Stay Fat Die Young…’nuff said!
Posted by: | CommentsTo tell you the truth I’m almost sick of saying this…almost!..if you are fat you will die before your time. You will not live to be 80 or 90 if you are more than 30 lbs over fat…a heart attack or Cancer is in your not so distant future.
If you think that I am trying to use scare tactics…you’re absolutely right. I do want to scare the shit out of you! If premature death doesn’t scare you into getting your fat ass out of the chair and working out, then make sure your insurance is paid up and your plot is picked out.
If you have young children make sure your spouse will be able to take care of them when your dead. If they can’t …start looking for a good orphanage or foster home…maybe a relative.
If you die prematurely you are robbing the world around you of your experience. An experience that holds value in people’s eyes and hearts that you may not even know about. People love you and want you to live a long life…unless you’re a child molester and then I want you to burn in a car fire…but that’s another rant.

Crisis Averted…and a lesson learned
Posted by: | Comments
There is nothing worse then working so hard on something and then in one fell swoop… it is all gone. That’s what happened last night. I was updating this very blog to Word Press 2.7 and once it was installed, a horror I have always feared happened…askROCCO Blog was no more. Gone. Finito.
I wanted to puke. So many thoughts went through my mind and none of them were positive. I was absolutely horrified at the thought of having to piece this blog back together and all the work that went into it. I sometimes don’t realize how much work goes into this because I love it so much that I take it for granted…then…like a 2 year old would say, “all gone.” So after staying up most of the night into what I think was 5am I crashed and resolved to start a new askROCCO Blog. I was hoping that my hosting company could restore it but I wasn’t holding my breath.
I learned a very valuable lesson from this little crisis…and it goes along with the same theme of some of the posts from this week…”Don’t worry about things you have no control over”. I stayed up all night to try and fix something that I couldn’t. It was beyond my scope reasoning and intellect at 3, 4 and 5 in the morning. No place for me to be.
When I woke up the first person I called was my hosting company and the second was someone I consider to be the Word Press “God”, Jameson Bennett. He works for a company called Willow in Cincinnati, OH and knows just about everything and anything that is Word Press related. Just being on the phone with him put me at ease and within 7 minutes he breathed life back into askROCCO Blog. I was as happy as a naked baby running through the house (I don’t know where that came from…but now it’s your issue).
All that worrying, all the grief and yes, grief…it was like a child of mine died, all that lost sleep did absolutely nothing for me except make me irritable, cranky and drained. Not a good stat to be in.
So I have decided that from now on I will not let that stuff get the best of me, get my rest and leave it up to the people that know better. If by chance they don’t know better, realize that it is just a new beginning and move forward.
It’s a funny thing…I didn’t die, actually no one died, no one was hurt, I didn’t lose my life savings and I learned a little about myself. All in all not a bad way to start the weekend.
I do want to thank everyone for appreciating what I do everyday because you allow me to do what I love to do…getting people to lose weight fast!
Protein Bars…just candy bars in disguise!
Posted by: | Comments
I have never really liked the taste of Protein Bars. Most of the time they taste like I dipped my tongue in a bucket of Spackle…and yes, working in construction I tasted my share of Spackle.
What really is a so-called “health food” doing with all those preservatives, fillers, high fructose corn syrup and my favorite enemy in the world…trans-fats. I always wondered how they got away with that. This doesn’t sound like a health food to me.
My other favorite additive they put in Protein Bars is “Sugar Alcohols” such as maltitol, sorbitol and xylitol to help keep them “Low Carb”. The funny thing about these ingredients is the Dietetic Association of America states that exessive amounts of Sorbitol can have a “laxative effect” and can cause disruption in your GI tract (basically gas)…yep, you’ll be the hit of the party! What does that mean? That if you are chomping all day on these bars thinking they’re healthy that you better be close to a bathroom and bring plenty of toilet paper.
Well I’m happy to say that my friends over at Prograde Nutrition have developed something that absolutely will replace the “Protein Bar”. Prograde decided not to create a “Protein Bar” but a “snack bar” called Prograde Cravers that is totally 100% “organic” and taste awesome. They have literally been called the “Best tasting bars on the planet”
I’m excited about Prograde cravers because they are finally something that I can recommend to my clients, friends and colleagues that are actually healthy and only contain 180 calories (the perfect caloric value for a healthy snack). I have to tell you I love them and would never recommend something that I wouldn’t eat myself.
