My Experience Training With Vanessa Cambria

Hey my friend…. welcome back! Hey Nino as always it’s great to be back…. ready to discuss another exciting topic with you this week! Well my friend it’s funny that you should be bringing up our next topic of discussion this week….. because guess what? Gee Nino what….. is everything ok with you? My friend things couldn’t be going any better for “me” lately! My friend as a matter of fact things are about to get even better, for both of us today!

Gee Nino it’s been quite awhile since I’ve seen you this upbeat and excited since we’ve been getting, together here week after week! Yeah my friend your absolutely right it has been quite awhile since I’ve been this excited, and it’s for a very good reason why that’s the case today!

Gee Nino now you have “me” all excited and curious here all of a sudden, on “me” knowing just why your so excited today! Gee my friend I’m sorry I definitely don’t mean to keep you in the dark here today, in you trying to figure out just why I’m so excited at this very moment! 

My friend would you really like to know…. why I’m so excited for both of us today?

Gee Nino what do you think absolutely…. I definitely want to know?

Well ok my friend I guess I’ll let the cat out of the bag then and finally tell you, why I’m so excited for both of us today! Gee Nino thanks because if I also have to start getting excited today about something I need to know what it is, so I can start jumping up and down with you! Gee my friend that really sounds like fun I haven’t jumped up down since I was about 6 years old, on “my” bed to see if I could touch the ceiling with “my” head!

Ok my friend that being said I really think that we should stay seated today…. ok!

Gee Nino why’s that?

Nino because I was actually looking forward to doing some jumping jacks with you today to get “my” heart rate up a little, as we get ready to discuss our next topic here together this week! Well my friend the only problem I see with that is…. simply this! My friend I think it’s going to be hard for us to talk and focus on our next topic of discussion today, if we’re both jumping up and down here this week!

Yeah Nino I definitely hear what your saying here because we both should stay focused today, as we’re discussing our next topic here together! Nino so we can continue on helping people in certain area’s of their lives that their struggling with, and are in need of some guidance on! Gee my friend I couldn’t have said it any better myself…… nicely said!

Ok Nino so that being said….. what are we going to discuss this week?

Well my friend I’m glad you asked “me” that…. because that’s a huge reason why I’m so excited for both of us today! Gee Nino does mean that you already have our next topic of discussion this week? Yeah my friend….. I sure do! Gee Nino that’s actually a good thing because I’ll be totally honest you, I had absolutely nothing for you this week to talk to you about! My friend that’s ok because you’ve been coming up with pretty much all of our topic of discussions here in the last couple of weeks, so I think it’s only fair that I come up with one now!

So my friend that being said…… would you like to know what our next topic of discussion is about this week?

Gee Nino absolutely…… I sure do!

Ok my friend I’m not going to keep you in suspense any longer today in you trying to figure out, just why we’re supposed to be so excited this week about our next topic of discussion….. ok!

Hey Nino would you mind if I try to guess on what our next topic of discussion is about this week, before you go ahead and tell “me”? Gee my friend that sounds like a great idea to “me”! My friend actually it’s been quite awhile since I’ve had you to try to guess, on what our next topic of discussion is about! My friend that being said….. would you like “me” to give you a little hint first to make it a little easier, for you to try to come up with the right answer regarding our next topic of discussion this week?

Gee Nino could you because I definitely think that if you give “me” a little hint regarding our next discussion today, I have a strong feeling that I can guess the right topic! Gee my friend that sure sounds like to “me” that your extremely confident, in you guessing the right answer to our next topic of discussion today…… I like it!!

Ok my friend here’s your little hint…… are you ready??

Yeah Nino absolutely…… I’m ready, willing, and able to guess our next topic of discussion this week!

Ok my friend our topic of discussion today has to do with one of the three “special” people that we discuused awhile back, that God brought into “my” life to make Nino’s Mission possible today! Gee Nino that’s a huge hint you just gave ”me” because your either talking about Vanessa Cambria or her husband Mark or Tom Venuto….. right!

My friend your absolutely right…… good job!

So my friend that being said……. which one of these three “special” friends of mine do you think we’re going to be talking about today??

