VINCE'S CORNER:
STYLES OF TRAINING EFFORT.
The Iron Guru, Vince Gironda, has incorporated different styles of training throughout his career. Lights weights with high reps, Heavy weights with Low reps, Heavy weights with high reps and so on. He came to the conclusion that ultimately using Heavy weights with High reps was the most beneficial for making progress in the Gym.
This conclusion, in my estimation, has two benefits:
1) The feel of heavy weights, besides encouraging muscle growth, makes the bodybuilder feel like he is accomplishing something in his training. The heavy poundages makes the muscle become stronger and stronger as the poundage is increased over time.
The increases in poundage also causes what Vince called Hyper-trophy to the muscles which is something we all strive for in every training session we go through..
2) The Heavy weights with High reps tear down tissues at a faster rate which is needed for muscular size.
With all the different styles of training, the bodybuilder needed to use heavier and heavier weights in order to use progressive resistance training in his workouts, this according to Vince.
I believe Vince was the originator of the phase, Progressive Resistance training.
The other part of the equation is the repetition phase. Higher reps in your training are essential to cause the muscles to pump in order to increase its blood supply to the tissues. The higher the reps the more capillaries are build which in turn feeds the muscle and increases its size. According to Gironda, the added capillaries can increase the muscle beyond its genetic potential.
Another of Vince's particular style of training in his Gym dealt with the Intensity Factor. Less rest between sets, increase in Tempo when working out, pushing yourself to do your workouts faster and faster, and progressive increases in weights was very important to the Iron Guru too.
All of these styles of training had one trait in common: To increase one's Pump, build capillaries to feed the muscles and increase its size.
There were other variables in training that Vince also considered, such as the idea that certain exercises required Maximum Intensity like the Hack squat, Neck Presses, body drag curls etc. While other movements required less intensity like chinning, dipping, Flys etc.
In conclusion, there are many styles of training that Vince Gironda advocated in his Gym. Heavy with low reps, Light with High reps and finally Heavy weights with Heavy reps. Try any one of these to find what works best for you and give Gironda's different training methods a try.

Vince Gironda. which works best in your opinion ?

To me, it was no longer a "heavy" weight if I could do "high reps" until about half way or so through a high rep set. I used to tell people that if it is heavy for you, then it is heavy. For example, I have done a set of 225 lbs. for 100 reps on the squat and another time I did 50 reps with 300 lbs. The same is true for example, with leg extensions. I have done 100 non-stop reps with 225 lbs but I broke a leg extension machine after 10 or so reps with 750+ pounds. I kinda got chewed out for that one by the gym owner. ;D
High rep weights were initially "light" for me but believe me, they got "heavy" about half way or so through the respective sets. Your strength is, unfortunately, directly related to how strong you are for YOU. By that I mean what is light for you may be heavy for someone else and vice versa. I also found that for bench press, anything I could do for at least 20 reps I could do 100 pounds more for a single. My best bench press was only 350 lbs. and nope, I never did a single max rep on the squat. It didn't interest me at the time although my power lifting friends would occasionally try to get me to try.
Of course those weights were decades ago. Getting old and falling off a roof took the wind out of my sails, LOL!

Without a doubt heavy weight for reps builds muscle the fastest. I alternate now, each major muscle (quads chest back) gets hit twice a week with an A and B workout. Workout A focuses on strength with reps between 6-8 and sometimes down to 2-4 (squats and deadlifts only) workout B reps are 10-15 but NEVER less than 10 on any set and not really anything over 15. I got the idea from Ronnie and he mentions doing this in his video the older one. Works fantastic. The catch 22 is that you have to train to failure on the high rep days and most cant stomach that. Trust me, its much tougher to truly go to failure with the most you can lift for 12 reps. Its tough. It works but you wont get stronger thus the alternating workouts. I do not go to failure on low rep days.

Excellent routine, sir! Years ago when I trained with someone we would do something similar every so often. Well done, indeed!

