3 Reasons Why Intermittent Fasting Is A Good Idea!

Link Intermittent Fasting

You may not have heard of intermittent fasting, and so you may not know why it can and should be a part of your workout and fat loss plan. Intermittent fasting is the practice of abstaining from all but water for a period of usually 24 hours to help with the goals associated with fat loss and weight loss in general. The way in which it helps in this arena is by cutting out a full days caloric intake, while still being able to maintain a full workout schedule. Let's look at three main reasons I believe that intermittent fasting is a good idea for anyone serious about fat loss and muscle building!

Train With Intervals A 15 Minute Express Fat Burning Workout

This is the Turbulence Training 15 Minute Express Workout. Hopefully since my previous post A Fat Burning Circuit Training Workout you have realized what waste the old marathon workouts are.

But yet people that read these posts and my other articles still tell me about the hour long treadmill workouts they are doing. WHY? I don't get it. If you get a better more productive workout in less time wouldn't you want that? I know I would.

These are 15 minutes circuits (A, B & C). In each circuit, you will do 30 seconds of each exercise. If you are doing an exercise like dumbbell rows, you would perform 30 seconds on each side.

The first circuit will take you about 4-1/2 minutes to go through all 6 exercises. Then I want you to do that as many as you can in 15 minutes.

If you are new to this workout, just go through the circuit 1 or 2 times for the first week. After that, you can go really hard.



The first exercise is a dumbbell squat. You will need dumbbells and a bench for this first workout.

Hold the dumbells in each hand and squat for 30 seconds. You will work your upper back by holding the weights.

Next will be 30 seconds of decline pushups. Put your feet on the bench and lower down for a 2 second count and power back up.

Move immediately into dumbbell rows. You will probably use the same weights as you did for the squats. Put one knee and hand on then bench, keeping your back flat, back knee is slightly bent and row up for 30 seconds. Switch sides and do rows for another 30 seconds.

Next up are Bulgarian split squats for 30 seconds, but you'll do these at 1-1/2 reps. Lower down and only come half way up, lower back down and then drive all the way up. Switch legs and do 30 seconds on that side as well.

You won't have much time in between exercises, so move immediately into stability ball rollouts for 30 seconds. Place your hands on the ball and roll out for 3 counts and 1 count back while keeping it controlled and abs strong.

Make sure you have your kettlebell handy because we're going to do either kettlebell swings or dumbbell swings for 30 seconds.

You'll want to have a timer such as the kind I use called the Gymboss. You can set it for multiple rounds of 30 second intervals and you just listen for the beep to tell you when to switch exercises.

Then go back from the beginning and go through that circuit as many times as you can in 15 minutes.

Train With Intervals A Fat Burning Circuit Training Workout

This is Workout A from the Turbulence Training (click the link for my review and to see this workout on video) 2K10 Program. We are going to start out with 3 mini bodyweight circuits and perform them 8 times each with 1 minute of rest in-between each exercise

1) Jump Squats - Legs are hip with apart, squat down and jump up as high as possible, keeping your hands behind your head. As soon as you land, jump up again. Repeat 15 times.

2) Pushups - Place the hands on the floor slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and you feet on a bench. Lower down and to return to the start position. Keep your body in a straight line at all times. Do as many times as you can 1 time short of failure. For example, if you normally do 15 then you will only do 14 in that set.

3) Satiability Ball W,Y,T.- Lie on your chest on the ball and stick your arms out in front of you. Squeeze the muscles between your shoulder blades and tuck the elbows back into your sides in a W position. Then, stick your arms out in a Y-position with thumbs up. Squeeze the muscles between your shoulder blades and raise your arms a few inches. Slowly return to the start position. Then, stick your arms out in a T-position with thumbs up. Squeeze the muscles between your shoulder blades and raise your arms a few inches. Slowly return to the start position.

Next exercise is a superset using a barbell squat or a dumbbell split squat going nice and slow on the way down for 3 second of eccentric movement. Followed with 3 supersets add a crash set or a drop set. Decreasing your weight by 25%, for 8 more reps.

