The hugely popular “Jannat” movie series in India is a prime and true example of how women can lead sex obsessed, deprived, lonely men down a spiral of self destruction from which they NEVER recover.

Both were huge successes, with cucked whiners and wankers complaining about the movies and how they objectify women etc galore.

But there’s a reason these movies (and my products, writing etc) are as successful as they are. They truly capture what folks – yes, females too – FEEL deep down inside but never say or express.

Same thing for any Sylvester Stallone movie.

Another hugely successful, even more so than the above in fact movie in India “Animal” was roundly panned – not so much for the savage alpha males in the movie but ONE scene – where said alpha asks his mistress to prove her devotion to him by licking his shoes.

Which she never did but the hue and cry, my. How dare he!

I have a feeling if the female lead asked him to do that and he did it like many a Bozo Schofield obsessed with being Josies servant would – they would praise it up and down. Don’t believe me? Ask any Nazi feminist. Her response will be proof enough.

Coming from someone whose routinely called a movie star (who his own Dad satirically once claimed was a fiery mix of Akshay Kumar and Amitabh Bachan – the former always a legend bar none in my eyes!), TV personality and such with all the annoying associated stares and gasps (ugh) – you better believe it. Coming from the main protagonist in the infamous “kissing” case in India in 2008 where yours truly was advised by Uncle Bob to make a movie on it – and he was right – you better triple dog believe it.

That case is STILL online. I still remember the look on Dads face when he found out I got married through the paper as I proudly pointed out (sic) I was on page two of the Times of India.

Hit me up for the URL or do your research if you so choose.

And it never would have gone down if we weren’t worried about what would have happened at the exs place if their parents found out about an unsanctioned marriage. Apparently she’s from the “Yadav” clan which in “honor killing” obsessed North India is known for violence – which I actually call bs on. I don’t believe for a nary New York minute that members of any “clan” are any more or less more disposed to anything than anyone else. People are people everywhere, period. Enough with the bull crap broad categorisation my friends.

I actually met her Dad – perfectly reasonable man in most regards except a few age old beliefs…

 

Literally, bro – that is ALL we did. No actual kiss or anything close to it (not that there’s nothing wrong with a red blooded male kissing his woman – please don’t pull the culture BS – that don’t apply here) and yet.

Anyway. You, the reader are free to research the incident yourself. It only jumps to memory because Jannat 1 was a movie the then girlfriend and I (how I wish she would have listened to REASON) watched and enjoyed (both of us) before getting hitched a few months later.

Like my lawyer later told me, a man is less than half himself with a woman around. That case is but more proof of the truism mentioned in this email. We got arrested for .. stealing a kiss outside a subway station. We even got charged for it. And the cops ripped me off for it.

Of course they had no idea Rahul Mookerjee doesn’t back down from challenges.

We ended up getting an official note of apology from the Police Commissioner.

Anyway.

In Jannat 1, the male lead is a struggling man who falls head over heels for a girl he doesn’t even know initially. That first look did it all, much like the Italian thunderbolt did for Michael in The Godfather!

Breaks into a shop to steal jewelry for her. Gets arrested. Uses funds he was supposed to return a loan shark thirsty for his blood to buy the ring for her upon his release. Maxes out all his credit cards buying the girls products. Yes, all true!

Completely broken, Providence saves him when he makes it big in first illegal betting and then match fixing.

And the money doesn’t just flow at that point..it rains and pours.

All the while, the woman despite getting a glamourous lifestyle she could have never had otherwise bitches and moans. That ‘hes doing it for himself ‘.

Even gets the guy arrested so he can “reform himself”.

Guy tries to change who he is. Can’t really do it. We never change who we are at the very core my friend. Fact.

Reforms for a while, then falls prey to easy money again, gets shot and dies.

And the girl of course returns home without so much as a scratch to show, living her life like nothing ever happened and it was a bad dream.

Lust for money, not me, the girl argues.

I beg to differ.

And anyone that’s seen the movie, or any red blooded male in general would too.

