Gain Muscle and Lose Fat with TT Members November 07 Workout A

http://www.turbulencetraining.com
This workout is going back to the basics, using dumbbells to focus on building muscle and boosting your metabolism.
To start out, you’ll do a bodyweight warm-up that will help better prepare you for the actual workout.
With that being said, the first exercise in the warm-up is the T-Squat.
From here you will immediately go into a Downward Dog Push up. To get in proper position for this exercise, place your hands and toes on the ground and pike your hips up toward the ceiling. Next, drop you hips down and stretch through the abdominals and then back up. Repeat this six times.
Next, you’ll go into the Stick-up exercise.
After that exercise go right into the Sumo Squat exercise.
Once you have finished that exercise you will go immediately into a X-Crawl exercise.
Next up in the warm-up is the 1-Leg Romanian Deadlift.
The last exercise in this warm-up is the Close-Grip Push-up. To get in position, place your hands shoulder-width apart and keep your elbows tucked into your sides.
Rest for 30 seconds, repeat the circuit one more time and then you’re ready to begin your workout.
Okay, so now that you’ve got the bodyweight warm-up out of the way, you’re ready to start the workout.
To begin, you’ll pair dumbbell Presses with dumbbell Squats, or alternatively you can do barbell chest presses and Snatch Grip Deadlifts. Just be sure to use either of the presses and either of the lower body exercises in this superset.
For the flat chest press, simply lean back on the bench and press the DBs up and out and down and in.
Immediately following all your reps for the press, hold the DBs at your sides, push your hips back, while keeping your back flat, and then squat down and drive up.
For the barbell press, place your hands just inside of the rings and tuck your elbows into your sides as you lower the bar to your chest and then pushing the bar back up. With your hands slightly narrower and tucking your elbows in, you are effectively taking a lot of the stress off of your shoulder joint, and placing more stress on your shoulder muscles and tricep muscles.
Make sure that when you do deadlift, that you are using full sized plates, otherwise it requires you to go down further and most likely lose your form. In this exercise, you will place your hands outside of the main rings on the bar. Squat down and keep your back flat and chin up, bring the bar up while keeping the bar close to your body.
With the wide hand position, it will be a little more difficult for you to hold a lot of weight, so you won’t be able to lift as much as you normally would, but it will also remove some of the risk of injury.
In the second superset of this muscle building workout you will pair dumbbell incline press with dumbbell rows.
Once you’ve completed all your reps the for the incline press, then immediately go into the rows.
In this final superset of the workout, you will pair two bodyweight exercise, push ups and inverted rows.
With the push ups, we’re adding a slight twist to make them a little more difficult. So, perform a regular push up, however, when you are in the bottom position, pause for one second and then push up and repeat.
This is a great way for beginners to improve their push up strength.
For the inverted rows, this time you will use an underhand grip.
Now, that’s the end of this muscle gaining, metabolism boosting strength portion of the workout. And by the end you should be feeling an incredible arm pump. From here, you’ll finish off your workout with interval training.

Gain Muscle and Lose Fat with TT Medicine Ball Workout

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! http://www.turbulencetraining.com
Inside the TT Medicine Ball workout you’ll discover a workout involving circuits, ab training, and power exercises. All in all, you’ll get a great workout you can do anywhere with just a medicine ball.
Now, if you’re trying to decide what size of ball to get, I recommend an 8lb ball for men and maybe a 4-6lb ball for women.
In this circuit you will complete all exercises with no rest between. If this is your first time through the workout, then just go through it once. However, if you are advanced, then you can repeat the circuit two to three times in total.
Starting out, you will do the Squat Press. In this exercise, squat down and then press up, by pushing your hips back, squatting down, and then driving up, while lifting the ball overhead.
Next is the Big Circles exercise. Start with the ball overhead, and rotate the ball down and around. Be sure to keep your abs braced throughout.
After the Big Circles, you will perform the Power Golf Squat Chop. To get into proper position, get in a nice wide stance, bring the ball up and over and then drive down to the opposite foot. Do all repetitions for one side and then switch over.
Next, you will do Decline Push ups. So, place your feet on the ball and then perform a regular push up.
Once you’ve done all the repetitions for the push ups, follow that with Diagonal Lunge Chops. For this exercise, you wan to start with the ball overhead, and then lunge forward while chopping the ball across your body. Alternate sides.
Medicine Ball Leg Curls is the next exercise and it’s a difficult one. Put your feet on the ball, bridge your hips up, and then roll the ball out and back in. If you’re not able to do that one, then alternatively, you can do hip bridges.
These next two exercises in the circuit are optional, but do them if you can. The first is Pull ups with the medicine ball between your feet. So, stand in front of a pull up bar, grab an overhand grip, squeeze the ball with your feet, and then pull your chest up to the bar.
Once you come down from the Pull ups, move right into Medicine Ball Slams. In this exercise, you will step forward and drive the ball down into the ground. Grab the ball, and then alternate feet positions and slam the ball into the ground.
It’s okay to skip both of those exercises if you’re unable to do them.
To finish off the circuit, you’ll do Power Swings. This will be like a Woodchopping movement, but with more power. Start with the ball up overhead and then swing it down and up. For this exercise, there will be more extension at the top and you’ll be getting up on the balls of your feet during the exercise. Repeat this movement.
Once you’ve made your way through the circuit, take a minute rest and then go through the circuit one to two more times.