Hmm Nino let “me” think a minute here…. ok!

My friend absolutely take a few minutes and think about it….. I’m certainly in no hurry today! Gee Nino thanks….. I promise you that I won’t take long in coming up with the right person that we’re going to be talking about today… ok! Gee my friend I have to say it again to you…. which is simply this! My friend your definitely showing “me” alot of confidence that you know which one of these three “special” friends of mine….. we’re going to be talking about today! Well Nino I guess you can say that “my” confidence in myself has been really building up in “my” life, ever since we’ve been hanging out together here week after week!

My friend that’s GREAT to hear….. you just made our mission together all the worth while to keep on going here, until it’s 100% successfully completed! Furthermore my friend I have a strong feeling that your confidence level in yourself is going to be going up the roof here in the next few months, as we continue to hang out together and discuss alot more topics! Gee Nino I couldn’t agree with you more….. I’m excited about it!

Ok Nino that being said…. I think I know which one of your three “special” friends, we’re going to be talking about today!

Great my friend…. let’s hear it!

Ok Nino….. I have strong feeling that the “special” friend of yours that we’re going to be talking about today, is none other than “Vanessa Cambria”! Oh my friend…. I can’t believe it! Gee Nino what it is…. did I guess the wrong person? My friend it’s just the opposite you amazingly guessed the right “special” friend of mine! My friend how did you know that I was referring to “Vanessa Cambria”…..  as being our topic of discussion today?

Well Nino to be totally honest with you here it wasn’t hard for “me” at all to know that you we’re referring to ”Vanessa Cambria”, as being our topic of discussion today… simply for this reason!

Nino would you like to hear the reason?

Gee my friend absolutely…. I would love to hear your reason in how you came up with “Vanessa Cambria” as being our topic of discussion today!

Ok Nino…. here it is!

Well Nino I just thought back to when we had the discussion on how “Nino’s Mission” came to life, and remembering that Vanessa was the one that gave your mission that heartbeat to get it all started! Gee my friend your really impressing “me” today because that discussion took place awhile ago, I can’t believe that you remembered all that…. great job!

Gee Nino are you kidding “me”! Nino it’s like I’ve been telling you now for quite some time….. which is simply this! Nino I’ve been taking every discussion that we’ve had so far here together very seriously and to heart, and I’ve applied it to my own life situations, which has helped “me” a great deal so far in how to go on handling them simply by “me” making “No Excuses” for myself!

Gee my friend I’m so happy to hear you say that because I’ll be to totally honest with you, I had no idea that our discussions that we’ve had so far have impacted your life in such a positive way! Well Nino now you know…. so let’s keep on discussing those topics ok!

Gee my friend that sounds good to “me”!

So my friend that being said….. in our next topic of discussion this week, I’m going to share with you ”my” experience I had training with Vanessa Cambria! Also my friend how she helped “me” understand the true definition of “me” making “No Excuses,” in regards to “my” physical disability when performing certain exercises that were extremely challenging for “me” to do!

My friend are you ready for “me” to share with you today…. the amazing experience I had training with “Vanessa Cambria”?

Gee Nino absolutely….. let’s get the show on the road!

Ok my friend…. here we go again!

Well my friend as you can probably imagine I’ve had the experience to train with many different personal trainers in the past, but none of them came close to the experience I had training with “Vanessa Cambria” in regards to overall knowledge and attitude! Gee Nino that’s really a bold statement you just made here…. can you back it up by giving “me” some examples to prove your statement as being true?

My friend I had a feeling that you were going to say that…… it would be “my” pleasure to give you a few examples, as why I say this to you today! Listen my friend I’m not at all saying that the trainers that I trained with in the past, didn’t have the knowledge or the attitude when it came to doing their job effectively! My friend what I meant by making such a bold statement like that to you here….. is simply this!

My friend are you listening?

Yeah Nino I’m listening….. go ahead!

Ok my friend what I meant by the other trainers not having the knowledge or attitude that Vanessa showed “me”, was in regards to training “me” effectively with “my” disability! My friend I’m going to give you an example here of what I mean by that….. ok! Ok Nino because I think I’m starting to understand now, about what you meant by making that bold statement to “me” earlier!

