Knuckle pushups VS fingertip pushups
- Jury's out - or not really! Hehe.

Two of the most talked about pushups – at least if you’re into REAL training, martial arts and such?

Definitely the knuckle pushup – and then the fingertip pushup.

Both have their benefits, but I lean FIRMLY towards the latter.

And from the horse’s mouth, readers of the book – specifically a “tough as nails” ex cop from NYC had THIS to say about the latter –

(I’m paraphrasing, but his verbatim words have been posted many times here)

Our karate instructor used to make us do them on our knuckles, but your fingertip pushups are FAR harder to do!

I then asked him how many he could do, that he should work up to 25, and he said “he wasn’t as good as me”.

That was then, I’m sure Charles has been hitting it HARD – have you my friend?

Long time no hear,write back, let me know.

Anyway, first off all- well, we took a short video on it. The daughter was jumping up and down about tiger bend pushups “you’re stalking!” she keeps saying – so it looks if you do it right, but this video doesn’t show tiger bends.

Thats an advanced exercise – hey, wait – knuckle and fingertip are too advanced for most people, ex martial artists included!

So I figured we’ll work up to things – I threw a “half tiger bend” in there, but only because the daugher was HOLLERING, hehe.

But I’ll do a proper video on that one later, it deserves it.

For now – well, first off, the video –


For those of you that like to READ, as opposed to watch videos, yours truly falls into that category, so for me?

Look, knuckle pushups are great.

If you make a fist tight enough (and you should) they do tax the forearms some, but NOWHERE near what fingertip pushups do in proper form.

And you can’t take knuckles away to make it harder either …

I’ll take the fingertip pushup anyday – leverage is another reason, the knuckle pushup is basically another “forearm taxing” version of the regular pushup, the fingertip  pushup is an entirely different beast.

Pushup Central covers these in detail, for now, remember, and especially when youre fatigued, make sure there is no slack in the fingers while doing these (and the wrist while doing knuckle pushups) unless you want a nasty ass injury.

The rest is covered in the video … after we took a LOT of the daugher’s basketball class in the form of “shorts”. All great fun, and bedlam.

I pity the teacher, and remember my school (teaching at school) days where the “most fun” part was lifting the kids up to do pull-ups with me. Hehe. I’ll see if I can find the pictures or videos somewhere around for that one!

(Instagram does have me teaching them kids of course, but I haven’t been able to find the “pull-up” section as yet. Will do soon!)

And last, but not least, with all the pumping, preening and posing going on around me as of late, hey, the review for the Sly movie The Specialist comes to mind. (1999 I think?)

Puffed and buffed, preening and posing, the stars move … wait a minute, lets see if I can find the actual review, it was hilarious!

‘The Specialist’ (R)
By Hal Hinson
Washington Post Staff Writer
October 08, 1994

Sylvester Stallone and Sharon Stone. It has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? Stone and Stallone. Stallone and Stone.

Say it loud and there’s music playing. Say it soft and it’s almost like praying. Say it till you’re blue in the face, and it still won’t change the fact that “The Specialist” is obnoxious, narcissistic tripe.

Actually, with all the preening, posing and stretching, it’s hard to know if “The Specialist” is an action movie or an exercise video. Or a porn movie without the sex. Fit, trim and tanned to a luscious shade of gold, the stars offer their bodies to the camera as if they were contestants in a bodybuilding competition. And so entranced are they with their own smashing physiques that you half-expect them to burst into a rendition of “I Feel Pretty.”

The plot is, well, a plot — he’s a demolition expert she hires to avenge her parents’ death. The filmmakers, who include director Luis Llosa, don’t seem to care about it, and certainly we don’t, so why don’t we just skip it.

The picture stars, in addition to the headliners, Rod Steiger, Eric Roberts and James Woods, who rise collectively to about the same level of awful. About the only plus is that at least Woods doesn’t take off his clothes.

I kinda agree with ole Hal, hehe.

And it kinda sums up why I hate doing these silly shirtless pics most guys love, hey, look, bud, if you’re in good shape it’ll show, if not, that will show too – PERIOD.

You can’t hide these thangs, not from the discerning eye especially!

But either way, with all the puffing, buffing, big arms going on, I thought I’d add in a bit of my own –

And thats how I prefer it, lean, mean, FIGHTING MACHINE!

(and the landlady never bought me a computer desk, so I did what I had to do with Madam’s make up station. DONT get me started, damn long story this! Hehe).

Back soon!

PS – Ain’t no company like Toshiba, I’ll say THAT!

Three things you can learn fitness wise from the mighty tiger, and cats in general.
- YES!

YES!

Yus, as Ann Lee would say – hehe.

Although the dog is by far a pet I’d have over a cat, I love cats in general – male lions being an exception to the rule, but I love the TIGER the most – closely followed by the JAGUAR.

Man, that sense of menace I once felt as I looked at a MEAN jaguar, admittedly weak and overfed (the tiger was so overfed it did nothing but sleep – pathetic what zoos do!) – but damn, the way that thing looked at me!

And I love tigers in general – right up there with the grizzly as my favorite animal.

Right down to the “pensive” – or “meditative” look both animals often have, apex predators, top of the food chain, looking out into seemingly nothingness, the TIGER to me exemplfies this the best.

I’ll never forget telling people two tales – one, the tale of my buddy’s kitten “Hunter” so aptly named – they never had any mice, suffice it to say! – jumping out of a 17th floor building in China, NOT a typo either – and despite him rushing down to find it, hoping he wouldn’t find a mess, he found the damn thing bounding away without a care in the world.

Meowing away too.

Unhurt, absolutely, my daughter pooh poohed this by saying so what, thats how cat’s muscles are, something about they literally “fly through the air”.

Which you’ve watched – my second tale even a brief video of a tiger jumping (tigress) up at someone on top of a full grown male bull elephant, them Asian elephants are HUGE – and in bound, roaring and taking two of his fingers along with him, well you know what I mean in terms of FLYING.

Nothing comes close in terms of speed, flexibility and agility – and that is one thing you can learn from cats in general.

Observe how they walk, usually always on tip toes.

Observe how they often stalk their prey – lift one leg up while (before) doing so – even your domestic cat if you observe it will have these habits, it aint got nothing to do with if you feed it or not, its just instinct – they never stop hunting.

Dogs won’t be like wolves in that regard, but cats, like women, hehe, will be CATS, period. No pun either!

Anyway …. fitness wise, well, some of the movements they do.

One, the way the tiger walks – all muscles blending into the CORE if you get my drift, NOT like the bear – although the bear does it’s own thing amazingly well – but the tiger walk is just unique, and it;s covered in Animal Kingdom Workouts. 

Its not only hard as hell to do right – but its damn effective in terms of building a strong, lean and fat free core.

