Reading and Living TT life

Today was an off-day and tomorrow is an Easter Sunday Deadlift day.

Should be good times.

However, I did do my 3rd TT Fitness TV Show. Just ignore the first few seconds of technical difficulty, and then join me for the big lessons on the show, including one move NEVER to do!

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
Whatever you have planned for today is probably too normal. Get a little weird. Do something different. Focus on FUN.

Rainy weekend reading ... depending on the mood... and you? ⏰💵📔📚🔥🔥🔥

PS - Get going!!!

101+ days gone in 2017. Time to get serious about your Big Goals and Dreams, right. You have to take action and personal responsibility today... otherwise in 12 months from now you will be in the same spot... and a year older. #timeisticking ⏰⏰⏰🔥🔥🔥

Two Workouts

Alright, two good workouts back to back on the farm. But I forgot to post my update yesterday.

Thursday was...

1A) Double Kettlebell Front Squats
1B) KB Swings

2A) Reverse Lunge
2B) Mobility

Unfortunately, I had a bad sleep last night.

Fortunately, today's session was only moderately effected.

1A) KB 1-Arm Overhead Press
1B) KB Underhand Row

2A) Pike Pushup
2B) Ab Wheel
2C) Band Pull

I've cut my training time and volume by 15 minutes and 20%. Too busy with other stuff. But still training smart and hard.

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

Hitting snooze and sleeping in for 10 minutes a day is an hour a week, 4 hours a month, & TWO FULL days LOST per year. Stop that bad habit now! BE the person you need to be in order to DO the things you need to do so that you can HAVE the life you need to have. #BeDoHave

Monday and Tuesday Meathead Springtime Sessions

It's always a great day when there are lots of TT Transformations to review.

And we've just published the finalists of our latest contest.

Hurray!

We're also running another 21-Day Habit Change Challenge on Facebook, and I'm having a lot of fun with mine. Here's the update...

My Habit Change: Do ONE Thing Every Day That Scares You

Day 1 – Contacted an ex to renew relationship
Day 2 – 1st ever TT Live Facebook Fitness show
Day 3 – ETR FB Live talking about Day 1
Day 4 – Tough meeting & difficult conversation with coaching client
Day 5 – FB Live interview with my business partner, Matt Smith
Day 6 – Waited until my entire boarding group had boarded before boarding the airplane... trust me, this was uncomfortable!!! :)
Day 7 – Speaking in front of 50 entrepreneurs and asking for a speaking critique
Day 8 – Breakthrough Personal Development Day with therapist, Sean Stephenson
Day 9 – Just wait till you hear about what I did... story coming tomorrow!


Alright, so let's get to my Monday and Tuesday Meathead workouts...

Monday Meathad Deadlift Day at the YMCA was so much fun.

1A) Hang Clean
1B) Mobility

2A) Deadlift
2B) Mobility

3A) Light Deadlift
3B) Cable Abs

Fun, fun, fun.

I figured, why do other exercises. Just do more deadlifts!

Today it was a garage gym on the farm on a nice Spring day.

1A) Dumbbell Chest Press
1B) Band Pull

2A) DB Close-Grip Incline Press
2B) Shrugs

Tomorrow should be some arms and kettlebell swings.

Ol' Bally and I have also been having some great dog walkery.

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

Bedros Keuilian always told me, "How you do anything is how you do everything." I resisted this for a long time.


But then I realized success lay in every ritual, from how you start the day to how you enter a room to how you take care of yourself to how you make yourself present with your loved ones.


Always do everything with dedication... and Love.


Push on,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

Ballantyne Fitness Show 2

Just filmed my 2nd episode of my FB fitness show.

#2 - Burpees with Ballantyne in Beautiful Scottsdale

https://www.facebook.com/TurbulenceTrainingFanpage/videos/10155294706444679/

So you can watch today's workout. No need to list it here.

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

"Do One Thing That Scares You Every Day." – #truth ... Your worry is often far worse than reality. Things are never as bad as they seem. Lean into the uncomfortable conversations and learn valuable life lessons from new interactions.


I'm going to try another show tomorrow.

No excuses,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

PS - Hope to see all fitness pros at www.TTSummit.com on June 2-3 in Denver.

Legacy Growth and Bench Pressing

This brilliant quote showed up on my FB timeline today.

For anyone going through one of those "what should I do with my life" phases, ask yourself: - "What is my purpose/higher calling here on earth?"; "What did my higher power put me here on this earth to do?"; "Who was I put here to serve?"; "What skill/ability do I have that NO ONE else in the world can do better?"; "What do I want my legacy to be?"

#truth

I'm off to Phoenix today to teach at an event tomorrow and then to continue my own personal growth with a full day of coaching from Sean Stephenson, the motivational speaker, certified therapist, and author of Get Off Your But.