Great my friend! My friend because by “me” making that bold statement to you earlier on does not at all mean that the other trainers that I trained with in the past, weren’t good trainers they were all good in their own ways until it came down to them figuring out how to train “my” legs effectively! My friend and that’s one area where Vanessa showed “me” that she alot more knowledge and a very positive attitude, when it came to figuring out how to train “my “legs in the most effective way possible where I wouldn’t be intimidated by the exercise or the difficulty of it as well!

Ok my friend that being said…. now I’ll give you an example of how Vanessa differed from all the other trainers I had in the past concerning training “my” legs …. ok!

Ok Nino great….. let’s hear them!

Ok my friend as far as the other trainers I had in the past when it came down to them training “my” legs, they we’re very hesitate in pushing “me” to where my legs actually felt like they were being worked! Gee Nino could you give “me” an example of what you mean by that? My friend absolutely….. because I really want you to understand what I’m trying to say to you today, between how these other trainers went on training “me” and the way that Vanessa did!

Well my friend what mean by these other trainers I had in the past being very hesitate when it down to them training “my” legs…..is simply this! My friend they simply did not allow “me” to be challenged by pushing any serious weight wether it be doing squats, leg presses or leg extentions!

Ok Nino I think I know what you mean now?

Great my friend…. let’s here it!

Well Nino it sure sounds like to “me” that these other trainers that you trained with in the past here, were kinda of playing the sympathy card with you when they went about training legs with you! My friend your absolutely right….. I couldn’t have said it any better myself! My friend the last thing I want to happen is to have a trainer show “me” sympathy when training ”me” especially “my” legs! My friend as your now aware of I want to be challenged with different things in “my” life in regards to “my” disability….. not held back!

Gee Nino I sure don’t blame you one bit…. because I would definitely feel the same way if I were in your position! Nino something tells “me” that Vanessa was the total opposite of playing the sympathy card, when it came down to training your legs….. am I right! Gee my friend your definitely on a roll today…. because your absolutely right again! My friend Vanessa had absolutely no intentions whatsoever to play the sympathy card with “me”, when training “my” legs or any other bodypart for that matter! My friend however she did play a card that I’m very familiar with by now!

Gee Nino what card is that??

Well my friend it’s quite simple here what card…. The “No Excuses” card! My friend let “me” give you an example of what I mean here….. ok!

Ok Nino go ahead I’m listening….. I can’t wait to hear this one!

Well my friend you don’t have to wait a second longer today…. because here’s how Vanessa went about training “my” legs, compared to these other trainers I had in the past! Well my friend for starters on leg day Vanessa would tell “me” firsthand on the exercises that we were going to be doing, and how she wanted them done! My friend so I could stay focused and most important make “No Excuses” for myself whatsoever, in why I couldn’t do them in the way that she wanted!

Ok my friend that being said…. are you ready for “me” to share with you a typical leg day workout with Vanessa??

Gee Nino absolutely…. I’ve been dying to hear this all day!

Ok my friend here comes “my” “No Excuses” leg day workout with Vanessa that’s guaranteed, to make your legs hurt in a good way!

Ok my friend I’m going to tell you two methods of training that Vanessa used with “me”, when training “my” legs that your very familiar with …. ok!

Ok Nino…. I’m all ears!

Ok my friend because this is going tell you without any doubt whatsoever today, why I LOVED training with Vanessa compared to all the other trainers I had in the past! Well my friend a typical leg day workout with Vanessa included doing squats, leg presses and leg extentions…. with “me” performing none other than ALL “Super Sets” and “Drop Sets” with each and every set that I did!

My friend and let “me” tell you something I just LOVED feeling the incredible burn I had throughout “my” entire leg, it was even hard for “me” to stand upright at times! My friend and I knew right then that Vanessa Cambria was not at all playing the sympathy card with “me”….. like all the other trainers had!

