As you've probably heard by now, there is one of those mondo promos going on over at Turbulence Training, the kind that lasts 3 days and there's a big ridiculous countdown clock running and you get approximately 120 bonus workouts and e-books with your purchase. It's a great deal if you've been thinking about buying the program, but TT veterans keep telling me that they think Craig does this too often and that it's overkill. I would tend to agree. However, every time it happens, I am more than happy to go over there and collect all of my free bonuses. :-D Those of you who already have Turbulence Training, be sure to check your e-mail for the download link or log into TT Members to grab your freebies by midnight Wednesday. I downloaded all of mine the first night for fear that the server would blow up.
Most of them I've only glanced at, but I was thrilled to get my hands on the Kettlebell Fat Loss Unleashed workout. I looked through it and I love that each workout links to a video demo. You get several minutes of instruction, safety pointers and modifications for each exercise. That's necessary with kettlebell training. If you just looked at a picture of an exercise and sort of guessed how to do it, you could seriously rupture something. A lot of the moves use 2 kettlebells, so now I have an excuse to buy another one! I got a good chuckle out of his description of the cardio "smoke sessions" which involve "high metabolic demand kettlebell drills, sprinting and intermediate distance running." OH my god! We're going to do what? LOL
I also loved the 4 Week Fat Burning Meal Plans. I'm a major meal plan dweeb. I want to see what everybody else is eating, or might eat, or should eat. It's a month of menus with recipes and nutrition stats, a 1500 calorie average for women and an 1800 calorie average for men. I know a whole lot of active women who can lose on 1800, so it's like 8 full weeks of meals. And they're fairly normal meals, not "bodybuilding" food. Like you can have some shredded wheat, milk and banana for breakfast without trying to figure out how to add 40g of protein to it.
I just made a hilarious discovery in Adobe Acrobat Reader. The meal plan e-books face the wrong way so I went into the View menu to rotate them. Near the Rotate View command, there is something called Read Out Loud. Hmmm.... never seen that before. I clicked on it and a ROBOT MAN started reading the menus to me. Too funny!