Without his Queen as he refers to her (I don’t blame him – Sonal Chauhan is, or at least was, nothing short of a fucking 20 out of 10) he might still have chased money. Certainly not to the extent he did for her tho.

And the outcome, well…

In Jannat (heaven) 2, the same actor is a small time illegal guns supplier who a cop finds out about.

This cop is your archetypical alpha male. I don’t generally categorize but Randeep hooda shines like an under appreciated gem in the movie. I love the guy – right down to those pushups he bangs out regularly.

Any so called man who doesn’t or can’t do at least 100 pushups in perfect form daily along with at least 25 perfect pull-ups isn’t a real man. Sorry, but there the fact stands. Along with squats in high reps – if you want to be truly savage as opposed to a wackjob preening in the Jim – then these exercises are essential. Ask any boxer, wrestler – martial artist, even swimmer. They’ll tell ya.

Mr Pushup Central Rahul Mookerjee, also known as Mr handstand Pushup – prepares for a REAL man Battletank Shoulders workout!!!

Back to it –

A drunken cop in the movie obsessed with taking revenge against the gun cartel (who was accidentally responsible for his wife’s death years ago) he beats, whacks, curses and drinks his way through the movie obsessed with ONE goal and one alone – to avenge his dead wife – truly a SAVAGE I advocate all men to be – that ultimately by crook accomplishes his goal.

Respect, Randeep. Right down to his real life story … Truly an alpha DOG.

He blackmails the guns supplier after he finds out about his romantic entanglement with another Queen – another 12/10 I’d say – and tells him to be an inside man for him in the cartel. Or else, well, the girl will get to know who you really are , he slurs, not the BS you fed her.

The story is long and interesting.

But the guy despite having giving up his racket for the girl “to reform” does what he never would have otherwise – out of fear of his girl finding out and leaving him.

Gets pulled deeper into the murk, becomes a pawn for the cartel boss (coincidentally the girls father, we later find out) and the cop – and dies a rather painful death at the end.

All along, the girl never trusts him fully. Never believes he’s a guy trying to make an honest living for them – and when the cop says he will tell her the truth ie he reformed for her, only reason he joined the racket as an inside man was his love for the girl – guy on his deathbed says “hell no”.

Truly the STOIC staredown above, as the cucked male character rants and raves ..

She wont be able to live with those heavy memories, he says.

So, cop just unwillingly maintains the facade..

The CLASSIC scene I cannot get enough of! Hehe

The girl none the wiser chalks it down to a terrible experience, vowing to forget the very guy who literally laid his life down out of “love”.

What is love, as Carol once asked me. Hehe.

No money no honey is a truism in China.

As is the oft repeated tale of  a woman on a Chinese sitcom “I’d rather cry in the back seat of a BMW than be happy on a bicycle”.

Guys in general need to wisen up to all this.

In my pathbreaking book on combating Nazi feminism, I say repeatedly it ain’t women that are ultimately responsible for this plague. It’s the cucked male enablers behind the scenes that are.

And it’s true if you think about it.

Anyway.

That book will ensure you profit – as opposed to hurtle towards ultimate demise – from this plague – if you do what the tips tell you.

Last but not least, an oft repeated truism in India.

“Aurat mard ko Abad bhi karti hai, barwad bhi”.

A woman can both enrich a man endlessly or completely destroy him.

Like Carol once sagely said, “the right woman is very important for a real man”.

And she’s right.

You know its true when even women say the same damn thing.

Anyway. .

Take from this what you will.

But watch the movies.

And try and catch any Hooda flick you can. Guys truly a lean, mean GEM of a fucking actor.

And that’s the bottom line.

Best

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – You’ll want to watch the video I just did on this too. But one line from the movie, said about the drunken cop vainly trying to revive his dead wife’s memories by repeatedly dialing his own number just so he can listen to her voice on the answering machine says it all.

“Adhaya padhaya Jat, per solah duni aat”

Educated guy, yet 16 twos are 8.

I couldn’t be bothered to explain here…

But I think you get the drift.

Classic.

Nah, I ain’t referring to Marc the African Silverback Gorilla – truly a luminary in that regard as y’all well know!

