Recently, a customer reviewed the book “Isometric and Flexibility Training“, a book that I had been “putting off” writing for a while, but a book that I finally “got around to doing”, and which expectedly received rave reviews right off the bat.

Here is what a customer had to say about it –

Rahul

Of all the excellent training information that you’ve written about in your superb training books I truly believe that the information in this latest book is the missing link that ties all the other books together.

It is no exaggeration that this book is a must read for anyone who wishes for their body to function as an integrated unit and not just a collection of uncoordinated body parts.

People, in this book you will find the secret to how calisthenics athletes perform such impossible looking feats of strength. Brilliant work Rahul.

Warmest Regards

John Walker

Now the LAST sentence is what I’d like to draw your attention to here.

Despite the long line of Bozos and idiots and Mamma Mia trolls weeping about the “pictures” and “looks” and what not (curiously enough these same people then call me a “movie star” or “TV star” and then rant about it behind my back) – the fact is this, Jack.

That a) the old time strongmen ALL used isometrics to not just keep themselves in tip top condition – but also DRAMATICALLY increase strength. And flexibility. And many other things, including health from the inside out …all with what people might consider to be “too simple”.

Too easy?

Some of the GREATEST MEN that ever walked the planet did isometrics that as a recent commenter said “are just simple bodyweight exercises”

Heck, at least they’re bodyweight exercises.

Would you be STUNNED if I told you the secret (one of them) to the Great Gama’s prodigious strength was – get this – pushing against a giant oak tree?

He did this without fail for years daily.

When asked “why he did it”, his reply?

“After a tree, a man is easy to fell!”

And given his record, I dont think anyone would argue with him on that one!

Same thing for Alexander Zass, the strongman featured on the cover of the book. He was BIG on developing strength in – get this – the HANDS AND WRISTS!

Is it any coincidence that great minds – gorilla like minds – think ALIKE?

HA!

Anyway, take a look at the below –

I commenced now to think a lot about developing great strength in my fingers. Many things I tried, all helping, some of which I will tell you. I bent thick, green twigs with my hands, these being better than dry wood, which would not bend much before it would snap. I practised this a good deal until my hands became so strong that I could bend even small boughs of trees till they broke. Also I tried lifting stones off the ground with my thumb and fingers, carrying them in my grip for some distance.

Basically, he tried to bend tree branches – a variation of what the Gama did.

With all this in mind, lets take a look at a “blueflame” review from a wack job in Italy presumably.

Mamma Mia!

Honestly, one of the worst fitness ebooks I’ve ever read (and I’ve read quite a few); it’s a simple bunch of static stretches and bodyweight exercises. A shallow recommended programming, and the photos quality is simply unwatchable. And never, never all of this for € 46!
Not recommended

I dont know where he got the Euro amount from, but whatever – and just so you think I just tell you the good stuff, hehe, I dont.

But really, look at what the jackass said about a) price, b) bodyweight exercises, and c) photos.

a) and b) – – DO contrast them with what the first review said, and what the Gama and other strongmen DID. 

’nuff said, I believe …

And c) ?

Well, complaining about price, and as a certain nutjob “Keith James” complained about “he doesnt look he’s ever trained!” (HA!) … all of these my friend are the HALLMARK of low achievers, price shoppers, tyre kickers and so forth – all of whom I do NOT want in my 0 Excuses Ship group (lots of people have been signing up as of late, and I’ve been DENYING membership to folks too).

Yes, in these times of plague and what not yours truly is TURNING business away.

Because I’d rather think long term.

By the way, I was recently (last year) accused of being a “gang member”. LOL.

Habib, Jesus, Gang Member, and many other things …

I must add that on to the list, hehe.

But anyway, if you needed any further proof of why the book on isometrics is something ALL Of you (regardless of whether or not you agree with me otherwise ) must HAVE – well – this is it.

Pick it up NOW – and watch your strength, conditioning and flexibility levels SOAR.

Start feeling like a billion bucks and learning the secrets the STRONGMEN used – NOW.

And thats what I gotta say for now. Back soon!

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – I do get that times are tough and that (as a certain person recently asked) – “can’t you be a bit more flexible”?

In most cases – NO. I can’t. Sorry, but thats just how it is.

BUT, if you’re a DOER, and I get a good vibe coming off ya, I WILL be flexible – and sometimes to an extreme. So if you’ve got questions in that regard, contact me, and I’ll see what I can do for you!

PPS – I was going to write about why “bringing wives and/or significant others into any sort of business anything (not this one, not my other writing stuff) is a recipe for nothing but a gigantic catastrophe, but I wrote this. Maybe I’ll “educate” you a bit more on that one later too, hehe. We’ll see!)