1) Barbell Squats. Set the bar up at chest level rack. Step under the bar take it off and take 2 small steps back. Your feet should be shoulder-width apart in a narrow stance. Push your butt backward and sit back into a chair count to 3 as you squat down. Return by pushing through your heels to start position.

2) Dumbbell Split Squats. Hold a light dumbbell in each hand. Step forward with one leg, taking a slightly larger than normal step. The back knee should be bent. Counting to 3 lower your body until your front thigh is parallel to the ground. Drive back up to the upright position. Perform all reps for one leg and then switch.

3) Stability Ball Ab Pike. Start in a Jack Knife position feet on the ball body is in a straight line with abs braced. Roll the ball as close to your chest as possible by contracting your abs . Pause and then return the ball to the starting position by rolling it backward. Counting 2 seconds on the way up and 2 seconds as you roll the ball back. For 8 repetitions.


For the next mini exercise circuits - You will complete 3 rounds with 1 minute of rest in-between.

1) 1-Leg Hip Extension, lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor. Lift one leg off the floor and hold it. Slowly lower your hips down until they are an inch above the ground driving through your heel. Perform all reps for one leg and then switch sides. 15 reps on each side.

2) 1-Leg Stability Ball Leg Curl. If you cant perform a 1-legged, then perform a 2-legged ball curl. Lie on your back with your feet on a Stability Ball. Bridge your hips up by contracting your glutes. Keep your abs braced and contract your hamstrings and slowly curl the ball back towards your hips with only one leg while keeping your hips bridged. Pause and slowly return the ball to the start position while keeping the hips bridged. Complete 10 reps each side.


3) Stability Ball Plank. In a plank position put your elbows on the ball. Your body should form a straight line from your shoulders to your ankles. Hold the plank position for 45 sec. According to Mens Health Magazine this is 30% harder than a regular plank for abdominal.


To finish off Workout A with kettelbell swing. If the is the first time you do this exercise, perform this only 5 times and work your way up to 10. You will perform this exercise for 40 seconds with 20 seconds for recovery for 10 repetitions


Kettel Bell Swing - Stand with your feet shoulder width apart holding the kettle bell in two hands. Squat and swing the weight between your legs. Explode up thrusting your hips forward. Swing the kettlebell to shoulder height. Brace your abs and control the descent. That is it for Workout A. Do a little stretching and come for Workout B.

5 Cardio Workouts To Burn Fat

Good Morning,

This morning I have an article for you from Craig Ballantyne of Turbulence Training.

Everything you know about cardio is about to change. You're about to discover the truth about 5 cardio workouts to burn fat and lose more belly fat in less workout time. Let's start by looking at the old, outdated way of burning fat.


Cardio Workout #1 to burn fat: Slow cardio

The first cardio workout to burn fat is "Old School Cardio". For years, we've been fooled into thinking that we need long, slow, boring cardio workouts to burn fat. However, too many men and women slave away on the cardio machines for 40, 60 and even 90 minutes per workout without burning fat. How is this possible?

To be honest, I don't know exactly why it doesn't work, but two recent research studies found that women doing 40-60 minutes of low intensity cardio, 3-5 days per week, did not lose belly fat after at least 12 weeks of cardio. Based on those results, slow cardio is not one of the best cardio workouts to burn fat.

In fact, in one of those studies, researchers tested high-intensity cardio, and found that high-intensity cardio was able to burn fat.

Cardio Workout #2 to Burn Fat: High-intensity cardio

The only problem is that high-intensity cardio requires you to work as hard as you can until you burn at least 400 calories in a workout. That will take you at least 40 minutes - so while this is one of the better cardio workouts to burn fat, it's still not the best.

A better approach is to use interval training. This is the third cardio workout to burn fat.

Cardio Workout #3 to Burn Fat: Interval training cardio

In a study from Australia that compared 2 cardio workouts to burn fat, subjects doing 3 interval training workouts per week lost a significant amount of belly fat while another group doing 40 minutes of slow cardio per week did not burn belly fat.

