Already, dozens of men and women have entered the Turbulence Training 12-Week, $2,000 Transformation Contest. There are young men from Holland, young women from the West Coast of Canada, a 64-year-old woman from Belfast, Maine, plenty of folks from down under in Australia and New Zealand, and dozens more from North America and the UK.

What is Turbulence Training? So many people want to know!
The Turbulence Training fat burning workout system can be adapted for any goal and any experience level. It starts with a bodyweight circuit to warm-up, rather than a slow, boring 5- minute walk on the treadmill. The bodyweight circuit prepares the entire body for exercise, whereas the treadmill walk obviously neglects the upper body.
Next, it is onto the strength training, using the Turbulence Training
principle of picking the most efficient and effective exercises.
By using non-competing supersets, we allow one muscle group to work and one muscle group to recover. This increases the total amount of work done in the workout -- also known as increasing exercise "density". Experts believe increasing exercise density helps burn more calories and helps you lose fat faster.
Finish with 20 minutes of interval training for a complete fat burning workout in only 45 minutes. Interval training has been shown in Australian research to burn off more belly fat than normal cardio. In fact, interval training is one of the Turbulence Training secret weapons.
