If I had to give you guys two books to buy – that even if you did not ever get 0 Excuses Fitness – would get you in super solid great shape – and keep you there for the rest of your life, it would be the following –

Gorilla Grip

Animal Kingdom Workouts

Yes, those two!

Now, not getting 0 Excuses Fitness before getting the former book, well, thats like putting the cart before the horse as some have said, so I do not – I repeat, NOT – recommend it, that is a baseline, that should ALWAYS be the FIRST purchase you make on this site.

The rest comes later.

But really, grip and bear like “super human” strength, flexibility, agility – another course I’d highly recommend all of you get – the compilation on isometrics, truly, this compilation is like nothing out there, nothing you’ve ever seen before, the results when in conjunction with the above two will STUN you, period, and  I really mean that.

Anyway …

I’m well known for the being the grip guy that easily opens the hard to open jars, cans, knots that never get untied, those annoying little things that require finger strength to open and so forth.

This morning I gave an old oak door – solid oak, wooden, it gets stuck all the time a mighty heave ho like a bear was hammering on it – once.

It’s a door NO-one can open.

The wife tries, the workers try, everyone tries, but the handle is one of those old fashioned ones which gets stuck in the wood, never opens with grip alone.

But you need grip to BUDGE That damn thing – so I hammered it once as if I were a grizzly rising up in anger …

… the impact shook the house. Hehe.

Nothing new for me, of course!

But anyway,  in a minute, the damn door opened.

Now, I could go on and on about the LOOKS part of this – how people keep commenting on me “losing weight so rapidly” (even AFTER I lost weight) – about staying in shape – about “you’re too slim! Dont lift that, you’ll hurt your back!” (then gape when I do so with ease), and all this .. but really, what I want to write to you about?

10, or a few benefits of that type of training and the strength and conditioning it builds in no particular order –

One, tremendous vascularity throughout the forearms – all of y’all want this, right?

Get your fat ratio levels down FIRST though, and you can do this with the exercises in the books above.

Trust me, that feeling of vascular forearms…. well, I dont need to mention it to you guys, do I now? Hehe.

Two, strength like I’ve mentioned above – comes in very handy around the house – the gym – wrestling ring – and overall, when you know you have the strength to just bear hammer someone into submission, well, in a fight a lot of other things stop mattering.

Not saying technique etc aint important, it is, but brute strength tells after a while as well.

Three – the way you FEEL.

Animal like, ALIVE, just full of vigor and vitality.

Four, train like the bear – or tiger – enough times – and you’ll stop worrying about your core.

Five, along with pull-ups and fingertip pushups, there is NOT ONE better movement you can do than the bear crawl, do it, and you’ll see for yourself!

Six – this sort of grip comes in damn handy in sports – I know that plays into the above, but still, shaking hands, tennis, wrestling, boxing, it warrants another mention.

Seven, your pull-up ability will shoot through the roof if you train grip right, a HUGE portion of not getting good at pull-ups is weak grip, even if you’re using the machines at the gym that isolate the lats – big mistake – and think you can deadlift a ton, you might be surprised when you do high rep pull-ups, or even weighted pull-ups.

Eight, playing into seven, training grip (and isometrics) trains ALL the weak links in the body without even thinking about it, nine, training grip right develops upper body tendon strength in a way nothing and no other exercise can.

And ten, animal like workouts simply BLAST away fat better than ANY other workouts you’ll do, period.

Dont believe me, get on the floor and do a simple duck waddle for like 20 seconds, rest for four seconds, do this four more times.

You’ll see!

It’s truly workouts that ignite your fat burners from the inside out, pally.

And mine deliver on that front better than ANY OTHER OUT THERE.

Get you some – NOW.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

I dont know if you can see the subtitle here, I believe yes, but yeah – as if I needed more reasons!

I dont, to be frank.

But theres one I haven’t spoken about – DIRECTLY.

That being, cuz, what is the POINT i.e. of sympathizing with whiners, “understanding their so called predicaments” which in most cases is karma, not much else, and so forth …

Lets talk about the current cost of living crisis everyone is whining about (at least in the West – in Asia and such its a given that the government will never help you anyway, so whats the point of whining people say – rightly say so – and no, I’m not advocating everyone turn into the Third world either – hang with me for a bit will ya).  . .

Look, there’s two ways of dealing with it, one is to say sorry up and down, “sympathize”, be as liberal “caring and understanding” or whatever other jazz you call it – the other?

Is to be realistic and practical.

