I've just spent another weekend explaining what Turbulence Training
is to new potential clients. By the end of the day I had my speech
memorized, and decided to turn it into a new article for you called,
"The 5 Laws of New School Fat Loss".
Here goes...
Turbulence Training is a structured routine that I came up with
that allows you to get the most results in the least amount of
time, no matter what your goals.
This revolutionary new workout system evolved from both scientific
principles as well as personal experience.
And it originally came to me in a dream in University. (Just kidding.)
The truth is that during my graduate years at University, I was
searching for an efficient and effective way to stay lean while I
was stuck in the lab for up to 16 hours a day doing my thesis.
Obviously, I didn't have a lot of time to exercise...
So I based a new program on what I had read in hundreds of fat loss
research studies, as well as my countless past workouts that I had
recorded faithfully over the years.
And from that research and from my own personal workouts and results,
Turbulence Training was invented and have given rise to the 5 Laws
of New School Fat Loss.
Law #1) Use intense resistance training
NOTE: This doesn't just mean lifting heavy weights...it could also
mean doing difficult bodyweight exercises or even explosive exercises
(like I use in the TT circuits).
Here's why...
Intense resistance training stimulates what is called muscle protein
turnover. This is important for two reasons:
a) It causes your body to burn extra calories and belly fat when you
are not training (so while you recover, etc.).
b) It stimulates muscle re-modeling.
That means it will help you maintain your muscle (and sculpt your
body) even while you are eating fewer calories and burning fat.
However, if you rely only on light weight & high reps, you won't
keep that muscle and your metabolism will decrease.
Law #2) Switch from slow cardio to interval training.
Research shows that interval training is more effective for burning
belly fat than regular cardio - even when you don't change your diet!
Interval training is what separates people with 20% fat from those
men and women with the lean, athletic, sexy abs body type.
Interval training also builds better sport conditioning and
"everyday fitness" that is more practical in life.
For example, how often do you ever need to run 5 miles? Pretty much
never, right?
But how often do you need to climb a few flights of stairs or chase
one of your kids? Those are every day demands...and will be best
improved by interval training, not 30 minutes on the elliptical machine.
Law #3) Use non-competing supersets to do more work in less time.
By using the Turbulence Training system of non-competing supersets,
where you do 2 unrelated exercises back to back, you'll avoid
muscle fatigue and get more work done in less time.
Therefore, you'll burn more calories compared to traditional workouts.
This is one of the major reasons Turbulence Training is so efficient
and effective.
Law #4) Use Total Body Workouts
Skip the classic steroid-bodybuilder method of doing one body part
per day. That will only give you overuse injuries and a big body set
up for more injuries & chronic pain in the future.
Not what you want, right?
Of course not. So switch to three total-body workouts per week,
using a variety of exercises, and when possible, using a variety of
training methods - from dumbbells to kettlebells to bodyweight
exercises. That's what you'll get in the latest TT workouts here:

Rule #5) Change Your Workout Every 4 Weeks
The Turbulence Training workouts are changed every 4 weeks, and
sometimes every 3 weeks for advanced results.
Why?
To avoid the dreaded fat loss plateau. If you've been doing the same
workout over and over for more than 4 weeks, your results will slow
down and eventually come to a complete stop.
You MUST change your program...and that's why I create not just one,
but TWO new Turbulence Training workouts every month for TT Members,
so that they will always have a new program to keep their fat loss
results moving along.
In fact, the Turbulence Training System is simple to adapt and easy
to modify for the creation of an endless number of workouts - a
great thing to know if you are a personal trainer or simply someone
that loves the body transformation results of a fast workout.
Whew!
Now a lot of this info was new - and even shocking - to the people I
spoke too yesterday. They were still a little skeptical. And that's
fine, it's totally natural.
So I suggested they try out the program for a few weeks, and you can
do that too with the 21-day trial here:
>>> TAKE THE TURBULENCE TRAINING $5 Trial <<<
For less than 5 bucks (that's less than the price of an apple, a
banana, and a water here at the hotel!), you can try out the 5 Laws
of Fat Loss and the Turbulence Training program for 3 weeks.
I promise you'll love the program and the fast fat loss results you
are getting. And if for any reason you don't, just let me know and
you won't pay a penny more.
Say goodbye to the old-school workouts and fat loss plateaus and use
these 5 laws of new school fat loss to finally get results.
Now you know what really works,