So interval training is a much better workout choice for fat loss. To do interval training, you do a normal warm-up, and then you alternate between hard exercise and easy exercise, then you follow with a cool down. This routine only takes twenty minutes.

Here's a sample of the interval cardio workouts to burn fat. Do a 5 minute warm-up, and then exercise for 1 minute at a pace that is 10-20% harder than your normal cardio intensity. After that 1 minute, decrease your exercise pace all the way down to cool-down level. Repeat that hard-easy cycle 5 more times. Finish with 3 minutes of cool-down.

Cardio Workout #4 to burn fat: Tabata Interval cardio

Since interval training became popular, personal trainers have been looking for other short cardio workouts to burn fat. A study from Japan used something that is known as the "Tabata Protocol", and many trainers believe this is even better than cardio and regular intervals. The fourth cardio workout to burn fat is the Tabata Interval program.

I'm not convinced it is better than regular intervals, but it is a heck of a hard way to do a fat burning workout. After a warm-up, you 20 seconds of hard work followed by 10 seconds of recovery. Repeat that 8 times. This fat burning workout takes only 4 minutes!

Cardio Workout #5 to Burn Fat: Bodyweight circuit cardio

Finally, the fifth cardio workout for fat burning is bodyweight circuit training. Like intervals and the Tabata workouts, bodyweight circuit training is not really "cardio", however, these are the three better cardio workouts to burn fat.

Whatever you want to call bodyweight cardio, here's how it works.

First, you start with a quick, easy bodyweight exercise, such as Jumping Jacks.

After that, alternate between 3 lower-body and 3 upper-body bodyweight exercises, using squats, pushups, lunges, pulling exercises like rows or chinups, split squats, and total body ab exercises like mountain climbers.

Finally, finish off the 8 exercise circuit with a tough total body exercise like jumps, burpees, or running in place. Now that's fat burning cardio!

Those are 5 cardio workouts to burn fat. Only two are "traditional", but those 2 are the longest, and least effective. The shorter fat burning cardio workouts are the best way to burn belly fat fast.

Click here for a sample interval cardio fat burning program that has helped thousands of men and women with weight loss and fat burning.

The Turbulence Training Fat Burning workouts help you burn fat without long, slow cardio sessions or fancy equipment.

Craig Ballantyne is an expert trainer for Men's Health magazine and Oxygen magazine, and his fat burning bodyweight workouts help you lose fat without any equipment at all.

A Fat Loss Interview From Turbulence Training

Good Morning,

This morning I have an interview for you from two of the best trainers around today, Craig Ballantyne of Turbulence Training and Charles Staley of Escalating Training Density. If you are looking for no BS information for fat loss and muscle building you couldn't find to better guy's than Craig and Charles.

Pay attention there is some great information in this interview.

My Fat-Loss Interview For CB Athletics

By Charles Staley, B.Sc, MSS Director, Staley Training Systems

I was recently interviewed by Craig Ballantyne for his Turbulence Training website (click here for more info on his program).

We covered the behavior-modification end of the equation quite thoroughly, and I think you’ll find some valuable nuggets below, especially if you’ve got a few pounds to lose…

---

CB: Charles, what is your general fat loss training philosophy for the average man and woman?

CS: Find and implement a sustainable system for increasing metabolism and building muscle. This involves both training and nutrition, but under the surface, the habits and behaviors that support them. I’ll take a modest but sustainable approach over an aggressive but non-sustainable approach any day of the week.

Long-term fat loss is about your everyday habits and patterns - how much you move and what you eat, specifically.

It’s worthwhile to take an honest assessment of your habits, both in the gym and in the kitchen, and then sit down and do some hard thinking. Many people are not honest with themselves about how much they eat and move - they tend to underestimate the former and overestimate the latter.

---

CB: Did you come across any research or training methods in the past year that you added to improve your programs?

CS: God I wish I had! I really don’t think there’s anything new out there in terms of methodologies, nothing significant anyway.