Gee Nino it sure sounds like to “me” that when Vanessa trained you…. she was not at all looking at your physical disability! My friend that’s exactly the point that I’m trying to get you to understand today! My friend Vanessa was NOT at all looking at “my” disability when training “me” and that right there, showed “me” that Vanessa was without a doubt the right trainer for “me”!

My friend and for that I thank God so much for bringing Vanessa into “my” life! My friend because she really motivated “me” beyond like any of the other trainers I had in the past, and most important she made realize that there were absolutely “No Excuses” for “me” why I couldn’t train legs like anyone else who didn’t have to deal a physical disability!

Gee Nino it sure sounds like to “me” that you and Vanessa were really able to bond well together! My friend your absolutely…. right! My friend just let “me” say one more thing to you today about ”my” experience I had training with Vanessa……. which is simpy this!

My friend I consider Vanessa out of all the other trainers I had in the past to be in a league all by herself, when it comes down to really wanting to help a person change their body and atittude about themsevles! My friend Vanessa has accomplished that with “me” simply by “me” making “No Excuses” about “my” disability….. thanks Vanessa for the attitude adjustment in “my” life!

Gee Nino I think that I’m going to hire Vanessa myself here! My friend now your talking “my” language…. because Vanessa’s only a click away, as her own website is linked to mine!

Great Nino….. I’m going to go checkout Vanessa’s website right now! My friend I promise you that you’ll be completely satisfied with Vanessa as your trainer…. “No Excuses”!!

My Thoughts On Doing “Arnold Presses”

Hey Nino….. what’s up? Hey my friend you scared “me”…… I actually wasn’t expecting you for another hour yet! Gee Nino I’m sorry I didn’t mean to scare you….. are you ok? My friend that’s ok…. I forgive you! My friend as a matter of fact I was just thinking about you…. and I turn around and there you are in living color!

Gee Nino I’m sorry that I didn’t call you first to see if it was ok, for “me” to come a little early today! My friend please stop right there…. ok! Gee Nino something tells “me” that your not to happy with “me” of what I just said to you….. am I right in assuming that?

Gee my friend it’s like I’ve been telling you for weeks now… which is simply this! My friend your really starting to think along the same lines as myself more and more each and every week now, because your absolutely right I’m not to happy with you at all right now! Gee Nino I knew that I should have called first, I’ll come back in an hour….. ok!

Ok my friend hold on right there! My friend would you please have a seat because I think it’s time once again to remind you of something, that I’ve been telling you since we’ve been getting together here….. which is simply this!

My friend are you listening?

Yeah Nino I have my ears wide open…. go ahead!

Ok my friend because I’m really hoping that I won’t have to be saying this to you… anymore after today! My friend how many times do I have to say this to you before it sinks into your head…… I could never be unhappy with you! My friend also would you please STOP apologizing to “me”, for absolutely no good reason whatsoever! Gee Nino I had a feeling that you were going to say that to “me” again!

So my friend does that mean then that it has finally sinked into your head now that there is absolutely no need for you, to ever have to apologize to “me” for anything whatsoever ever again! Nino as I sit here today I promise you that I’ll never apologize to you for anything ever again, for as long as we’re together here….. ok! My friend you don’t know how happy you just made “me” right at this very moment, by you promising ”me” that! My friend just keep one thing in back of your mind….. ok!

Ok Nino sure….. what is it?

My friend always remember that your a huge reason why “my” mission that God has “me” on today, is turning out to be a huge success so far! My friend like I’ve been telling you over and over again for months now…. which is simply this! My friend you’ve been helping “me come up with so many important topics of discussion so far, that many people in our society today are struggling with and are in desperate need of some guidance on!

Furthermore my friend your also helping ”me” by you playing a huge part in each and every discussion that we’ve had so far! My friend together we’ve been able to help teach these people how to deal with their certain issues that their struggling with today, with a more positive attitude and approach! Gee Nino I hope this is not a dumb question but just how exactly are we teaching these people to use a more positive attitude and approach, in handling some issues that their struggling with today in their lives?

My friend it’s quite simple how! My friend simply by us teaching them in making absolutely ”No “Excuses” any longer for themselves today, why they cannot overcome their issues that their struggling with successfully!

