Written 44 years after opening his world-famous Vince’s Gym, ‘Unleashing The Wild Physique’ is a collection of Vince Gironda’s thoughts concerning every aspect of bodybuilding culture.
From training and nutrition, all the way to steroids and women’s bodybuilding, Vince leaves no stone unturned.
Unlike many training texts that have been written purely on theory and speculation, Vince’s training philosophies have been molded from years of experience in the gym, and much trial and error.
Vince’s attitude towards bodybuilding is very much a dying one.
Rather than being concerned with building as much size as possible, Vince believed bodybuilding should be about creating the most aesthetically pleasing physique possible.
So whilst large muscles were important, it should never be at the expense of shape and symmetry, which he reveals to great extent within ‘Unleashing The Wild Physique’.
A common misconception is that Vince was only interested in the high-level competitive bodybuilder, but by his own admission, nothing could be further from the truth.
He was interested in every bodybuilder, novice and pro, young and old, male and female.
So whether you are just starting out on your bodybuilding career, or you have several decades of training under your belt, then this book contains valuable information that will help you succeed.

Simply put Vince Girondo was like the Bruce Lee of bodybuilding this man was far a head of his time The input that he had on bodybuilding and nutrition We’re right on the button because he applied everything he new to him self before he applied it to everybody else he used himself as a Guinea pig not even Joe Wieder couldn’t hold a candle to him it’s a pity that a lot of people are taking credit for things he proved on himself the wild physique is everything I expected and a lot more The book is A number one best seller

Great book, it brings me back to the 80s and 90s. But alot of the photos were to dark to see the instructions. The transfer needs to be better and also the cover of the book that is displayed is not what I received. So a little deceiving of what to expect. Other than that it is a great book.
Robert I.
I had this book when it first came out. I'm glad I got it back. The Wild Physique is great book. Vince Gironda was a pioneer in bodybuilding. Great book.

I loved the book and learning more about Vince Gironda - he was years ahead of his time and his guidance on health and nutrition changed my life for the better.
Jack M.
Very informative. To the point.
Glen M.
Vince is one of a kind and this book helps define his uniqueness.

A friend of mine turned me onto Vince Gironda earlier in the year. I began watching videos breaking down his methods and eventually decided I needed to actually read his work. He talks in a no-nonsense way and dispels a lot of
myths about fitness as well as providing incredible insights into achieving results. A must read for anyone interested in sculpting their physique.

I’ve only recently learned about who Vince Gironda was, which led me to his book The Wild Physique. It cannot be found in publication, without paying a high premium. The chapters, explanations and illustrations are extremely helpful in doing the exercises correctly. What I read today are exercises that do not reflect the proper form and explanation to support the movements. Thanks NSP for keeping this information accessible. I look forward to collecting more of Mr. Gironda’s publications you have available.

Very informative. Had some key information that has turned out to be very helpful.

The Bodybuilding Bible
Vince Gironda is simply magnificent. Known for his legendary gruff demeanor, Gironda represented all that is true in bodybuilding. Much of his knowledge and experience is shared in this book.
Glitzy magazines will sell you on an ever-changing, monthly plethora of pills, potions, and lotions; all "guaranteed" to work. They jump at every new pseudo-science product, hyping as the next best thing while failing to acknowledge that their spokesmodel is juiced to the gills. Miracle diets. Blasting your biceps. One month 100 rep training is in vogue, the next Heavy Duty (i.e.: Heavy 'Doody') Mike Mentzer low-rep training. What is a poor soul to do?
Follow Gironda. He was Paleo or Keto before Crossfit was ever a thought. Liver tablets and Amino Acids work. His training methods are legendary, and are continually being demonstrated in the scientific community. He simply was light years ahead (and in some ways, still is) of anybody else.
The truth is, bodybuilding became corrupted or perverted with controlled substances. Performance-enhancing drugs flooded bodybuilding and turned it into pharmaceutical roulette than living and breathing art. Magazine and supplement companies push their wares without acknowledging the elephant in the room: take the drugs away, and the "champ" shrivels to nothing. Gironda is tried and true. Leave the glitz and glamour to the frauds; to the pin cushions. Do it natural. Do it Vince's way.
