Chaos, you haven't been the same since Milos wasn't involved in his gym. What a pity that gym closed. I heard it is/has reopened but it won't be the same.

None of you guys have the vocabulary to dismiss me! Hope this helps.

Its already reopened, into a "fitness" gym. I don't need vocabulary, facts are facts. And you havent answered my question....why aren't your machines in production if they are so good?

Oh don't worry I will be bringing Willgrant with me to Vinces gym.   ;D
Kinky. Didn't know Will was into hairy old men.....

This movie here was loosely based on Vince Basile life including his bicep machine chair.

He's not, but if I am going to sydney then I will bring him along too.  We already want to go to Tony Dohertys gym together in Melbourne.

Why haven't you started production on these machines if they are so good?

this is something that truly hurts vince to read, im being dead serious here. he read that and stuck one finger in each ear and started saying "LALALALALALALALA" while rocking back and forth scrolling down on his mouse with his fucken elbow so that your post would not be in view anymore, because!!....

two missions this man has in life before he dies (very serious!)

1. for a company to finally pick up his spamming advertising posts disguised as "genuine" posts about his fucken hand made gym equipment and for them to be sold for a fortune. this is the reason for his posts about his machines and having to mention that he "invented" them. in the hope that a company will finally pick him up!

2. to get blue stars on getbig by ron avidan. this is the reason he types in blue font instead.

he will die a peaceful man if these 2 things ever get ticked off his list.

I have removed the pads behind the upper arms. Makes the machine simpler with 2 fewer adjustments to make. Also accommodates fellows with thicker arms. I have made modifications to it several times over the last 10 years. I used a lot of stainless steel parts because it is a show piece. Now quite in the final stage yet but getting closer. Those who think dumbbells are superior haven't used this machine.

How is this different to using one of those preacher curl machines? The extra supination? How many more years will it be before you perfect this machine? Would you sell it for the right price?

Vincents BICEP machine is worth more in scrap metal than  anything else.  ::)

I spent over 120 hours designing this machine. When I first conceived of it I went through all the positions for curls and selected the seated position. The arms are not as strong when held up when using the older Nautilus Biceps machine. Neither are the biceps in the strongest position doing various preacher curls. So, seated position it was and with a foot rest to push against.

Having resistance for supination makes doing curls even harder. You don't have to supinate during the movement but just having the load on the supination movement makes the biceps work harder. It was Arthur Jones who pointed out the supination function of the biceps. I always wanted a machine that would have resistance for the twisting movement. Having both on the same machine can provide brutal workouts for the biceps.

Someone pointed out that the photo of me using the machine has been photoshopped. Yes, because it was taken via a mirror since the machine faces a mirror. I had to remove a lot of noise, etc., to get a clearer shot. Then I reversed the photo so you could read Chris Isaak's name.

Very strange that Vince is so negative towards free weights at the end of his life. I don't think I've heard this from anyone else. Just him.

So what? Muscleheads are so set in their ways that it is amazing they ever come up with anything new. Guys at the gym all copy each other.

Exercise selection and form spreads like a deadly virus and infects the hapless flotsam who love lifting weights. They wonder about like robots wondering

why they aren't growing much. They buy the protein and other pills. They hope they can locate someone who can help them get big.

Strange that when you won your non-event title 42 years ago, you yourself had help from 'pills'. Sure, you looked good, but thanks to Dbol. You're fat these days so I'm not sure where your boundless moral authority stems from. As you said on Iron Age to Lydia. You didn't matter then and don't matter now.

Ask Spazile about his pinchgrip machine and how he holds the record lift on it.

Freeweights or machines , it doesn't matter , it's all about consistency (nutrition and lifting) ,  
BTW  , nutrition is the most important factor  for your workout success .