Walking back from school today,  asked the daughter how much the ex complained to her about me yesterday.

Valid question..

Anytime she’s frustrated with her own life, of course it’s all my fault.

My daughter laughed.

“the usual”.

….

She keeps complaining you do nothing for us.

Yawn.

What do you think, I asked her idly knowing the answer.

But it surprised even me.

“Of course you do! You just do it indirectly”!

I cant remember the exact word she used.

But the vehemence wth which she answered said it all.

It’s pathetic how Nazi feminists will try and turn kids against their own father – then blame the father for all the issues in life they never let him fix.

It’s truly, as I said earlier, a self defeating and destructive – to self and all – mentality.

“I don’t think your wife even knows how destructive she has her to your relationship”.

Sage as always, REMORSELESSLY logical as a real man should be and is – from the African Silverback Gorilla.

And when even the kid says “I just do what I do to survive” (in terms of Moms incessant banshee wail) – well, there’s no further proof of what I said above.

“It’ll be a win win for both when you finally leave”, she said sagely.

Hehe.

Not for the ex.

The favorite whipping boy will be long gone…

She just yells because her own life is in tatters, I grinned at the daughter, who grinned back, truly the chip off the old block.

“She says the same thing about my school teachers”.

I had to laugh out loud.

Truly, and the ex told me this once – women are each other’s worst enemies.

Logic, anyone?

I didn’t think so. Hehe.

Then we spoke about how “Granny has decided to ignore me”.

Great, I laughed.

Like a few Bozos here on this list and a few gawkers that keep complaining about me, whining about product prices etc – yet secretly want my stellar and nigh unmatched results, hence haunt this place with an unmatched passion because they know I’m the real deal and are addicted to me – she claims she ignores me, but follows everything I do anyway with such passion you’d think it’s the other way around ie she can’t get enough of me. Hehe.

Men, learn how to deal with this shit. Turn the gaslighting and ridiculous demands, blame games etc around.

Achieve what you were meant to ask a real man.

Reject the BS programming..

And that’s that.

Best

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – My daughter is only 10. She’s known this for years. Should tell you just how stupid all of this is.

Not to mention her bitching (ex) about “don’t talk about me on Twitter”.

Yeah.

Good luck taking my freedom of speech hun. Especially when I state cold hard facts and nothing else.

Call Elon. I’ll throw a few quarters in even!

Lots of hoo haa about the latest brain killer – the Apple Vision Pro. When will idiots realise their brains can do infinitely more than this useless gadget – for free? And does without you even knowing it?

Ah but that would require thought. Haha.

I’ve never even been a fan of Apple phones anyway. I don’t see the infatuation – I don’t get it – given Androids can do far more by shelling out a lot less. Yet, the myth of Apple, the brand persists…

This vision thingy is some sort of moronic virtual reality device – and the buyers, well, if you need a device to create or curate reality for you, you’re a complete loser and moron my friend. I’m just being frank.

Dumbphones have killed the imaginative faculty of most brains out there more than the TV did..

And now they’re applying the coup de resistance, literally.

Simply get a device to basically visualize for you.

“Blend in the real world with the virtual”.

Let me ask you this – when you see a beautiful woman or handsome man or whatever you’re into – or a nice juicy steak, or that car you really want – do you really need a goddamned gadget to see and feel yourself in the car – on the woman or man – eating the steak no pun – not in that order?

Does the “chaos of the world” affect your thoughts at this point? This device claims to “replace the clutter of the world with beautiful environments”…

Why my friend?

I don’t get it.

Maybe you do, I don’t know.

But I’ll stick to visualization – which is what created this damn product anyway.

And that’s that.

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

 

I don’t follow a lot of motivational speakers etc – even the few I love, such as David Goggins. The vast majority of so called beads, chains, mantras and amulets self help nonsense “don’t get wet in the rain more than twice on Sunday, feed the ants sugar on a certain afternoon, goggle at Saturn or what not – et al, the list of BS goes on and on and on) which most fall for and prefer because it’s “easy” – well, we all know my views on that …

Not because their stuff doesn’t resonate with me but because I’ve LIVED what they say – talk about – sometimes if I need a “pep talk” I will, but all of these stuff these guys say I can relate to like it’s my own life.

