Belly Off Transformation...

There's a lot of talk about the comeback kids these days in the paper, but as a Canadian, I don't really understand the whole scene. You're voting on who to vote for?

Anyways, there's a better set of comeback kids to talk about...and those are the guys in the Mens Health Belly Off Transformation Contest.

Here are some comments from the guys going through the MH Belly Off program...

"Thanks for the motivation Harry, I appreciate it! You're right, my body is used to sitting behind a desk 8 hours a day and then sitting around or doing some light playing with my kids in the evening.

This is the first time I've done a program/routine without thinking I'm going to be perfect at it right away. I used to expect quick results from easy exercises, but I know that can't happen and it's going to take some hard work. I don't have a problem with putting in the work, it's just setting my expectations properly that I need to work on."
NoMoreFatDad

"Great attitude guys! I have much of the same problem. I haven't been on a regular workout routine since college (about 10 yrs ago) I'm just glad I've decided to make this change. Keep up the great work!"

Interval Training Workouts

You can do interval training on a bike, treadmill, elliptical, stairmaster, etc.

Here are two interval workouts I regularly use...

Interval Workout A
• Warm-up for 3 minutes getting progressively more intense with time.
• Perform an interval by exercising for 30 seconds at a very hard pace (at a subjective 8/10 level of effort).
• Follow that with "active rest" for 30 seconds by exercising at a slow pace (at a subjective 3/10 level of effort).
• Repeat for a total of 6 intervals.
• Finish with 4 minutes of very low intensity (3/10) exercise for a cool-down.

Interval Workout B
• Warm-up for 5 minutes.
• Perform an interval by exercising for 60 seconds at a very hard pace (at a subjective 8/10 level of effort).
• Follow that with "active rest" for 60 seconds by exercising at a slow pace (at a subjective 3/10 level of effort).
• Repeat for a total of 6 intervals.
• Finish with 5 minutes of very low intensity (3/10) exercise for a cool-down.

Regarding the intensity levels...

A 3/10 would be a light walk, a 6/10 would be your regular cardio intensity, and a 10/10 intensity would be sprinting for your life.

Turbulence Training Goes Hollywood (or Hollywood Goes Turbulence Training)

Last night we went to see Charlie Wilson's War, since it featured the only Hollywood actress I have ever trained. Her name is Rachel Nichols, and if you've watched the movie she is one of Tom Hanks' beautiful secretaries. (And it's a pretty good movie if you have time to check it out...).

Rachel trained with me back in the summer of 2006 while she was filming another flick here in Toronto, and here's what she had to say about her workouts with me.

"Craig's workouts were fun and challenging - I didn't dread going to the gym and I wasn't overly sore after our sessions. Much like my trainer in LA, Craig's workouts were always different: the exercises, the supersets, the weights...the combination of elements always varied and, therefore, I never got bored or felt like I was in a workout rut. And my co-stars couldn't believe how great my arms looked, thanks to Craig helping me do my first chin-up. Thanks Craig!"

Rachel also trains with Hollywood's hottest trainer, Valerie Waters, when she is back in LA. And to be honest, 99% of the credit for Rachel's great arms and body go to Rachel and Valerie, but I was very happy to help Rachel do her first chinup ever...just proving you can be superstar-hot and still do high-intensity resistance training.

In fact, I used Rachel's workouts as the foundation for some of my Turbulence Training for Women bonus workouts.

So ladies, forget about slow cardio and pink dumbells...get working hard on bodyweight exercises in your fat burning workouts,

P.S. Does Turbulence Training really work?

"At the end of week one, I lost 3.5 pounds and I was feeling great. Yesterday was the end of week two and I lost 3 more pounds! Six and a half pounds in two weeks and I feel outstanding. Not the least bit tired or weak. I've never been so enthusiastic about each workout. I didn't bother to take a 'before' photo, but I may still do that. I would have touched base with you sooner, but with work, school, training, etc., I'm always pressed for time. And of course, that's what makes Turbulence Training such a convenient program."
Chuck Fager

"I'm 25 and was seriously overweight at the start of this year. I've been doing the TT for Fat Loss Workouts and after 5 months of training. I've lost nearly 28lbs. I want to take this opportunity to thank Craig for making your knowledge so accessible and your articles and blogs that not only make us think about our lifestyles, but encourage us to change them for better health."

The Bodyweight 1000 Workout

With friends like me, you're not going to need enemies in 2008. I've got some tough fat burning workouts planned for you this year.

And today, we tried the "first draft" of the upcoming Bodyweight 1000 workout.

Frankly, it is just too darned hard to unleash on the world.

