Keeping It Fresh

  • What is Periodization? (6:15)
    • Vinnie’s workouts have periodization built into the program.
  • Periodization is the structure of workouts into cycles: “macro, meso, micro.” (12:30)
    • Another way of saying this is: to change things up to keep things fresh.
  • Vinnie goes deeper, using his 2-day routine as an example. (15:00)
    • Periodization is a way to build strength by focusing on different parts of the body. (19:00)
  • Another approach Vinnie uses is in his aerobic exercise. (23:00)
    • Depending on his goal, Vinnie changes things up.
  • How do you know when you should mix things up? (33:00)
    • When you’re not seeing much change happening in your strength, or when you’re getting bored. (39:00)
  • There is such a thing as changing things up too frequently as well. (41:00)
  • If you feel like you are not making progress, it may actually be time to let up for a little bit, not necessarily grind harder.
