Personal Trainer Tries Turbulence Training

I had no idea what this program was about the first time I heard about it. If you have ever seen one of those vibration machines you stand on at the gym… then you know what my first impression of Turbulence Training was when I heard about it haha. Turns out I was way off.

So what exactly is Turbulence Training then? And is it effective at what it promises to do—melt fat like nobody’s business?

Who Created Turbulence Training?

The creator of this product is named Craig Ballantyne. He got his Master’s of Science in Exercise Physiology at McMaster University. He writes regularly for Men’s Health magazine and is also a member of the trianing Advisory Board for Oxygen Magazine. On top of that he has contributed to GQ, Maxim, Men’s Fitness and more.

I promise the fact that he is a fellow Canuck and that I also attended McMaster for the first two years (’03-’04) of my undergrad will have no influence on this review.

So now you are probably asking…

How the Heck Does Turbulence Training Work?

Turbulence Training is a fitness plan that is based on a relatively new way of thinking in weight-loss—that to really start melting the pounds off, you need to focus on interval and strength training. There are two main facets to this program that Ballantyne focuses on, and this is something that I also advocate with my own clients. They are…

One: Slow, steady aerobic activity is no match for interval training when it comes to melting fat quickly.

Two: Doing high-rep, low weight sets comes a distant second to performing a more intense, higher weight, set of 8 reps when it comes to burning calories.

With these two main pillars, Ballantyne provides a comprehensive workout plan with Turbulence Training that can be followed easily regardless of your fitness experience level.

What I Liked About Turbulence Training

It destroys two huge myths about fat loss that trainers like myself have been railing against for years—that to lose fat you need to do long sessions of slow, boring cardio, and that you need to do high reps/low weight at the gym. He also provides the science to prove it. Huge plus.

The workout program comes with workouts for both beginners and those more experienced around the gym.

This program is very similar to what I provide my own clients. I am a huge, huge fan of interval training. Not only does it melt blubber faster than anything else on the planet, but it also gives you that endorphin rush (also known as “runner’s high”) that leaves you feeling buzzing and amazing after working out.

Craig does these workouts himself. You can follow the workouts that he does himself at his blog. Rarely do you see the creator of a product actually doing the workouts day-to-day, and this lends a ton of credibility to his workout program in my eyes.

You get it right away. Literally within seconds of completing the transaction online I had my own copy of Turbulence Training on the desktop of my computer.

As always, I look for products and services that are willing to put their money where their mouth is. Turbulence Training comes with a 60-day, no questions asked money back guarantee.

Specifically designed to be done at home, which means if you are time-constrained (like most of us these days it seems) you can bang off these workouts at home without worrying about having to commute back and forth from the gym or having to pay for membership fees.

At less than forty dollars, it’s a steal. Easily one of the best-priced weight-loss plans available.

The workout schedule is limited and to the point—three sessions of 45 minutes per week. As mentioned above, for people on a time schedule, this is a big bonus.

The testimonials on his site are from some of the most reputable people in the industry. One is a training advisor from Men’s Health magazine, and another is from Adam Campbell, who used to be the Fitness Editor for Men’s Fitness magazine.

What I Didn’t Like About Turbulence Training

My only real complaint about this program was the lack of video for the workout program, which might be a problem for the absolute novice.

My Verdict: A+

Would I recommend Turbulence Trainer. Heck yes I would. There is no gimiicks, no fasting, no crazy diets or weird workout schedules. This is the same approach I have taken with hundreds of clients over the past six years so I know this stuff works. Plus you’re paying him a fraction of the price for the fitness plan than you would be paying me