Coincidentally, I finished it in about 55 minutes. Exactly twice as long as it required for me to finish my Turbulence Training Bodyweight 500 workout, the first time I did it. But there is no comparison, this one is 5 times as tough as the 500.

It might even have been the hardest workout I've ever done.

So back to the drawing board...I'm going switch the order around (becuase the workout had me sprinting out of the gate a little too fast), modify a couple of exercises to less intense versions, and we'll get a few more testers to give this a go.

Then I think we'll have something for you, either for the February or March TT workout of the month.

In the meantime, get yourself in fighting shape with Turbulence Training and enter the Turbulence Training Transformation Contest.  

It was the 100 pushup set that did me in (after I had already done 300 reps of other exercises),

Common Turbulence Training Questions

Q: I just wondered where I should start with the Turbulence Training workouts. In the past, I would consider myself at least an Intermediate, but it has been over 3 years since I really worked out regularly. So, since I'm so out-of-shape right
now, should I start with the Beginner program to let my body catch up to my mind slowly?

Answer:
Yes, you must start with the beginner program.

Most of your results at this time will come from the right fat loss nutrition, so no need to overdo the exercise. Avoid that big mistake and you'll still be going strong in 3-4 weeks from now and beyond. But start too fast too soon, and that is what causes many people to give up quickly.


Q:Hi just bought your Turbulence Training Deluxe Package yesterday and am very excited. I have lost about 55 lbs on my own over the last year and have found myself at a plateau (I have about another 50ish to go). I have been working out with a fitness group over the last 3 or 4 months and have been lossing girth but no weight. I am leaning towards skipping the intro level and starting with the beginner but I don't want to do a level too easy/hard for me. What should the progression be thru all the different workouts I bought in the package? Is there an rule of thumb for deciding how hard you are working in the interval training (what is a 3 out of 10)? Anyway thats it for now.

Answer:
Hi!

I think you would be ready for the beginner level, not the very first intro phase. Tempo is covered in the manual, and is the pace of the exercise. 2 seconds to lower, 1 second to come back up.

Go in order through the main manual, then you can use the other programs at your desire.

As for interval intensity, a 3 out of 10 is a walk in the park. A 10 out of 10 is running or biking or rowing for your life. A 6 out of 10 is normal cardio.

Men's Health Belly Off Program Using the Bodyweight 500

So back in early December I was down in Emmaus, PA, at Men's Health filming workout videos for the 2008 Belly Off Program.

All these videos and workouts can be found on the Men's Health Website HERE

We actually stretched the original 4-week Bodyweight 500 program into an 8 week program...and each week I give you a "Rah-rah" pep talk. Its worth checking out the site for that alone...

We filmed them all back to back, ad-lib, no script. Some I did in one take, some required 4-5 takes. It really sucks to give a 2-minute speech and then screw up the closing, and half to do it all over again...

The week 1 video is kind of lame, but I become more animated each week. Watch, laugh, listen, learn, whatever. Enjoy!

Real Life Fat Loss Story

**************
Craig ...

Just a brief note to thank you for the Turbulence Training program, and to update you on my fantastic progress to date.

I thought I knew a bit about how to train to lose fat and get in shape ... but Turbulence Training really set me straight.

I love how your training program keeps my body guessing and constantly having to adjust to the workouts. The fact that Turbulence Training is easy to perform at home, and is convenient time wise is an added bonus.

Turbulence Training was just the kick start I needed to begin the process of transforming my body from Obese to Fit. The strategies and philosophies you teach will lead me to achieve the body of my dreams in no time.

Check out my progress in just the first 9 weeks. Results don't lie.

Dec 2007 Turbulence Training Testimonials

Here are our 2 winners of the best Turbulence Training testimonials for Dec 2007.

Each winner will receive a 1-year Platinum TT Membership.

"Craig thank you for finally putting some sanity into health advice. I have been going to the gym for 20 years and have always had the same basic routines given to me, with predictable non results. Even with a whole room full of weight lifting equipment and cardio machines I have never had the success I have had in the last 2 weeks. My work out equipment is 2
dumbbells, a barbell, a bench and some hilly walking trails.

In 4 weeks I have lost 4 inches from my waist and 15 pounds in fat. I only exercise for 30 minutes at a time but with high intensity. I walk every day and do 3 weight sessions a week. I am on the 30 day Fat Loss Workout program. I am very motivated because I can see results so quickly. Of course I am following your nutrition guidelines as well. Really happy with
the program and the advice, highly recommend it to anyone who is looking for fast, no nonsense, sustainable fat loss. Thanks again."
Ray McDonald, Australia 

"I am 45 years old and have been a full time Firefighter/Paramedic for 18 years, so staying in shape is critical for me. Although I have always maintained a high level of fitness, thanks to 8 years in the Marine Corps prior to my Fire Service career, I found that my workouts had become stale and it was becoming harder to maintain my desired body weight. I needed to revamp my workout routine. Turbulence Training was the answer. The workouts are fast and work well with my work schedule at the fire department. Turbulence Training has given me the boost I need and I am sure will help me achive my goal of a 30 year career."

