About this ebook
Vince Gironda—the name resounds throughout bodybuilding, still. This accomplished bodybuilder and master trainer left a wealth of ideas and methods on training and nutrition that still has relevance today. Though many of Vince’s concepts are known, they’re often not well understood.
That’s where this little book comes in. Originally written as two separate articles on Gironda’s training and nutrition, they’ve been combined due to readers’ requests. This modest volume of concentrated material gives a condensed introduction of Vince’s principles on training and nutrition for beginning bodybuilders, yet there are also surprising insights on Vince’s methods and ways to apply them even for advanced bodybuilders.
This handy guide takes you on a quick trip through Vince’s methods of training, including some of the exercises he used and why he used them. Also featured is a unique physique analysis, which bodybuilders can apply to their own training. The nutrition section features clear explanations of Vince’s dietary principles and how to apply them. There are also insights into the reasons for the exercises and diets. Rarely has Vince’s material been tied together so clearly, so concisely, in ways that shows how to apply it.
Natural bodybuilders especially will find this volume helpful. Anyone searching for better drug- free ways to train and eat will be able to apply these methods to their bodybuilding.
The author, an experienced natural bodybuilder and trainer, has spent years researching, using and experimenting with Vince’s methods, and brings his insights to you in this book.
