6) Workouts Lasting Longer Than 60 Minutes
Let’s see, take a 30-minute weight training machine circuit, add 60-minutes of cardio, include 15 minutes for warm-up, stretching, and cool-down, and put that all together and you have almost 2 hours “robbed” from you each day for your “fat loss” workout.
Now ignoring that these methods don’t even work that well, who has 2 hours to spend in the gym each day? No one, unless you are a professional athlete, a movie star, or a hotel heiress. You live in the real world, where you need real results in as little time as possible. And that’s why I put together all of the right research and years of experience in the gym to create the most efficient and effective fat loss program possible.
With Turbulence Training, you will be able to lose fat and gain muscle in only three workouts per week, lasting less than 45 minutes each session. That still gives you time for a shower, a protein shake, and to walk back to the office. Or if you workout at home, you can do after the kids go to bed or before they get up in the morning without sacrificing hours of sleep.

Top 6 Myths of Burning Fat and Working Out
5) Endless Abs
No matter how much you want to believe it, doing thousands of crunches is not going to take off any inches from your waist or fat from your abs.
There are times when I’ve gone to the gym and completed an entire workout in the same amount of time that others spend on only abdominal exercises. It’s ridiculous. None of these people are any further ahead than they would be if they used total body movements and made every exercise an abdominal exercise with the Turbulence Training lifting technique.
The 3 keys to abs are:
1) Fat loss through fat loss nutrition
2) Fat loss through interval training
3) Ab strength through efficient and effective exercises
And while endless abs are ineffective, I’ve included the most efficient abdominal-building, back-strengthening workouts in the Turbulence Training manual (see the torso training area in the workout section of the manual) so that you’ll get razor sharp abs with as little effort as possible.
My Question to You: Is finding time to workout a challenge for you? Or, is finding the motivation to workout the challenge?

Top 6 Myths of Burning Fat and Working Out
4) Isolation Exercises
Cable curls, triceps kickbacks, leg extensions, concentration curls, and wrist curls. These are all exercises that belong in the routines of bloated, steroid-using bodybuilders. Leave these time wasters for them, because they don’t belong in a time-efficient, fat-burning workout. If you want to build a cover model body in less than 3 hours per week, you don’t have time for any inefficient exercises.
Instead, you need to stick with full-body exercises that allow you to train several muscle groups at once. That’s the only way that you’ll get out of the gym in less than 45 minutes, and still be able to improve your body. In the Turbulence Training manual, you’ll get 16-weeks worth of Advanced Fat Blasting Workouts (starting on page 38) that show you exactly how to lose fat and build muscle without the need for fancy isolation exercises done on expensive machines.

Top 6 Myths of Burning Fat and Working Out
3) High-Rep, Low-Weight "Toning" Workouts & Other Politically Correct Training Programs (a.k.a “Water Bottle Workouts”)
The old “high reps gets you cut” myth is probably one of the most common misconception about fat loss in the industry. Spot reducing doesn’t work. It won’t work for your abs, and it won’t work for your arms or chest.
There are two very important reasons to include strength training in a fat loss program, but it’s not because high reps get you cut. Instead, lifting moderately heavy weights for a lower number of repetitions will help you gain muscle at the same time as you lose body fat, and it will also help you burn a lot more calories during training and after.
This goes for both men AND women. A study of women showed that when they used heavier weights and lower reps they burned more calories in the hours after training. And that’s the key. You have to put “Turbulence” on your body so that your muscles will increase their metabolism. By doing that, you burn fat and calories all day long, even while you sleep!
And as if the high-reps belief wasn’t enough, I can't believe it when I read a fitness article misleading women that they can get “toned triceps” by lifting soup cans or water bottles. This will never happen! It doesn’t matter how many photos the magazines show you of your favorite exercise instructor doing triceps kickbacks with water bottles in her hand, you will not get her body by doing that type of program. What a load of baloney. Pure politically-correct crapola. On the other hand, the bodyweight exercises in the Turbulence Training workouts will help you get sleek, sexy, defined arms.
So let's leave it at this: For men and women looking to get lean and lose fat, you should go for efficient exercises - obviously the more muscles used per exercise the better. By doing pushups for example, you can train your triceps, chest, shoulders and abs all at once - literally cutting your workout in half (or more). And that’s what Turbulence Training is all about – more results in less time.

Top 6 Myths of Burning Fat and Working Out
2) Spinning
I know I’m going to step on some toes with this one, but let me tell you that no matter how great you think your spinning workout is, I guarantee you it is inefficient. Spinning classes are great for entertainment, and overall not bad for results, but they are too long! They take up a full hour of your time when you could get your strength training and interval training done in the same amount of time.
What good is a spinning class if you really need to build the muscles of your upper body? Why it’s no good at all, of course. Doing a spinning class today just means that you’ll have to come to the gym twice as much each week in order to get the same results as you would with Turbulence Training.
But with Turbulence Training, I’ve taken what does work in a spinning class and shortened it, improved it, and created the Turbulence Training Interval Cardio workouts that are guaranteed to help you blast through stubborn fat while still allowing you enough time to get the benefits of strength training in the same workout.
My Question: Have you ever noticed those people at the gym who do spinning classes either (a) always look the same (i.e. no weight loss) or (b) never stay with the class?

Top 6 Myths of Burning Fat and Working Out
1) Long, Slow Boring Cardio Workouts
Each day, I see the same people doing the same exercise routine as they did yesterday. They go to the same piece of cardio equipment and use the same level and go at that same slow pace as always.
And do you know what I see the next day? The same old physique on that same person. No change. Next week? No change. Same workout, same body. For months and months and months on end (if not years). I apologize if it sounds like I’m describing your progress, but it is all too common.
Heck, I’ve researched testimony from men and women describing the 7 hours of cardio they do each week, and their mounting frustration from the lack of results. So what’s the answer? Should they do more cardio? Of course not, that would be insanity!
But the politically correct trainer would say, "Just keep at it. Keep working hard. Doing more cardio in the fat burning zone will help you lose the fat."
Well I’m here to tell you in no uncertain terms, politically incorrect and all, “No it won’t. Extra cardio will not help.” Doing hours and hours of cardio each week is a great way to get nowhere in your fat loss program.
So stop worrying about exercising in a certain heart rate zone for fat loss. Forget about how many calories the machine says you’ve burned (they are wrong most of the time anyways). And get off the elliptical machine for good (I don’t believe the elliptical machines are effective for advanced fat loss). Say goodbye (and good riddance!) to long, slow, boring cardio.
My Question to You: Do you want to burn fat?? Are you finding mixed results from cardio workouts?