Try some of the best tasting snack bars on the planet at Prograde Nutrition and say no to Protein Bars

My mother told me losing 30 lbs in 30 days is not healthy…
Posted by: | Comments
Now that my Lose 30 in Thirty Fitness Program has gained in popularity I get asked these types of questions on a daily and sometimes twice daily basis. I just wanted to share with you this one question that was asked of me today:
“Hi, my name is Andrea I am 19 years old and I take dance lessons over the past year I have gained 20 pounds I now weigh 170!!! and I have dance competitions in April I definitely need help I really want to purchase your weight loss kit but my mother says its not healthy to lose 30 pounds in 30 days. If you lose weight that quickly won’t you just gain more and quicker? and do you actually mail the kit to us or is it just on the computer?”
Your mother is right and she’s also wrong at the same time. If you were to lose 30 lbs in 30 days from dieting alone it would be very unhealthy. You would need to starve yourself by restricting your caloric intake and that is actually counterproductive. When you restrict your calories your body takes the fuel that’s required to keep it going from other sources, specifically your muscles…that Andrea, is not a good thing.
When your body is using muscle for fuel it is breaking down the very engine that helps to burn the fuel and that is what makes you gain weight faster. My Lose 30 in Thirty Fitness Program is a system that forces you to build the necessary muscle first, replaces your muscle were it needs to be making you more symmetrical. When you are symmetrical your body is in balance and will burn fat faster. My program is not a “Lose Weight Fast” scheme it is a really hard workout. The fatter you are the more work you have to do to take the weight off. By the same token you need to understand how to exercise efficiently so that you are not working out for 3 hours a day and wasting time.
Many of the exercises in My Lose 30 in Thirty Fitness Program burn more fat in less time. Running stairs is a good example. If you run 10 minutes of stairs you will be burning more fat than you would be running on a treadmill for 35 minutes. This is what the program does. It forces you to workout smarter and harder. Don’t kid yourself this workout is “hard” and is not for wussy’s.
So to answer your question…yes my program is much safer and healthier for you than trying to diet to lose 30 lbs in 30 days. We have also made it very convenient to buy online and have it delivered the same way.
The Fat Virus…now the drug companies can come up with a vaccine!
Posted by: | Comments
When I heard some of my liberal friends talking about how former President Bush totally screwed up science and scientific research I thought my head was going to explode because it just sounded like more “Bush” bashing. Liberals in general love to find some way to bash on the Bush’s but this time I’m in total agreement.
Now researchers have found a virus that causes you to get fat? How many more excuses are “researchers” going to give “fat” people to blame their size on. Now what’s going to happen? Are the Drug Companies going to start making some “fat vaccine”. So that every child will need to be vaccinated against the dreaded fat disease. Haven’t we gone a bit too far? Now fat is in the same league as Polio and Mumps?
Now I really think my head is going to explode. 65 % of America is now fat because someone sneezed on them and gave them “Fatness”. You’ll have people talking around the water cooler, ” I feel sorry for Bob, he caught “Fatness” from someone in the office.” “Yea that “Fatness” is really going around” “I wish that suzy would just go home, I don’t wanna catch that “Fatness”.
Here’s a couple of tips to building your immune system against the horrible “Fatness” disease:
1) Build your immune system from eating dark green leafy vegetables
2) Eat more fruit
3) Stay away from meat laced with saturated fat (you may catch it from the piece of meat)
4) Exercise at least 30 minutes a day combining resistance training and some type of aerobic training
I know what you’re saying…”Rocco you’re a friggin’ genius! You found the cure for the “fat” disease!” I know, it’s a miracle I can stand in the same room with myself. My brain is so big I can barely keep my head from falling of my shoulders.
Listen to me my friends, Romans and countrymen and women. Please do not buy into this crap. All of this “research” is a Public Relations attempt to scare or cajole people into thinking they are fat because they caught something. Now that you have been bombarded with all this news media telling you so, the drug companies can now bring to market a “pill” to manage or cure the Obesity epidemic.
Now you will never need a Personal Trainer or have to exercise ever again because “Doctors” will be the only ones to be able to cure it. Nice try. I have seen the stupidity that embraces bariatric surgery. Thousands of dollars to cure your fatness only to be left with a life of literal starvation.
Oh, shit I just had another epiphany! You want to lose weight fast? Get your ass out of the the chair and stop eating garbage and maybe you won’t catch the “fatness” disease. “Whew, that Rocco he’s a smart one.”