Second, the tigerbend pushup covered in Pushup Central, even most advancd trainees balk at this, I have not given this one enough space!

There’s lots of confusion in terms of how to do this –

To do them get into the pushup (regular) position, form, breathing, all the same as always, except when you lower down your forearms are flat on the floor without your legs moving backwards and you lift from there – you push yourself up I should say, but if you’ve got a huge belly, you’ll feel it lifting. Hehe.

DO that pushup, my friend, or work up to the point you can get sets of 15, then 20…

Then, on your fingertips …

And three, well, PATIENCE.

cats wait for DAYS to strike, even the mighty tiger with all its ferocity and strength is by nature an “ambush predator” – as opposed to a bear, perhaps.

But they do pretty well in fights against lion and grizzles, although “nothing can beat a grizzly” – tigers are the only ones that come close – well documented!

So thats four things …

And thats that – back soon!

BEst

PS – Animal Kingdom Workouts is truly a book everyone wants, and loves once they get it, if you ain’t gotten it as yet, do so now.

“Strong Arms Bro” from a “crazy brother”. hehe.
- Hey, Ben - we love ya!

I was going to write about this later. Honestly, we’ve been so busy as of late I run the risk of repeating what happened in 2021 i.e. I was literally too busy to even workout like I normally do, really push it – and it showed.

No, I was obviously not fat, but I was slipping w.r.t the high standards I hold myself to – and yall to0 and rightly so on both bloody counts – John Walker noticed that, and the birthday email he sent me was so heartfelt that I shall never forget it, from a true doer, and at the risk of sounding like a stuck record – the best thing I could have ever heard, best birthday gift I could have got and have gotten for years, and the results show now as John predicted they would in 2022. My best year ever as he predicted, thus far, he is spot on.

Anyway .

I was going to make this short, since I was too busy to have a good one yesterday workout wise.

but since I just got done with 180 squats, 10 slow mo so if you’re counting thats 190, since I’m SWEATING – but since I did not do anything else, and I am RARING to go on pull-ups!!!!! – I’ll try and keep this short, but given how today is already panning out, it aint gonna happen. So be it. Hehe.

Including these long ass paragraphs I only wrote in 2010 – hehe.

Marketing sacrilege, I can hear people scream, but like I’ve been saying, as opposed to what idiots think about me, it aint and never has been all about the money, anyway, on that note?

I checked spam – I had not done so in days it seems

And presto, like I predicted, a certain Benny showed up – and he’s given me another one of those reasons to “unspam” him. Hehe. In one of his rare “sane moods” is he .. !

“Strong Arms Bro”

Hammers, Isometrics, Cables, Animal Moves and other things are about as much as I do and I believe even my arms are proof that variety beyond just bodyweight and grip work really do the trick. Maybe one of these days I’ll be able to do handstand push-ups starting in a headstand like I did in my 20s at around 230 lbs. Yes, it’s true I did do that and I have proof of it.

For now, having strong arms and shoulders are a favorite omg with a few other things.

I have been losing weight too BTW. I’m at 253 at the moment and was close to 270 back in may. We may have our banter but I know what I’m doing right and progress may be slower but it’s still progress. Keep at what you’re doing in your own training, maybe one day you’ll be able to lift that stone.

Well – Benny – first off?

I love hearing back from ya – banter aside, you’re that crazy brother ole “Rocko” talked about in Rocky – Paulie (who in real life was actually a BOXER – hehe – as opposed to Sly – those shoulders, take a look!) …

I’m sure you’ve got your own thoughts about me, which is fine (his email was accompanied by some “pump and pose” pictures of arms and shoulders) …

But hey, look man.

Admittedly I’m not one for pump’n preen and puff and buff either, but you’ll love THIS email I sent out a while back – I KNOW you’ve seen the flick. Hehe.

Farm boy arms 

Banter aside, most of it was honest feedback from me – which you dont agree me, and I get that. And I dont have a problem with that, honestly – a lot of people dont agree with me, but in terms of what I said about you being – and looking fat – well, you could ask someone like a … ah, just ask who you trust. Haha.

Or, dont …

I realize you dont give two rips about my insistence on form on everything, and hey – I’m anal on that – I admit as much not just here, but in my books.

And I always will be – there is a reason for it.

If you feel what works for you is doing them otherwise, hey – it’s a free world pal.

Like Uncle Bob once told me, hehe “it’s a communist country”, and … (we were both in the PRC at that point).

But one thing I’ve never said is this my friend, and look – you know I point out both sides of the coin, so it’s only fair to point this out – I never said you were WEAK – not physically at any rate.

Or, “not strong”.

Sure, you could probably lift a fair bit – hey, and kudos to you for working up to that, but let me expound in a manner you once asked me to i.e. “motivate not tear down” (though I never tear down – I give it to people straight, if they can’t handle that thats fine) …

(and look, strength has it’s place, for somone that wrote Battletank Shoulders, I’d be a fuckin hypocrite to claim otherwise, I never have, but strength and conditioning go together, they’re two cogs of that same wheel my friend, they’re all equally essential).

Think about this my friend Ben –

How much stronger would you BE – with that muscle – if you lost weight, and got in shape?

You and I both know you want to do tons of pull-ups – correct me if I’m wrong, but we all want to!

How much better would you look – and feel – in all regards – without the excess weight? With that CORE – and the strength and arms – BOTH?

Thats just to start with and it aint got nothing to do with anyone’s ego either.

Think about it, when you truly get in sync both mentally and physically, you wont need me to tell you that. Like you’ve noted, like I keep saying, I was just like you 10 years ago or more, so I am damn sure qualified to tell you at least that if nothing else…

Maybe you’ll reply with “I wouldn”t, and in that case that is fine, but if so, you’d be lying to yourself if you said that my friend.

More – If you have truly lost weight then kudos – and keep it up.

Hey, if you show enough progress – starting today (no, that aint implying you have to!) – I have something for you – a gift you would REALLY appreciate – a book of mine we both know you want. Hehe.

Only caveat to that being (and it will massively discounted if you show PROGRESS!) – you must issue it a genuine review, my friend.

If you like it – love it you MUST say so and not be shy about it, if you HATE it – you must do the same – no mamsy pamsy nonsense about “he gave it to me at a discount so I must be kind” – i.e. tear the fucker apart if you so think it deserves to be, if you love it, then SAY SO UNABASHEDLY! …. no mamsy pamsy stuff of be kind and such  if so, no deal. Hehe. That is non negotiable, along with the “improvement” condition above.

I suspect you will love the book. I suspect you know you will too. But anyway, thats neither here nor there. It’s my way of MOTIVATING you – yet another way other than this LONG eye watering email for one.

(Alan’s eyes must have done watered already, lol)

No, you didn’t ask – but … Hehe.

