Vince's Second Workout Bulletin - Thoughts and Notes

Vince's Second Workout Bulletin ($16.00)
is a training method of Gironda's based on a rep-time scheme. This was one of Vince's rut busters.

Catalog description:
"Designed to accelerate muscle gain if you have slowed down or are in a rut. Great for those with limited training time."

Vince does not jump right into the program at first. Almost half of the the manual is Vince's philosophy of building muscle. Including what is now called workout intensity. Filled with the never ending quest of Vince to stop over training. As he saw it most people over trained and would cause them to stop making gains. With over training Vince also put instinctive training in his highly critical cross hairs. To Vince training instinctively was not just a waste of time but detrimental to your overall muscle gains. The training is laid out very well and with good instruction on the execution of the prescribed exercises. Not to be left out, Vince's menu for your muscle gains. Raw meat, eggs, cream and lots of veggies also raw... oh and liver tabs. (buy in bulk young man)

Some high lights are:

• Science as yet has not proven conclusively whether instincts is acquired or innate.
• A trainer must have a knowledge of anatomy, kinesiology and nutrition.
• It does not matter how much work you do.. what counts is how fast you do it.
• Words are worthless and often nebulous.. results are what count!

Over all impression: I have done this workout as laid out by Vince and found it to be a good change of pace to my regular workouts. Some of the exercises are not possible to do due to the gym I use. Vince wanted all calve workouts done without wearing shoes for one, but overall one can get a very close approximation of the needed exercises without too much imagination. Bottom line a good tool in your workout tool box..