Andrew Tate is a guy Ive heard a bit of and every bit of what he says resonates with me big time.

If you want to be like someone, be as rich as somone, follow their thinking patterns, their lives, what they did to get where they are. Everyone has to struggle. Tate’s no exception to that rule. Neither is Goggins.

Or any true doer.

What really hit me about the Tate videos I saw though – one was so personal that I did a video of my own on it.

“Let her leave you”.

In it he talks about the rage he felt when a relationship he cared about fell apart – couldn’t focus on nothing for days – etc etc.

Man!

2015, as I’ve said so often before. That was me. I took that rage, and translated it into becoming the bodyweight exercise Guru. One climb became two, which became three, then 4 per morning – work – 2 at night – for years.

I had to work myself into a state of exhaustion so I wouldn’t be thinking of her. That was an unconscious decision I took.

I did.

And the compliments started coming my way.

“He’s lost so much weight so quick”!

More girls. More relationships than I could handle. The same girl I was still so much into would call me at 530 AM to wake me up – break up?? Hehe – and we would hold together. I’d still talk dirty to her on occasion. Haha.

I’ve been into fitness all my life. I wrote Fast and Furious Fitness in 2010. I communicated with Brooks Kubik and other guys in 2003. Yet oddly enough I never really, despite a blog back then – thought of creating my own fitness biz back then which I well could have. Brooks question about if I was in the military when I told him about my hill climb (just one at the time – but it resulted in the famous Rahul’s hill walking workout from China email to his list and inspired a couple of his own hill related emails – he was in Kentucky at the time which has hills galore) …

Despite Ann Lee kicking my ass. Hehe.

It only happened because of what happened in 2015. And importantly, my REACTION to it.

(But in terms of my running around with bevies of women during my younger days when I really should have focused on biz, especially with my well paying regular expat jobs in China – well, the Universe has a grand plan for us all. That running around resulted in my other businesses today and the talks I give on motivation, self help etc. All from the trenches – straight from the fucking heart my friend).

I did not sit around, mope, go to pieces as most guys would.

I put that rage to work. I didn’t even take the decision consciously. I just had to do something!

And I did it.

Results, well – they speak for themselves eh? But again, my REACTION to that situation is what counts as well as countless other hurdles I’ve faced in life and continue to – and welcome. They make me even harder!

Might sound odd but adversity is a friend, in many ways one of the best friends and teachers you will ever have. Welcome it if it comes.

Remember too, the old Napoleon Hill saying “every situation, every adverse occurrence has a seed of an equivalent of greater benefit”.

Not the flower of full blown success, but the seed from which the said flower can be made to germinate.

No, not just mere words.

They are true.

I should add “IF you take the right action” and know how to find that seed (which you will if you take the right fucking action) …

Most will just read this, yawn, scroll past.

And never accomplish anything in their sorry lives and that’s fine by me…

Then what he says about paying attention to your last thoughts before lopping off to bed, and your FIRST thoughts upon waking up. I just wrote a tome on that one on the other business before I heard the video. Tate’s spot the fuck on. Those are the things you manifest on auto pilot, that you care about so deeply you get it without even thinking about it consciously. Flow!

The other thing he said which I understood, but I worded it different until now ?

Wake up in the morning and say this to yourself.

“I want to see the best of what the Universe has to offer”.

This morning, upon arising, in fact in bed for 40 minutes or so (like Churchill, I’ll often work from bed sometimes – minus the cigar haha) thinking about various issues – I was getting a bit “ticked off”.

And then I used these words.

Remember, this is the guy whose written Zero to Hero – lived by what’s in Gumption Galore – and so forth. People, a certain Terrence included are using my adaptation of the popular saying “it is what it is” (I’ve always found that to be self defeating – I say it is what it is FOR NOW ie you can and will change “what is”) in their own motivational talks …

Yet, I used those words. Remember, I admire Tate, Goggins, hard men like that.