Gain Muscle and Lose Fat with TT Buff Dudes and Hot Chicks Workout A

http://www.turbulencetraining.com
This workout will work to build a really tight butt. Your first time through the workout, just do one set, after however, you can go through each superset three times.
With that being said, the first superset in this workout will pair a leg exercise with an abdominal exercise.
First up is Walking Lunges. So, with dumbbells at your sides and feet shoulder width apart, step forward, drop straight down and drive up to the start position, alternating sides. Do all repetitions walking forward.
Once you’re finished with that exercise you’ll move onto the Stability Ball Pike. This exercise is very similar to the stability ball jackknives. However, the Pike is a little bit more advanced. And for people that have limited flexibility in their hamstrings, you won’t be able to pike up very much, but with practice your range of motion will improve.
This exercise will produce an excellent contraction in your abdominals, but the key is to keep your back as flat as possible. So, with your toes on the ball and your hands on the ground, mimic the plank position. From this point you will roll the ball up and stretch those hamstrings while contracting the abs, and then back out.
You’ll find that over time you will get better at this exercise as your hamstring flexibility will improve as will your balance. All along, however, you should get a strong contraction in your abdominals.
If you find that exercise to be too difficult, then you can do a stability ball jackknife in its place.
The next superset pairs Bulgarian Split Squats with 1-Leg Stability Ball Leg Curls. So, for the BSS, step out from the bench and place one foot behind you up on the bench with dumbbells at your sides. Next, drop straight down, and then back up. Do all reps for one side and then switch sides.
You should feel a strong stretch in the quads of the back leg, while your glutes and hamstrings will be doing all the work to raise your body back up to the start position.
Immediately after all reps are finished, move into the leg curl. This exercise is such a powerful exercise for your hamstrings, so much so that they may cramp up on you. So, you may need to take a break during the repetitions.
To start, lay with your back on a mat and one heel on the ball while the other leg is straight up in the air. Now, bridge your hips up and then curl the ball in and out. Be sure to keep your hips bridged up throughout the exercise.
The third superset in this workout is optional. So, if you are pressed for time or if you just don’t want to work on your calves, then you can just skip this superset. With that being said, you will do calf raises along with an ab exercise.
So, standing on any type of step, you will do Single Leg Calf Raises. To start, hold a dumbbell in the same hand as the calf you are working. Now, with the none-working foot off the ground, and the foot of the calf you are working in the up position, drop your heel down below the strep and then squeeze your calf to come back up. Do all reps for one side and then switch sides.
Immediately after this exercise, move right into a Plank with your elbows on the ball. This is a little more challenging than a regular plank, especially if you put your elbows out in front of the body. Be sure to hold your body in a straight line.
The last superset pairs two abdominal exercises together. The first is a kneeling Stability Ball Rollout. From an upright position and your hands outstretched on the ball in front, slowly roll out for three seconds and contract back in for two seconds.
The final exercise in this workout is the X-Body Mountain Climber. So, from a regular push-up position, drive your knee up to your opposite elbow. Go nice and slow throughout this exercise and really focus on contracting your abs throughout.
To finish off the workout do 10 minutes of interval training following a 30 seconds on 30 seconds off format. Try kettlebell swings, bodyweight squats, running in place, or jumping jacks if you are limited for equipment. Otherwise, you can use one of the cardio machines, but repeat the intervals for 10 rounds.
That’s it for the workout!