Part of that involves, and I want to ask people on this list – those that whine up a storm about everything – this – a) have they ever run a biz themselves, and b) are they even aware that this isnt just affecting them, it’s affecting us ALL – business included??

Lots of people have this idiotic idea “he’s a businessman so he’s rich”.

Some have said in the past (NOT an idiotic things to say, hehe) that the one reason I’m not as rich as Jeff Bezos is my courses are certainly not tailored towards the masses wanting “easy stuff” and nothing more “hand holding and feel good crap” in other words that does precious little except the above, and in short, because I’m not a pussy trainer.

Charles was spot on there. Hehe.

But given what we’re discussing and people moaning about price on products etc, folks – remember – I’m not quite at Jeff Bezos level as yet, and not even close. Hehe. I may or may not get there, I will keep my thoughts to myself there, but point being what is “now”.

Lots of whiners forget that i.e. goose and gander, how the other person feels when all this is constantly thrown at him – I dont mind – but its illogical as hell, and point is this – it’s mens thoughts that create all this, simple.

I’ve been saying it for years, there is NO Escaping karmic justice, people think it’s all talk – but it ain’t either. It’s reality, you’re seeing it play out in front of you, and it aint even started.

Anyway – real point and real reason why I can’t even begin to understand this “feel good” lot?

Look, you can be sorry up and down till the cows arrive home, or pigs fly out of your ass.

Thats all well and goody, but does it FIX the issue?

I think not.

Other way is what I do, skip the BS formalities and just DO i.e. figure out and implement a SOLUTION TO A PROBLEM!

Lots of people dont like hearing that.

They like hearing this even less – your fitness is the same damn way.

Look, I dont care how “hard”it is for you right now in terms of fitness, if you’re a fat slob due to years of inactivity on your friend the deep couch, thats your fault – and your problem.

If you’re too much of a pussy to look in the mirror and admit you’re fat, or weak, or whatever the case might be – its on YOU, not me.

Lots of folks have it hard, some harder than others.

Whining about it solves zero.

DOING something solves the issue.

And that there is the point of this dispatch and all the businesses I run.

I focus on hard nosed solutions, not impractical feel good pissy BS.

And that ain’t for everyone.

But my stuff WORKS.

What would you rather have – the feel good BS – or something that cuts past it and offer a real practical solution?

I’ll leave the choice up to you.

But it’s an answer to the pseudo question posed in the title of the email, it’s also something for the whiners to ponder…

And thats that.

Back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Ive said it before, I’ll say it again, the REAL pandemic – is not the scamdemic or panicdemic from 2020 – it is how fat, entitled and LAZY people are getting in general, its just getting WORSE!

And the solution to your rapidly deteoriating fitness, my friend (for those where it’s applicable) is my premier flagship product – the 0 Excuses Fitness System. (and indeed all my other products).

Nothing fancy, no extranneous BS, just what WORKS, flat out WORKS.

And thats that.

I suspect it’s a “he” thats asking this question. And “he” did not ask me directly – I got this from some of the software I’ve installed on the site – the same software that tells me when people add products to cart, then never get them or “abandon” them – the same software that tracks your clicks etc (hence the “uncanny” way in which I figure out what you want, though a lot of that is gut feeling, honestly) – and so forth.

And it’s a great question!

One you could pose to any stalwart US Marine – those that pride themselves on doing pull-ups – from various positions as well, not necessarily the “exercise oriented” pull-up (though that is very useful and you should get damn good at it before trying any of the fancy stuff out!)

But like my buddy from the Marines and I discussed (Marines and Seals pride themselves on their pull-up ability) – those different types of pull-ups can well help you save your LIFE someday (and a customer on here told me much the same thing too, which of course is common sense, but he’s right anyway!).

I knew there was a reason I was thinking Bourne Sprints and Da Xing Xing workouts this morning. Hehe.

Anyway – you could probably ask a certain David Goggins as well, toughest SOB or one of them I’ve seen going around, passing the Seals test once is no joke, he’s done it twice apparently, got through Ranger school as well, again, no joke!

I think – it’s there on the “Pull-ups – from STUD to Super STUD within WEEKS!” page – he did 4000 something pull-ups consecutively (time frame mentioned too) – got into the Guinness book of world records too. Damn!

(deserves it).

I dont know Goggins personally obviously, but I’d bet you anything he trained a minimum of 100 pull-ups and 100 handstand pushups per workout, which for Goggins, much like me back in the day (well, not that long ago) was probably  just part of an otherwise even more intensive workout, with 100 being the point where he said “lets do 10 more” and DID.

