My New Grooming Channel

I absolutely adore the physical specimen of manhood.  I call it just shy of worshipping man.  And all this adoration makes me feel compelled to want to bring out the best in men’s physical beauty and their appearance. I absolutely love and adore the physical body of a man!  It gets me very excited.  It gets me very turned on.  You could say I’m boy-crazy but I’m really just man-crazy.  I’m just crazy for boys and men in general!

I’m also a huge lover of grooming.  When I moved to New York City 10 years ago I had the honor of working with Out Magazine to do a grooming series for a big corporate conglomerate!  There was a video of me training for the Gay Games and it included a jog down to Brooklyn Bridge Park.  A park that is very special and near and dear to me, of course!

So ten years after my Out Magazine partnership, it seemed like a natural fit for me to start my own Grooming Channel, paying forward all the lessons I’ve accumulated over the years. 

As men, we don’t really discuss grooming. I think because it is embarrassing but mostly because it is deemed “feminine.”  Oftentimes, men want to know how to do something, but perhaps they aren’t comfortable seeking out this advice. Well, if this sounds like you then you’re in luck because this space is for you!

I plan on covering everything.  Starting with the feet.  Foot fetishists, rejoice!  I haven’t told anybody this but you get it here on the BLOG EXXXCLUSIVE.  We will start with grooming the feet. 

Why?  Because feet, well,  they carry us through life.  They are sort of very important to take care of.  I am a very physical guy and my feet sweat a lot, so I’ll show you on the grooming channel all the small things I do to maintain good footcare.  The goal is to minimize sweat, thus keeping bacteria, fungus, and all sorts of gross pathogens at bay.

My wish is to keep things simple and economical.  It costs $65+ to get your legs waxed at a salon (probably more since I last went) and this is non-inclusive of tip.  This is expensive.  Especially when you can spend $9.99 on my grooming channel, $20-$25 on your own waxing kit via Amazon, and learn how to do it yourself… All in the privacy of your own home. Better yet, for the rest of your life!

Footcare first, and then we move up the body to leg waxing next.  And then after the legs are done, well.  You get my drift.  Sometimes it is nice to keep people guessing!

We embrace all forms of beauty here, of course.  If you want to keep your nipples hairy and the patch above your ass-crack hairy, that’s your decision.  But wouldn’t you want to know how to get rid of that ass-crack patch if you wanted to?  Wouldn’t it feel empowering to get naked and feel confident, knowing that everything is exactly as you like it for yourself?  Feeling beautiful: it’s such a gift! And it is a gift I would like to share with you.

Don’t be afraid of the self-indulgence.  I hope if anything, you feel slightly more at east with the idea of grooming and removing the shame and stigma surrounding men’s bodies.  Throughout it all my slogan remains the same: “a little goes a long way.”

So, if you’re interested in turning your body into a luxury, sign-up for my Grooming Channel today!

How To Collagen Effectively

Proof I’m still sexy.

I’m obsessed with collagen.  It is a very important protein and it is very abundant in our bodies up until our 30s.  Once we hit 30, collagen production begins to wane it is recommended that we begin to get it from nutritional sources.

Leaving skins on meats when cooking them helps because that’s basically where all the collagen is.  In the skin of the fat of meat products.  So I try to keep the skins on the chicken drumsticks when cooking. I eat the fatty part of pork chops.  The fatty parts of meat are where the collagen is at.

If you’re wanting the collagen without the calories, collagen supplements are also very helpful.  I’ve been reading that we need 30g of collagen per day.  I get 20gs in my morning coffee, and then in the afternoon I have a hot chocolate where I put my final 10g scoop in.

Collagen needs help to synthesize. Requiring a few different things.  I’ve read copper is crucial for collagen synthesis to begin the building blocks, so I take my collagen with a copper supplement.  I’ve also read that l-lysine helps with collagen synthesis, alongside vitamin C, so I try and eat at least 1 citrus fruit per day.  Grapefruit is supreme, but an orange will do fine. If not that then some lemon water but through a straw to keep my tooth enamel strong.

What to expect from collagen? 

Taste-wise, collagen adds a delicious and creamy texture to all teas, coffees and beverages without adding any dairy.  I kind of miss the way milk changes the texture of coffee, sort of rounding it out and making it less aggressive to the palette. Collagen adds that texture without any lactose.

Collagen is a hormone booster so, you might feel a little more hormonal than usual.  Expect to feel sexy. Expect to get a little more hungry than usual also. You might be a bit temperamental. All the things expected from a hormonal boost. 