Damn impressive Scott. 23 years ago I squatted 225 for 55 reps (at 180lbs) and thought was going to die.
-
I have always used a weight that was as heavy as possible for the reps I was shooting for.........either 3 reps or 15 reps,they made me bust ass to squeeze them out.
Also I have always tried to train with as little rest as possible.
If you and I weighed the same amount and were equally as strong as each other,and it took me 45 minutes to do my workout but it took 2 + 1/2 hours for you to complete the same routine,I trained harder than you since I did the same amount of work in a much shorter time.

wow, I'll bet you didn't walk right for a week after those high rep squats. the most I ever did was 315 for 27 reps and that destroyed my legs for a good while. I use to do 5 sets of 5 with 275 in the bench press but never did more than 305 for a single.

You could argue that you trained harder but does that directly equate to more muscle gained?

sort of time under tension and duration of workout = intensity.
-

another variable would be exercise form. strict or more cheating.

Good question. The answer is no.

No one can continue to get stronger by adding weight. If we did we would all be doing 250lbs curls. Heavy weights and training to failure is not the magic bullet. If it was Olympic lifters would have enormous thighs. No one can keep adding weight to their exercises. If you started at 18 and are now 30 I think you have a pretty good idea of what weight you can lift.
I think muscular growth for lack of a better definition is through gaining in muscular endurance which shouldn't be confused with cardio endurance. The old argument that started with Arthur Jones of the two training protocols. What is better for bicep growth. One set to failure of bicep curls done once a week or even every 9 days or doing 5 sets of 10 reps of barbell curls? If getting stronger was the magic bullet of muscle growth we would all be doing sets of one rep because that's the most intense training you could do.
Truth be told if you were in a gym with so many of these historical champs from the 60's, 70's and early 80's you would think the weights were very light. I know a guy that thought that about Steve Davis. Then he trained with him with the short rests between sets and exercises. Suddenly the light weight was very heavy. I heard the same about Chris Dickerson and Danny. What looked easy wasn't if you tried to keep up especially day after day. Yes, you can make a light weight heavy by slowing the negative and doing a full range of motion. Tired of guys doing half reps with a huge rep strutting around the gym like they are a tough guy. Doing half reps with shoulder dumbbell presses with the 80lbs dumbbells isn't that impressive if you are doing half reps. Same with all the exercises. Bodybuilder as a lot are insecure and have to prove their manhood by stroking their ego through half reps and huge weights.

Yes, we would all be benching Jupiter.

that reminds me of the isometric craze at the advent of the steroid era. Hoffman tried to say it was isometrics that was responsible for the York lifters strength gains. dr john ziegler knew better. It sold more racks for him.
-
When I was a teenager I found Bob Hoffman's isometrics book at the library and faithfully trained just like he said for a month or two. When I went back to lifting I was weaker in every lift. :-[ Bob never told me to take Dianabol in the book.

What would bodybuilding look like without the drug assist? I bet it wouldn't exist except for tiny shows in rented VFW halls. It's all bull shit. Even recreational steroid users know how they look without the assist. It's an addictive drug on two fronts. One is ego that they love the praise they get for their temporary physique, "work" ethic and knowledge. The other addiction is they love the psychological effect of feeling aggressive, confidence and the feeling of well being. When they go off they feel timid, depressed and nervous. A very big incentive to get back on the horse as soon as possible. Like every drug addiction it ruins lives. Want to know how much BS the sport is? Look at the top champs when they retire and quit drugs. It's not a pretty sight. Some never go off and always take something till they have an enlarged prostate or heart issues.

Ever been to a natural show? The contestants are the smallest people in the building.

No idea but my intensity level would have been higher.
Gaining ,more muscle would consist of a lot of variables such as genetics,metabolism,nutrition,rest/sleep,etc.
I was just making a point that I have always believed in that intensity means a lot when training.
-

But you started training before protein was invented, you old ballbag!
Happy Thanksgiving Wes, stay safe and healthy.