Hehe.

But anyway – back to question.

The grip while doing pull-ups!

LOTS of people tell you to, and do CHIN-UPS – i.e. with palms towards you.

I’ve got nothing against this movement – great movement, but it’s NOT as natural a movement as the pull-up, my friend – where your fingers are pointing away from you.

To illustrate this – pick something up – or pull.

Do you naturally do it with fingers away – or towards you (no, I aint talking deadlift here).

Yeah.

I thought so.

Furthermore, and this is a secret even most advanced trainees ignore, it’s something I keep emphasizing in the books – USE THE THUMB!

SO many people claim “we’re strengthening lats in pull-ups”.

True, you are, but if your focus is simply on lats, you’re not doing it entirely correctly.

GRIP should be, and remains the FIRST point of focus, if you dont GRIP and literally squeeze that THICK bar like your life depends on it (I was visualizing just THIS this morning) – then my friend, you’ll never be able to set any sort of record at pull-ups no matter how hard you try.

And you simply cannot grip to your full ability without using the thumb.

You simply cannot develop the grip best without using THICK bars – or thick, fat gripz as I use.

(both extremely tough, but you’ll see – once you get used to them – normal pull-ups will be a breeze!)

Anyway, I’ve ALWAYS been a huge proponent of the supinated grip i.e pull-ups finger pointing away from you pull-ups …

The chin up does work the chest a lot more, but it’s an unnatural movement, and has caused elbow joint issues for me in the past, and I suspect a lot of others too.

And overall, the pull-up is much tougher, and nothing works the body like a regular pull-up does (probably why so many people weasel past it and try and avoid it like the plague. Hehe).

So in short …

To set world records?

Practice your ass off, and do so DAILY.

Make sure your pull-ups are part of a balanced upper – and OVERALL – body routine. Make sure your body fat is low, make sure your core is strong as ever! (these two things cannot be over emphasized, simply training pull-ups wont get you there, period).

Do not ignore pushups, especially fingertip pushups and extended arm pushups.

And do pull-ups on THICK bars whenever possible.

DO use the thumb.

And always use a supinated grip – its the best in terms of getting better at pull-ups, and eventually, if you so choose, setting world records at it!

Wow

I think I gave away a LOT of my secrets here, but thats OK.

There’s more, way more I have not covered here – and those interested, well, start by getting Pull-ups – from DUD to STUD within a matter of weeks NOW.

And thats that.

Back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Make sure to pick up the 0 Excuses Fitness System – in terms of an overall fitness routine, a solid baseline, this program has NO comparison, period.

From day one, ever since I saw this one lady from a distance at the bus stop while standing there to pick up my little girl, I knew she was “different” – from a certain angle.

And the first day I saw her, I believe she was in a dress of sorts, sort of like a nightdress except you could tell it wasn’t, it was one of those long flowing gowns ladies so love (hehe. I’m a fan of shorts both for myself and the ladies, but of course, it could be Gorilla Girl Sophia, or a certain “Princess” Joanie – they’ve all tortured me with the long dresses!) …

(I’ll leave the long dresses part out of this, hehe).

… and all I really made out in the distance was an Indian lady, and broad shoulders and somewhat powerful traps

The core wasn’t toned, I idly noticed, but certainly nowhere near the “rotund” status popular in the part of India I first saw her where men apparently walk around with beer guts hanging over their bellies and damn proud of it (though to be fair, the US South has cowboys who love doing that too, hehe, so who am I to say!).

But anyway, fitness levels all over the world – asinine for the most part, when people are slim they’re called “weak”, when they’re PHAT, the phat phockers who are even fatter claim they should lose weight and dont themselves. Insanity, madness.

Back to it.

I asked the wife idly that first day who she was, and wife giggled back at me.

I didnt get it.

“She’s a boxer!”

She didnt tell me to watch out. Hehe.

I added that part in.

But then I asked her more, she said she was a government employee, and barring a few other things, that was really all I thought of it (though I Admit, I’d love for her to hook me once, like a certain Angelina in 2019 who was learning boxing did – I asked her to practice on me – POW! Not quite as smooth as Marc, nowhere near, but like he did, she clocked me pretty good too, hehe).

Today, I saw this lady after a while.

“Long time no see!”

And she said yes, she had been transferred, I asked her her job, and then it hit me – I was thinking about some business related stuff I believe, then she told me she was an Indian government employee, a boxing coach, but what really struck me?

Madam’s trained Mary Kom, for a minute I couldn’t believe it, then I scanned the memory banks (the name, of course I knew it, but ..)

