides, he died before his 80th birthday. I am now questioning those nutritional claims as to whether they were/are healthy or not.
Can be also depression when he loose all
BOdybuildig is not healthy!
@@gerhardschelbi2302 No! Drugs and improper nutrition are not healthy.
@@gerhardschelbi2302 dépend the way you do old time bodybuilder have a long an healthy life, but since steroids, overeating..
Considering the average life expectancy was less than 70 y/o when he died...
So... Has anyone tried this yet?
That's the weirdest workout I've seen
LOL
🙏
Thank you
How many weeks are you supposed to stay on this routine?
That is a 30 degree incline bench , not flat for the incline and modified movement.
If Im training calfs for heavy weight I'll do 10 reps per set and when I say heavy I mean like you can do about 8 and then have a slight struggle with the last reps of that set . if medium to light weight 50 reps per set. or I will start out very light if on a calf machine I'll start with 10lbs on each side and do 10 reps then increase by 5-10lbs on each side and repeat untill eather you cant compleet 10 reps with good form or you exhaust your calfs. For me it depends on how much time I have for a training session If I have a whole hour I'll Train really light and build up to heavy if I have one class period I'll train medium and work up to as heavy as possible with good form for 10 reps if I have about 5-15 min then I will just work with heavy weight for as many sets as possible with good form durring that time period.
Do they really grow ay least 3 cm per year ? Mine grow 2 cm , then shrink. Once they became smaller because i trained them too many sets. Now i do only a few sets. Still they don t grow. I got genetically thin calves. Its incredibly difficult. If i ask someone that always had naturally good calves...they can t help. They just added 2 cm in one year with WHATEVER STYLE , sets reps. Each grows woth different techniques
@@jjjuhg to be honest my genetics are unusual but I find that starting out with light weight and working to as heavy weight as possible tends to work best for me doing 10 reps per set so if on a seated calf machine you would start with about 5 to 10 pounds on each side to warm up do about 50 reps then add eather a 5 or a 10 lb weight on each side and do 10 reps then increase the weight again and do 10 more reps do this until you cant do another set eather because your calfs are exhausted or because you cant go any heavier if you cant go any heavier and your calfs are still nor exausted reduse the weight at the same rate that it took you to reach that weight only if you reach the weight that you started with before getting exausted only do 10 reps and if your not exausted then if your strong enough put 10lb or 25 lb plate on each side and do as many sets of 10 til you cant do any more with good form or work with the beginning weight and do reps til you almost reach failure because if there is 1 thing that I have learned over my 3.5 years of training its that muscles grow best with different exercises and for weight being as heavy as possible with good form for as many sets of 10 reps that is what has helped me but it is good to work with light weight as well for me I have noticed that if your trying to develope strength you should work with heavy weight with a 10 rep range if for definition light weight for 50 reps if for over all development a medium weight for 10 reps. That is what has been working for me for the last year and a half and ive put on over 5lbs of muscle durring my summer break. So as long as you train with high intensity and focusing on feeling the muscle streach and flex durring each rep and work hard to master good form and focus on developing a strong mind to muscle connection and are consistent witb training you can and you almost certainly will grow now I can't tell you how long it will take for you to grow or how much you will grow but what I can promise you is that if you do these things focusing of good form and creating a strong mind to muscle connection and focus on streaching and flexing the muscle durring each rep and streaching through the whole movement and flexing the muscle the whole way through on each rep that you will grow and become stronger.
But for how many week I have to do it?
Dude, Bad Ass....
24 Ostrich eggs a day - that's stretching it!
The exercises make sense with full stretch and contractions. How many reps per set?
he said 12 but 20 for calves
I ordered the book and didn’t know it was a small booklet. Which one is his complete book?
Try Vince's locker. Big book. All his articles. $50. Highly recommended. I have it
Why doesn’t blend the milk in the blender?
When he says the muscle has 4 sides, what exactly does he mean?