Gain Muscle and Lose Fat with TT Buff Dudes & Hot Chicks Workout B

This workout is going to be all upper body all the time. You’ll also find a couple additional supersets added in at the end, but they are purely optional.
Additionally, throughout each of the exercises, really try to focus on an extra squeeze at the top of each of the exercises in the workout. If you’re looking to take your workouts to the next level, that little extra squeeze will place a bit more tension on the muscle.
The first superset pairs Pull-ups with Dumbbell Chest Presses. Now, if you can’t do the Pull-ups then you can substitute that exercise with Dumbbell Rows, Assisted Pull-ups, or even Dumbbell Pullovers.
So, for the pull-up, you’re going to take an overhand grip, slightly wider than shoulder-width apart and pull your body up to the bar. On the way down, take 3 seconds to lower yourself. Like I said; if you’re unable to do a full pull-up, then get a boost up and just do the lowering phase unassisted.
Immediately after all reps for the pull-ups, go right into DB chest presses. With your back on the bench, press the DBs up and in, then down and out.
The next superset includes the Incline DB Rows as well as the Incline DB Presses. You should be able to use the same amount of weight for both exercises.
So to set yourself up for the Rows, put a slight incline on the seat and a 45-degree incline on the bench, support your chest against the bench, pick up the DBs and row them upwards, while keeping your elbows tucked in and squeezing your shoulder blades at the top.
Now, using the same weight, but higher repetitions, you will move right into chest press exercise. You’ll find you’re a little fatigued from the previous exercises, so using the same weight for a few extra controlled repetitions will be perfect. Just make sure that at the top you are squeezing your triceps and your chest.
If you’re pressed for time, those are two mandatory supersets. Also, if you’re female and worried about gaining too much muscle, then simply do one or two rounds of each of those supersets.
However, if you’re looking to gain muscle then you’ll want to finish off the third and fourth optional supersets.
The first exercise is a Single Arm Dumbbell Shoulder Press. In this exercise you want to place one hand on your abdominals, while the other hand has the DB at shoulder height facing outward. Next, press the DB up overhead, squeezing the deltoid and tricep at the top position and then bring it back down. Repeat all repetitions for one side and then switch sides.
Once you’re finished with that exercise go right into Dumbbell Shrugs. For this exercise, you’ll need a heavier weight and simply go straight up and straight down for 12 repetitions.
In the last superset you’ll pair Dumbbell Bicep Curls with Decline Close-Grip Push-ups.
For the bicep curls, place your palms so they are facing up at all times and a take a slight bend in the knees. Now, curl both DBs up simultaneously and then bring them back down.
After all the reps are done move right into the decline push-up exercise. Here you will put your feet up on the bench and your hands at shoulder width apart on the floor. When coming down be sure to keep your elbows tucked into your sides with your abs braced at all times. Repeat for as many repetitions as you can.
That’s it for the resistance portion of your workout, and now you’re ready for interval training. For this part of the workout you’ll do 60 seconds on, then 60 seconds off for a total of six rounds.
Examples of different exercises you could use for your interval training might include; biking, rowing, sprinting, swimming, kettlebell swings, or jumping jacks just to name a few.

Gain Muscle & Lose Fat with TT Medicine Ball Workout 2

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! http://www.turbulencetraining.com
This particular Medicine Ball workout will focus more on strength by taking a number of exercises and pairing them together in superset fashion.
To start, you’ll begin with a series of lateral lunges and a diagonal chop and combine it with a unique pressing exercise.
For the lunges, bring the medicine ball up over your left shoulder, take a lateral lunge out, and chop down with the ball to your opposite foot, making sure to get nice and low. Do all repetitions for one side and then switch to the other side.
Immediately following all your repetitions for the diagonal lunges, get into the bottom squat position, and with the ball in one hand, press it up overhead. This exercise is similar to the stick-up exercise in that your arm isn’t going to have as much mobility as you want. Perform all repetitions for one side and then arms.
Once you’ve finished all the repetitions, take one minute to rest and then repeat the superset two more times.
Next, you will perform the one-legged squat. Place the medicine ball out in front of you, bringing one foot out as well. Now, squat down on one leg and then back up. Do all repetitions for one leg and then switch legs.
Immediately following the one-legged squat, you will then move into the elevated push up exercise. So, get into a push up position, but now, place one hand on the ball, and then perform a regular push up. Once you have done all repetitions for one arm, switch the ball to the other arm and repeat.
The next superset pairs one-leg hip extension with the McGill crunch.
For the one leg hip extension, you will lie flat on the ground with one foot on the ball and your other leg straight up in the air. Next, use your foot on the ball to bridge your body up. During this exercise you will find that your hamstring and glute of the leg that’s on the ball will be doing all of the work. Perform all repetitions for one side and then switch to the other side and repeat.
After you’ve completed all repetitions for the hip extension lay flat on the ground, bending one knee while bringing the medicine ball in outstretched arms, above your head. This isn’t a big movement as you’ll raise your shoulders just so that they come up off the ground, and then back down again. Try to really focus on squeezing your abs on the way up. Perform all repetitions for one side and then switch legs and repeat. Now, if you want to make this exercise even more difficult, then simply hold the top position for up to five seconds.
The last superset is optional, depending if you have equipment and a place to throw the ball into the ground.
First, you are going to take the medicine ball and using a strong throw, throw a chest pass into the ground. Be sure to bend the knees slightly and drive down.
Next, move immediately into inverted rows. So, set the bar at hip height, place your feet on the medicine ball and take an overhanded grip. Next, row your chest up to the bar and be sure to squeeze your shoulder blades.
To finish off the workout, you will perform a series of Burpees while using the medicine ball. So, do 10 burpees, rest for 30 seconds and then repeat three to six times. So to start, bring the ball overhead, then go down (place the ball on the ground), kick your legs out, do a push up, bring your legs back in (pick the ball up), and jump in the air, raising the ball overhead, repeat.
That’s it for the Medicine Ball workout.

6-pack abs part2, Nutrition
Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PF5yTLzWyBU
There is no such thing as “6-pack abs fast”. You cant buy 6-pack abs from an infomercial or get them from a bottle. Getting 6-pack abs is simple but takes alot of work – eat less and exercise more. This video goes into depth on nutrition for muscle gain and weight loss. I show you 8 very healthy meals that you can make in 3 minutes or less.
Anyone can be healthier, have more energy, sleep better, and feel better about themselves through bodybuilding. Bodybuilding doesn’t have to be expensive or take a lot of time, gyms are great but home workouts can save you time and money. A cheap dumbbell set from a garage sale or walmart is all it takes to get started with your home workouts.