High reps with heavy weight for me.
Best my shoulders ever got is when doing dB seated shoulder presses with 70s for 70,60,50,40,30.granted I have done 140lb shoulder presses for a few reps but all that did was fuck my lower back and shoulders.so 70s while not that heavy is heavy for the reps I was doing.I believe the same for bis,tris,forearms and traps.
Chest and back for me is a different story reps of 10-20 work best for me.
-
wow, I'll bet you didn't walk right for a week after those high rep squats. the most I ever did was 315 for 27 reps and that destroyed my legs for a good while. I use to do 5 sets of 5 with 275 in the bench press but never did more than 305 for a single.
When was that in 1967 ?.

Thank you. Your weights and reps are equally impressive. I weighed between 240 and 250 lbs. My family rceently found some photos of me at approximately 200, 230 and 250 lbs. I like to think I was big but compared to competitive bodybuilders I was large but not as big as the really good ones. It took around ten years of training to reach those numbers and weights.
-
When was that in 1967 ?.
mostly early 70's to mid eighties. that's a long time ago. I weighed around 180 at the time. now at 69 I still way 180. so 40-50 years zero net gains. :D

Tell us about how you deadlifted over 500 lbs
The workout structure
one workout every other week on deadlifts. would start with 135 and do 20 reps than jump to 225 12 reps, 315 8 reps, 405 4 reps than do single reps adding 50lbs per set 2X25 lb plates till failure. this was when I was in college. there was one guy who I used to lift with , he could do 405 at 198 lbs bdwt, I weighed 180 at the time. He told me that when he comes back after summer vacation that he would do 600 lbs plus. he did it using just d-bol in 3 months. I don't think deadlifting over 500 lbs is no big deal. when I was in high school a 125 lb girl I knew did 315 lbs the first time she ever tried lifting. my best lift was using an olympic bar and pressing for several reps my two younger twin cousins who weighed in the low 100 range at the time. that one was on film 8mm . ;D I should try it now they are both over 200 lbs now. ::)

You mentioned in another post 545 lbs x2
So tell us about that

pretty much same as above which quite frankly is rather pedestrian. I think members on here would be much more interested in learning how you became a champion, kind of like a blueprint for success. give us your exact routines exercises, sets and reps weights used, diet and drug cycles. some of the younger members would probably like to emulate you and achieve your greatness.

Not too different from my experiences. I got into dead lifting in my 20s and came up with a simple routine based on how I recovered. I found I was not able to max out each week - it was too hard on my spine. I had a very simple workout of once a week doubles and singles, working up to a single max every two weeks. On the off weeks I would only go to roughly 60-75% of my max for 1 or 2 reps.
I eventually reached 450 and called it quits. I didn't like how it made my back feel and I felt the dead lift really didn't do anything for me, physique wise. I weighed in the mid 180s and it was all drug free.

Used to stop at 405 and hit 12-15 reps on dead’s
weeks after the 2005 Arizona open I deadlifted 495 for 3
Then fucked a 18 year old several hours later same day
Also in this time period I benched 405 for 2
The post contest rebound is a nice thing
I was weighing 205-210 at this time a few weeks after my contest weight of 191
And eventually got back to 238

do you think the deadlifts actually helped you body wise? or looking back in retrospect do you think you would be better served subbing another exercise. I later subbed hack squat like reverse dead lifts inside a power rack and felt it gave me better results in my nobody, nothing workouts.
-
I only deadlifted because of king Ronnie inspired me
I do think it helped me yes
But pure bodybuilding wise no
I’d had been better off concentrating on width
I had plenty of depth
Width was all I lacked in comparison to a top 5 USA guy cause they were usually shorter
And I didn’t want to be a heavyweight and ruin my lines and condition
I would have just gotten wider instead of stronger in retrospect to answer your question
But I still met my goal so I’m happy

What got you started lifting weights, I remember you saying you started very young? most old timers on here were inspired by steve reeves and the old hercules movies.

Wow...Excellent lifting! My best DL was an impromptu one at the gym with 505 lbs. The guys (all powerlifters) took the weights I was going to use for squatting and said I could have it if I could deadlift the thing. I did it (kinda barely, LOL!) then walked with it to the squat rack (maybe 8 or so feet) and set it in the lower tier, got under it and did a bottom position squat with it then racked it on the top and took off enough to begin my 20 rep routine. That nearly killed me. ;D
I miss those lads. They were all much older than me at the time and are now all gone. They were the gentlemen that taught me about J.C. Hise and the milk and 20 rep breathing squat routine that changed my physique.

now we're getting into some iron history 20 rep squats followed by a set of pullovers to increase the ribcage.