I think collectively, we basically know how to train and eat. But I’m always interested in finding ways to implement all the boring, tried and true methods that are well understood, but under-appreciated and implemented. Honestly, it’s hard to circumvent the law of thermodynamics (which is why it’s a “law” as opposed to a “theory” or “rule of thumb”). If you consistently expend more energy than you take in, you’re pretty much assured of losing bodyfat.

Incidentally, you’ll always find people who swear to their dying day that they burn more than they eat and still can’t lose weight. From my experience, what happens is that people will eat in a hypocaloric manner for maybe 4-5 days, and then binge for a day, and so on. The binge tends to be just enough to cancel out the previous deficit, but they don’t remember the binge - they only remember the “good” days so to speak.

---

CB: In your experience, what’s the biggest obstacle that men and women need to overcome to succeed with their training – no matter what their goals? Does it differ between men and women?

CS: Women really have it tough today, let’s start with that.

There are a lot of obstacles, but first and foremost among them is the fact that western civilization is literally designed to make you fat. It’s never been easier to eat massive amounts of calories and avoid movement than it is today.

And it’s a catch-22 because the fatter people get, the more than society adapts to support and enable fat people. Which makes it easier and more socially acceptable to be fat. More than ever before, being lean means being on the fringe of society. And THAT’S probably the most significant obstacle to losing fat.

---

CB: How do you “get inside someone’s head” to motivate clients who are either just starting out (and dreading it) or at a fat loss plateau (and thinking of abandoning it all)?

CS: I think you’ve gotta get REAL clear about not only where you’re trying to go, but more importantly WHY. A goal is only a benchmark, or an indicator, that tells you if you’re moving closer to your ideal life, your ideal self, right?

I mean, when you say “I wanna lose 20 pounds” or “I wanna bench 405” or whatever it is, there’s an underlying assumption that if you achieve that goal, your life will be better somehow.

But a lot of people never really stop to ask themselves if that assumption is accurate or not. Are you really going to be happier is you lose 20 pounds? It seems that way when you initially conceive the goal, because your motivation is high and you haven’t done any work yet. But 6 weeks of training, calorie deprivation, and no ice cream (OK, that’s just a personal problem, sorry!) and you’ve lost 20 pounds but maybe you’re not so happy.

At the “inspiration phase” as I call it, people find it easy to visualize the positive outcomes of their goals, but it’s not as instinctive to also ponder the downside - the work, deprivation, self-discipline, pain, whatever it is. This is why any diet works for the short term. But the problem is, once you pass through the inspiration phase and enter the “perspiration phase,” reality sets in and most people just fall off the wagon.

---

CB: And Charles, what training methods have you found to be just plain fun and worthwhile incorporating into a program for variety, while still getting results?

CS: First off, don’t be a perfectionist and don’t be rigid. Variety is the key word for long-term fat loss, not only for psychological reasons, but also for physiological reasons- particularly injury prevention.

I tell people to just move - ride the bike, walk the dog, do some hill sprints, play recreational sports, lift, do it all. I also always urge people to get involved in competition on some level. When you put yourself on the line, you find out what you’re really capable of- it’s a mirror on yourself in many ways.

And by no means do you need to be great or even competitive - I compete in master’s Olympic weightlifting (in the comedy division!) and believe me, the current National champions have nothing to worry about!

---

CB: And finally, tell us about the EDT system and how one might use it in the context of a fat loss program?

CS: Well, fat-loss is what EDT was designed for. It’s quick, fun (if you enjoy pain that is) and purpose-driven. Performed 3 days a week, EDT workouts form the core of a successful fat-loss program, because it’s essentially a cross between weights and aerobics - it features the best of both worlds. In fact, when people start EDT, they invariably stop whatever cardio they were previously doing. It’s that efficient.

---

Hope enjoyed the interview and some good ideas for your fat loss training! And if maybe Escalating Density Training is not the program for you but you're still interested in some excellent fat loss information and programs, I highly recommend Craig's "Turbulence Training" program.

It's very good stuff - science-based and real-world proven.

Kettlebell Training And Interval Workouts

I love training outside with kettlebells. In fact, I go almost all
winter long without using kettlebells because I just don't like
using them inside.