No, I am not implying you want, need, yada, nada, schnada, I’m simply putting it out there for you my friend, and if that ain’t motivation enough (Although really, I think you should do it for YOURSELF first and foremost) then nothing ever will be.

(and that ain’t banter either my friend).

And it’s your choice, pal.

I’m always here to help if you need it, from the tone of your email, thats a “sensible” tone you struck.

Nothing if not reasonable am I in that regard – just ask some of the doers, all of our customers.

Anyway, that pull-up bar be waiting, therefore.. ????

(And the wife BE hollering, lol)

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – The stone he is referring to? Well, you’ll see an older version of me (older in terms of time the picture was taken – not “age”) lifting something way heavier – pressing it to my chest. Stay tuned. Hehe. But you might just get the “me now” doing it too, we’ll see!

Youtube has more on that!

PS #2 – Ben, for what it’s worth – Handstand pushups are one of the best movements for strength training – but by themselves they wont help you lose weight.

“By themselves” being key …

DIET is also a huge part of it, not saying you overeat – or eat wrong – if you do, you know that – I dont. And it aint none of my biz if you do, to be frank.

But, WATCHING (emphasis – not “curtailing” necessarily) what you eat can be a huge thing, even the wife said it herself the other day, I was like damn. Miracles do happen!

Maybe I made that miracle happen, more on that later – but thats some more advice, un-asked for perhaps, but hey, per your “request” in one of your last comminiques to me!

Cheers.

PPS + Quote of the day, keeping in line with these long emails, this one could be “two or more” the one on the other side “five or more”.

Marketing sacrilege I know, but like I’ve ever given two rips about so called rules. Hehe.

While walking back from school – I’ve mentioned this before, but the sheer privelge of seeing my daughter grow up – I’d pay for it!

Maybe I AM paying for it in some ways – pun intended.

But kids, one day you’re walking them home from school.

the next day, they see you doing clubs and want to join in, from a little baby that was 3.2 kgs to one that already has shoulders like boulders … well, its just so NICE!

Real privilege, and that aint marketing or BS, it’s FACT AND IS TRUE!

And seeing her “go home herself”, with her school bag at that (she wont even let me carry it now!) …

An old wise man, as I was shouting out behind “look left, look right, then cross the road” (she’s like a young elephant that doesnt know her own strength, still not fully grown into a teen, “in between”, still immature, I hope that persists!) …

… old man, grizzled with a long beard was like

“You’re teaching your child wise things!”

So I am, I grinned behind my glasses. With all the molly codding they get, they need practical knowledge more than anything!

“They need to learn to be independent – but wisely!” he riposted. “And you’re doing that!”

I would have chatted more to him, but I was jogging so I had to say bye. I’m sure we’ll meet again sometime my friend!

But thats the “vibe” for the day thus far …

And to end this whole thang off, and to BEN specifically – the crazy “brother” if might call you that (you’re welcome to call me what you like) (and lets not get into brother in laws from another mother or what not, heh)

Yes, you CAN! 

So can all of YOU reading this.

And thats that.

More on INTERNAL cleanliness
- And it means something!

Remember what Farmer Burns wrote about in the Lessons of Physical Culture and Wrestling – or was that the other way around. I keep getting it the other way around, the title – but then again, given a good wrestler must first and foremost be a good PHYSICAL culturist, I do not think I am wrong!

That was written in 1914. Those words hold as true today as they did back then.

People need to hear it – MORE – now than they did back then!

Quite literally, with how fake society has become …

I’ve written about this before, of course.

Simply because you’re all decked up and “parfumed up” (pun intended, as well as Taipo) … simply because you have spiffy new clothes and the best hair do – and so forth -all of it comes to nigh NAUGHT without the right internal cleanliness.

If you’re bloated and constipated, for one, from years of terrible eating, stuffing junk down your gullet, doing little or no real exercises, or simply – eating too much – or whatever reason, all the clothes in the world wont hide that fact.

And neither will they stop those nasty farts and burbles in the tummy – at the most inopportune times, my friend.

you that IS in that situation knows what I mean, those sudden “I gotta go” moments right when you dont need or expect them – such as perhaps when in a meeting with a cranky bear of a boss, hehe.

Anyway …

Perhaps even more important than THAT?

Well, the mental outlook.

If your THINKING is off, chances are your fitness is too.

And you can never improve – truly improve – the latter, or your life, for that matter, without the former.

If you’re constantly judging others, looking for excuses to fight, belittle, demean and so forth (and believe me, many people are this way) (and note – this shouldn’t be confused for calling a spade a spade) – then chances are your life, business, fitness, none of it is where it needs to be or where you’d want to it to be – same thing for if you’re a HYPOCRITE which 90% of the world seems to be specializing in, with numbers growing, with only a few “true blue fanatics” stopping the spread of the DISEASE.

“You’re the DISEASE – and I’m the CURE!” (Sly, Cobra, 1984… Hehe) – Classic!

I never did get around to owning the blue aviators Sly sported in that movie, but I came close with blue and black ones. Hehe. Not Ray Bans though, but for some reason, the green eyes I sport so often, including while doing squats for Squat 101 – I love those too much (yes Alan!).

Anyway – getting back to it …

Here is what one of our best affiliates ever, a certain Paula sent in this morning –

What must I do Mike? Because I have asked for my edition problem with the
forum in wordpress, but I have had the next answer, and after read it, I think
that wordpress does not like my page. What do you think? I am thinking that
they are saying that they are going to mark a “fleur de liz” on my shoulder like
Athos’ wife in “The three musketeers”. I feel fear. Please tell me something.
Perhaps we are very bad people that stinks, doesn’t matter that we put on us
the best and expensive perfumes and we are the cleanest people that exist
in the world.
<wordpress TOS link>

Par suit: You can call me since now, not Madam, not Lady, but Milady “Countess de la Fére”.

And no, she ain’t Nazi feminist either. There is a reason for the last request, and it aint necessarily what “Cody”, a girl I knew a couple of years ago wanted either.

She was someone who just wouldn’t let go – of her demand of me to send her SHIRTLESS pictures, which I hate doing, but have done in the past, not for women, but for my book, then my wife bitched about me doing “porn movies” (huh???) so I let that one go … But really, those fitness vests I wear in the video dont leave much to the imagination!

I dont know why, I used to be nervous as hell when I was fat and asked to take my shirt off at the beach (man boobs) – although the women didnt mind.

But now, that I’m in super shape?

I’m probably even more reticent to, as a great customer rightly put it “make a show of myself” (or spectacle).

Not that it would be.

I’ve written about in “16 Inspirational FItness Recollections” how I’d often climb the hill for hours shirtless, but that was there, in an environment everyone did it, the Chinese do a lot of things differently, including the “midriff” bare which looks strange – and downright awful if you’re fat (think about shirt till chest, and belly hanging out, and then pants) – but it allows the core to BREATHE, which during those workouts is crucial (remember, many a person fainted on that damn hill!!).