Maybe if you see your hormones getting too big of a hormone boost on 30gs, start at 10gs and eventually work your way up.  Expect an energy boost for sure.  Oh and less aching in your joints after 6 weeks of consistent daily use. Reducing fine lines is a vain bonus, but the biggest blessing is the ability for collagen to heal the gut lining.

What collagen to get?

When shopping for a collagen supplement I look for 2 things: as many different collagen types as possible. I also look for whether the collagen supplement has Vitamin C or not. 

You want as many different collagen types as possible, yes.  Here’s a chart for reference:

Supreme: Ancient Nutrition Multi Collagen Protein

You want to make sure you get something that has as many different types of collagen as possible.  I like Dr. Axe’s multi-collagen supplement because it has all 10 collagen strains.  This to me is the best product on the market in terms of collagen supplements. Dr. Axe is almost a hero of mine. I mean have you seen his YouTube channel? He looks like the picture of perfect health. I trust what he says and I find him very inspiring.

Also be sure to look out for Vitamin C in your collagen supplement. They sneak that in there because Vitamin C is used to help synthesize the collagen, but if you’re putting it into something that’s already acidic like coffee, it might be a double whammy and burn away the collagen altogether.  So just be weary of Vitamin C in collagen supplements and if it’s in there use it accordingly for things like tea, or a yogurt + granola snack, or throw a couple scoops into a smoothie, something like that.

Dupe: Horbaach Multi Collagen Protein

If you’re balling on a budget, this Horbaach brand is also really great:

It’s not quite as good as Dr. Axe’s but it is a little cheaper and you get double the amount for a lower price point, and fundamentally it gets the job done.

So there you have it! The collagen supplement supreme, and then their respective dupe. Feel the boost and know that we are on our way to getting our bodies super fit and strong for anything that life has to throw at us!!!

Amini Fonua's "Big Titty" Chest Workout

It is no secret that I have a nice rack.  How do I know?  Well firstly I’m not blind.  Secondly, all my exes have at some point of another complimented my chest.  My guess is that they must look very good when participating in strenuous horizontal activity… like swimming!

Anyway, I come from a big titty family.  Everybody in my immediate family has big tits. Again, I’m not blind.

So yes genetics are very helpful.  You can be blessed with nice breasts but in order to maintain your nice bosom, it does take some work.  Because I’m a generous King, I’ve decided to share with you all my chest and bicep workout.

I have been doing this routine for over 10 years and in fact, I just did this workout routine yesterday at the gym.

Here is how I keep my nice rack.

So this is for the people who already know how to do the basics at the gym. I’m not here to teach you how to set your back in bench press, that requires a trainer.  Nothing I do is out of the ordinary.  All of it is straightforward and all the equipment you’d be able to find at your local YMCA or similar.

I like my workouts the same way I like my men: straightforward, consistent, and effective.  Simplest is best when it comes to my gym routine.  I don’t deviate much from this routine.  I am a creature of habit and I like it that way.

Great things are built upon consistent pristine habits, every successful person knows this.

You won’t get great tits in 2 weeks.  You’ll begin to see results depending on your age.  In your 20s you’ll likely see results by your 4th week of consistently doing this workout; in your 30s maybe the 5th or 6th.  40s I don’t know.  I’m not forty yet.

Whatever you do, remember this is a marathon and not a sprint.  Don’t go too heavy the first week and burn yourself out.  Start slow.  Remember the weight I lift at took me years to get to and stay consistent with.  I’m happy with this weight and I will try to keep it going.  I’m not hoping for my body to get any bigger or stronger, it’s all about maintaining and keeping what I’ve got.

Gym workouts and exercise routines and shaping your body to look the way you want it to look is going to take patience, consistency, and perseverance but I assure you it is worth it. The confidence a good body affords you is priceless.

LPT: regarding working out specific body parts, wait 36-48 hours before working out that muscle group again.  For instance: if you’re doing something arm related on Monday, don’t do anything arm related again until Wednesday. Do your leg or ab workout in between.  This gives your body adequate time to recover.

NEWSFLASH: It is during recovery that allows our muscles to grow. So don’t be afraid to sleep more!

I take 2 minutes rest between each set.  Because I’m blessed to be at a gym that is quite big, I do “active recovery” between sets.  This consists of me taking a lap around the gym, which equals almost exactly 2 minutes.

I hate standing stagnant and waiting for the next round of reps.  I’d rather keep my body moving, and I do notice that I’m able to recover a bit faster between sets of reps when I do keep my body moving.

That’s all I have for you right now as I get my own ass to the gym. Happy lifting!!!