But this weekend it was about 50 degrees out on Saturday (about 10
degrees Celcius) and that was warm enough for me and my dog to head
outside for a kettlebell-bodyweight circuit.

And I have one each of the 35, 44, 53, and 70lb kettlebells out at
the farm that I was able to use...although to be honest I didn't
even bring out the 70 from it's hiding spot...soon, but not yet.

My first circuit was a combo of bodyweight and kettlebells and I
built the specific warm-up into the circuit:

1) Prisoner Squat
2) Kettlebell Swing
3) Decline Pushup
4) Kettlebell Snatch
5) Kettlebell Lunge
6) Grasshopper Pushup
7) Kettlebell 1-arm Swing
Rest 1 minute and repeat 2 more times.

(NOTE: I tried doing some sprints but when I'm working out with the
dog he always tries to jump on me when I'm running and it breaks out
into a 5-minute dog wrestling match...so I stuck to the kettlebells
while he barked at another dog a mile away...)

Then I moved into a kettlebells-only circuit:

1) Kettlebell Snatch
2) Kettlebell Renegade Row
3) Kettlebell 1-arm Overhead Press
4) Kettlebell Row
5) Kettlebell Swing
Rest 1 minute and repeat 2 more times.

That was all I did...a tough workout for me, but I'm no Marine...so
for all those advanced readers, you can probably do more...but I'm
just getting the "rust off" right now. I should be snatching that
70lb kettlebell for 15-20 reps by early June.

NOTE: If you are a beginner or intermediate, please start with an
easier workout from Chris Lopez's Kettlebell fat loss workouts here:

Interval Training A Fat Burning Frenzy

Having trouble losing that excess body fat? Or have you lost some of that fat weight but can't seem to lose anymore? or is it after losing that excess fat your problem is how to keep it off. There are two main reasons after losing weight that you tend to regain the weight. Nutrition and Your Exercise program.

In this article we are going to talk about your exercise program. Or what you should be doing to not only lose that excess body fat but to keep it off permanently.

Without a doubt the most efficient and effective workouts we have today for losing excess body fat is Interval training.

Instead of spending money and falling for all the infomercial hype and Oprah recomendations( there is a reason her weight goes up and down) and trying the next miracle exercise gadget or worthless pill that promise overnight results, save yourself some frustration and money and use a scientifically proven workout that get's permanent results.

If you once and for all are ready to get rid of that excess body fat and keep it off you should start using interval training. So how does interval training work? interval training means taking an exercise as an example jumping rope after a good warm-up jump as fast as you can for say 1 minute then jup at half speed for 1 minute and repeat. What you do with interval training is vary your intensity levels. This is an example of one type of interval training in which your exercise intensity levels switch back and forth from slow to fast.

You can add interval training to many exercise routines like swimming, running, biking, elliptical, to name just a few. Whatever exercise you use can be interval training as long as you rotate the intensity levels from slow to intense. To make it interval training effective you have to make sure that when you are doing the high level intensity part of the training that you are really pushing yourself to the limit.

Working at these varied intensity levels with interval training really gives your metabolism a real kick. After a good interval training workout your bodies metabolism will continue to remain elevated even when your body is at rest long after your workout is over. Now you are doing some serious fat burning and can practically watch that excess body fat melt away.

That is provided your nutrition doesn't revolve around Burger King and M & M's (the peanut one's are my favorite), when you combine interval training plus solid nutrition to your overall plan to lose that excess body fat, you are on your way to getting that six pack abs look. You know the lean muscle, trim, toned body you have dreamed about. Firm Butt, tight abs, slender thighs and more energy than you thought possible.

So if someone tries to tell you that the long marathon cardio workouts will get rid of that excess body fat tell them you have found a better way. Once you give interval training a try 3 workouts a week at 20 minutes a workout is all it takes.

Let's check this out hour long (at least) on a treadmill or jogging or in an aerobics class 5-6 times a week or 20 minutes 3 times a week doing Interval training? I could be wrong (but I'm not) seems to be a no brainer to me.

I know which one I'm chosing to get rid of that excess body fat Do You?