Should be an intense weekend.

Today's workout kickstarted my day:

1A) Bench Press
1B) Band Pull

2A) DB Close-Grip Incline Press
2B) Pullup

Good times.

Quick one.

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

21 Days to Change!

You can do ANYTHING for 21 days.

Starting today, I want you to identify the single habit you want to change by the end of April. 

I'm doing it too, and together we'll use my 21-Day Habit Change Formula.

Here's a 30-minute Facebook Live I did at 6 a.m. yesterday morning which goes into details... plus I share my own "scary" habit. 

Screen shot 2017 04 03 at 8.30.37 am


In the past I've used this Formula to give up drinking Coke Zero, stop swearing, and so much more. And if you can't think of your own habit to change, I'll give you some suggestions here. 

Then once you set your habit, join the 21-Day Habit Change Club to get real accountability and a community of people who are pushing every day to change for the better. 

Watch this Facebook Live ASAP to get started

Speak soon,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT
Certified Turbulence Trainer

PS - Make sure to watch my FB pages for more LIVE videos...

...because one of my bigger goals for 2017 is to do 100 Facebook Live Shows!

It's going to be a blast... we'll do workouts, take questions, and help you improve every area of your life.

Talk soon!

Podcasts and Squats and Musk

Big news.

I have a couple of MAJOR podcasts to share with you!

First... We hit #3 on itunes in Fitness & Nutrition with Shawn Stevenson (dang, this show is hot!!!) talking about the Cardio Myth
=> http://theshawnstevensonmodel.com/craig-ballantyne/

And more importantly, in the 2nd half of this show, I grill my buddy Jason Ferruggia about overcoming adversity, as well as wrestling and pb&j.
=> http://jasonferruggia.com/training-and-eating-on-the-road/

Those got me fired up... so much so I could barely sleep last night.

Then I woke up today and got even more fired up about a video (below) as well as my workout.

1A) Squats
1B) RDLs

4 sets each.

In and out.

Busy day.

4-Minute Meathead Live!

I kinda sorta just started a TT Fitness Facebook show. It was a 48 minute livestream from ETR HQ this morning.

You can watch here => www.turbulencetrainingfanpage.com

It included two 4-minute workouts, enjoy!

After that I went to the gym.

1A) Pullups
1B) 1-Arm KB Press

3A) Cable Abs
3B) Curls
3C) Triceps

Meathead Funday Sunday!

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

If you want to be successful, you must be willing to pay a price. To succeed, you must be tough and demand more of yourself. You must do the work, make the sacrifices, and pay the price to earn the prize, or you must accept that your current status in life is not going to change. However, you must also know what price your prize is worth. And what it is not worth. Know what you will do. And what you will not. Establish your expectations, set your limits, and be content with them both.


Pay it,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

PS - Currently reading... The Elon Musk book is fantastic.


Thanks
Brian Kurtz for the Networking Magic recommendation, Matthew Smith for the Elon Musk book, Sean Stephenson for the Four Agreements, Kevin Kruse for the Honoree Corder recommendation, and to Joe Polish for the intro to David A. Kekich back in 200
7.

My favorite line in the Elon Musk book is not about Elon, but about Kimbal Musk, where one of the employees of Zip2 (Elong and Kimbal's first start-up) says:

Kimbal is unlike anyone they had ever met before" (because of his optimism and enthusiasm).

Not only is Elon one of a kind, but so is Kimbal. What a family!

I had a chance to meet Kimbal at his restaurant a few months back thanks to Yanik Silver, Terra Goeres Ramachandran, and Dush Ramachandran. It's amazing what Kimbal is doing for the Real Food movement.

Thanks to everyone for their book recommendations, wisdom, generosity, connections, and inspiration.

April No Fools Deadlift

You can do it.

You can change.

There's lots of time left in 2017.

Much love!

Today I got serious about a few things...

2B) Jump

Second, I started a new 21-Day Habit Change Challenge. And this one is a doozy. => https://www.facebook.com/groups/PerfectDayChallenge/

Watch for another Livestream on Sunday morning from the TT page:
=> https://www.facebook.com/TurbulenceTrainingFanpage

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
Get drunk. Sleep in. Surf the net. Get lost on Facebook. Go down rabbit holes. Talk poorly of others. Procrastrinate. Ignore spell check. ...

Um, really?

No, not really!

April Fool's!

Don't do those things!

Instead... Focus on your future, stay connected to higher circles, overcome your ego, ask for help, and keep learning and improving because you are here to do something that MATTERS.

You can do it,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

CTT Victory at FBBC and FBS

Wow, what a kick-off to FBS weekend. We have some very big news to report in the TT World.

Check this out!!!

