Safety & More
Recommendations
» Safety Step #1: The tempos dictate the loads you select. If you can’t
maintain the prescribed tempos, the weight is too heavy.
» Safety Step #2: Master a full and controlled range of motion throughout
the entire rep. Do not change your body position to achieve extra reps.
» Safety Step #3: Stick to the tempos to avoid the use of kinetic energy i.e.
fools gold.
» Safety Step #4: Stick to the progression model below and don’t forget to
wear a stop watch to time the rest intervals.

» The 6-12-25 Split: An ideal split would be 2 days on, 1 day off, 1
day on, 1 day off, 1 day on, 1 day off and repeat. That would look like:
Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. Another option is Monday,
Tuesday, Thursday and Friday. Take the other days completely off.

their loads, rather than their physique. Some “gurus” say you should not be
focusing on tempo when lifting heavy weights and I disagree. I believe that
is the EXACT time you should be using a tempo because it’s an indication of
whether you’re in control or not! Heck, if you can’t lift and lower the weight
in control than you have no business using that weight in the first place.
Using tempos will keep you injury free for life. I’ve never met someone
who got injured while using a tempo. This is not “ego-building”, this is
“bodybuilding!”
» The Rest Periods Matter: When I say 3 minutes, I mean that the next
set starts at 3 minutes so start getting ready for your next set around 2 and
½ minutes. True progress is based on standardizing the tempo and rest
period from workout to workout.
» The Exercise Selection Matters: None of the exercises are randomly
selected, there is a reason we do each one in the order it’s been placed so
don’t think you know what you’re doing and switch things around J This
workout utilizes Positions of Flexion, a concept that my good buddy Steve
Holman introduced years ago. It’s based on biomechanics and targeting
a muscle in the midrange position (where it’s strongest), the stretch position
(where it’s weakest) and the contracted position (where it’s weakest). You
see, most guys choose exercises that continue to make them stronger where
they are already strong - the midrange of a movement. However, when you
ask a guy to squat one inch lower or ask a guy to do a chin up one inch
higher, he can’t because he’s trying to “access” muscle fibers that have been
neglected, therefore weak. In the instructional videos I’ll explain all this in
more detail and you’ll get to see examples of exercises that emphasize the
midrange, stretch and contracted position. In this workout I have allocated
the 6 RM (rep max) to a midrange exercise; the 12 RM (rep max) to a stretch
exercise and the 25 RM (rep max) to a contracted exercise. Again, don’t
mess with the exercise order or selection for optimal gains.

The 6-12-25
Mega-Size Diet
CALORIES:
Bodyweight x 17
If you did not gain 4-5 pounds of fat-free muscle mass after 28-days, readjust
your calories to Bodyweight x 20 the next time through.
MACRONUTRIENTS:
To calculate your macronutrients for a 175 pound male less than 10% body fat:
175 x 17 = 2,975 calories per day
50% carbs = (2,975 x 0.50 = 1,487 / 4 calories per gram = 372 grams per day
30% protein = (2,975 x 0.30 = 892 / 4 calories per gram = 223 grams per day
20% fat = (2,975 x 0.20 = 595 / 9 calories per gram = 66 grams per day
www.vincedelmontefitness.com 8
NOTE:
This is a generic starting point. Each week you will assess how you feel, look and
perform to determine if you should increase your carb intake or fat intake if you’re
not making gains. There is very little need to increase your protein intake, it’s
more than sufficient. Do not make any changes to your diet if you’re not following
it at least 90% of the time or else you don’t have enough intelligence to make an
accurate decision.
MEAL FREQUENCY:
Every 3-4 hours MAXIMUM. A meal cadence any less than this is less than optimal
and will initiate a cascade of catabolic hormones. You can debate about optimal
meal frequency all day long with the “arm chair experts” out there, but I have
no interest in engaging in academic debate. Over the past ten years I’ve worked
with hundreds of clients and they all stick to a meal cadence of every 3-4 hours
MAXIMUM. We strive for at least 5-6 meals a day minimum and no more than 2
shakes a day. Optimally, 1 shake a day but 2 is the max. If you want to look solid,
you need to eat solid food J And if you’re skeptical about eating every 3-4 hours,
take a look at how it’s worked out for my us:

3 whole eggs
8 oz of extra lean ground beef
1 cup of spinach
1 tablespoon of coconut oil
*Mix all this together in frying pan
2 slices of Ezikel bread with 1 tablespoon of walnut or butter
3 caps of Masszymes
2 caps of P3OM

10 oz of white fish
1.5 cups of brown rice or quinoa
½ cup of steamed or raw veggies
3 caps of Masszymes

Meal 5: FREEEEEBIE MEAL!!!!!!!!!
That’s right, you get 1 free freebie meal per day! Take your girl out for dinner, get a
bite with your buddies, satisfy your craving and be happy that you’re bulking up, not
dieting!
This is not mandatory but it’s an optional strategy to help you stay compliant to the
other meals in the day. If you think about it, one freebie meal a day still keeps you
compliant to your diet 90% of the time, which is pretty darn impressive. Don’t
go crazy with your freebie meal but let go of any “obsession” with having to “keep it
clean” all the time. We’re bulking up, not cutting here so enjoy it! I also recommend
you take some digestive enzymes with this meal so help with absorption and digestion
(who knows what you’ll be eating J) I recommend Masszymes and P3OM from
BioOptimizers.
