Talking of pre exhaust.. Bob Kennedy was a very nice man on the phone. I had 2 long conversations with him and he was sound as a pound

I hear it wreaks bloody havoc on the shoulders though...

yes i shoulda pointed that out as it can really tax the delts if done sloppy or to heavy,i also use about half the weight i would use on reguler flat bench. its a movement thats meant to be done very smooth and controlled,if done any other way your delts might be trashed in a bad way

well i called him Bob. He made time to talk no problem. I have wrote this before but i did ask him about Gironda. All he said was i donīt know what was wrong with him..maybe because he never won a Title. Never said any more.

You have many people in the iron game who feel misunderstood. I'm sure he had a good understanding about training & nutrition and a strong will power as well, but again, you're born with a certain set of DNA.
He did a good job with Mohamed Makkawy, who defeated many guys bigger than him.

Yes he did, Vince was not the only Guy involved in Makkawys success. Ken Wheeler was also a big influence.
