As I mentioned in the video I was contacted by some very important people one week ago and basically the phone call went like this:
“We need to fly you out here next Wednesday and will take care of everything for you…”
The opportunity was a no-brainer and here I am writing to you from the Renaissance Hollywood Hotel and Spa.
I’m operating on EST time so I went to bed at 9pm PST last night and got up at 5am PST this am. Had a shake, did 2 hours of computer work and then headed down to the gym for a workout.
I did a video summary of the workout and some extra fun and entertaining commentary.
Here is a summary of the Hollywood Hotel Upper Body Push Muscle Building Workout Plan I did this am:
A few effective techniques that we exploited:
-> high rep training (metabolic demand)
-> short rest period (emphasis on work density)
-> Isolation exercises (improve technique)
-> Small to large muscle group priority
Here is a summary of the workout below:
Triceps:
1 Arm Cable Extension: 2 x 25 reps (40 lbs)
1 Arm DB Kickbakcs 2 x 25 (22.5 lbs)
Bench Dips 2 x 25
Shoulders:
Rear Delt Cable Flys 2 x 25 (20lbs)
Leaning Side Cable Raises 2 x 25 (25 lbs)
Seated Arnold Presses 2 x 25 (30lbs)
Chest:
Low to High Cable Flys 2 x 25 (50 lbs)
Pushups 2 x 25
Plus 30 minutes of light cardio getting my head ready for the BIG DAY…
Stay tuned for part 2 tomorrow.
And, below… if you want to guess why I got flown out to Hollywood last minute, for 2 days only, please post your guess below. I look forward to your guesses.

It’s not official yet….
For sure Ali. You’re a 15 year old machine. Go for it.
Vince, I think u r there to train someone????????
r u have given the oppurtunity to work in a movie….
Hey Vince, i need help to overcome my plateau.I just cant seem to add a few more muscle mass.
Hey, you gonna take over where the Weider Brothers left off. Okay they came from Montreal and you are from Ontario, but you get the point.
Zev
the work out routine and all
thanks for the summary and good luck with your career and all.\
im just 15 so is it cool if i do all this stuff
Vince, You cracked me up when you said,”Give it all you got.” I’m still laughing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL!!! LOL!!! LOL!!! Nice touch!!!
i reckon your there to give training advice to some actors.
The workout looks interesting and i am going to try it next time i hit the gym. will let you know how it goes
Maybe something with Taylor Lautner since you have been praising him…
Judging by that last little ‘give it all you got’ I’m guessing you’re doing voice over’s for the next Alvin and the Chipmunks movie
Naw I’m sure whatever it is it’s something huge!
Loved the video Vince,
Chad
i know, you are doing a spin off show to the “worlds biggest loser”, called the “worlds smallest hard gainer”…… just sayin.
“Give It All You Got Vinnie”!!!!
Whatever the reason you’re there…..have fun and knock em out!
Stay true!
Uhm, I don’t think Vince has a coordinator in India.
You got flown to Hollywood because from their you are going to come to London and be my surprise trainer
hai how can i meet vince how can i meet u in India ? And how is the cordinator in India for ur company can u mail me all the information i can buy any thing through online because i was cheated inubrable time so pls help me thanks
I can see Vince in a Hollywood Blockbuster already…
…I like the bench dips.
@AG – you might be on roids lah or any other illegal substances that circulate on your city state island. you sound like you are on something anyway.
vince is a good guy. i appreciate him in many aspects
hey next time fly over to singapore and lemme know then aight? haha!
and people think you’re on roids just cos of 41 pounds in six months? really? I gained 44 pounds in 8-9 months. Is that good? What’d ya think Vince? I’m just wondering cos I don’t know if that’s great or just normal.
oh and as for the guesses, haha maybe they’re forcing you in for a urine test to check if you’re on roids?
naw just kidding, all the best, cheers!
3 guesses:
- You are there to train some actors
- Filming regarding workouts
- Adult movie ?
We’ll wait to hear when things go certain. Honestly, good luck Vince
I feel like I should be offended about the singing comment but you’re right. LOL
No way he should be in a music video. I heard Vince sing in his car in one of his bonus videos! No offense, Vince, but stick to six packs!
I think it’s either a movie role or you’re training some actors for a movie or tv series or maybe getting some tv time for yourself to further promote your product. I wish you the best of luck! I know this because you are always so innovative even outside of musclebuilding!
Some actor is not willing to change his body and that’s why you are there to make him change…I suggest you bring a whip along…Hehe..
Doubt it was a movie roll unless it was a cameo roll to “train” someone within the movie. Possibly to buff up one of the stars, but they have plenty of pro’s out there – Nutrition – nah, not in Hollywood.