Daniel and Brittney were awarded owner of the year today at World Conference with over 500 owners worldwide.


"It was a huge surprise to us, but has really nothing to do with us and everything with our team and hundreds of clients at both locations.

We are bringing this home for you South Carolina!" - Brittney

#honored #fbbcownerofyear

Image may contain: one or more people, people standing, people on stage and indoor







Woo-Hoo!

And we're just getting started. CTT Nisan Trotter helped kick off the event today, and Daniel & Brittney will be on stage later this weekend.

They're even letting lil' ol me speak sometime, too.

So I'm going to take the day off from training and just do a few walks around San Diego while I rehearse my talks and think about the best particular articulations of my message.

I'll train tomorrow, and yesterday I had a great bench press workout in the hotel gym. Yep, the hotel gym had a bench press! It also had a TRX, and young Brian Kalakay, CTT, was in there dominating the straps.

If you need something fun to do this weekend, try this:

=> 60second metabolic grinders to accelerate fat loss without fancy equipment. Enjoy and CRUSH it this weekend!

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

"When things get tough, sit down and dig deep and figure out your Big Why. Why am I here? You're here for a reason. Push that doubt out.  Think about your Big Why during tough moments. Pain is temporary, but if you quit, it's forever. So just keep going." – Brittney Williams

Stay tough,

TT in San Diego and Morocco and my Garage!

Today is my last day on the farm for a few weeks. Now it's off to Toronto tonight for an early flight to San Diego tomorrow. But I'll still be following my morning rituals. They are important.

In fact, Bally The Dog made a video about your morning routine here:
=> https://www.instagram.com/p/BR5i_MllHMZ/

Then the ol' pooch got dropped off at the kennel for a few days. Grandma will pick him up on Thursday.

The last thing I did before packing up was this great garage gym workout:

1A) Double KB Front Squat - 53x18 ... ties a personal best
1B) KB Swings

2A) DB Split Squat
2B) Plank

That should do me for a nice day off of travel.

Then the exciting times begin on Wednesday afternoon when I'll have a meeting with CTT's Daniel Woodrum and Ray Ortiz. On Thursday I speak at FBBC World Conference and do a 1-Day mastermind, and then two presentations (one on Friday and one on Saturday).

On Saturday I'll be recording a lot of podcasts and videos, and then delivering one of my legendary Perfect Life Workshops on Sunday.

Whew.

Good times!

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
Today is the perfect time to start again. If you've fallen off-track, revisit your goal and re-do your plan. Yes, there will be obstacles. No, it won't be easy. But the path to success IS simple. It's been done by someone worse off than us, with much bigger obstacles, and yet they were somehow able to rise up and succeed. If they could do it, so can you. But you must start now.

Push on,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

PS - Shout out to Certified Turbulence Trainer Steve Agyei...

... for representing TT in Morocco this week at a yoga retreat he's teaching. Thanks Steve for helping us towards our 10 Million Mission.

Spreading TT love all around the world!

Monday Funday Meathead in the Garage

Sunday was one of my legendary Device-Free days. There was no phone, internet or TV... although I did sneak a peak at the television screens in the gym. It's hard to ignore them. Going device-free helped me do a LOT of BIG thinking on Sunday and gave me clarity about this weekend's presentation at FBS and also about some CTT program changes.


Watch the video I made about Device Free days here => https://www.instagram.com/p/BRywYr5FRcr/


Exciting times ahead.


Now for a workout roundup.


Yesterday at the local YMCA I hit this...


1A) Hang Clean

1B) Mobility


2A) Deadlift

2B) Box Jump


3A) Leg Curl

3B) Thick Grip Shrugs


Good times.


And then today it was Funday Monday


1A) Close-Grip DB Incline Press

1B) Band Pull


2A) Pushup Maximus

2B) DB CSR


3A) DB Triceps Extension

3B) DB Hammer Curl


So much fun.


Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

If you stumbled on the weekend, pick yourself up and get right back on track. It's minor damage that can be dealt with. Focus on what you can do today. #perfectdayformula #dominateyourday #controlwhatyoucan


Push on,

Dumbbells and Delays

Final day in Florida, presuming my flight gets out! Yesterday's flights were cancelled, and today's have been delayed, so we'll see what happens.

Of course, I can only use the 3-C Formula in situations like this. I can't do anything about the weather. I can't make planes fly faster.

Instead, I need to:
a) Control what I can... my thoughts, words, and deeds.... my emotions and actions... my energy and focus.
b) Cope with what I can't control... I'm always prepared for delays. I have food, water, work, and thanks to my personal evolution, I now pack patience with me more than ever.
c) Concentrate on what counts... Don't sit around and complain... instead, focus on my legacy. Everyone can do this. No matter how small the action, EVERYTHING matters. Make the right decisions, right now, for your right life. Always.

