The “double whammy birthday sale”

Dear reader,

Oh my my my!

As I sit here, I’m suffering from a “double whammy”, my friend – and what do I mean by that?

Well, the first is the injured thumb that occured a couple of days ago. It’s well and truly on the road to ACTIVE recovery, but it’s still not a 100% … UGGGH! But then again, I’m recovering quicker than most folks would on this, so it’ll back to doing “regular” workouts soon.

And the second?

Well, I’m feeling like a Mack truck ran over me, my friend.

Sort of like I felt when I first climbed THAT hill in China, the same hill that I can mosey on up now without breaking a sweat.

And why do I feel this way?

The workout I did yesterday, my friend, and if you missed it, it’s right there on the blog. Oh my. I’ll be doing a variant of that today as well but perhaps at far lower intensity. We’ll see, but for now …

Yes, this cat is turning 37 “today”, and to celebrate all this, I’m doing something which I usually never ever do, which is to have yet another sale only a couple of weeks after the last one (which was a huge, huge hit by the way).

And I’ll go one BETTER this time.

If I recall, I offered the 0 Excuses Fitness System at a discount the last time around during the “post Christmas” sale, and a lot of you stepped and JUMPED to the plate, and good on you for doing that, my friend.

And now, I’m going one better.

I’m offering you a FLAT 25% discount on ALL my  products for TWO days.

That’s right, this sale will last until Jan 6, so pull up your socks and get on this NOW, my friend. You never know – I might just have to pull the sale ahead of time depending on reader feedback. Don’t particularly want the server crashing as it did the last time around, hehe.

Enter in the coupon code “DOUBLEWHAMMY” when you get to the checkout page, and you should be able to avail of the discount.

Here’s the product page – http://0excusesfitness.com/products/

Have at!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

P.S. – My little girl is going bonkers over this as well , and she’s just 4. She’s running up and down the room hollering “Shoulders like Boulders” while I type this. The energy is CONTAGIOUS, my friend. Oh yes it is. Get in while the going is good and while this lasts – http://0excusesfitness.com/products/

Workout update!

Dear reader,

Well, given what I said about the state of my thumb yesterday, you’d think today would be a rest day, or perhaps even an “easy” day, eh?

Not a chance, my friend. Not a chance.

This cat made a vow to himself years ago to do something everyday, come rain, hail, shine or sprained thumbs – and so he did.

And guess what – it sure as heck wasn’t EASY by any standards.

And guess what else. Though I was advised to “splint” the thumb (and dont get me wrong – it was indeed well intentioned advice and would have done no harm) – I didn’t – and right now, it’s about 50% on the way to recovery.

And amazingly enough, it’s NOT by either resting the thumb or by doing nothing at all.

Sounds amazing, I know, but ’tis true, my friend. ‘Tis true.

Anyway, as for today’s casualty list?

Well, no real casualties today, hehe, but I probably won’t be able to bend over too well due to what I did differently today – well, not too well, at least – and NO – it’s NOT what pops up in mind instantly when you read that, haha.

In fact what I did today to really get me sore in the posterior (and then all over) didn’t take more than 10 minutes, if even that.

And most of that was nothing but deep, rhythmic breathing.

No, it didnt involve a single pushup.

No pull-ups. No Hindus. No squats. Nothing of that nature, my friend. Nothing at all (although I did do about 250 squats this morning, but thats another tale).

Nah – what I did today got me BUZZED – and as an aside, my forearms seem to be PULSATING with a life of their own despite NOT having done ANY, I repeat ANY upper body work.

See if you can guess what I did, my friend. I mention it as a “secret weapon” (of sorts) in 0 Excuses Fitness, but it,  like a lot of other hidden keys mentioned therein is usually overlooked.

The 0 Excuses Fitness System

Bad mistake, but I’ll get into that later.

For now – it’s “adios” – but oh wait.

Before I go, remember to stay tuned for a HUGE, HUGE announcement tomorrow – one that’ll probably blow yer socks off, because I’ve never ever done it before – not at that level anyway.

More on that tomorrow. In the meantime, if you workout today – and you darn well SHOULD – make it an awesome one!

Best,

Rahul

2nd January workout

Dear reader,

Well, was a heck of a day indeed in terms of workouts!

Woke up feeling GREAT – as I usually do – and dived straight into my new project which is an advanced fitness manual; and I MEAN advanced, my friend.

In fact some of the exercises I’m going to be putting out in this new book are SO advanced – that they WILL kick even most experienced gymnasts and bodyweight trainees in the can if done right, my friend. Oh yeah they will.

King Kong Fitness is what I’ve got it named, and with darn good reason. You’ll build shoulders akin to a male silverback gorilla if you do these exercises, and thats just the shoulders.

