Vincent Iuzzolino grew up in a blue-collar family in Long Island, NY, and began lifting weights at the age of 12, quickly becoming obsessed with training. While he wrestled and played baseball in his youth, lifting and building strength took precedence, leading him to bulk up from 110 pounds in high school to 230 pounds by the age of 22. However, years of heavy lifting and PED use resulted in muscle tears, which shifted his focus to competitive fighting. Vincent worked as a union electrician in NYC for 20 years, but at 39, he began training others on the side. This side hustle quickly became more lucrative than his construction job, leading him to pursue it full-time. Recognized for his deep knowledge, Vincent struggled to share it with a broader audience until he hired a social media editor. With the editor's help, a casual conversation was filmed, edited, and posted on Instagram, skyrocketing his follower count from a few thousand to over 100,000 in just five days. This success led to a new venture in online training, where Vincent continues to thrive.