“Do you know Mary Kom”, the lady asked.

Not personally, obviously, I replied, then I scanned the ole elephant like memory.

She won something, I blurted out, and …

OK, Mary Kom – and then the lady  spoke about how she’s a world champ, won plenty of medals and so forth.

“I remember, pride of India from the North East”, I went.

And she is – in a country like India where the North dominates in damn near everything and is as male dominated as you can think, though the rest of the country is not, and the North East is almost China basically (no politics here, I’m NOT saying this in a bad way, I’m simply referring to lifestyle, freedoms, societal attitudes etc, hey, we all know this!) … to do something like she has in boxing, and remember, back in those times (Kom’s around 40ish, so is this lady, they started together)… thats an achievement and a half.

Tip of the hat to both you ladies!

Anyway, then she told me about “she’s a world champion”.

They dont have a “world” championship in boxing, I went.

Then it hit me.

“Ahhhh, amateur”.

But that dont take away from anything, my friend – anyway, y’all all heard about Mary Kom, I’m sure.

Whats more, this lady – who I knew only as “Hemlata” until now?

She’s even trained the lovely, gorgeous Priyanka Chopra for the biopic on Mary – Mary Kom it was.

“Have you seen it”, she asked.

Yeah, I went. “But I didnt like it!”

I didnt. It wasn’t realistic, though PC did a damn good job of trying.

She giggled.

And then I went on about how the boxing scenes weren’t realistic, and so forth …

But hey, lets be fair – the movies gotta SELL.

A lot of the boxing and related training in Rocky III, Rocky IV – utter tosh, anyone knowing anything about boxing knows this.

The start and end of the movie franchise which Stallone so wants back now are far more realistic in many ways – training included.

“You can’t learn boxing in six months”, she went. (referring to PC’s “skills” in the movie, she trained her).

“Well you can learn some footwork”, I went. “But ” …

… “You need 10,000 hours of practice to be good at anything. And boxing, man, its one of the toughest things along with wrestling that one can do!”

And it is – try fighting for a few rounds with proper form, defense (far more important sometimes than offense) – keeping thy shoulders up while doing so – it aint easy!

Anyway, lady’s been all over the world, but doesnt quite remember the cities.

Nah, no Rocky like blows to the head or anything. She just goes to train her pupils there and accompanies them to the competitions when the government sends her, but even so, this lady – in today’s day and age – kudos Madam, especially being from a conservative state like where she’s from with no training facilities for women at least back then, not sure about NOW.

She loves China, as is to be expected.

“Female dominated there”, I laughed.

Russia, she didnt like that.

“Male dominated”, I laughed again, but apparently it wasn’t that, it was the fact that all she saw was SNOW when she visited.

I advised her to go to Vladivostok the next time – hey, Russia’s a huge country, it ain’t always frozen everywhere!

Anyway … that was a nice conversation – and an interesting one to say the least.

And thats that. The lady whose trained both Mary Kom and Priyanka Chopra – quite the combo eh!

Back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Any boxer will tell you that the pushups I teach you in Pushup Central, truly the one course of its kind out there on pushups are what boxers train – for hours on end. Any wrestler will tell you the 0 Excuses Fitness System is and should always be and remain the BASELINE for any sort of serious training.

Any elite “strongman” or true “Ironman” (or Iron lady, hehe) will tell you what I tell you in Advanced Hill Training and Animal Kingdom Workouts is the real deal.

And more. Get these products NOW, and start going to superhuman levels TODAY.

I talk often about “becoming an unstoppable force of nature” in my books, products, I believe most specifically on the Animal Kingdom Workouts page.

Most dismiss it as “pure marketing”.

But it’s more than that, my friend.

Let us, for a minute, take a look at Mother Nature, and the real unstoppable forces there.

Lets talk tsunamis – lets talk WILDFIRES (forest fires, bush fires, whatever you call it depending upon where you’re at) – lets talk … avalanches?

How do all these cataclysmic events START – begin?

The little ripples under the surface of the earth miles down into the ocean no-one hears, not even the ocean dwellers a few feet above “ground level” – THOSE start that giant wave of destruction, the little ripples creating a massive force ultimately that pulls the ocean back from the shore, and then dumps it back with terrifying speed and force NOTHING can match.

Same thing for avalanches and such – a boulder rolling down hill is often enough to start what becomes an unstoppable TORRENT.

Forest fires?

You’ve often heard and seen the signs of “dont smoke around here” in the woods – even one tiny cigarette, one spark is enough to start more which eventually turn into  a conflagration.