But anyway, Cody wanted it for … well, I’ll let yall guess.

She even showed her husband, if you can believe that.

And if you can believe it, he … well, lets just say Glyn and him would make a perfect couple with Cody wanting to be called “Empress” – true story! – and the two of them servile and submissive “in ass” as it were.

Anyway, this lady wants to be called what she does for another reason.

She is promoting our stuff, or – my erotica on another site, and she is by far the best affiliate, or translator, or both, I’ve ever had for ANY of my businesses.

I cannot praise her enough!

And she’s building her own site, asked WordPress for support, and well …

And of course, the bit about the mind, the mindset.

Hi Countess (???? ),

Thanks for the three emails – first off, thanks for the video link -they keep getting better and better and BETTER! I love how you put your personal comments in red in the <chopped> video, as well as what you are saying, of course at the end …

I love the “Countess de la Fére” part too, hehe. You know, I read the Wikipedia entry on her –

She is described as being 22 years old, tall, fair-haired and uncommonly beautiful, with brilliant blue eyes and black lashes and brows, Milady possesses a voice that can seduce and bewitch.[1]

A capable and intelligent French spy who effortlessly can pass as a native Englishwoman,[2] Milady’s beautiful exterior hides a diabolically cunning, manipulative, ruthless and cruel interior; she is remorseless and unrepentant for her countless “misdeeds” and often described as appearing demonic and frighteningly ugly in the instant when she is thwarted in her aims. She is a classic example of a femme fatale.

Milady later is revealed to be the wife of Athos, originally the Comte de la Fère, one of the three musketeers of the novel’s title.

This could be me, if you reverse the genders, etc  … Hehe.

Anyway, that reminded me of a certain lady “Cody” – who preferred being called “Empress“. Hehe. The first thing this lovely lady did upon meeting me was want my “bare chested” photo – and she even showed it to her husband, if you can believe that! “because she wanted to see”. Chinese girls, truly LOVELY – Haha.

Anyway, Countess – getting back to it – the website looks GREAT! I love the way you’re setting up – I’d recommend putting more text on it (which you are, obviously – I saw the “why” part below the pictures) – but the way it’s set up is great – I’d also recommend linking the pictures i.e. right now you have your links beneath the pics which is fine, but some people may just directly click the pictures – a lot of people do, so that might be worth a try.

Haha, I know what you mean by people putting on expensive perfumes etc and thinking “that is all we need to do”, and acting all prim and proper, high and mighty etc “in society” – while behind closed doors, these people have all the same fantasies and more, except because they do not have the freedom to or do not WANT the freedom to (I’m a huge believer in if one truly wants something, one will eventually get it) indulge in those fetishes safely – well- that is why in countries like India there is so much violence against women for one, so much “male frustration” etc … all this from the land that produced the Kamasutra, if you can believe that!

Or, the subcontinent in general, China – and Asia in general other than that part has improved vastly in that regard …

I run a fitness site as you might have guessed from reading “<chopped>” and some of my other books – and I say the same thing there, simply because someone puts on fancy clothes and perfume etc doesnt mean they’re “clean” – internally, they’re often dirtier than the laborers who sweat outside everyday and exercise a lot, thereby ridding their body of internal toxins! Hehe. But it’s true. . .

So back to your website – what was the issue with it, ie. why did you contact support? I saw this part “Because I have asked for my edition problem with theforum in wordpress, ” – but not sure what you meant there – please let me know, and I’ll do my best to help out.

The problem with hosting on wordpress.com is this, Paula – the service is free, but as with everything in life, you get what you pay for – even your content is pretty much “owned by WordPress” (if you read their TOS). So their support etc … it all depends upon “if they support mature content” or not … it’s allowed, yes, but whether or not they provide tech support for mature content is another story!

Let me know what the exact issue is, I’ll do my best to help.

Anyway, that email on the other site ended up being over 3000 words long, the one to Paula long as well, since its a day for long emails, well, hell –

Who knows this may help, but maybe someone!

Have you ever considered purchasing your own domain name Paula? That might be a good step, that way, you’re free of wordpress.com – and you can build/host your own site (using wordpress software) wherever you want … without many of the “terms and conditions” and restrictions that come with wordpress.com (such as you cannot access your HTML Code directly, I believe, on wordpress.com sites) …

In other words, to put it plainly with wordpress.com they can take your site down at any time – or stop providing support etc since it’s “mature content”. I’m not saying they will, but that chance is there, no matter how remote – since you are doing this for the long term obviously, that is something you should be aware of.

For you, I think the best route to go would be to get your own domain name and then do what you are doing right NOW i.e. build your own website – but on a hosting platform where you are “free” and not bound by excessive terms and conditions if that makes sense – not to mention, wordpress.com sites are sometimes not that great for SEO (although this is not set in stone – it all ultimately comes down to content and performance).

These sort of websites are best hosted on platforms that either outright allow or tolerate adult content, wordpress.com is not one of them unfortunately.

Of course, dedicated adult web hosting would not be free – you know this already – that is actually one of my “side businesses” i.e. I develop websites and host them for clients …but, I think long term that would be the best way for you go …

In your case, if you did decide to go down that route – I have servers where you could host your website, keep building it yourself as you see fit, and of course, I’d be happy to help out with “technical questions” as I am now – obviously no constraints there! : ) With regard to cost etc, we could always work out an agreement … I would be happy to get you “started” for free, even, if that is a route you choose to go down … (of course, we would need to discuss it, make a plan etc, thats business – but you have that option – please know I am more than willing and happy to help you with web hosting and that sort of thing if need be).

(it would still be YOUR site, YOU would have full control over it (and therefore responsibility etc), I would not even have the password – I would simply be doing what wordpress.com does – just so you understand. Hehe ).

(But, I can provide some pretty good infrastructure for you to host on – I know, because I spent months building it for all my websites! Haha).

Just putting it out there – I think that would be the very best way for you to go – – but if you feel wordpress.com is a better alternative “for now” (until you start to make sales) then that is not necessarily a bad decision either, but yes, you’ll be operating per their constraints obviously…

Let me know if all of this makes sense, and we can go from there.

And thats that.

I can think of at least 10 people right off the bat who this would help. And no, we ain’t talking adult businesses there either …

Anyway – clean thy MIND first is the lesson herein, all else flows from there.

(and yes, I rarely do web dev for clients unless I’m paid damn well – disclaimer – I’m only doing it right now for people like her who truly deserve my knowledge and skills in that regard so before some idiot approaches me with “do it for cheap” – please – it aint happening).

And if you haven’t jumped aboard the 0 Excuses Fitness System “train” as yet – do so now!

