WEIGHT TRAINING

• Fan of Vinnie wanted to know how many sets/reps to achieve a certain ‘deal’
• Wanted to know about how to add chest muscle
  • Are chest flies worth it vs bench press?
    • If you have a lot of time, use flies to complement bench press
      • If you strictly want to add muscle meat, do bench press then incline press
      • Flies are worth it if you have time to do it
    • Bang for your buck comes from presses
• Vinnie does bicep curls with 5/10/15lb weights
  • He is rehabbing and doesn’t want to press it
  • He will not continue once he gets back to 30/40/50lbs
    • Then, he will do pull ups etc.
    • Vinnie doesn’t like what curl biceps look like
      • Too Mark Wahlberg for his taste
        • real boobs vs. fake boobs
        • Curl biceps look too done
    • Vinnie is also a fan of lat pulls
      • Use a band attached to the top of your door if you don’t have anything else
      • Pull down to your clavicle
• Vinnie likes a little extra tricep
• A crossfit body is a good body, but lots of people get hurt doing crossfit because of bad instruction