Something small builds while you dont notice it. Most people including you might not notice the results.

It could mental, physical, even pyscho physical if you so choose.

But those daily actions, that daily practice BUILDS – until a point where one day you wake up and suddenly realize you’ve got that one thing behind you which really matters – MOMENTUM – and that momentum is picking up.

You may have heard the saying “when you’ve got momentum behind you, you’re unstoppable”.

And it’s TRUE.

In the World Wars, many wars were fought which were seemingly lost, yet the “losing side” kept plugging away until the tides CHANGED – they always do if you keep at it long enough.

Suddenly, the losing side became the one pushing back the others in a giant tide of what would ultimately become an overwhelming VICTORY (though it didnt come easy at all!).

Same thing for sports.

Many a cricket match has been thought to be lost – until the “chasing side” really took it deep and pulled up a miracle.

“It’s never over until the last ball is bowled!”

And it isn’t.

Key thing here, which most people miss, is to get the ball rolling.

Yes.

If you dont get the ball to move, nothing moves. Get it to move, and keep rolling, and it picks up speed, often without you doing much at all in terms of conscious pushes.

Trust me on this one, friend.

And your fitness – the same damn thing.

Those workouts which might not seem to add up to a lot do.

Once you get to the point you’re knocking off 200 odd squats daily, perhaps 50-100 pushups, perhaps 50 pull-ups over the course of a workout or a day, or whatever your current workout is – once you’ve been doing that a while, one day you wake up and realize youre pretty much on auto pilot.

You realize there are TANGIBLE improvements with every workout, which might not have been evident before.

You realize things – obstacles that mattered before barely seem to EXIST NOW, let alone matter.

You wake up one fine day and realize you have the power behind you – the POWER that really counts, matters – the power of MOMENTUM.

And you roll along, picking up speed with each workout – becoming a fitness machine – a bonafide MONSTER.

And thats how it works in life, fitness, goals of any kind my friend.

Once you have momentum on your side, you’re literally unstoppable no matter what anyone else says or does.

Remember this lesson, because it’s not only sage, it’s KEY.

And thats that.

Back soon!

Rahul Mookerjee

It can feel really good just to sit around and do nothing. Unfortunately our bodies weren’t designed for this. Our bodies are instead designed to move — and that’s why a sedentary lifestyle can negatively affect them.

In its 2021 article Is Your Lifestyle Too Sedentary?, Real Simple notes that lower-quality sleep, metabolism changes, and worsened memory are just some signs that a sedentary lifestyle harms your health. Even so, Ergonomic Trends finds that an overwhelming 1 in 4 Americans spend most of their day sitting down.

You may be part of that 1 in 4. You might even have thought about getting fit once in a while. However, it’s hard to start without the proper motivation. If you need some more fitspiration to get started, these poker pros — masters of an overwhelmingly sedentary sport who still manage to stay fit — have some tips to help you break out of a sedentary lifestyle.

 

Walter Fisher: find your purpose

Getting out of your comfort zone is the first hurdle you have to face. Poker pro Walter Fisher — who’s played in major tournaments like the World Series of Poker (WSOP) and the European Poker Tour — recommends finding your “why.” With a purpose to fuel your drive, leaving your comfort zone will be less challenging. Fisher notably lost 70 pounds in less than 6 months after being offered $1 million to accomplish the feat, so you can take his word on this method’s effectiveness. Of course, your purpose doesn’t have to be the same as his!

 

Daniel Negreanu: start small

A post shared by Daniel Negreanu (@dnegspoker)

“Kid Poker” is a proud vegan and fitness enthusiast — and one of the best poker players in history. Daniel Negreanu has a whopping 6 WSOP bracelets and 2 World Poker Tour titles to his name, and he believes his lifestyle plays a big part in his success. However, he knows how challenging getting fit can be. His advice? Start small. As he wrote in his 2015 piece Health, Family and Happiness, just 10 burpees and 20 pushups once a day can help form a fitness habit you can easily build on — and it takes less than 2 minutes.

 

Fatima Moreira de Melo: make time to exercise

Being “too busy” is a common — and even tired — excuse people use to put off exercise. Yet the New York Times points out that somehow, we always have the time to stay glued to our screens anyway. That’s why former Dutch field hockey player and poker pro Fatima Moreira de Melo says there’s always time to sneak in exercise. Even if you only work out to 10-15 minutes a day, it’s better than not working out at all — so make time to exercise as much as you can.