PS – I normally reserve the long emails like this for the Ship – so if you WANT more nigh EXCLUSIVE stuff – you will have to SIGN UP.

Yet another reason most fitness programs get it WRONG.
- Ticker, my friend!

The old man next door just passed away, my wife informed me.

He was a nice old man, I never spoke to him much – not because I didnt want to, but just happened that way, but I often converse with his son – whose young son unfortunately “departed” a while back too.

Sad.

But in the case of the old man from what I understand, it’s a ticker issue – heart attack.

Good news, he didnt suffer.

He just passed away- and when you progress to advanced years, thats all you can ask for …

Or is it?

Most people think getting old means unfit and infirm, unable to bend down, pick things up, unable to perform the most basic of tasks for themselves, and is it any surprise lots of people, the majority of people live out what should be their glory, their golden “ride off into the sunset” years that way?

I sure dont plan on going anytime soon, and I plan on UPPING my fitness levels so that when I’m 90, I can better Clint Eastwood’s one arm pushups.

And that brings me to my central point, not so much pushups alone, but how pushups are one of the best things you can do for your overall health, fitness and conditioning and strength, but also HEART HEALTH!

Let me tell you, if you do pushups right, its nigh impossible to have a weak heart or circulatory issues.

If you mix in deep breathing like I tell you, inhale DEEPLY ON the way down, exhale on the way up, and keep that up through your workout, you’ll feel your heart work like it never has before with so called “strength” exercises.

You’ll huff, puff and sweat – more so than with pull-ups – though in a different manner, pull-ups do it too.

And this huffing and puffing is what not allows you to blow the house down, but get in better HEALTH overall.

My resting pulse rate – I last took it years ago, it was around 55 something, I remember everyone being nigh shocked since it was “athlete” levels.

But with so many heart issues around, and it affecting people at young ages – this is what most fitness programs get wrong.

THey’ll focus on strength – or conditioning – or long drawn out routines at the gym – all of which not necessarily bad, though sure not the best way.

But NONE of them, virtually none of the most popular ones focus on BREATHING – WHILE WORKING OUT!

Deep breathing, my friend, is the hidden key to super strength and health gains.

If you want a big chest, much like with the abs – you tax them from the inside out, and drawing in deep inhales of air the way you were meant to is the way to do it my friend.

You never hear most fitness programs tell you about deep breathing with EACH repetition, an almost fanatical focus on it to the point people in the other room know when I start to exercise.

but thats a good thing.

It’s something YOU should do too.

It keeps me in super shape from the inside out.

And it’ll do that to you too.

Thats what I dont get about most so called popular programs, or of course, I do.

They’re not designed to get you in the best shape of your life.

They’re designed to keep you coming back for more, like gyms, make the creator more money.

I guess from a certain angle that is smart biz, but I dont see it that way.

I’d rather you get the 0 Excuses Fitness System, and never have a need for a similar program again – then you progress to advanced.

It ain’t about the moola.

It’s about getting you in the best shape of your life, its about FITNESS, thats why I started this business years ago, thats why I keep going with it, not just because I’m passionate about it myself, but because it matters to you, and I’m going to keep doing what I can – and have – to bring the VERY BEST to you fitness wise.

Back to the kindly old man, I’ve no idea if he had a weak heart, but I think he wasn’t being seen much around the block and such as of late, so perhaps health was a concern.

I dont know.

May he rest in peace.

And to all of you, remember, live each day with gusto – vim, – VIGOR and gumption like you were meant to.

Breathe in, breathe out, do so deeply as you did when you were a baby, and you’ll find wondrous roads open up to you in ways you never fathomed before.

Back soon.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

Everyday FITNESS
- Applicable to you too, my friend.

Friend,

I dont know why – but people have always had a habit of STARING at me more than others.

Or “noticing” – maybe one reason is the culture I grew up in didnt ostracize staring near as much as it should – its rude, I hate it, but that wasn’t the culture I grew up in (that culture still doesnt mind it).

In the West, you and I would hate it, but you know how it is – some people you never forget.

It doesnt hurt I’ve got a face that would “stand out in a crowd” – from either angle.

When I’m fat, I look terrible (at least according to me, girls aren’t the point here! They claim “it looks good”, but nah, I disagree) – when I’m fit – I look like a movie star x 10.

And so on and so forth, and of course, my thinking doesnt hurt either.

None of the above is to promote, Tom Tom, criticize or anything, ’tis fact Jack.

These days, I keep feeling people staring “indirectly” at me.

You know how it is, when you’re fat, when you’re not fit, you dont feel good internally, people pick that up, and jackasses pounce on it… when it’s the opposite, the opposite happens.

RESPECT is given even if you dont ask for it – fitness is always part of the overall “confidence equation”, and not bulging biceps, the corrugated core and “animal like movement and flexibility” is what really counts, my friend.

You that have it know what I mean, you that dont wants it, and so on and so forth.

Anyway.

I often fall down into the splits and stand back up while waiting to pick up my daughter from the bus stand.

This morning, I simply dropped down into a squat to tie my shoe lace, and people were staring at me – because I did it on one leg.

Not because I wanted to show off, it just came naturally, much like a lot of the dancer leg lifts I keep doing come.

My wife claims it’s to “intimidate”.

Huh?

Nothing could be further from the truth.

Cats do it all the time, and given the fact most people can barely tell when I enter a room or leave it, well, I must be doing something right?

But point here is everyday fitness.

For most people – indeed myself, I remember when tying shoelaces was a chore – I was worried about the belt buckle popping off if I bent down too far!

Sound familiar – well, it probably will if you’re FAT and reading this …

It’s about everyday movement, fitness, most people claim “I train like a pro”, but here is the real deal and why I’m writing this.

I’m a businessman.

I’m a writer, I’m many other things.

But I ain’t no UFC fighter, boxer, swimmer, or martial artist (well, not really, though I Do know a bit) – that I’ve often been compared to for my training routines.

I’m just your average, every day dude that looks better than a lot of movie stars out there – and I’m certainly a hell of a lot fitter and functionally stronger than the “bellies” I see around me all day – both male and female.

I feel a heck of a lot better.

I’m not worried about the next time I’ll fall sick, or “the next time I wont eat and how it will affect me”, or diets, or other crap, or nonsense like the “gym is closed, I can’t train” and so on and so forth.

I live life in the flow, unlike most people.

I find a way – unlike most people.

But bottom line, I’m the average guy “physically” – in fact, I’m not even a big guy, never have been.

Yet, I can do things guys far bigger and so called stronger cannot…

Point is this, if I can do it, so can YOU, my friend.

And while the courses linked above are key to turning YOU, that isn’t necessarily interested in being a UFC champ for one into a fitness machine – really, the 0 Excuses Fitness System is where you need to start, and keep with you your entire life, it will never fail or disappoint.

