Full Review
There is no doubt that the most popular eBooks are really very effective at helping people lose weight and tone up.
Craig Ballantyne’s Turbulence Training for Abs system is one that combines home fitness workouts and nutrition advice to help you burn fat and build muscle. It concentrates on building muscle, intensive cardio and nutrition.
The Turbulence Training book starts out on the right foot. Whereas some systems throw you straight into a new workout program Craig Ballantyne first asks you to take body measurements and do a lifestyle review. This is essential to help you monitor your progress and make the fastest fitness gains.
The next section is on setting your goals. This is all very important to help you learn to monitor your own progress, so that you know when you achieve a new milestone in your weight loss journey. Motivation is the biggest stumbling block for many people who start a home fitness program and these steps are really important to help you create a structure and set goals that you really want to aim for.
Once your goals are set, the bulk of the book is then dedicated to the workouts. For each group of exercises there are three levels: Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced. The 3 groups of exercises are:
- Turbulence Training Home Abdominal Workouts
- Turbulence Training Home Ab Workouts (3 advanced phases)
- Turbulence Training Abs 300 Workouts
The Turbulence Training system uses supersets and trisets, which simply means that rather than perform a single set of exercises and then resting, the sets of exercises are performed in quick succession, either 2 sets together (superset) or 3 sets together (triset).
Example of a Beginners Superset
1A) Bodyweight Squat – 8 reps
• No rest.
1B) Pushup Plank – 20 second hold
• Rest 1 minute & repeat 1 more time for a total of 2 supersets.
Example of a Beginners Triset
2A) Step-up – 8 reps per side
• No rest.
2B) Stability Ball Leg Curl – 12 reps
• No rest.
2C) Bird Dog – 6 reps per side
• Rest 1 minute & repeat 1 more time for a total of 2 trisets.
Example of an Advanced Superset
1A) DB Bulgarian Split Squat – 8 reps per side
• No rest.
1B) Spiderman Pushup or normal Pushup – 10 reps per side or 15 reps
• Rest 1 minute & repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 supersets.
Example of an Advanced Triset
3A) Stability Ball Rollout – 10 reps
• No rest.
3B) Cross-Body Mountain Climber – 10 reps per side
• No rest.
3C) Side Plank – 30 second hold per side
• Rest 1 minute & repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 trisets.
These exercise all work well together and are designed to maximise fat loss while also toning and building muscle. All the exercise are explained with photo examples in the book.
Craig Ballantyne provides a lot of useful information on exactly how to lift weights too, and specifically how to lift in his system. For example, with Turbulence Training you do not lift to failure.
Craig Ballantyne is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist (CSCS) and has written for many of the leading health and fitness publications, including Men’s Health, Men’s Fitness, Oxygen, Maximum Fitness, and Muscle and Fitness Hers. He says that he developed the Turbulence Training system specifically for busy people who need to get the most from their workouts to help reduce belly fat and get toned.
Turbulence Training is well respected in the fitness community. Jillian Michaels, famous for her role as fitness guru on the TV series The Biggest Loser, endorses the system.
Of course, this does not mean that Turbulence Training is a magic cure for your weight problems – you still have to put the work into the workout. Only sweat and protein will build muscle and burn fat.

The package also comes with a few additional extras which are surprise freebies. Unlike some other offers, these extras are really rather good too. Certainly one of the best fitness and weight loss systems available.
I made a massive mistake when I bought this product. I want to warn people not to make the same mistake that I made.
I thought I was tough enough to jump right in and do the advanced workouts – I was desperate to lose weight quickly for my best mates wedding (me being the best man and due to stand up in front of about 250 people!). Anyway, I almost killed myself doing these crazy routines. I could not move a muscle for days afterwards!
But, I stuck with the plan (well, started from the beginning!) and slowly worked my way up to the advanced workouts again – and it works. I am getting back in shape, the beer belly is losing this fight, I am winning. My gf loves my new body.
I still have a lot of fat to lose but my shoulders and arms are bigger and my gut smaller and this shapes my body really well. I feel great – and I look great in the tux too! 3 weeks to my mate’s big day, the best man speech is almost perfected and I look amazing. So thanks! Although I still do not forgive you for that first week of hell thought! LOL!!!
Hey Patrick, thanks for sharing that. I know that a lot of people buy these ebooks (31 Day Fat Loss and Truth About Abs are actually our most popular ones) but we rarely get any feedback on them. I hope the wedding goes well – maybe you will impress some of those bridesmaids eh? Oh, you will ahve to change your name too! McFatty!
Hi, I am a 16 year old boy. Can I do this workout? I really want to lose weight, I have started in college and starting to feel more self concious about my weight. I want to lose about 40 pounds.
16 years old is a good time to start this sort of workout. You are fast becoming a man at 16, and with the exception of heavy squats which may (or may not) impact on your spine if it is not fully developed yet, you can perform all these exercises. Remember that diet is key to losing weight, and as you need to lose 40 pounds you have to change the way you eat. If anyone tells you that you can lose weight with exercise alone they are wrong!
Is this book only available in ebook form? I may want to give it as a gift.
this is only in ebook, but Craig Ballantyne has published some physical books on fitness and workouts. Check out Amazon for his books.
hey, I’m 24 years old and where I live the summer is coming up like in 2 months and most guys know that the girl dont like the flab gut and all that. So like I’m woundering if this is good for that and like does it really work because I’m tired of having to have a shirt on the beach. I’m not like fat, I’m tall got big arms and stuff but I have that little belly fat that I cant get off. So if u can give me some pointers that would be great …thanks
HI David. Yes, this program will work, but only if you work hard. To be honest, every single weight loss plan you see here will help you lose your belly, but that is all they can do, help you. If you follow the workouts, train hard, and also (most importantly for stomach fat) follow the eating guidelines, then it will work. You can make good progress in 2 months. Craig Ballantyne’s system is certainly good, as is the 31 Day Fat Loss Cure (this uses the caveman diet) and the Truth About Abs, which also has excellent nutrition advice.
Hi, this is prakash. I am 22 years old. Suddenly my body gets big within 2 months, i consult with doctors, they told you have ulcer, so only it happened. But, now my ulcer has been cured. My body remains same. I cant able to wear my t-shirts like before, my stomach grows big. I dont know how to reduce. It remains same. When i exercise also. I am eating low fat foods only. Will you help me how can i reduce my stomach in my home itself. I am waiting for your reply in my mail.
Hi Prakash. OK, you need to sort out your diet. You say “I am eating low fat foods only” – this is probably the main problem. Forget about the idea that fatty foods make you fat. If you are not eating fatty food then you are probably eating too much sugary food (carbohydrate). You need to reduce sugar intake. Stop eating all breads and other refined carbs. You need to calculate how many calories you need and then consume less to lose weight. Exercise is the final part of the solution, still vital but actually not as important as getting the diet right.
hi im a 16 year old boy.i want to play first game’rugby at school but im struggling with fitness training.i feel my upper body is completely weak, i struggle to do press ups,chins & pullups.i dont have access to a gym.
Please can you help me with any tips or exercise techniques that you know of.
Thanks
Hi Ganza, this eBook will certainly provide you with an excellent fitness regime that will get you in good shape for rugby.
Work on squats, lunges and push ups. For push ups you just need to keep trying, do them everyday, if you are struggling just do a few at a time, rest for 30 seconds, then do some more. Try assisted pull ups (use a bench or chair to assist yourself) and work on reps.