"I lost 14 pounds this month and the weight is just falling off me. My wife says I now look like when we first met and I still have more to go.  I can fit into my old jeans again which is a big deal for me.  I just cut back on starches and bread and do your routine 2-3 times a week.  I never thought in a million years that just 10-20 minutes of weight training followed by some cardio would get me such steady results.  I even cheat a bit on the weekends."

#1 Thing You Need to Do for Fat Burning in 2008

Things are starting to heat up - people aren't waiting for New Year's to start losing fat. And this is something I like to see. So let's get you started on the right track...if you have some time off this week, sit down and plan out your goals (fitness, family, finance, & fun) for 2008 this week.

After all, what is the best thing someone can do in 2008 if they want to lose fat?

It's planning. You have to put a plan together.

Get a good workout plan that suits your lifestyle, physical interests, time constraints, equipment availability, and training history. Don't do a heavy cardio program if you don't have a lot of time and hate doing cardio.

If you only have time for 3 short workouts per week, then grab Turbulence Training, the workout you can do at home or the gym with minimal equipment.

At the same time, plan your nutrition. Figure out what eating schedule works for you. Address your weak points and work around them. Get rid of all the bad foods in your house and replace them
with good, fat fighting foods.

Look at your schedule and determine the two best times each week to spend an hour or so preparing your meals for the next coming days (for example, an hour on Sunday and an hour on Wednesday).

If you have your plan set out, all you have to do is follow it. Once you commit, stick to it. Don't bounce from program to program, or diet to diet.

You'll even benefit from planning your workout music in your Ipod, making sure you never grow bored of this vital motivation. Or plan to go to the gym when other people striving for the same goals will be there. Surround yourself with social support.

Also, plan in "mental breaks", such as cheat meals (once per week), and fun workouts - such as taking a long hike on the weekend or replacing one workout every month with a sport or workout with a friend.

This plan will be your guide to success. Do it once and you don't have to spend mental energy on it every week.

Plan for success and you'll lose fat permanently in 2008.

PS - Turbulence Training is the best fat loss plan in the world.

"Craig's workouts were fun and challenging - I didn't dread going to the gym and I wasn't overly sore after our sessions. Much like my trainer in LA, Craig's workouts were always different: the
exercises, the supersets, the weights...the combination of elements always varied and, therefore, I never got bored or felt like I was in a workout rut. And my co-stars couldn't believe how great my
arms looked, thanks to Craig helping me do my first chin-up. Thanks Craig!"
Rachel Nichols, actress, "Charlie Wilson's War"

"I have been in love with Turbulence Training ever since I started. I am 6'3", 28/M and my starting weight/body fat% was 208 pounds and 18.4% body fat. After 22 weeks of TT, I am now down to 190 lbs and 10.8% body fat."
Nick Walters, New York, NY

"I've done just about everything from Turbo Jam, P90X, to trying to piece together my own workout, but didn't get the results I've seen with Turbulence Training."
Andrea Dunham

"Been using TT 4 years, love the newsletters. I use the 2K3 all the time, started off with the original ages ago. I lost 35 pounds in around 2 years & i'm 38 years old!"

Transformation Cheat Meals

On Tuesday, I interviewed New Jersey transformation expert John Alvino for one of my New Year's bonuses (this will go out to all TT clients, past and present). Today, I'm flying down to New Jersey to train at John's gym with Jay Ferruggia.

Now John and I covered 2 important points in his interview regarding what is known as a "cheat meal". You'll see these recommended in almost every diet plan, and as John says, the cheat meal is there largely for a psychological break from dieting.

Here are John's 2 rules about cheat meals...

1) John includes one cheat meal per week in your diet program. And the cheat meal ends, as John says, "when your ass leaves the seat". That means it is one sitting. No going back for seconds. So if you order a pizza, eat till you are full, but once you get up from the table, that's it. No more pizza. Throw it out, give it away, whatever. The cheating is over.

2) If you are a smaller person, or have a slow metabolism, John will often cap the cheat meal at a certain calorie level. For example, in the above situation, you would be allowed 500 calories of pizza. Once you eat 500 calories worth of your cheat meal, that's it. Get rid of the rest and get back on your plan.

In the "Transformation Experts Bonus", I cover cheat meals with 2 other experts, Erik Ledin and Brad Pilon. Look for their opinions in the bonus ebook available Dec. 31st through Turbulence Training and www.TTmembers.com
