Turbulence Training Author Interview

Craig Ballantyne, the author of Turbulence Training, bodyweight fat loss training manual, and contributor to Mens Health magazine stopped in for a little chat a month ago and it’s now being partially released to readers. This Craig Ballantyne interview is ongoing, so be sure to register on the last page for updates.

Everyone’s familiar with the term “turbulence” as it applies to flying. You know to buckle your seatbelt when you hit turbulence because the airplane has to work very hard to re-position itself in the air.

This is the same theory behind “Turbulence Training“, a combination of resistance training and interval training designed to lead you to the promised land of single-digit body fat.

Craig couldn’t be more clear about the need for variety and change in your workouts as well as the critical importance of weight training for building and keeping muscle in any successful fat loss program. Turbulence Training is just that. Craig has also been credited with the 300 workout that the actors for the movie 300 followed, but as it turns out, he didn’t, it was Mark Twight of Gym Jones (who I want to train with incidentally).

The original 300 workout, will kick your ass…

How To Eat As A Sugar Burner

I should be clear that the sugar burner and fat burner inner biochemistry imbalances are not the same as you would traditionally think of in a weight loss program. These are specific imbalances and do not refer to ability to burn fat. I did the simple point and click test about a week ago and got my results back a few days later showing that I am indeed currently a Sugar Burner. Here’s how I’ve changed my diet in the past few days based on the guidance of :Kristine, my Ultra Homeopathic Physician.

First of all, a caveat

These are my words and my explanation. I’ve already found out that when I post something in regards to this, :Kristine gives me shit and quickly corrects me. It’s great, I love it. I write what I think I know, and then find out exactly what I don’t know, fix it and learn a great deal in the process. So, you will probably see some comments below where she’s gently guided me (ie: smacked me) to change my words, lol.

From what I understand, the labels Sugar Burner and Fat Burner are not metabolic type’s, they’re imbalances in your inner biochemistry. It’s an imbalance that needs to be corrected. Once corrected, your body will work more efficiently and the guidelines can be changed again. So, the program of food outlined for my current imbalance (yes, current imbalance – because once corrected, I can change my foods again) is temporary, for me. I’ve already booked a Gold test for hands on inner biochemistry work and exact supplementation advice. That’s later on in the month.

A few of us from this blog and community have already done the point and click tests. Jessie has done it, Darlene had to wait 72 hours because she had taken a Tylenol, Michele has done it and many more are getting on board.

The reason for the test is simple.

You won’t know which program to follow unless you know if you’re s sugar burner or a fat burner. Once you know, you eat for your type, get balanced and get results.

Simple

See, you could be eating the foods you think you should be eating based on what you know about health, nutrition or the latest well marketed weight loss program. You may even be eating foods that don’t appeal to you because you’ve been told they’re healthy.

However, those foods might be based on the authors inner biochemistry, and not yours.

There are a lot of weight loss programs and people get results for sure, but if you want to get results for sure, without guesswork, and get it right the first time with less effort, then take the test.

There, that said, I can move on to how I’m implementing my Sugar Burner program from :Kristine.

Here’s how I changed my diet

:Kristine :Earl – The Inner Biochemist – My Passionate Mission: Healthcare Revolution

The Inner Biochemist

The Simple Solution

My Mission–is–My Passion:

– Healthcare Revolution

listen to my MISSION here…The Full Version

homeopath doctor

…We don’t experience migraines because of a deficiency in Tylenol 3.

…We don’t experience depression because of a deficiency in Prozac.

…Our child doesn’t have ADHD because they were born without Ritalin.

…We don’t experience cancer because of deficiencies in “Chemo”…

My mission is to change individual health care. I would like to see everybody understanding real health. What is Real health? Is it the absence of symptoms? No. Health is when a man becomes natural. What is natural? It is easy spontaneous and without effort. The word “SAHAJ” in Sanskrit means “what is natural, what is innate, in anything’s being.” When you are your natural self and don’t have any obsession or compulsion, you are not bothered about the results of your actions. That is what health is.

.can you see it?.

I hope you have been setting goals for yourself.
I hope that you have been WRITING THEM DOWN and reading them often. I hope that if you haven’t started, you will right now!!! hahhahaha
I can not stress the importance of goal setting enough. I always thought that I was goal orientated in the past, I knew what I wanted to accomplish, and left it at that. They really became passing thoughts that I would beat myself up for later. It is important to SEE your goals!!!! It’s important to see YOURSELF at your goals…
I know I wouldn’t play the lottery if the undetermined jackpot was worth less than the ticket.

To get myself to where I know I belong I am willing to put in the effort….I am willing to , learn, to try, to fuckin sweat!!! And that is really the key factor to achieving any goal you set out for yourself….you gotta taste it.

Cardio is getting me results. There is no question that the increase in activity has had an incredible impact on my body. I want more than that, I want to see results faster, faster, faster!!! I want to see what those machines over there do!!!
I received three personal training sessions with my gym membership and decided to put them to use.
“I will just get them to show me the machines and that’s it” I told myself.

As soon as I talked with Diana on the phone I knew we had chemistry. It wasn’t awkward, it was a “cool, lets hang out on Tuesday” feel. We hit it off right away, sharing the same sense of humor and sarcastic edge. Diana is absolutely full of life and very energetic.

Oh, she’s mine for sure….BOOKED…
I’m soooo worth it!!!

Weight Loss And Fitness Expert Interviews

If you had the chance to ask any expert in the field of weight loss, fitness, muscle building or strength training, what would you ask? What would you want to know.

Lets say you wanted to ask Tom Venuto a question. Would you email him? would you join his membership forum and hope to hear from him? How would you connect with him to ask that ONE BURNING question?

Does it even interest you to be able to hear from these mentors and role models? To me it is. I believe that the easiest way to get where you want to go is to follow the map laid out by someone who’s been there before you, learn how they think and then duplicate what they accomplished. It’s the easiest way to skip what doesn’t work and go straight to what DOES work.

How about legendary bodybuilder Frank Zane? Frank won Mr Olympia in 1977, 78 and 79. What would you want to know about his training now that he’s in his 60’s. Did you know that

Only three people in the history of professional bodybuilding ever defeated Arnold Schwarzenegger. Frank is one of those three people.

What about Dr Barry Sears, or Harvey Diamond? What would you want to ask these Nutrition experts about your diet? or your favorite foods? You get the idea.
