Turbulence Training is a program that is based on the research and personal training experience of Craig Ballantyne.  Mr. Ballantyne is a certified strength and conditioning specialist (CSCS), which is the most respected certification in the industry, and has been published in magazines like Men’s Fitness, Oxygen, Maximum Fitness, etc.  Basically, there is no question that he knows his stuff. The foundation of the Turbulence training system is the workout. Turbulence Training comes with just over 6 months of pre-planned workout routines. This really takes the guesswork out for you.  The workouts are intense workouts that start with a quick warmup, then focus on resistance training and finish off with intervals.  Through interval training and resistance training, Turblence Training is designed to boost your metabolism for the entire day so that you will shed more fat than during a slow cardio workout.

What I Like About Turbulence Training

As I mentioned, the Turbulence Training program comes with over 6 months of pre-planned workouts.  That really is like a road-map for fitness.  The workouts are sectioned into 4 week blocks, after which you change to a new one.  Mr. Ballantyne states that variety is an important aspect of any training program. At around the 4 week mark the body starts to adapt to the demands you are pacing on it.  So, if you stayed on the same workout for 3 months straight, you would not see much change.  With Turbulence Training you will switch up your workout every 3-4 weeks, each time throwing some fresh demands at your body and reigniting your metabolism.  In this way you’ll avoid plateaus that can halt your fat loss and strength goals.

It is no secret that Turbulence Training is about high-intensity workouts. Mr. Ballantyne believes that high-intensity is the best way to elevate your metabolism and that steady-state cardio can actually hinder your efforts. However, the phrase “high-intensity” can be intimidating to a newcomer though, thinking that high-intensity means a workout that only an Olympian could complete. Intensity, however, is totally relative.. and depends completely on your level. What is “high-intensity” to me might not be very intense for you and vice-versa.

Thankfully, Turbulence Training provides plenty of workouts for a variety of levels. A total beginner who is overweight and doesn’t get much physical activity can start with the Introductory Program in the main manual and then progress forward. This is a bodyweight-only program that will prepare your body for the future workouts. The worst thing you can do as a woman embarking on a workout program for the first time is a highly-repetitive, high-volume cardio program as you can set yourself up for overuse injuries that can sideline your fitness quest before it really even gets started. An experienced lifter who hasn’t excised recently can start with the Intermediate Workout. And an advanced trainee who is currently training can jump right in with the Original Turbulence Training Workout.

When you’ve topped out of the most advanced of the Turbulence Training for Fat Loss workouts in the main  manual you can progress to any of the bonus workouts. There is a bonus workout especially for putting the final touches on your new feminie physique: the Turbulence Training for Women workout.  There are also plenty of other bonus workouts to keep you busy for quite some time, including the DumbBell-BodyWeight Fusion Workout, the 30-Day Advanced Fat Loss program, and the Advanced Fusion Fat Loss 4-Week Program.

Who Will Benefit the Most?

A busy woman, who doesn’t have access to a lot of equipment will benefit the most from Turbulence Training. The workouts are prescribed for 3 times per week and never take longer than 45 minutes and can be trimmed down by cutting back on the number of sets if you are truly busy. But you should ask yourself if you are truly busy, or just creating things to do to avoid the important. It takes self discipline to follow any fitness program, but one that only takes 2 hours and 15 minutes a week and can be done at home seems much more achievable than one that would requires hours every day. Granted, it takes some extra motivation sometimes to get started at home. Its so easy to skip it when something else comes up. So it is important to set aside time in your schedule and be diligant about protecting that time as an investment in your health. Also, a workout partner is great for accountability. But another thing that I really like is that Mr. Ballantyne’s book contains a contract. Yes it may seem a bit dorky, but it can be helpful to make a show of your commitment to follow through with the program.

If I Had to Complain…

The one thing that I feel that Turbulence Training fails to emphasize enough is the importance of a solid nutritional plan to rid your body of excess body fat. Ok, it doesn’t fail to say that a solid diet is important, as it definitely makes the point that you need to eat less to see results. However, it just doesn’t provide as much nutritional advice as I would have hoped for in a fitness book. But to be fair, it isn’t marketing itself as a diet book, it IS marketed as an exercise book.

Also, as a bit of a weights-junkie, it is a bit difficult to get used to Turbulence Training’s minimal equipment/bodyweight only approach. There is just something about a heavy deadlift that makes me feel pretty awesome. At most, Turbulence Training workouts use some dumbbells, a bench and a stability ball, but also comes with a 4 week bodyweight-only routine. Going bodyweight-only can be a great change-up in the routine of seasoned lifter like myself. It can help unload the joints and get the body doing some fun and challenging movements. Going bodyweight-only can also be a great starting point for someone who hasn’t been doing any lifting. If you are creative, and Mr. Ballantyne’s manual certainly has no shortage of that, you can get an excellent workout with no equipment. And you really should get a handle on your own body before you think about adding weights.

In Conclusion…

The workout information in Turbulence Training is impressive in its extrent and clarity.  There are so many programs and exercises that your training will stay fresh for quite some time.  You could not get that many programs designed for you by a trainer of Mr. Ballantyne’s caliber for less than hundreds of dollars.  All the exercises come with full instructions and are diagrammed with photos of real people. There is also a 1 hour audio file that you can listen to for the basics of the program if you get tired of reading or are more of an audio learner.

Make no mistake, Turbulence Training is a very serious training program that is based on solid research and experience.  It is not for wimps.  If you are expecting to read or chit-chat during your workouts then you should avoid Turbulence Training.  Don’t let that scare you though.  As long as you are ready to commit yourself (remember the contract!), you can start at a level appropriate to you.

If you’ve hit a plateau in your current workouts and are looking to change things up OR if you don’t know where to start and need a detailed roap-map to fitness, then I recommend you check out Turbulence Training.