 

Patrik Antonius: remember to have fun

View this post on Instagram

A post shared by Antonius (@patrik_antonius_official)

In Fun, that old bugbear, FUN!, we emphasized that workouts have to be enjoyable, interesting, and challenging if you’re going to stick to them. Finland poker star and former professional tennis athlete Patrik Antonius believes the same — and he keeps fun in fitness by putting variety in his workouts. You don’t need to go to the same gym to lift weights over and over. Hike, jog, or swim once in a while! You’ll find that you won’t dread your next workout and may even look forward to it.

Breaking out of a sedentary lifestyle can be hard, especially if you don’t have that “push” to achieve your goals. These poker pros could have chosen to stay sedentary, but didn’t — and that’s something we can all learn from.

(Post was contributed by Beatrice Marshall)

Lots of people have this idea that I was born with a silver spoon in my mouth – perhaps golden.

Reality is often stranger and rings truer than the thoughts most people have about others – because most people have it SO wrong.

The Chinese girls mostly didnt. Hehe. Perhaps thats one reason why I … ah, but we’ll get there.

So, you all know where the videos were shot – in my living room.

But let me tell you, you may find it very hard to believe, but I wrote the damn book on a computer (laptop) that was 7 years old at the time, had keys missing to the point where my daughter would type, and they’d disappear all over the place. Hehe.

(that happened two years later, but the laptop – well, battery didnt work, webcam wasn’t, but it was a trusty ole Toshiba, and the HDD never gave up till the day I gave it away – I couldn’t bring myself to “sell it” or trash it – and even NOW, I’m sure some school is using it!)

The “where”?

Well, the closed door behind me – two of them in the videos you see – one is the bathroom.

And the second is “where”.

My bedroom, which for reasons specified above I did NOT show in the video.

Nah, no hanky panky going on at the time, though I did give Cindy a bit of a shoulder massage – after she held up that damn phone for hours on end, edited the videos, and the pictures so perfectly – and wouldn’t accept one red RMB for her work “I did it for my teacher” she kept saying (I taught her) – it was the least I could damn well do, and mention her in the book as well.

But all she did was sit on the bed and giggle about “we’re such pure friends”.

Well, Madam, my intentions were to do a shoulder massage medical style, nothing else…

Anyway – that is “where”.

The table?

I did not have a computer table – or any table at all.

It was a dressing table (last tenant was a lady) that was in the apartment, and I put a dining room chair there, and tried removing the damn mirror, but couldn’t, so I put the laptop there, and bingo, that was it.

Next apartment, same thing. Hehe. For some reason “desks” were never a thing in my apartments except in two of them where I specifically requested them.

Some of my fiction books, selling like hotcakes now?

They were literally written on the dining table on the laptop … (with power cords trailing all over the place).

Anyway, why do I mention this – trivia for you 0 Excuses buffs for one, but more importantly, you dont necessarily need spanking new everything to produce a winner, an utter and complete winner, my friend.

If you look at a certain Jeff Bezos starting out when things were on the UPSWING, good economy and all that, fashioning desks out of used chairs, not ditching his Honda until a good 15 years or so of Amazon, you’ll get the picture.

Those humble beginnings are what provide ballast, inspiration and more …

Those without them rarely, if ever succeed at the top levels.

Unless you’re the Trumpinator, hehe.

But anyway ………

Someone asked me this TODAY.

“So how do you do all your writing” was basically the question, he asked where etc too, lots of things, but those aren’t for the public eye, but this part of the question was, so …

And now you know the “mystery” behind the closed doors, none other than yours truly “Mystery” (my nick on a certain forum back in the day) pounding away at the keyboard – Pearls – Girls – and a lot more, hehe.

back soon!

Rahul Mookerjee

Not that I’ll shed any tears or down any beers – either way, the UK elections dont really matter to me, though ole Boris – Brexit was the best damn thing he ever did – with all his gaffes I’ll always give him that.

I suspect it’s one of those things where people will look back in history and say “well done, even though we didnt think it at the time”.

Long term vision, and all that, kinda hard to see for a lot in the UK (and globally).

Anyway, my man for the UK top dog job was always Rishi Sunak – not because he’s Indian.

Just, his policies, dude seems NORMAL – dude has a certain vibe about him – its hard to explain, not that I have anything against Liz Truss either, I dont know much about her policies either except she’s always at odds with Rishi it seems, but thats politics.

To me, I’d have thought Rishi would be a shoo in but the votes – apparently – say otherwise, and thats all good, how it should be in a democracy.

Last minute surprises?

