The 3 Best Bodyweight Exercises 

By: Craig Ballantyne, CTT

Here are 3 kick-butt bodyweight exercises you can do anytime, anywhere to burn fat, stay energized, and avoid overeating.

Bodyweight exercises help you burn fat shockingly fast, without any fancy equipment.

1) Any Single-Leg Exercise
The pistol (single-leg squat to the floor) is the most advanced
1-leg exercise. But you can also do assisted single-leg squats with a band, or onto a bench, or even with a Stability Ball between your back and the wall.

If you aren’t ready for single-leg squats, you can use Bulgarian
Split Squats, Reverse Lunges, regular split squats, or lying 1-leg
hip bridges if you are a beginner.

2) Decline Push-ups
These are harder than normal pushups, thanks to your elevated feet. And in this position, you can still use a close-grip to fatigue
your triceps, a “piked-hip position” to build your shoulders, or
even the Spiderman leg motion to work on your abs.

3) Bodyweight Inverted Rows
I choose these over chinups and pullups because bodyweight rows let your chest rest, while your back is strengthened. It’s the perfect compliment to a pushup.

Do 8-12 repetitions per exercise. Don’t rest between exercises. Go through the circuit up to 3 times, resting 1 minute after each
circuit.

For a once-per-month challenge, do each exercise to failure in your final round through the circuit.

Get in shape fast with Turbulence Training,

As a Certified Personal Trainer, Registered Nutrition Consultant I have been helping myself and my clients for over 17 years with Symmetry products.  Today it is exciting to see this testimony for the business!  Private studio owner Deborah shares her story here on the missing piece of her business – Nutrition!  That is what completes her business.  Fitness, exercise and nutrition.  Complete!  Check it out here!

TRANSFORM Your Life Today!

Simply Fit Success Story!

Owning a private fitness studio for eight years, I am very focused on health and keeping your body in excellent physical shape. However, over the years, I found that I was missing a key component to my fitness business: nutrition. Then I went to a Business Conference in Atlanta and everything changed.

At the conference, I was introduced to many amazing business partners, including Bernard Strozier and the renowned nutritionist, Dr. Joyce Scott. After talking with them for a time and discussing my business and personal goals, we decided to host a community Health and Wellness seminar, featuring Dr. Scott. His amazing presence and insight helped introduce the complete wellness program to my entire community and me to an entire new lifestyle in Symmetry!

What makes Symmetry so wonderful for me is that I now have a guaranteed method to help my clients achieve their weight management goals and receive the daily nutritional support they need. The success of my clients through Symmetry’s products is turbo-charging my workout programs, which in turn is turbo-charging my business reputation. This has opened my eyes to what is truly possible, and now, my goals are growing as quickly as my business. I am focused earning more than $100,000 per month in retirement income and traveling throughout the country sharing the importance of living a health lifestyle through Symmetry supplements.

Now, I receive requests all the time to conduct fitness presentations. Utilizing Symmetry’s Simply Fit Kit, I am able to introduce a fantastic, all-inclusive fitness system to meet the needs of any training level. Plus, my team and I are building our businesses, by hosting Simply Fit Parties, where we share the Symmetry opportunity and sample these life-changing products. We’re even able to help jump start for business partners who can’t afford to purchase a kit by having a party to get them “right now money!”

There really is no deterrent to being a success with Symmetry. It’s like I tell my fitness clients: set goals. When you have short-, mid-, and long-term goals, then it’s just a matter of developing a path and following it to success. Know your products, share testimonials, show before & after pictures, use the parties to show the value of the kit and how it saves and makes you money, and you will be on the fast-track to success. I’ve found that the parties, presentations and the powerful client testimonials on my social media channels continue to expand the reach of my Symmetry business. Thanks to this great “by-word-of-mouth” marketing, by the time someone accepts the invitation to look at Symmetry, they’re practically already sold.

If there is one word that encompasses what Symmetry means to me, it is “blessing.” And that is what Symmetry truly is, a blessing to everyone who comes into contact with it’s powerful products and life-changing opportunity. It is the best opportunity for getting healthy, maintaining wellness, and gaining financial independence – like I said: a true “blessing!”

I’m Deborah McCrary, Personal Trainer/Fitness Coach, and this is my Symmetry story.

Awesome story, right?  If you are a Personal trainer/Fitness Coach let me know how I can help you achieve your nutrition business goals.  Complete the circle for your clients and make 2013 your best year ever!

Introducing Paleo Summit!  Cyber Monday Special

I have struggled with my weight for years.  Actually I have struggled with my health for years and this has resulted in struggling with my weight.  You have heard that Healthy is the NEW Skinny, right?

Very happy to say I am down 20 lbs since Feb. 2012!  Now for some that may not sound very impressive.  Yet for me it is a huge accomplishment. Why!  Because it was so simple and easy. Not once in 10 months I have felt deprived, hungry or that I have missed out on anything.  You can feel the same if you want!