End of the day, thats what all this is about – getting YOU in the best shape possible, right?

You, the average Joe or Jane, much like yours truly minus the cave.

If I can do it – I have done it – then so can YOU.

Start NOW, my friend.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Keys to animal like flexibility are HERE (and believe me, you wont find this info elsewhere, but more importantly, you’ll discover a NEW YOU with each stretch – literally. Living life “tight” and as a cat – world of difference, trust me on this one!!)

Isometric and Flexibility Training 

Advanced Isometric and Flexibility Training 

And for those interested, this great series is available in compilation format as well.

We’re working on book #3 in that series. Stay TUNED!

BENEFITS you can expect to get (and very soon!) from doing plyometric workouts
- Super advanced plyometric variants of your favorite workouts – to be used WITH your regular workouts, not “in place of”.

Well, my friend, we’ve been working on the sales page for the upcoming book “Advanced Plyometric Training”.

And without further ado, since its late at night here, lets skip to the part we’re ALL most interested in – the BENEFITS!

BENEFITS you can expect to get (and very soon!) from doing plyometric workouts of the nature mentioned in this great, “one of a kind” book by the bodyweight exercise Guru – –

  • Strengthen your ligaments, joints and tendons like NEVER Before with these workouts (this is probably the numero uno benefit I should list here).
  • Build animal like “unnatural” explosiveness, speed and power in every movement you do. This alone is more than worth the “price of admission” for this, my friend.
  • If you’re a combat athlete or sportsperson, or just the every day fitness trainee looking to take your gains and results to new levels altogether – these workouts will DO it, my friend.
  • Shoot past personal bests on regular workouts very easily when you incorporate this sort of training into your routine. Yes, this was mentioned in the last point, but its so important, so many people want to do this, that I had to tell you again.
  • Increased “explosive” cardio in a manner you CANNOT get from regular workouts, even the regular ones I teach. Trust me, these workouts will have you not moving – but FLYING – literally “flying” through space as you workout!

Milka Singh, Gold Medalist and the “Flying Sikh from India”!!

 

  • A feeling of accomplishment like you’ll get from NO other exercise, not to mention you’ll feel on top of the world and like a billion bucks once you get done with these sort of workouts.
  • Increased – massively increased grip and core strength. You’ll need a cast iron grip to do even ONE rep of many of the upper body exercises here, not to mention a lower back and core of STEEL – and these attributes will be MAGNIFIED x “X” once you get going on the plyometrics in this book.
  • Your forearms will get that corded much sought after “cords running up and down them” sort of look – with the STRENGTH behind them to boot. Your fingers will turn into iron claws, quite literally, with even a few minutes per day spent on these movements!    
  • Reduce the TIME spent on your workouts from an already manageable 15 minutes or so per workout to even LESS – if you’re really strapped for time, you can hammer some of these out in less than a few minutes, and be done with your workout for the day!   (note – this doesnt mean they replace your regular workouts, but it does mean you have yet another option in terms of “super quick” and when you need the same).
  • Your legs and lower body will turn into not just pillars, but THICK solid pillars of muscle once you get on these movements. Dense, ripped – PACKED – rippling muscle is what you will have for thighs, hamstrings and calves – almost like you’d see on a thoroughbred horse!
  • Reduce, nay, ELIMINATE any signs of unsightly FLAB from your body – especially pesky areas like chin, obliques, lower abs and such – my regular workouts do a great job of getting the fat burners going big time, now these? These literally ignite the fat burning FURNACE within! ????????
  • Strengthen your lower back and spinal erectors beyond belief with these movements. Just one or two of them daily is all you need for those “boa constrictors running up and down your back!
  • Abs of steel that make six, eight and the typical “12 pack” look like a bloody joke. Develop REAL core strength, develop rock solid abdominals from the inside out, not fake show muscles for the beach or bodybuilding contest – develop strength that matters, lasts, and lands with a PUNCH when required (as opposed to fake “pretty looking muscles” that can’t do much at all).
  • Develop mental strength in spades when on routines like these – trust me, doing high rep plyometrics is neither for the faint hearted, nor the weak willed. Once you have the mental focus and drive to get these workouts done day in and day out – you’ll find that goals that eluded you previously will “flow” to you effortlessly for one, and you’ll be able to achieve anything you set your mind upon. I am not just talking fitness wise here!

And all of this, bro, touches the very “tip of the iceberg” – there is SO much more that I could write here, and I wouldn’t be done, I could literally go on forever!

Anyway – if you consider yourself to be not just a doer, but an ELITE doer, someone who is willing to go to the BRUTAL “day in and day out” lengths it takes to achieve truly elite and outstanding “unnatural” levels of brute strength, animal explosiveness, speed and development – then this course is for YOU.

The rest of yall will do just fine on my regular products.

But if you fall into ELITE category, or want to GET THERE (which you should) – well, click on over to the “Advanced Plyometric Training” page – and place your pre-order NOW.

Note – like with all my other courses, the price WILL go up after the book is released (Which will be soon) so you will want to get your pre-order in NOW.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

If you done (did) got tired of high reps…
- Some (only SOME!!) of you are qualified to hear this.

At the outset, let me say two things, one, not everyone is qualified to hear this. And two, well, for someone who lived in the South for so long, and loved every bit of it despite the so called (wrongly so in this day and age) “racist” tag it gets (no, flying Rebel flags dont necessarily translate into that either pal!) .. and for someone who has a “dear” friend Lilly who ranted about “them dammmmmnn Yankees!” all the time (he is Cajun from Louisana, heh)…

… well, it would remiss of me not to put “did” after done? ????

You Southerners will get it… I dont have the drawl anymore, but I did back in the day!

After going to China I HAD to undergo another “self” metamorphosis in terms of English if you get my drift, so …

Anyway, its great to see two things – that one,  Lilly and I are still friends despite so many old friends dropping off the list either due to difference in political or other views.

It’s nice to be able to talk to someone without being at their throats. He probably doesnt fully agree with my (complimentary in many regards as ya’ll know) views on a certain Vladimir Putin and the reasons behind the war (the real reasons no-one is telling you) – but he’s certainly not liberal, I’ll give him that!

He may not be a Trump lover, I was – but like I said, after 2020 – Trump tried to do a fine job, he succeeded in some regards, but like the man himself said in 2020, time to move on.

Ron De Santis, Mike Pence, plenty of fine candidates for the Presidency. But, my man remains the SAME – dark horse ex Cia head Mike Pompeo … THAT is my man – if he runs – I hope so!

If he did, I suspect the man would win hands down, I cannot praise Pompeo enough for his brevity when the situation requires it, his play on words, how pithy he can be while getting his point across in a very logical and emotionless manner, and .. well, the sheer erudite nature of his personality, down to earth nature, many accomplishments and so forth…

Anyway.

