However, I’m not into hype – I’m more into what works and sharing it with my readers. So, I picked up a copy of Craig’s Turbulence Training 8-Week Bodyweight Program to check it out and see what all the hype is about.

Initial Impressions of TT

My first impressions of the program were pretty much that it’s short – almost too short. BUt, after I read the first few pages I started to see the wisdom in Craig’s approach to writing this book.

Personally, I don’t want to have to slog through page after page of exercise theory and endless yammering about how such-and-such university study said this, etc.

That’s one of the things I like about Craig Ballantyne’s book – it doesn’t waste time, but instead gets right to the workouts. Cool – I don’t have to read any boring yammerisms on the theory of exercise.

Another Thing I Like About Turbulence Training…

When it comes to exercise routines, in my opinion, shorter is better. That’s another thing I like about this program… all the routines can easily be done in under 30 minutes.

That works out perfectly for a quick early morning workout, or working out on a lunch break or at the park on the way home from work.

“But Mike… Does Turbulence Training Require Me to Buy Any Equipment?”

Nope. All you need is a place to exercise and do the cardio routines in the manual. To me, that’s one of the best things about this workout.

Heck, you don’t even need to belong to a gym – you can do this stuff at the park, in your garage, your backyard, or even in the stairwell of your apartment building.

Drawbacks to the Program

It’s going to cost you $40 clams. That’s not really a drawback in my book, since two months membership at the local big-box gym costs you more than that. Plus, you have to drive to the gym, find a place to park, wait on equipment, and so on.

Also, it’s in a book format, and I know some people prefer videos. However, all the photos and explanations are pretty clear, so there’s really no need for a video to go along with it.

A Recap…

Okay here goes:

Pros -

• Right to the point, no time wasted on stuff you don’t need to know -
• Workouts can be done in under 30 minutes -
• No need to go to the gym or to buy any special equipment -0

Cons -

• Price is $40 (like I said, it’s MUCH less than a gym membership)
• It’s in a book format, so there’s no videos to go along with it (but you won’t need them anyway)

All-in-all, I think Turbulence Training by Craig Ballantyne is a good buy for someone who is bored with the gym and who wants a quick workout routine that will burn fat.
