Subject: My take on a classic Gironda bicep exercise...(GREAT stretch)
If you want massive biceps, you
HAVE to hit
the stretch position of the curl...
...and
for achieving that stretch, the Supine Bench Curl was a
Vince Gironda
favorite.
The
version I've got for you here adds even MORE stretch to the
exercise by setting you on a DECLINE bench instead of a flat
bench.
There
is a trade-off, however...and that is LESS tension as you
come up to the contracted position of the exercise. That can be
addressed by immediately following this curl with a contraction-
focused exercise like a concentration curl or cable curl.
For
this one, you'll need a decline bench...(makes sense, right!).
Start
with a couple of relatively light dumbbells. Lay back on
the decline bench and hold the dumbbells in the top of the curl
position. Your head should be up off the bench so you get
some tension in through the core to help stabilize the movement.
Now
comes the fun part...
Lower
the dumbbells, straightening your arms out. HOLD at the
bottom for a few seconds, developing the stretch tension in the
biceps.
Then
curl back up, using a deliberate contraction of the bicep
muscles. The key here is to really feel those bicep fibers
engaging to move the weight. Keep the upper arms FIXED in
position while you begin the curl up.
This
is a very simple exercise and VERY effective for putting
massive stretch tension on the biceps.

If
you want to learn more about Vince Gironda
and his training techniques, this is a book
you'll want to check out...
This
the most complete and comprehensive writing on
Vince Gironda ever put togther and is a must read for
anyone interested in his training teachings.
He was a big inspiration to me and I devoured the whole
book one sitting, when I got my copy.
The "Iron
Guru" was perhaps at his pinnacle of fame in the
"Golden Years" of bodybuilding, the 1960's. During that
time,
Vince dominated the scene and Vince's Gym, was known as
the Mecca of bodybuilding.
Not only
champion bodybuilders trained at Vince's Gym,
movie stars were also regular visitors to seek Vince's advice
and training. People like Eric Estrada, Clint Eastwood,
Clint Walker and many others. Hollywood studios used
Vince and his gym to shape up their stars.
This updated
eBook contains more than 300 pages of text,
drawings, and pictures in PDF format. It contains a wealth
of information on and from Vince Gironda. There never has
been, and presently there is nothing in existence, that can
compare with the Updated Vince Gironda Legend and
Myth for information on and about Vince Gironda, his
methods, and concepts.
Vince
Gironda Legend and Myth contains interviews with
Larry Scott, Don Howorth, Dick Tyler, Bill Pearl, comments by
Dave Draper.
