It’s not often that some type of fitness equipment comes along and impresses me. TRX definitely has.

I was able to try it out at my client Dale Buchanan’s fitness studio, Supreme Ultimate Fitness in Boca Raton and afterward I was hooked. I used manual resistance as my ability to train anyone, anywhere but TRX has easily brought a new dimension to that theory.

I have seen trainers attach TRX to trees, poles and walls… you could probably figure out other places to fasten it to but that’s up to you.

I have to tell you… I love this product. I use it everyday and have no problem telling you about it. TRX will make your “Fitness Life” much simpler.

Check out the video below to see what you can do with it:

Welcome to “REV ABS”… REV ABS… Say it louder!

You could do Ab crunches all day… and you could still be getting ripped off!

Memorable phrases like: “He doesn’t drink a six pack… he wears it!”… make me wonder if they have real professional writers scripting this stuff.  I want to know if I drink a six pack will REV ABS also get me drunk?

I’m just saying!

In my time as a Fitness Professional I have heard every “made” up phrase or “fitness word” to try to get you to think that an info-mercial fitness product is revolutionary.

Just because there’s some new made up words, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you should go run out and buy this “Rev Abs” program.  Some of my favorite made up words are:

1. Ab-centrics.. obviously… because the Abs are a central part of this program.  Wow, that’s a stretch!

2. Upper flexion – of what? Torso… chest, back, head or just for the fuck of it!

3. Lower flexion – I’m now starting to piss my pants!

4. … and before I really lose control of my bowels… “DOUBLE FLEXION”.  You would have to me the hottest “Personal Trainer” in New York City to come up with that … absolute BULLSHIT!

So is “REV ABS” a “Total Body Workout” ( like every stupid ass program out there) or is it “Ab-centric”… now I’m confused.

You tell me after you watch the video below:

Protein Shakes are Toxic!

Posted by: | Comments (0)

I 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.

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.

Someone please give me a screw driver so I can stab my temple and kill my self!!! The Ab Tone It is advertised as tougher than any other piece of shit Ab machine that is being advertised on every late night cable channel… wow, I should really buy this! Maybe… because I am capable of reclining back in a chair… and the eccentric motion is better than doing bicep curls for my abs… what?  This pathetic piece of shit is absolutely going to get me in the shape because Tamilee Webb says so… I’m sorry… who is Tamilee Webb, again?

One more way to fleece the American public into separating themselves from there credit card. Hey… stop buying stupid products and realize that you can get a great workout with nothing more than your body weight and 15 -20 minutes.

I’m only showing this video so you can witness the stupidity:
