Wesley Vissers builds an Arnold-style chest with Hany Rambod

When the “Golden Era” king of Classic Physique, Wesley Vissers, teams up with bodybuilding’s master coach, Hany Rambod, you can expect some incredible workouts ahead. In a July 31, 2026 YouTube video, legendary bodybuilding coach Rambod guides Vissers through an intense Arnold-style chest workout ahead of the 2026 Olympia stage. Rambod's secret: quality over weight—a philosophy that built Schwarzenegger.

Best known for winning the 2024 and 2026 Arnold Classic, Vissers is often compared to bodybuilding legend Arnold Schwarzenegger. Vissers mirrors Schwarzenegger not just in physique but in training philosophy: controlled reps over ego lifting. His coach, Rambod, emphasizes the importance of quality contractions over heavy lifting, alongside strategic angles and controlled reps.

This would help Vissers build the full, round “3D” chest associated with Schwarzenegger. Rambod guided Vissers through a series of upper-chest workouts that included:

  • Deep stretches
  • Standing multi-fly machine
  • Power Smith dual upper chest machine
  • Lower chest fly machine
  • Cable crossover machine

According to Fitness Volt, Rambod’s workout philosophy was to maintain a balance for Vissers. He didn’t want him to go too heavy or light. Instead, he encouraged Vissers to feel every machine out and understand his body and workout goals, eventually working his way up to failure.

Although “The Dutch Oak” is yet to win the Olympia title, Vissers is preparing intensely, making adjustments to his workouts and physique. He posts constant updates on his progress via his Instagram account for fans to see.

Vissers often posts his workout routines on social media, such as his legendary back, chest, and legs workouts.

His personal coach, Rambod, has been consistently guiding him through each workout, preparing him for his next win.

How Hany Rambod helps Wesley Vissers build his legendary physique

If Rambod is a sculptor, Vissers is his personal sculpture. He has been guiding and encouraging Vissers, helping him refine his Classic Physique look and prepare for the upcoming 2026 Olympia stage.

Vissers often shares his training sessions with Rambod on his YouTube channel. His Golden Era aesthetics, combined with Rambod’s signature high-intensity training, are all that Vissers follows religiously.

In a YouTube video shared on his channel, Vissers highlighted the leg workout that he followed with Rambod. The leg workout included:

  • Lying hamstring curls
  • Belt squats
  • Machine hack squats
  • Nordic squats
  • Machine adductors
  • Dumbbell lunges

"Legs have been a priority throughout the off-season and now in preparation. More volume, more sets, higher intensity - and always at the beginning of the cycle so I can put all my energy into them,” Vissers explained.

Do you think Rambod’s legendary methods can help Vissers challenge for the 2026 Mr. Olympia title?