I’m nowhere near becoming a multi billionaire – as yet.

Therefore when people that have lived my way and eventually gotten there – I shut up and listen, even though I could add a thing or two on to what they say, and they wouldn’t mind because it makes perfect sense. And then implement, do.

Instantly as I said these words, my mood lifted.

I didn’t know why. Checking a few businesses, payments etc – I got it. A biz that I’ve been working for years finally looks to be getting off the ground financially. Results! More on the specifics of that later, that’s not the point here.

Tate talks a lot about listening.

And he’s right.

People give me all the excuses and bs about different body type, I’m big but not fat etc for not being able to do pull-ups – something even my most ardent detractors know I’m damn good at. Better than 99.99% of folks out there. That don’t mean I rest on my laurels. I’m out there improving form daily!

Yet, they want my results.

But they won’t shut up with their retarded excuses and DO.

Just buy the damn book already. Then this one.

Ah yes.

How dare I ask you to spend money?

That’s the ice cream stand, beer store and Netflixs prerogative right?

Tate gets that too.

A multi-billionaire, when he asks for 25 GBP to teach people what he knows – the whiners show up in hordes.

Hilarious if you think about it…

And so it is for the whiny lot here (there’s a lot) that secretly follow all I do, yet somehow never have money to get the product and therefore my results.

If you want it bad enough, you’ll find a way to get it.

Those whining about money oddly have it for all the things that really don’t matter ..

And if that’s the way you choose to live life, you gotta remember, your results will be along those very same fucking lines.

Anyway. . .

Put the cynic aside in you.

Get the products above..

And wake up every morning, and say that line out to yourself.

It will change your life, along with paying attention to your last thoughts before lopping off to bed and what you FIRST think of – that very initial thought – upon arising.

Pay attention to and actively decipher your dreams too. Write that shit down. I don’t care if you gotta wake up in the cold to do it. Just do it !

My new site on dreams is in the works as we speak.

And my old favourite rahulmookerjee.com, well, I’m still unable to access the admin area of that one. Gotta fix that soon too…

Last but not least, remember that action is what moves mountains – not just nodding the head which anyone can do.

You can say the above line or 10000 more until the cows come home with enlarged mammaries (sorry Sophia, hehe) (Tate was talking about being called a pyschopath as many of us doers are) but it won’t manifest a damn thing until you actively look for the ACTION to take to achieve that desired result and then do the damn thing no matter how crazy, uncomfortable or outlandish it might seem.

Just do it.

In the words of the immortal Ralph Waldo Emerson “do the thing, and you shall have the Power”.

And that says it all. His Laws of Compensation are a must read, along with Claude Bristols the Magic of Believing and pretty much a of Napoleon Hills writings.

No, you don’t know it all.

No, that’s not just “that stuff” or the Secret or what not. There ain’t no secret as Goggins has rightly once pointed out. The laws of the Universe are out there in the open for us ALL to use. Like Tate said, its a very giving place too – you just have to ask and prove you deserve it – most do not deserve it due to being lazy whiny losers.

Yeah, that stuff really matters.

Ask any doer, you’ll see.

Stop being a loser and get the books above,bread, implement what’s in each and every damn one of them, mine included.

And that, friend, is truly that. . .

Best,

Rahul Mookerjee

Over the past few years I’ve been stressing the importance of doing both pushups and pull-ups. Lots of folks feel that since the pull-ups is overall way tougher – pushups are not required. Wrong.

I found this out the hard way back when working out for Battletank Shoulders. I was doing 100 handstand Pushups and 100 plus pull-ups per workout but no floor pushups.

Easy I thought. Imagine my shock then when after a few months I did 15 – gasp – regular pushups – and I felt it in my lats whole showering!

Over the past few weeks I’ve been really zeroing in on form on everything as I look to ascend to the next level. You keep improving. Even the bodyweight exercise Guru and Mr handstand Pushup – is no exception!

While doing Jack la lanne pushups this morning, man – I felt muscles along the side of my spine – mid back, right by the spine I hadn’t in years apparently – as I focused in on form and keeping my bubble butt down as much as I can. Hehe.