I was inspired to start age 9
My dad brought home the movie commando from the video store
Back when you had to rent the vcr too cause it wasn’t common for everyone to have one at the time
I watched it and I was soon saving my paper route money to by a 110 set at a store in California called
BEST
The rest is history
I didn’t actually compete until several years after college sports at the age of 24
I Won my first show as a middleweight and I was hooked after that
Then finally met my goal at 38 years old as a light heavyweight and overall winner
Since then I haven’t touched a weight seriously in 5 years
Now I have a golf goal
Life is very good

Then fucked a 18 year old several hours...
This we are impressed with.

Well golf is something that just fell into my lap
After moving to Florida
I went out to many places and met great groups of people
They invited me to come play golf
That turned into the director of golf training me
Now all the old men “ sharks “ love me and like my new blood and enthusiasm
Then I watched the club championship a few weeks ago
Literally stood there watching them finish on 18 and looked at the leader board scores as they wrote them down and I shook the hands of the top 3
Manifesting myself into their position
My coach saw this
He knows I want to win
And if I win he wins
This is why I like it
I can be the student not the teacher
And I’m very much wanting to succeed for him and myself
My currency is athleticism and confidence
It opens any door and pays any tab
Life is good

I never got into golf but my twin cousins see story above were both golf pros. they used to design golf courses and such, and my cousins kid is one of the top high school golfers in pa shoots in the low 70's.

Nice thing about golf
Great clothes
Great atmosphere
Being out in nature
Don’t need weights
Don’t need a diet
Just stretching
And repetition
And did I mention great atmosphere?
Affluence and power and intelligent people
Unlike the basement dwellers here
Not including mayday
Maybe the only intelligent person here

watch yourself IronNat , eprick will ask for naked pictures of you and call you gay if you anger him, you don't want to see him when he's angry or gay.

Gay used to mean happy.
In the old days they were called "fags" or "light in the loafers".
Where did it all go wrong?

There was a snake that crawled over a sharp saw and was cut. In anger the snaked wrapped the saw with its thick body and proceeded to squeeze the life out of the saw.
With each angry squeeze it felt more pain but continued because it wasn’t going to let the saw get away with the pain it caused it. The snake, refusing to let go of the saw, eventually died; not knowing the whole time, he needed to let go of the initial pain and focus on its future and where it was going. Instead, the snake, unfortunately, lost its life and didn’t even see it coming.
Control your anger, forgive those that hurt you, and don’t give people or things power over you. It can ultimately kill you. words to live by.

I see this thread has devolved to the "you're gay" level. There has to be a name for that, like Godwin's Law where you eventually get called a Nazi in a political argument.

ill take it bro

why are you so angry? is roid rage really a thing? 545 lbs in the deadlift is no big deal. is it because I could do it without roiding that has you so upset. I guess at 69 years old I should train up and try to do it again just to gain your approval. I got to give you credit though I like that insult cumdribble, pretty imaginative on your part.

I never claimed to be, just enjoyed lifting just for the fun of it. never said or thought I was anything special.

but you deadlifted 545 x 2
all natty under 200lbs

not really. I always thought I was kind of weak compared to most guys. my best bench ever was only 305 at 180 lbs. after I dislocated a shoulder I've only benched on machines since then. i did 270 lbs of weight on my powertec bench a couple of years ago. some little guy I knew did a triple body weight dead lift for 21 reps he weighed 123 in bunny slippers and guy was in his 50's to boot. .

So there was no 545 x2
I’ll have to just wait for yahoo to confirm
If you won’t

I subscribed to Fred Hatfields Dr Squats holistic training principle back in the day, you couldn't miss combining both heavy and light weights and reps still feel it would be the best base for anyone, but you need anabolic steroid type recovery to benefit from this type of training naturally your just killing your nervous system. IMO

I agree. Power cleans would have given me a better physique. And they are truly functional strength.