I'm also grateful for this morning's workout.

1A) DB Chest Press
1B) TRX Row

2A) Chin-Up
2B) Pushup Maximus

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:

"Are you waking up stressed and worried about "feeding the beast"? Your beast might be your social media page, your business, or your biggest vice. What is your beast feeding on? Your ego? Lust of money? Negative energy? Addiction? What is one thing can you do right now to strengthen yourself and starve the beast? Ok, now go and do it!" - Craig Ballantyne

Learn how to wake up with unstoppable drive and joy by trying the habit-changing tips in this FREE BOOK bit.ly/2nFeZ2J


See you soon,

Back Under the Bar in Tampa

After an easy day off yesterday, and some great family time with the Ballantyne's and Marion family, it was back to the gym today.

1A) Squat
1B) Box Jump
1C) Mobility

2A) Split Squat
2B) DB RDL

Tomorrow is a MASSIVE upper body workout with a combination of a bench press workout and then I fly from Tampa to Toronto ... so yes, my arms will be tired.

LOL. I am so funniez!!!

Now let's get back to being serious with training...

... and let's get to work, no excuses!
=> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bukaedq3tKc


Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
Why do we make short term decisions that ruin our chances of long-term success? Why do we eat junk when it makes us feel bad? Why do we watch so many shows when we could be doing something that matters? Why do we hide our goals when we know that getting support helps us succeed? The answer: We are human. But we can fix our flaws and better align our behaviors to match our goals. #BetterEveryDay

Go get better,

Florida Fun and Deadlift Times

The fun times in Florida are still going on, although we've switched coasts. I'm now enjoying a visit to the Tampa area with my friend Joel Marion and his family. On Sunday we drove across Alligator Alley and up the Gulf Coast.

Today I hit Joel's Garage Gym for a great session.

1A) Deadlift
1B) Box Jump

2A) DB Step-Up
2B) Core Training

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
Failing to plan is planning to fail. Minutes wasted are minutes stolen from your family. Build in your fast-start routines so you get off on a head-start, not a slow start. Take your planning as seriously as your dreams... because that is the first step to achieving them. All you need to do is plan ahead and success in every area of life will come to you faster!
#PerfectDayFormula





Plan on and stay strong,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

Miami Meathead Workout Before South Beach Steak

Low key day in Miami on Thursday. No dinners out.

Tonight we go to one of my favorite restaurants, Prime 112.

Today's Miami Meathead workout:

1A) Military Press
1B) Pullup

2A) Bodyweight Row
2B) Cable Abs

3A) Barbell Curl
3B) DB Triceps Extension

Good times.

More work for a bit, then over to South Beach later.

Today's Kickbutt Mindset Tip:
"Do one thing everyday that scares you."

I used to think this was silly advice. And then I wondered why nothing - that mattered - was changing in my life. So I opened up. Dove in. Set my ego aside. Faced my fears. And ended up stronger than ever. Time for you to do the same.


Go get scared,

Craig Ballantyne, CTT

PS - This is great.

1B) Mobility

2A) DB Reverse Lunge

Video Palooza and Front Squats

Today has been a fun video day. I've been screwing a bunch of them up, but I'll get it right eventually.

Besides, I learned a long time ago that mistakes don't matter... and that everything is a learn-able skill, whether you want to get good on video or if you want to stop swearing ... or start juggling... or become a KB guru.

Everything. Is. Learnable.

And YES, you CAN stop swearing.

It's simple.

You can do it.

I did it.

Not cursing won't stop you from making an impact.

After all, there was no swearing in Frozen... or The Golden Girls... and look at the impact they had. :)

Watch this for the help you need to STOP swearing so you can live a virtuous life and have a greater impact on the world:

=> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNvXt5Tuux4

I did that video in one take...

And sometimes my one-take videos turn out terrible.

Like today for instance, I filmed a video with poor sound.

People complained.

So I shrugged it off and filmed it again.

No big deal.

Lesson learned... and now I'll be better on video EVERY time.

Here's the redo... with 3 great tips on how to make the most of your days

=> https://www.instagram.com/p/BRVvC5MF7lS/

Alright, now let's get to some workout... videos. :)

Yes, one more video. It's my garage gym up in Canadia. Good times.

=> https://www.instagram.com/p/BRTPx4AlA9I/

It's not a very good video, so I'll do a better one soon.

Anyways, that was where I did this workout:

1A) Double KB Front Squat
1B) DB Shrug

2A) DB Split Squat
2B) Ball Curl

Tomorrow is an off travel day to Miami with my mom and sister.

Probably do a big walk when we get there... gotta go to Whole Foods to stay on track with nutrition while traveling!