Muscles that you’d think are taxed in the pull-up and they are.

But not to maintain perfect balance and a stiff core. The two are different.

Pushups tax the mid back heavily – an area not heavily taxed by pull-ups, although they work the entire back.

And if you’re having trouble keeping the core tight, chances are excellent and second to none this particular area of your body needs to be strengthened as well. For me it’s a weakness on the right side of the spine. Something I only found out today. Like I said, we keep learning!

And that’s that my friend.

Lesson – do not ignore Pushup Central my friend.

Pullps are a must. Not because they look glamorous but because they build brutal upper body strength you simply couldn’t otherwise.

But don’t neglect walking because you run and or vice versa.

Same thing here.

And that’s that!

Best

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Pushups, splits, forward bends I keep stressing as opposed to the more glamorous back bends folks go ga ga over all strengthen this region.

I’ve been seeing a litany of posts as of late from folks that lift hard at the gym – some right, some not.

A common thread with them seems to be “illness”. Specifically sinus issues and such, muscle aches that dong get away, rhinitis, and other aches and pains…

Now, most will never admit that heavier and heavier weights in the gym, even if done in proper form are BAD for you.

Just ask Brooks Kubik. Drug free 500 lb bench press. He got to the point on e where he couldn’t lift his arms up to our his shirt on, so blown out were his shoulders from the almighty bench press.

The latter pulldown is even worse. Yes, ladies, it gives you lovely back spread, muscle etc – men too – but these same folks cannot in most cases do handstand Pushups and pull-ups.

A female Japanese powerlifter I’ve been chatting with (yes, extremely feminine – simply lifting don’t mean she’s “manly”) – said the same thing.

She could probably bench me. Hehe.

But, illness, body pain etc – I advised her to do some outdoor running and deep breathing for her ailments (described above).

Unfortunately Madam wants to take pills so she can get back to lifting asap. She said hiking etc was “easy” for her.

My!

I still remember the girls giggling at me as the pang lao wai (fat foreigner) huffed and puffed his way up that now famous hill in DG as Ann Lee just glided on up it seemed…

But i really think she’s missing the point.

Muscle wise it’s easy for her.

But deep breathing that bodyweight stuff induces – specifically pushups and squats – hiking – that’s the real key.

Sweating outdoors, running outdoors breathing in the fresh or even polluted air – it’s different from lifting in the gym.

Pushups are the one exercise along with squats that induce a lot of heavy breathing.

Not saying weighted squats don’t, but they only do so for very short periods, and they lead to injury long term. Period.

Point of all this?

Stay away from the meds.

Martin Farmer Burns was right when he wrote about deep breathing making many a weak man strong and sick man well in the Lessons of Wrestling and Physical Culture – a timeless classic along with Emersons laws of compensation, Claude Bristol’s “The Magic of Believing” and Napoleon Hills Think and Grow Rich you MUST read. No, I get nothing for promoting those books. I’m simply doing it to help you – those that will listen that is.

My, my fingers seem to be nigh flying on the dumbphone today!

Anyway.

It’s well known that I rarely, if ever, despite my other vices (cigars, beer, cigarettes etc – no, whiners, I ain’t saying that’s good or asking you to do it or advocating it – I’m just being honest – we all have our vices. Most let them control them. I control mine. So, I’m “allowed” to indulge) fall sick.

I attribute this to many things, but most of all – my core training. And,.my bodyweight routine.

Get the core ready, you can handle anything. Spot on, Herschel. Spot on!

Others that eat three meals a day, run on treadmills, lift heavy etc – not the case.

Without exception the ones that don’t incorporate some form of bodyweight training in their routines – aka DEEP breathing I talk so much about in the 0 Excuses Fitness system. One tiny hint in the videos – not mentioned in the book – be sure to pick that up – immensely helpful. Panourgias from Greece and a few others caught it. Most won’t!

(That’s when you can tell somone really values what they’re paying for. They read it, listen to it, watch it – over and over again. My books are not novels you read once and put down. No, you learn something new every time you read them!).