How did this happen.  For me everything seems to happen in steps.  I have used Symmetry’s products for years.  They have helped me get to a certain level of health and vitality without any medication or prescription drugs.  These products and opportunity are something I am forever grateful for.

I was doing some work around the house and put on a seminar from the Paleo Summit.   As I write this post I can not remember the one I was listening to however the topic was Gluten Sensitivity.  My partner had suggested a number of years ago that I might be gluten sensitive however I didn’t pay much attention at that time.

When the doctor was describing someone who is gluetn sensitve he said that when they go up stairs they get very winded!  I was dumbfounded.  You see I am in pretty good shape, exercise regularily with no problem.  Yet when I walk up the stairs in our house I can hardly breathe!

At that moment the decision was made.  No more gluten, wheat, grains.  I was going to experiment and see how I felt.  My most important goal was to see if I could feel better. Would the pain I had been living with for years go away?  Would I sleep better?  Would I have more energy?  What other benefits would I get with this experiment?

I had no idea what I was in for.  Now I do continue to take Symmetry products daily.  All the products are gluten free.  I really like the Simply Fit.  It is a system that I highly recommend.  But I digress.

It is now 10 months that I have been gluten free, grain free and wheat free!  I feel great.  The body pain that had been such a challenge is no longer a problem.  My energy has increased.  Sleeping like a baby again.  And my weight is down 20lbs!  I also am able to build some muscle which is fantastic.

This is just one example of the value in the Paleo Summit and you can get it here today and very special Cyber Monday pricing!

Resveratrol for Prostate Cancer

Just finished reading some new info that is important for those with Prostate Caner.  What got me thinking of doing this post is that it’s Movember!  Do you have any idea what that is?  According to Vital.com this is what Movembe is all about – “You may think it’s November, but to some it’s Movember, a mustache-growing month devoted to raising money and awareness for testicular and prostate cancer.”

So here is what I found that may be of interest:

(NaturalNews) Resveratrol, a natural compound found in red wine, grape skins, blueberries, pomegranates and several other plants, has been found to benefit health in a myriad of ways. For example, as Natural News previously reported, scientists have found evidence showing it prevents heart disease, helps keep weight under control, normalizes cholesterol levels and may prevent diabetes and even help treat neurodegenerative diseases such as dementia. Now, a University of Missouri (MU) scientist has uncovered ways resveratrol might be used to create a cure for even the most aggressive prostate cancers.

Genesis with X’Tranol 24 has Resveratrol in it.  The resveratrol (a potent antioxidant) equivalent of up to ten bottles of red wine, without the alcohol,and the stable food form of ellagic acid.  And it tastes really great!

If you are looking for some help in your health Genesis with X’Tranol 24 is a great way to begin.  Let  me know how I can help.

Cut Out the Fluff Exercises And Get More Results, Faster

By: Craig Ballantyne, CTT
Certified Turbulence Trainer

You’ve probably used or at least seen a Bosu Ball in your gym before (those blue half balls with one flat side), but what you might not know is that they’re really just fluff exercises.

What do I mean by that?

Well, let me share a personal story with you…

Tony, a personal trainer and former client of mine, came to me one day asking for help. You see, Tony’s a pretty fit guy, but his personal training business had started to pick up, leaving him with less time to workout. So we reviewed his program together and I immediately noticed it contained too many fluff exercises.

Tony needed maximum results in minimum time and Bosu Ball training wasn’t going to cut it. So what I ended up doing was designing him two workouts that essentially included only the most effective exercises for gaining muscle and losing fat.

In fact, the first superset of 1-leg squats paired with dumbbell chest presses alone was more effective than an entire Bosu Ball workout. And the second workout challenged him to one of the hardest upper body workouts he had ever done. So you can just imagine how happy Tony was with his new workout program.

And this is just Tony’s story.

I realize working out is often a huge struggle for many of you, either because you don’t have the time, or you’re growing frustrated with the lack of results.

But with the two workouts I’ve designed in Turbulence Training 2K5, one total body and one upper body, combined with newer, advanced interval training programs, you’ll discover a workout program perfectly suited for today’s busy lifestyle.

So, if it’s maximum results you want in the minimum amount of time possible, then this is a program tailored just for you.

Over the years I knew I was looking for simple weight loss.  Read the books, articles, and listen to the so called Experts and everyone has a different opinion on what should be done to lose weight. Yet in my opinion they never once consider me?  What was I willing to do, what was I capable of doing.  When I began the journey to lose weight I wanted simple weight loss.  I didn’t know what to do and no matter what I tried nothing seemed to work.  As I think back now if I had had a big success with my weight loss early on in my journey it would have sparked me to go even farther sooner.