Gee Nino you don’t know how happy you just made “me” right now….. by you saying that to “me”! Nino I had absolutely no idea until now that I was helping you this much to help all these people come up, with a solution to their issues simply by them using a more “No Excuse”  attitude instead of them making excuses why they can’t!

Well my friend I’m glad your finally realizing just how important you are to “my” mission, in hopes of it being carried out successfully! My friend also it’s like I’ve been telling you too God brought us together not only so we can help people, but also for you to keep “me” out of trouble each and every week here!

So my friend that being said I guess we both can be happy today knowing that we’re helping alot people, and at the same time your continuing to keep “me” out of trouble by us discussing all of these important topics lately! My friend this also means that we can both continue on being happy today, while we discuss our next topic together this week…. ok!

Ok Nino definitely…. I’m ready to continue to put on “my” happy face today!

Well Nino that being said…. I have some news to tell you today that I just know is going to make that smile on your face, that you have right now even bigger! Gee my friend I don’t know if I can smile bigger than this right now….. “my” cheeks hurt! Well Nino I have a strong feeling the news that I’m about to share with you today, is without doubt going to make your cheeks hurt even more!

Ok my friend so tell “me” what’s your great news that’s going to make ”my” cheeks even hurt more, than they already are from smiling?

Ok Nino but before I tell the news…. let “me” just say that “my” biceps are still sore from doing all those “Drop Sets” with you last week! My friend that’s awesome because I’ll be totally honest with you, “my” biceps are still sore as well……. and that only tells “me” one thing!

Gee Nino…… what might that be?

Well my friend it’s quite simple why we’re both still a little with our biceps, after a week has gone by from training them! My friend basically we worked our biceps doing all those “Drop Sets” to pure exhaustion where as a result, we were barely able to get 15 reps on our last set of seated dumbell curls using ONLY 10lbs dumbells…. remember!

Yeah Nino I sure do…. because if I recall I was only able to get 8 reps with those 10lbs dumbells on “my” last set! Well my friend now you know why they call it doing “Drop Sets” simply because you end up finishing your set with such a light weight, however you can’t finish with the same number of reps of when you first started!

Ok my friend now that we both understand the philosophy behind doing “Drop Sets”….. what’s your news that you want to share with “me” today?

Well Nino as you know our discussions that we’ve had together here in the last couple of weeks, have been primarily about how I’ve been able to really step up ”my” training lately by “me”coming up with all of these new twists to put into ”my” program! Yeah my friend I know and I couldn’t be more proud of you! My friend hold on one minute here! My friend by any chance…. would the news that you have for “me” today, possibly be about another new twist that you’ve put into your training program?

Gee Nino I’m sorry to disappoint you today but “my” news has nothing to do with “me” on having another new training twist for you! Gee my friend I was really hoping today that your news had something to do with regarding your training, because I can’t tell you how much I’ve enjoyed our discussions on them latley! Well Nino hold on to that thought because “my” news that I have for you is still regarding “my” training! Nino it’s actually a new exercise that I’ve put into “my” shoulder routine, that I would like to have your thoughts on today if it’s ok with you!

Gee my friend absolutely are you kidding “me”! My friend you just made “my” smile today even bigger, by telling “me” that right now!

So my friend tell “me”…. what’s the name of this new shoulder exercise called that your doing?

Well Nino something tells “me” that your going to be very familiar with the name of this particuliar shoulder exercise…. that I’m about to reveal to you today! Gee my friend if you don’t mind “me” asking you…. why do say that? Gee Nino it should be really of no surprise to you why I say this! Nino simply because of “me” looking of how thick and rounded your shoulders are! My friend thanks I really appreciate those nice comments regarding “my” shoulders…. they mean alot to me” coming from you!

My friend and let “me” say to you I just didn’t dream and wish for “me” to have these thick rounded shoulders that you see here planted on “my” body, it took ”me” years of hard work and dedication in the gym to allow “my” shoulders to get this way!

Ok my friend that being said enough of the suspense….. what’s this shoulder exercise called?