4 sides= upper, lower, outer, inner.
Eric Anderson thanks, do you think the 4 different sets literally target each of these sides?
rippeder.com/content/vince-girondas-muscle-has-four-sides
I sent goldenera bookworm this link a few weeks ago, in the hope he'd make a video of it's priceless info.. But here's the link to read for yourself. It contains all the muscle groups, exercise description (including side of the muscle being worked) along with photos of Vince himself performing each exercise.
I would up the Vitamin C to 16-30 grams a day!
It gives me diarrhea and can be too acidic.
good way to stop gains. too antinflamatory. inflamation is important for growth. hence why nsaids should be avoided as well
Full body 3 x week.its.a.same.thing. less cortisol
For the tablets you can just eat liver
Why not mix milk in blender
Shyikes!!
OMG 24 raw eggs, don't know if I can keep that down. Lmao
I wish I could do all those exercises 😔
My shoulders are wrecked 😣
Have you tried training the rotator cuff to get some relief? The right exercises along with fasting and anti-inflammatory diet might activate healing powers you didn't know you had. That and making sure to get the right repair materials like DHA, EPA, cologen, etc. Some people have turned it around; I hope you can too.
I have had wrecked shoulders for about 4 years, but slowly turning it around. Don't stop training, but do something about it, concentrate on the rotator cuff movements!
@@theserpentshaman5027 good advice
This is not practical for the average person. Most people struggle to get in one workout much less two in a day. Also, unless you have your own gym, it would be very difficult to lay out 4 set ups for each muscle group in a commercial gym. This is one of the main reasons why Vince’s principles have been all but forgotten. He was on the right track but his principles just weren’t practical for the average person.
Guys please do not round your shoulders forward on a dip 💀💀
He looks like Abraham Lincoln
This's opposite to D.Brignole system: 1 best exercise for each muscle. Anything else's less effective &/or less efficient &/or less safe.
Back when they thought you could change the shape of a muscle.
also notice how long ago vince created this theory. prolly incorrect now
Sounds fishy. I follow Gironda's teachings and have for years. He was a BIG proponent of getting enough rest and not over working. This two workouts in one day sounds like someone wanting to put their own stamp on his teachings, or this was designed to put actors into some sort of shape at the behest of a studio in the shortest amount of time.
I did one time during 3month a workout 2 times a day, I got the best results ever but the work out where short max 15-30min. It was not vince workout but it work. Marczl rouet the Vater of french body building (dammage that he wasn't know in USA) says he try and study the work out of all famous body builder. And what work the best is train every muscle each day to keep the blood and nutrition, but you have to learn relaxation and visualisation to recuperate quick otherwise you can't do it. He was also the father of Hypnose and self Hypnose in France
@@tomg5405 cool!
Obviously Leroy Colbert is rolling in his grave hearing this over training schedule, he would say it's for guys on gear and he would say no way for natural bodybuilder
😂
this is ridiculous
THE FREQUENCY IS OBVIOUSLY GEARED TOWARDS THE STEROID USER SO VINCES THEORIES CONFUSE ME.HOWEVER I STILL USE HIS MOVEMENTS.
I completely disagree with u. With such a program, anyone who believes and applies themselves will develop a champion ship physique.
um.....kind of a nut.
Strange exercises and a terrible diet.
Interesting history, but I think I will pass on this one.
Obsolete.
Sounds time consuming.... Unless you live in a gym. Training the same muscle 4x a week and twice a day. I think Vince was just weird.... Plus that diet will just give you high cholesterol, liver issues and maybe heart palpitations or thyroid issues from that much kelp.
Cholesterol is a precursor to hormone production. It's very neccessary if you want big gains.
@Ze TheGame Dietary cholesterol has no proven link to heart disease.
@@graysonwing2946 You are correct here, sir, along with the erroneous link to heart disease. Keep spreading the word.
Not to mention, gas.
If you say so Dr!