I remember explaining to some dude who was once asking me the difference between “Yank and Yankee” that the former was Americans in general, the latter those from the North.

Something that was ratified by a certain “Bill” Roney and if William Roney ratifies it (if he’s reading this – Hey Bill! Long time no chat – I’m sure Bozo “addicted to not just ass licking, but ass whipping too apparently, his own that is” Glyn will forward this to you without my asking, hehe) … well, it must be right

Hehe again, good ole days.

Anyway, almost 500 words in (I can just hear another Bozo complaining about “whats the point of all this”) … this ain’t about Yanks, Indians, Red Indians, Mexicans, Seminole Indians, Poke Tahola, or anything of that nature.

It ain’t about the fact that I dont quite agree fully with my bud Lilly about his views on Yankees, he’s got some fair points, but they have fine damn people up there too, some customers, or a certain one – I wont mention him, ya’ll guess! – a certain one that is an unabashed fan of Pushup Central for one is from there – damn fine “son of the soil” and ex man in Blue is he.

Respect, Charles.

It’s about this – lots of you -those that are DOERS – and high reps.

As I said in the outset, this doesnt apply to you if you’re a lazy ass that can’t pump out 100 pushups or more per workout without collapsing.

It doesnt apply if youre fat and are looking for an excuse to escape exercises that brutally expose the lack of conditioning (usually accompanied by too much gelatinous whale blubber both around midsection, tits and bottom) …

But it applies if you’re a doer.

Look, sometimes we all get tired of high reps in that we’re just too sore to do high reps, or “it just dont feel right”.

Oddly enough, these days are the days when the TOUGH movements – you improve in them!

For me, today’s workout was 250 squats, 40 pushups (floor), 20 handstand pushups, and 50 pull-ups.

Not necessarily brutal numbers for someone like me, I was going to do 200 pushups as well, but it just did not feel like that sort of day.

Much like it did not feel like a straight up 250 bodyweight squat day.

So I just improvised, made things HARDER.

Squats, I did a version of the jumping squat most have no inkling of – covered in Squat 101 – along with the regulars, and Hindus, and I used a “make your legs super sore” technique I outline in that book as well.

Pushups, I made the handstand pushups that much tougher by including wall walkouts and PAUSES in each movement I did. (each set – I did them in sets of 5 today this way).

Pull-ups, well, and again, Charles, you come to mind – I made them plyometric today – thick grips – even slower than normal ….

And I finished off with super tough versions of club swings not covered in Lumberjack Lodestone Fitness (yes, even with all the variations already there, there are tons more!) – because I dont want you hammering yourself on the top of the head, my friend.

And no doubt some will if you try that right off the bat which I dont advise, but some idiots will try anyway.

And as I sit here remembering Charles, I dont know if this email applies to specifically to him, but probably does to a degree – I KNOW it applies to a lot of you – as I sit there shoulders “zinging” after them plyo pushups … well, I gotta say this.

Advanced Plyometrics should definitely be the next one out, I better put up a sales page for it soon! I thought I’d put in 25 exercises, but the book has ballooned to 51 already which can only be a good thing.

Anyway ……………..

Takeaway?

  1. There is no excuse to skip high rep pushups, or pull-up, or those type of workouts.
  2. Get good at ’em, DAMN good, and dont dwadle …
  3. Once those above two things have been taken care of, yes, by all means make the movement harder.

I could tell you so many ways I made the pushups harder including trying pike pushups on fingertips – fingers NOT pointing straight. Yikes!

Anyway – thats it for this one.

Back soon.

Best

P.S. – Those that just read and “do nothing”, again, a shout out to hit the unsubscribe link, as if you’re never in the mood to BUY, then there’s no point is there? For either of us … Thank you! (in advance).

PS #2 – I love how Charles mentioned how so many people from “communist” NY are moving to the good ole “Lone star” State. (not to mention from socialist California to FL and so forth)-  Hey, they’re doing SOMETHING right there, hehe. . .

Overly processed foods – and more.
- Diet, again!

In modern day society, the following items are almost staples -bread, pasta, instant noodles – and so forth, and not just if you’re broke and starving either, my friend.

People seem to not just survive but so called THRIVE on these items.

Look at my wife, for instance, apparently “processed noodles” are the best thing since sliced bread, which ain’t that good either in my opinion- and dont get me wrong, to each his own, or hers, but I never ate that in my life until last year, last year I did, and after eating it – my reaction?

I’d rather starve than eat THAT.

And I mean every word of that.

Pasta – unless it’s cooked in rich natural tomato sauce falls into that category as well, unless it’s wheat or other more natural pasta.

And this holds for a whole host of other processed foods – including a lot of “packed” frozen meats and such.

Now, dont me wrong, I dont take any of this to giddy limits.

I know damn near everything has hormones, chemicals, and I’m hardly rabid about these things – unlike my current “significant other” who won’t start a single task without several trips to the “mandir” (temple) and chanting God’s name 108 times – literally, these Gurus on youtube (the so called ones that drill this nonsense into her mind all day long – more so since 2020) will be the death of most of the herd (not a bad thing haha).

Point of this is though – these foods might be the very ones preventing you from losing weight at super high levels, despite your workout routines.

If you’re REALLY, really looking to get FIT – from the inside out – being ripped is NOT a requirement.

Being slim and not having a belly and having a Corrugated Core and such – is very much a requirement, if you dont have those things, you ain’t fit by any standard (Bozo standards dont count, neither does pumping in the mirror and saying “I lost weight” when you’re fatter and more triple chinned than ever. I mean really, when guys have to take pictures of themselves at “flattering angles” so the flab doesnt show that much – its bad enough for women to do that but guys – give me a fuckin break!) …

But there’s nothing wrong with wanting to be TRULY FIT – and RIPPED – at the same time.

And the latter will only come with low fat content, and the proper diet.

A huge, huge culprit in today’s society?

A lot of the BREAD you eat, and other such “white” foods (rice might be an exception but for me it ain’t).

I’m firmly a believer in NOT eating bread – if I eat burgers, I usually toss the buns.

I’m a huge believer in WHEAT yes – and Indian style flatbreads, only if cooked with wheat (or Iranian, Afghani etc) – and in the West, wheat pasta, wheat bread (“brown”) etc).

It might not taste that good or be that fluffy, but its a hell of a lot better for your health.

Part of the reason my daughter is unfortunately showing signs of a belly is this – lack of activity yes, one thing – thats kids globally, but also … improper diet, and way too much junk food.

There is a constant battle going on in the house.

Granny gives her junk food “because Mom will not allow healthy stuff”.