I would guess most likely my first – as a cameo roll to train an aspiring (actor of Italian decent) bodybuilder in a reality-type movie.
I think it would be to train some star to get to his/her peak for a movie in a short
amount of time,but what ever it is you are the lucky one cos you are the one that they flew all the way to hollywood,so what ever it maybe all the best and work hard!
ps:can’t wait to find out
wishing luck all the way from Australia
Lisa Borg
You are going to train Tiger Woods so next time he can defend himself from his wife’s 3 Wood?
I slightly remember you mentioned that one of your goals was to appear on TV
about N.N.M.B am i right…
I reckon its a reality show Vince….and you as a coach….either Biggest Loser or a brand new show, whereby skinny guys are transformed into a Bronzed Adonis!
Do I win a prize for guessing?
Nice little vid Vince ! Enjoyed to see you “in real life”, except I wasn’t there – what went wrong ? The plane never picked me up back here in Denmark :/ Ah, all jokes aside.. I definetly think you’re participating in some sort of fitness tv-show like Cobus Botha said with The Biggest Loser og maybe even getting your own program ? If you are feel free to call me, hook me up with a spot in your show.. Would be absolutely great !
Be strong, feel good ! ‘Till next time
Morten from Denmark
Vince,
From the Punta shoot you had with Flavia to flying to hollywood – Is something brewing with D-day with your love of life ?Well Can’t be or it is
Looks like a TV show you had been talking a months back.
Have you finally got the fitness show TV opportunity.
Hope my answer is wrong and you BANG IN IWTH SURPRISE !!!
LOL
Vinnie D,
I’m guessing its a high level mastermind with Davis D aka Eben and his millionairre buddies.
just my guess.
Save a seat for me on the next green room.
Im taking some massive action and getting out of my comfort zone
higher level learning
behavior change
jumped back into training again too so i’ll be keeping up on the posts and shenanigans here on your blog
Best,
Bryan Bliss
aka “two words!”
Maybe it has something to do with the biggest loser. They are going to use you as a guest trainer with Bob and Jilian or you will be replacing Bob, who knows.
Was it to star along side Peter north and Ron jeremy in there latest film?
Not sure what it is but I have to bet something exciting. And whoever flew you over you deserve it man
I know you have been selected to star in a Tiger Woods biopic because of your driving skills
A part in a music video. Like Antonio Sabatto Jr. did with Janet Jackson.
LOL….there are some REALLY REALLY good guesses in there.
Flavia is too hot for baywatch
Keep those guesses coming guys… I’m getting a kick out of them.
Just had the first meeting and knocked it out of the park… nothing official yet… WILL share the big news if it goes through.
Thanks for all your love and support.
Vince
I think you were in Hollywood to help train or appear in the upcoming Rocky movie.
A role in an action movie or perhaps as a body double for an celebrity?
I’m guessing that you’re negotiating a deal for me as my agent. Don’t rollover on me Vince, we both know they’re good for it! haha
Brandon
PS: Good luck man!
Lets see. Maybe a new reality show about gaining muscle.Hope so cuz that would be so cool!!!
Your doing a new reality show called “Training with the Stars”
Congrats Vince,
i hope you get the chance to train someone for a movie or maybe a little part in one or you shall help creating the best Gym in the world for all the hollywood stars.
Well btw nice video its a good backup plan. i had this problem 6 weeks ago in my vacations in portugal (was my first time) and i still trained 80% off my training than at home with just improvising.
Keep up doin THIS kind of videos, just cause its not everywhere such a great gym.
wishes from germany your friend björn
Watching this video reminded me of Cloverfield haha. Great video though. I can’t wait for my move out to LA.
And on another note, I must be staying in the wrong hotels, because I would have been thrilled to see that many weights in a hotel weight room. Usually they’re tiny and packed with treadmills and one stability ball.
Let’s see…how about meeting with producers who want to do a workout tv series?
I think you got called in to speak at a fitness convention or something like that.
Give it all you got – give it all you got. Hehe that´s funny
Good for you Vinny, Could be anything to do with Hollywood. I think a part in an action movie that has something to do with a fitness fanatic. Anyways, wishing you the best of success. Great to see a local boy from Ontario get an opportunity in LosAngeles.
are you negotiating a roll for Flavia … maybe also for your self … in the next baywatch season?
Hollywood = Movies. Hopefully the next Arnold!
I think that a movie wants you to train one of the actors to buff out for an upcoming roll. Or you get the roll…..
Um, I’m guessing Sports Illustrated flew you in to get Oprah toned up for the swimsuit edition? mwah-ha-ha…
I hope and I do wish that you have been invited to Hollywood to star in an action movie or give muscle-building classes to stars of Hollywood.
Wishing you the best of everything,
Alexander Astor