Ok Nino I guess I can reveal it to you now it’s called “Arnold Presses”….. have you heard or done them before in your shoulder routine?

My friend did you just say “Arnold Presses”?

Yeah Nino I sure did…. why is something wrong with “me” doing “Arnold Presses”?

My friend absolutely not are you kidding “me”! My friend I just think “Arnold Presses” are definitely without a doubt a great exercise to do, to help you develop those thick rounded shoulders that your looking for ”big time” today!

My friend that being said again….. it would be “my” pleasure today to give you “my” thoughts on doing “Arnold Presses”! Gee Nino awesome I can’t wait to get your thoughts on this GREAT shoulder excercise, because I’ve been doing alot of “Arnold Presses” in “my” shoulder routine lately!

Hey Nino would you mind if I take some notes today on doing “Arnold Presses”?

Nino because I really think its only going to help “me” understand how “Arnold Presses” should be done! Furthermore Nino so I can make sure that I get the full benefits from doing them right, and most important to reduce the chances of “me” causing serious injury to “my” shoulders as well!

My friend absolutely not…. that’s a great idea! My friend as a matter of fact I was going to tell you to get your pen and pad ready today…. simply for this reason! My friend “Arnold Presses” are not an easy movement to do! My friend so I want to make sure that you’ve been doing them right, so you don’t end up injuring your shoulders in the process! My friend I know all to well how it feels to have a shoulder injury, because I’ve been dealing with tendenitus in right shoulder for about a year now!

Gee Nino how have you been working out with having tendentitus in your shoulder lately, let alone walk on your crutches as well? Well my friend I’m going to lie to you here….. it’s been a real struggle for “me” lately to do both! Gee Nino I give you alot credit because I don’t know of any person today who has to deal with, all of the physical obstacles that your faced with and still manage to carry on with a very positive attitude!

My friend please don’t give “me” the credit! My friend God definitely deserves all the credit and more for giving “me” that “No Excuses” attitude to keep going, no matter what I’m dealing with in “my” life today! My friend as your fully aware of that “No Excuse” attitude is a huge part why God has “me” on this mission with you today! My friend so I can help you also develop that same attitude in your life today! My friend just let “me” say I think your definitely well on your way today, in developing your own “No Excuse” attitude in your life as well!

Gee Nino I think your absolutely right….. and let “me” just say that I couldn’t have done it without your help! My friend and you can bet that I’m going to keep helping you develop that “No Excuses” attitude, until your able to apply it in every area of your life today!

Ok my friend I really think that we should get moving on to discussing “Arnold ”Presses” today, because I definitely want to make sure that your doing them right so you don’t injure your shoulders….. ok!

Ok Nino thanks….. I really appreciate all the tips that you’ve been giving so far in regards to “my” training lately! My friend absolutely NO thanks is necessary! My friend remember I’m only doing the job that God has instructed “me” to do here week after week, and that only is…. to help you not hurt you!

Ok my friend that being said again….. let’s make sure now that your not hurting yourself when your doing these “Arnold Presses”…… ok!

Ok Nino I’m ready….. let’s go!

Great my friend….. here we go again!

Well my friend I feel the best way for “me” to make absolutely sure today that your doing your “Arnold “Pressses” right, is to give you two rules that I’ve made and followed to a tee so I could greatly reduce the chances of “me” of seriously injuring my shoulders!

Hey Nino before you give “me” your two rules today…… could I ask you something?

My friend absolutely….. what would you like know?

Well Nino I’m curious to know…. how you ended up with tendititus in your right shoulder? My friend I was waiting for you to ask “me” that…. and let just say that it wasn’t due to the fact that I was doing “my” “Arnold Presses” wrong! My friend I truly believe it’s due to all the years of training that I’ve put “my” body through, and also being a powerlifter for a short time as well!

Oh ok Nino I guess I’m ready to hear your first rule now…. to doing “Arnold Presses” the right way!

Ok my friend…. listen up because here it comes!

Ok Nino once again I’m all ears and ready to write!