She comes to Mom, Mom drills “Dont tell granny I gave you this into  her”, and just “because she’s the boss” (as she likes to say apparently) – she’ll give her more junk food.

She does try and feed her healthy.

But she does it in strange ways – often times, she’ll tell me to eat something which she’d toss otherwise. Hehe.

Perfectly good stuff you’d think, cans of tined meat and such, and of course, that lovely fluffy baker’s BREAD.

“I wont give this to the daugher”, she yells. “She has enough junk already!” 

Now, for reference, my wife wouldn’t give me any food if I was starving unless she absolutely was forced to. Thats how much she hates me.

Which is fine … but I’m putting this into context.

I of course, with my workout routines and such – I rarely eat that crap anyway, but sometimes?

Its nice to taste some decent bread!

(although I’d rather the wife’s flatbread).

(which is what I eat when at home, no rice either usually).

Anyway – I ate it last night. Loads of it, along with a lovely tasty mixture of brinjal, spring onions, and more … remember, the more vibrant the color it is, the healthier it is for you.

I did this because I knew I’d get it out of my system anyway – and because I hadn’t cheated on diet in ages, apparently – I haven’t had pizza for months despite loving the damn stuff – and because of the vegetable gravy, the healthy component.

But I Can still “feel it” today. In that … well, my digestion is so finely tuned now that I can literally feel my food digesting when I eat, and if I eat something a bit unhealthy – I dont fall sick, or have China Belly or what not, but I do “feel it” the next day.

The above might sound strange, but if you pay attention to your diet, proper attention, as you should, you will know what I mean.

Believe it or not, part of the Indian wrestler’s routine in India is to … well, defecate together in the open fields outside the akhara.

Yes, you heard me right.

And they generally look at their stool once done to make sure “everything is well formed and OK”.

I realize that put gross pictures in your mind, but that is how it’s done, my friend.

And while there are other ways to figure out the state of your insides, the above, well, scientifically speaking I cannot argue with it, though I dont do it myself! Hehe.

Anyway ….

Takeaways?

All of this, and more will be covered in a book on diet and fasting – another one of those upcoming books, this will take the “Simple and Effective Diet” to new levels basically.

I’m going to pour nigh ALL my very extensive knowledge into this one, so y’all -stay – tuned.

And second?

To lose weight, or to help in doing so – cut out the BREAD from your system.

Cut out PROCESSED stuff – and packed stuff as far as possible.

Ramen noodles, SUGAR, packs of soft white BREAD – cakes – doughnuts – all go into the BIN, my friend.

Not to say you can’t enjoy themselves once in a while, but be ready to work it out of your system! (or suffer the long term consequences).

Anyway, thats the tip for today. Back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

IF enough you show enough interest, then this may happen.
- And more on the sheer brutality of squats. . .

And more on the sheer brutality of squats. . .

Some – a lot  – covered in Squat 101. 

And some not.

I gotta admit, as I sink down, hips, ass, hamstrings, all cramping (this for someone who routinely pumps out hundreds of squats, has put in tons of hours of stretching) … CRAMPING, I gotta do more than stretch, which I will soon.

Before that, there is an absolutely brutal variant of the squat I did NOT put in Squat 101.

Sales are picking up for this book, early days as yet, too early. After all, I put out the book like two days ago. Hehe.

And if you haven’t gotten it at the price it is NOW, well, “silly you” is all I can say… (because, well, the price will go UP very soon like I said so many times).

some people. you tell them, you try and help them, they dont get it, anyway …

Anyway, the point of this being – this brutal squat involves the following –

The JCVD split – one of the toughest for a lot of people to do right.

Mentioned In Advanced, PROFOUND, Isometric and Flexibility Training – and the Sumo squat which is mentioned in Squat 101. 

And it combines it all into a slippery, sliding, joints opening “forgotten movement” that taxes the hips, thighs, hamstrings, core and your BREATHING like never before, when done fluidly for reps.

The movement is too hard for even most advanced trainees to do, but you’ll see it performed in Indian akharas a lot …

Now, what is it you ask.

Well, if enough of you show interest in Squat 101, which given the way the orders have picked up, I believe you ARE – then Squat 102 will have this, and more utterly brutal version of this movement, and more.

So much more I got to teach, there is just no way I can put it all in one book.

And it’s not that easy for everyone to do anyway, most of you will spend a lifetime working on what I mention in Squat 101, so you should – so I DO – damn near, or daily.

Anyway.

Two more tips for utter brutality I’ll add into this book – and tell you now, sorta –

One, practice KICKS between your squats.

I give you plenty of recovery tips for your legs in Squat 101, but one way is also to practice your kicks in proper form – note – too many people kick in piss poor form and get found out in fights (for one, your “other foot” should NOT land “in front of you” when doing roundhouse kicks, and two, when you do side kicks, your non kicking leg does NOT bend!) … (and kicks come from the hips and core, not so much “thighs”) …  between sets of squats.

You’ll see this makes you super sore if done right.

If you make the kick an isometric and HOLD for time – boy!

And if you do what I mention in Squat 101 (did I mention it enough times? Hehe) – – and combine the Rahul Mookerjee “patented squat” into your training, along with “slow mo” squats – well, you’ll understand the meaning of SORE legs and cramps – anew, if that is even a word.

Remember, after all this, DO stretch out.

It’s so important, even more so after heavy duty squatting, and I’ve not only included examples of WHY you should do so – personal examples – but also the exact and best exercises you need to use to stretch out.

As always, the bodyweight exercise Guru delivers more than what he promised .. and thats how it SHOULD BE, my friend.

Truly, with all my background in climbing hills and such, and now this, and my “slim legs” “slim long muscular legs” which Carol giggled so much about – well all of it makes me the perfect candidate to bring this book to you, and all the rest…

Get it NOW.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Joke from the wife, but it speaks volumes and is testament to my focus on PROCESS and then results … or visualizing the result during it …

Daughter keeps losing stuff the wife and mother give her.

Opposite of when we were growing up, we barely had nothing, now they have everything, molly coddled and more.

Bratty too sometimes!

So she often gives me stuff she buys for the daugher for safekeeping.

I’m supposed to hand it out “within reason”. If the wife does, it disappears, then I get phone calls on trains in China saying “your daughter gifted her pencils away to her classmate again!” … Hehe.

True incident, happened when I was on the train from Shenzhen to Dongguan, hehe.

Anyway, the saying goes thus.

“He’s the security officer. Not even God can get it from him”.

Why, daughter asks. God can!

“Because he’ll ask God for REASONS And logic”.

Hehehehehe.

So I probably would!

But process is process, taking care of one’s own things is an art, just like with one’s body.

And there is no better person to bring you the art of caring and training your own body, my friend, indeed, as rabid customers keep telling me “if people dont appreciate your art, to hell with them”.

And thats always been my biz philosophy anyway!