You’ll also build scary levels of SUPERHUMAN grip strength as well as core endurance and strength from Cain, my friend – believe me, though what I’ve taught you thus far in 0 Excuses Fitness is more than sufficient for the vast majority of folks out there, there is always that tiny “crazy” minority that wants to take things to the ultimate level and then some.

And if you’re part of that select band, well, be on the lookout for King Kong Fitness. I’m done with the book but am waiting for Cindy to return from Hunan province so I can get the videos done as well and release the whole package.

And today’s workout went as follows –

  • My  usual 0 Excuses Fitness workout.
  • A jaunt up and down the hill
  • King Kong exercises both BEFORE, after, and DURING the jaunt, and no – NOT A SINGLE pushup or pull-up made it into this section, and yet I was hammered with each set being finished in – get this – less than 10-15 seconds.
  • Pull-ups and various other “core” toughies (some of which are mentioned in 0 Excuses Fitness) before the whole deal, and after …

Well, let’s just say that there was nothing after a) because I had already done more than plenty, but b) because I suffered a nasty thumb sprain towards the end of all of it.

Probably more fatigue than anything else that caused that (I don’t want to get into the exact reason) – and I mention this in 0 Excuses Fitness as well. Be very careful when you’re doing anything that involves the thumb directly.

Easy to “pop it in and out” without realizing it and messing up tendons etc – OUCH!

Luckily being the grip fanatic I am the pain lasted about a couple of hours after which it started to abate. I’m back to typing at full speed now, but I’ll probably go easy on the grip stuff until tomorrow at least.

See how that goes. HA!

And that, my dear friend, is that for now. Be on the outlook for King Kong Fitness coming your way sometime soon – and in the meantime, be sure and build a SOLID foundation right here – http://0excusesfitness.com/0excusesfitnessystem/.

Best,

Rahul

 

Work(out) smart!

Dear reader,

A couple of months ago, a reader from India contacted me for some “fitness tips”.

This dude had been doing pushups etc for a while, and going on long walks etc to lose weight – and judging by his “before” and “after” pictures – all I can tell him is a) well done, bud and b) you’re 80% there.

Trouble was, the remaining 20% was what was causing him consternation.

You know what I’m referring to, don’t you?

That “last” bit of weight – or the “real” strength gains that seem to take forever to come – or don’t show up at all (as was the case with this dude).

Anyway, the first thing I told him to do was to sign up for my daily list which he did, and he purchased the 0 Excuses Fitness System shortly thereafter. Smart dude. Made the right choice.

And today’s email is about some MOST interesting feedback I received from him – so interesting in fact that I’ve posted it on the testimonials page I’ve recently put up on the site right HERE – http://0excusesfitness.com/testimonials/.

(This page is constantly being updated, so do check back – for whatever reason I never quite got around to “collating” all the numerous emails etc that I receive on this, but am doing so “by and by” now).

And here is what he said:

This is an amazing book on fitness that has the right combination of intensity and intelligence. These aren’t soul crushing workouts or weight training, but they certainly aren’t a walk in the park either. The word that could best describe these workouts is SMART. It helps you play with your bodyweight and get yourself super fit.

Well, well, well. Interesting indeed, and pretty “well” worded if I might say so myself, hehe – or perhaps I should say “interesting choice of words”, but either way, he gets his point across pretty well!

Yes – these workouts are NOT a walk in the park.

Yes – these workouts are NOT “soul” destroying “marathons to the death”, hehe. In other words, there’s no “long and drawn” out pavement pounding or other nonsense that we’ve become accustomed to hearing in terms of cardio, and certainly NO “3 sets of 10 with 5 minutes breaks in between” rot that we’ve been “fed” in terms of strength building.

But the most interesting part of his comment is as such “helps you play with your bodyweight”. Very interestingly worded indeed, my friend – and when you think about it, it’s TRUE.

NONE of my workouts are boring – in fact the sheer variety of exercises contained in the 0 Excuses Fitness System makes it nigh impossible to even START to get bored, and truth be told each one of the exercises can be done in many different ways as well.

So its FUN – and folks have a tendency to stick with what is fun – and if what is fun works – well – you’ve got your cake and are EATING it too my friend.

And last, but not least, I couldn’t agree more with the smart part. Yes, it’s smart to accomplish MORE in 15 minutes or less than what the vast majority of trainees accomplish (or don’t) in their long drawn out training sessions.

Of course, there’s nothing wrong with the latter option if one prefers the “treadmill to nowhere”, but if it were me, I knew the choice I’d make.

I’d take the swifter route that works BETTER.

Simple enough, my friend – and AMEN to that, even if I say so myself!

All for now – happy 2018 again – it promises to be a WILD one!

Best,

Rahul

P.S. – Yes, it’s far more productive to work smart and accomplish more than “put in the slog and accomplish little” – and the same mentality holds true for workouts. Find out more about “smart” workouts right HERE – http://0excusesfitness.com/0excusesfitnessystem/