My friend rule #1….. use a weight that you can handle safely to ensure that your using the proper form! My friend and what I mean by that… is simply this! My friend I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen people at “my” gym, when their doing “Arnold Presses”, use way too much weight! My friend and as a result of that their unable to turn the dumbells inward when their coming down with all that weight, because the whole key to making “Arnold Presses” effective is that complete turn of your hands! Gee Nino I really think that it was good idea for “me”  in deciding to take some notes today on doing “Arnold Presses”! 

Gee My friend….. why’s that?

Well Nino it’s quite simple because I definitely haven’t been following… your first rule at all! My friend I’m almost afraid to ask you….. how much weight have you been using? Well Nino I think your smile is about to get a little smaller today….. because I’ve using about 60lbs! Oh my friend…. that is not smart one bit! My friend simply because that’s a good way for you to injure your rotator cuff “big time”! My friend I’ve seen it happen to people way too many times and I definitely don’t want to see that happen to you too here! My friend because your training lately as we both know, has been going extremely well!

Gee Nino trust “me” I know that! Nino and I definitely without a doubt want to keep these positive gains going, in “my” training for as long as I can! My friend and I definitely would love to see those positive gains, in your training continue as well here! 

Ok my friend that being said….. are you ready for “my” second and last rule today?

Gee Nino absolutely…. because I have a strong feeling that I haven’t been following your second rule either in doing “Arnold Presses” correctly! Well my friend I guess only time will tell if that holds true….. right! Gee Nino I had a feeling that you were going to say that to “me” again….. let’s here it!

Ok my friend rule #2 is…. DO NOT arch your back when your lifting those 60lbs dumbells over your head! My friend the main reason why I say this to you is because I can’t tell you how many people have come up to ”me”, in the past after doing their set complaining about their lower back hurting them!

Gee Nino it’s funny that you should say this because since I’ve been using 60lbs dumbells to do “my” “Arnold Presses”, I have been arching “my” back quite a bit and as result of that “my” lower back has been causing “me” some pain as well lately! Oh my friend once again….. that is NOT smart! Gee Nino trust “me” I know that now…… “big time” thanks to you! Gee Nino and you can bet the next time I do “my” Arnold Presses” I’m going to do two things different from now on, without “me” making any excuses whatsoever!

Gee my friend….. what might those two different things be??

Gee Nino have you forgotton already in what they are…. after your the “one” that came up with them in the first place! Gee my friend I’m sorry we’ve discussed so much today on doing “Arnold Presses” right, that “my” mind is drawing a blank here! My friend could you please refresh “my” memory? Gee Nino since you put it that way….. sure I will! Nino because your absolutely right…. we have discussed a ton of info today on doing “Arnold Presses” right, that I would even have trouble remembering your two rules as well!

Gee my friend thanks….. I really appreciate it!

Gee Nino no problem after all that you’ve done for “me” so far….. I think that it’s time I do something for you! Ok Nino that being said…. here are your two rules again that I’m going to start following when I’m doing “my” “Arnold Presses” from now on!

Ok my friend I have “my” ears on…. let’s hear them again!

Ok Nino first of all I’m going to drop the weight in half from using 60lbs to 30lbs! Nino so I make absolutely sure that I’m able to use proper form and turn my hands inward, when I’m bringing the weight down to “eye level”! Nino second of all and most important I’m going to keep “my” back from arching so much, and keep it planted to the pad on the seated bench! Oh my friend your absolutely right! My friend now it’s all coming back to “me” and your definitely speaking ”my” language now!

Gee Nino…. what language is that?

Gee my friend it’s quite simple…… Nino’s “No Excuse” language to doing ”Arnold Presses”right….. without you hearing that “click” in your rotator cuff! My friend I only have one more thing to say to you! Gee Nino what’s that? My friend keep “pressing on” toward that “Dream Body”…… “No Excuses”!

Gee Nino thanks for those words of encouragement! Nino that being said…. you can bet that I will keep on “pressing on” towards acheiving that body of “my” dreams that I’ve been working so hard for in getting lately! My friend all I can say to that is simply this! My friend now your really talking “my” language keep on keeping on….. “No Excuses”!!