They’re called manuals for a reason.

And that, my friend is truly that. Lots of lessons above.

I’ll let yall figure them out!

Rahul Mookerjee

Walking, my friend – is a highly underrated exercise. Like pushups, most people think “it’s too easy”. It’s anything but especially if done right.

For years, I did walking up hill for hours a day and it got me into the best shape of my life.

Sitting here in this here neck of the woods with NO hills and very few inclines around, my thighs feel swollen – calves worked to the bone.

Squats? Yes, sure.

But running, roadwork, builds the entire body, especially the legs – differently.

Walking on the other hand is a much more calf intensive activity if done right.

All three activities mentioned above build the whole body and should well be included in any decent fitness regimen.

If you’re getting beat up with too much roadwork daily, switch to stretching and long walks the next. Maybe weighted, maybe uphill…

Do squats and pull-ups the next day.

And so forth.

Keys to include some form of heavy duty leg and back work in your training daily my friend. And core, grip – the former gets done with leg and back most of the time. The latter, if you’re doing back right.

And that’s that.

Best

Rahul Mookerjee

PS – Animal like workouts can give you the workout of your life in very little time and should be included as well. Find out more here.

I’ll probably head on back to bed after this short one. No pun.

Another night of dreams – my. Lovely ones all of them, in between someone I know getting a “bruiser” (black eye – long dream story) – one of my favorite sportspersons of all time Big Matt the Bat showed up.

Massively built back in the day Aussie opening batter that literally pummelled and battered bowlers all over the ground.

He was doing fingertip pushups.

Now, dreams as I’ve said before aren’t meant to be taken literally my friend. “Big Matt” in the dream is a symbol. Fingertip pushups probably a premonition of the upcoming workout later…

But I noticed something off.

He wasn’t doing them wrong.

But, there’s always a way to make pushups tougher. Like I say so often, I can make 10 pushups tougher than a 100.

And there in the dream, I moved my hands down to my waist – or fingers in this case – as “Matt” shook his head “too tough”.

Which it is if you do that.

The more you move your hands towards the waist, the more your forced to focus on form, core and lower back – while your thighs and upper body get a hell of a workout too.

Try this one – and tell me.

Yes, pushups are a full body workout. That’s just one of the lessons drummed into you in Pushup Central, the 0 Excuses Fitness system and such.

And that’s that for now.

Back to dreamland,. literally.

Rahul Mookerjee

Lots of folks have this erroneous thinking that a strong grip is required “just if you’re into sports, or are an athlete – or so forth”.

The reverse couldn’t be more true.

I’ll always remember a famous Sly Stallone comment where he once said he would judge – no pun Dredd hehe – potential suitors characters (he has three daughters) – by their grip.

It might sound silly, what he said. But it’s not. A mans grip can tell you a LOT about him if you can “feel” what I’m saying here. A firm handshake, and so forth. Goes a long way!

As he rightly said – “Grip it like a MAN!”.

Tommy, a guy I used to work with back in the day and supposedly with some basic wrestling training in Turkey – once made an interesting comment when Alan our supervisor, discussing our severances – or about to discuss mine, at any rate – made the comment about my grip “he truly has the strongest grip here”.

Alan and his comments on my grip. And the “limp” expressions he often made with his hand – legendary. Hehe.

Tommy responded by saying “grips good, but you need so much more”.

Bear in mind he wasn’t exactly in the best of shape himself.

And this was a guy who famously got into an online fracas with my buddy from the Marines (I won’t get into details) but discussing it with the African Silverback Gorilla – I still remember what he said.

“Have you seen the arms on that guy!” (Referring to my buddy – bear in mind Marc himself was no slouch in that regard).

“Those guys are killers!” He made the comment about him – while making a dismissive gesture in terms of Tommy.

Later on when I finally did meet the towering giant I’d later be friends with, he made the famous and true comment about my “unnatural pull to my grip“.

Coming from a guy who’s about five times in size, wrestled in high school, did all the brutal training required of him in the Marines – swims regularly – does sets of 20 dips as a regular workout and so forth – that was something. Hehe. And true!