Stranger things have happened, but I doubt it …

Anyway, to me, Ole Boris – I’d probably back him if he was running. Hehe.

Would be a close call between him and Sunak, but with all his gaffes, all his silly statements, ole Boris to me is a rather likeable, jolly sort (just dont let his pals pinch your backside, hehe) …

And someone who again, much like Trump – is RELATABLE.

You dont look at Boris and think “he’s one of those sitting in the gilded towers”.

He doesnt look like he just showed up off a fancy golden escalator either, especially not his wild hair do, sort of like mine on some days. Hehe.

To me, a leader should be RELATABLE above all, speak the language of the common man …

Same thing for these here emails, and why even in this economy, I’m pulling in sales while others – some apparently far more “experienced” flounder and close shop – literally.

Long term vision plays into this again, I’ve been planning for all this for years.

Much like they say “the Russians dont take a dump without planning it” – or at least they said that in the movie “The Hunt for Red October” – Sean Connery, RIP, excellent as always!

Neither do the chinese, and neither should YOU, my friend, not to that extreme, but while living in the flow is how it should be done the value of thinking things through should not be under estimated either. (with gut in mind).

Anyway …

Relatibility plus RELIABILITY  = a winner!

My products deliver on BOTH ends.

You wont see fancy crap in my books, fancy photo “shoto” etc.

You wont see Sly Stallone’s make up artist do my make up in Isometric and Flexibility Training. 

Likewise, in the 0 Excuses Fitness videos, you’ll literally BE – in my living room – right there with boxes of unpacked and packed tea beside me and a battered (sorta, hehe) couch talking to me – with me – working out WITH ME.

Because thats ME.

Thats YOU too, my friend, no-one is always all gussied up and fancy, most of the time we’re at home, we want a good ole workout at home in our living rooms and be done with it, and thats the spirit in which the books were written, videos made, and then some.

Yeah.

I can STILL relate to those videos as if I took them yesterday – “day one”, as a certain company Amazon loves to say. Hehe.

So it should be.

So it IS for our users too …

And that, my friend is that.

Pick up the 0 Excuses Fitness System now, and do NOT skip the introduction part either!

Best,

PS – My work – well, a quote from Michael (not me, hehe) on a module I once wrote in Php for dongguan Expat sums it up the best.

“It’s not fancy. It doesnt look the prettiest. But does it WORK??!

Rahul – YOU are the only one that has done this as far as I know (and he was right, at the time, no-one else had written that piece of code for php nuke) …”

Bob made a comment about gussying it up a little, which Michael didnt know the meaning of the word “gussy”, so we explained it to the Man from California, hehe.

But thats the spirit.

My stuff WORKS, it’s relatable, and THAT is what YOU want, and should want too.

Bottom line.

“El Finito!”.

It’s amazing, the answers that pop out when you ask yourself some questions!

A guy I admire for his style, his work (I’m not going to mention him here), but he’s a “fellow cowboy” pretty much the way I see it, another long ranger like yours truly – mentioned something about Freak book this morning.

About how the platform is designed to be a time suck, a bottomless pit of endless dopamine withdrawals and highs, about how it makes you depressed rather than happy – rewires – and DESTROYS thy brain – your cognitive abilities and such – and all within this space of a regular 40 minutes or so usage per day.

He did not mention the time frame, I am …

I always knew there was a reason I thought social media was fake, and I despised it pretty much.

And every time I ever used Facebook, my results in other areas of my life – DROPPED – so dramatically you’d think I’d notice, but no, even yours truly didnt make the connection (but I noticed it pretty quickly compared to the vast majority of people stuck on their dumbphones WITH no clue of what it’s doing to their lives, brains and such).

You know the point he made which really stuck out – I doubt even he noticed it.

When you point all this out to people, they claim “we’re adults and can handle it”.

“Isnt that what all addicts say”?

So true!

Social media is WORSE than the drugs Glyn Bozo and company use on a regular basis. And people are too dumb to see they are the PRODUCT there, not customers, and the supposedly free platforms make millions from ads sold to these very customers …

Anyway, hey, I advertise myself too – not and never on FB though. I did try Instagram, but it was equally annoying, and I never did it after the first trial.

Anyway, point isn’t my well known hatred of social media in general and how I love getting banned by Bozos on social media.

Point is, what guy made above “isnt that what all addicts say”?

These days, people have a whole new answer to it.

“We dont care” they’ll go defiantly before explaining to you “everything is going to shit anyways, so who cares”.

Yeah.

Right.

