Protein Shakes are Toxic!
By · CommentsI literally almost shit my pants when this report came out. I wanted to release it when the media did but I wanted to do my “own” due diligence.
In many instances there is usually someone or some company with an agenda behind one of these studies… and I refuse to get caught up in that stupidity.
This time it is a “true” report and some of the popular protein drinks and meal replacement drinks do have high levels of toxins than I or any of you would like.
To tell you the truth… I’m a little baffled to why anyone or any company would have let this go unmonitored… to allow their product to be infused with toxins… is beyond my scope of thinking.
As a branding expert, fitness professional and just someone who cares about the public health… I’d probably recommend they make sure there was no toxins in something I sold… but that’s just me.
Checkout this video and tell me what you think of this report.
Craig Ballantyne always has such cool ways to work your body. We both kinda come from the same place when it comes to finding creative ways to work your body hard.
In today’s Wednesday Workout Tips portion of askROCCO Blog… I direct your attention to my friend Craig Ballantyne’s three favorite ab exercises… even though he gives several variations and makes it more like… 10 ab exercises. Who’s counting any way.
If you have ever done the ab wheel… you know it’s hard. If you haven’t try it then get back to me.
The two exercises he suggests… the Ball Jack Knife and Cross Body Mountain Climber are definitely some of my favorites as well. Watch the video of Craig below and try out these exercises.

Kim Kardashian and her idiotic Quick Trim Commercial
By · Comments
I have no words to say to this… OK… I’m wrong I do but I am completely baffled why anyone would even dream of buying this product. When you watch the commercial it shows, Kim “Jimney Cricket” Kardashian as she reveals as much T & A to make you want to vomit or drool (depending where you are with her looks) and then as her breasts are fully in your face… She asks, “How HOT do you Want to be?”.
One thing I know for sure… Quick Trim didn’t make her supposedly “HOT” (my jury is still out… I think she looks like Jimney Cricket) and it definitely didn’t give her those breasts. You make the call… buy or not to buy…
Here is what the “Label” for the “Cleanse and Burn” product says…
Quick Trim™ Burn and Cleanse
Supplement Facts
Serving Size 1 -Day Supply
Servings Per Container 14
Storage Instructions: Store in a cool dry place. Warning: SEE MANUFACTURER’S LABEL FOR ADDITIONAL PRODUCT INFORMATION AND INGREDIENTS.

Quick Trim, LLC
3750 Investment Lane Suite 2
West Palm Beach, FL 33404
So basically, the most important thing that you should know about this product is that it needs to be “Stored in a cool dry place” and that there is a warning but you will have to see the “Manufacturer’s Label”, obviously after you purchase Kim Kardashian and baby sister Khloe’s Quick Trim “Burn and Cleanse”
I don’t know… maybe I’m the asshole but don’t you think you might want to give your potential customers a hint of what they might be getting their naive little heads into? I’m just saying!
I know I’m going to hear it from the Fat lovers and excuse makers out there but something has to be done about shit like this. There is no way that a man or a women with their ass and body half way into the aisle of an aircraft is safe in any way.
One… and it’s pretty obvious… they’re blocking the aisle in case of an emergency. You don’t have to be Einstein to figure that one out. One that not too many people think about… is, more then likely this guy’s going to have a heart attack and if he has it on that aircraft, who is going to lift his ass up and off that plane? I know the flight attendents even if there are five of them aren’t going anywhere near that safety hazzard. So it will be up to me or some other strong passenger that knows CPR to revive this guy to live another day to eat a box of cookies and a cottage ham.
I know I bitch about fat people and the airlines enough to make you sick but I still don’t see enough being done to help with the problem. If you complain you are not compassionate to the human species and are downright cruel. I’m sorry but that’s a bunch of horseshit… If the people that are this fat had an inkling of compassion for themselves they would do anything within their power and everybody else’s power to get the weight off.
I’m harsh because no one else is. Richard Simmons cried with the fat women and a lot of good that did them… they’re still crying only 40 lbs heavier then they were 20 years ago. It’s about time we stop making excuses and get it done? Let’s make a serious commitment today to get shit done. Do the work… pick any workout that you want and see it through… it’s up to you. If you don’t like me calling you FAT, then do something about it.
One of my clients on the fitness business side of things introduced me to someone and something that I find rather unique and amazing. His name is Paul Gagne who is nicknamed “MacGuyver” (yes that’s how he spells it) by his contemporaries for being able to create exercises from a toothpick, bubble gum and Q-tip… well maybe that’s a stretch… but not that far.
Paul does seem to create exercises and exercise equipment out of thin air, but that’s not the only thing he does. He is a Posturologist… I know, what the hell is a Posturologist? Basically it is someone who evaluates your posture through a series of body awareness tests… finds the inadequacies in your musculature… and fixes them to improve your performance in just about everything you do or want to do. Pretty friggin’ cool if you ask me.
The video below does not show anything that has to do with Posturology (those will come) but it does have something that Paul created called a Radical Energy Systems Circuit for the Upper Body. I tried this circuit out for myself and it Radically kick the living shit out of me.
Take a gander at the video below to witness Paul down at the Half Moon resort in Jamaica performing his Radical Energy Systems Circuit for the Upper Body with his colleagues.