That and the equally famous comment about who was more brutally honest – Trump or me.

“By no means a foregone conclusion” was his response when I said ole Donald had me beat there by far.

He’s right. Hehe.

Anyway… All great guys, great memories.

Grip is something you build almost as a side effect if you’re a Marine – sportsperson – athlete -and so forth.

Sure it’s not the only thing required – but it’s damn important.

Play tennis for a week, you’ll see what I mean in the first regard. Your serving hand grip will be a hell of a lot stronger than before even without specifically training grip.

Or wrestle. Greco Roman, Olympic, Turkish, Indian, Russian, even Iranian. I don’t care. The Iranian old-school wrestlers wrestle each other with their bodies swathed in oil.

Try gripping upper arms and waists that are slick and hard to grip in the first place, then picking folks up and throwing them around etc. You’ll see.

Point of all this?

A strong grip is a must for everyone.

It could even save your life someday.

Yes, I’m not just referring to Sig Klein.

I’m referring to everyday heroes – the unsung ones – one mentioned here.

That’s truly some trippy ass shit, Holmes!

And yes, John. Spot on. Grip training is truly as important as breathing my friend!

Like I keep saying too – we only know what we are truly capable of when we really “have to”! That’s why I keep saying, never rest easy. Don’t take days off. Keep the hustle going – in ALL regards!

And even if you’re not out there trying to save lives in split seconds on cliffs at precarious heights – or carrying heavy fire hoses etc – let’s face it, a strong grip comes in damn handy if you gotta shift furniture up and down stairs – carry Grandma to the bed – no pun please – or simply hoist your girl up in your arms – hehe.

Or, opening them hard to open jar tops.

Or, just carrying groceries or crates of beer, hehe – or AC compressors – up and down flights of stairs.

Or just toting 20 liter bottles of water up flights of stairs. Still remember Brooks Kubik and me discussing that when I brought it up.

“Good idea! Fill them wth sand as you get stronger…”

All everyday stuff my friend.

Those middle aged ladies in China that do it, or the tiny Chinese massueses that massage all day long – poking and prodding the hell out of you while you squeal in pain if you’re the average person – haha – can teach you a fuckload about grip too. Mentioned in 0 Excuses Fitness...

And from the guy with an unnatural pull to his grip that can take men down more than three times his size and much more accomplished in many regards – my courses on grip training get you there.

Click on over here – and here – and here – if interested.

Snap up the courses NOW. Much more in the offing Jeeves.

Then get to WORK on the exercises..

Remember too, you don’t put the cart before the horse.

And thats that.

Exercise these days in addition to the “I’m big not fat” and gym bullshit has descended these into Selfie City Central..

In China, I still remember Bozo Schofield pestering me daily about “how many girls wanted your wechat today”.

Ok, we all know many did.

Not near as many know how much it irritated me. Sure, it’s very flattering to be compared to a movie star, porn star, whatever the hell it is, but that’s not why I did those four long excruciatingly difficult hikes daily for years.

It’s a battle daily, my friend.

A competition against yourself.

You’re never too good to learn or improve.

“Don’t worry about the girls! They’re all hot and sweaty there too” was my roomies response to my not working out near as much as I should when I was 19.

I wasn’t. I was more conscious of myself – how I’d look in comparison to the Bozos preening in the Jim…

“His camera angles suck”.

“The photos are terrible”

Yeah.

Maybe.

But pretty ain’t what we are about. It ain’t real life. Neither is it fitness.

John Abraham, Indian movie star was once asked by another movie star and yogini Shipla Shetty about how he felt about folks constantly asking for selfies when he was training.

His response – classic.

“My gym is my temple”, he responds. “You wouldn’t ask for these selfies if you saw me praying at a temple, would you?”

(Mosque, church, whatever it is).

And that says it all, my friend.

Keep doing the thing.

Always remember to stay hard.

And thats that.

Truly what 0 Excuses Fitness is all about – has always been, always will be.

Take it or leave it.

The choice – and the associated results or lack thereof – is also YOURS.