If you dont care, you make it worse, not caring is what BROUGHT us here, and fact is you DO care, or you wouldn’t say you didnt. Hehe. Fact also is, these same people would say those things about the “world going to hell” even when things weren’t. And I know people like that myself personally, more than I should really …

But even that isn’t my entire point.

My point is this.

When he asked that question, I got to thinking – especially with all the fools that have called me an “addict” over the years.

I struggled to find something I’ve been truly addicted to.

Cigarettes?

At one point in my life I smoked upwards of two packs a day, all “red Marlboros” …

I quit thrice, third time in china being the successful try.

Other than a few mild headaches and itchy fingers (itching to light one up) – I had NO withdrawal symptoms.

Bruce, a friend of mine claimed “I didnt really inhale”.

But I did. Hehe.

In fact, the day I quit I was standing right there at work on the 14th floor of the Winnerway Hotel in China with Clement a fellow workers from Hong Kong, and an even greater chain smoker than I was at the time.

He smoked, I declined his offer of a cigarette.

And that was that.

So much for all the “he’s addictttttttttttttttttted” crap I heard.

Beer? Liqor?

Everyone knows how much beer I drink. Hehe.

Yet, when I DON’T drink any form of liqor, beer included, and I’ve gone years without it (not by design, choice, just “happened”) … again?

Fact is this – its like it was never even there in my life.

Wifi? Another thing most people are so addicted to …

I dont have it at this point in time, by CHOICE.

I didnt in 2020 either – by CHOICE. (for a brief period of a few months which would seem like a lifetime to most people).

Most people will read this and say “so what”.

But lets see THEM do it.

Maybe I’m exceptional in that (I know, so humble as always!) all these things dont affect me as they would the average person, or I just know how to control my BRAIN better – or I should say, I understand the brain controls all ..

But whatever it is, I doubt I’ll fit into addict category for any of the above, or most of the things people are so addicted to (food being another huge example).

(The Tee Vee and cable, news etc – ugh. Haven’t had it for like YEARS now, 10 plus and going, and wont ever either).

But I’m human.

What I really, really miss when I dont have it – either by chance or choice?

Something you’d think would never be addictive in the first place.

something so healthy that you’d think I’m nuts to say it’s addictive. Hehe.

No, not coffee either …

Believe me, when I run out of green tea – THAT is when I’m a cranky motherfucker. Hehe.

If you want to bring the inner bear out in me and a cranky one at that, take my TEA away. Hehe.

It’s just hot water and tea leaves, but damn, I love that shit!

Second thing?

My HILL – and if thats not there, my exercise routine.

I’m literally addicted to squats and pull-ups for one, can’t live without them!

In China, there is a reason they dont allow prisoners to exercise. Hehe.

If you gave me a choice right now between never drinking a cold one and never working out again – I would NOT hesitate to say I’ll choose numero uno.

Never being able to workout again, THAT is something I couldn’t do without!

Anyway …… other than this?

I dont know, I’ve racked the ole brain, I can’t seem to find anything at all that I’m addicted to, or ever was. Pot included, I remember my friends in college all going “hazy” with the bong hits, yours truly inhaled, inhaled, inhaled, nothing ever seemed to change in front of me. Hehe.

Anyway ………..

Point of me writing this isn’t to tell you to give your favorite privatations in life up.

I have not. Hehe.

I drink me cold beer anytime I want some.

But it’s very comforting to know – liberating, I should say – you dont “need” it – or anything – or something.

Most people will never ever experience that feeling in their entire lives, they’re too scared to experiment, keep an open mind and do the thing …

Same thing for fitness, my friend.

Most people will never really know what it means to be TRULY pain free, TRULY fit, to truly have a carved midsection that is as strong as it looks, to truly have a strong grip, to truly have veins snaking out all over your forearms, legs that wont quit, and so forth , the list goes on and on and on …

Its a pity, because most people CAN have all that.

They just believe they can’t …

Anyway …

Its always best to be “addicted” to the good things, the NATURAL things – things that make you a better YOU my friend.

And bodyweight exercise routines fit that bill perfectly.

You WILL be ADDICTED – I repeat – ADDICTED to the 0 Excuses Fitness System (and my products in general) once you get on ’em.

Trust me, people have said it makes them feel so good, better than anything else they’ve EVER done makes them feel, and I agree, it’s true.

So if that scares you, dont get the product.

But if you’re brave enough to want, cherish and GET the good life – fitness included – you’ve always wanted – then start right here.

And thats that. Back soon! (as always, hehe)

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee
