Hello all,

I’ve got some exciting news!

One of the most respected trainers in the world has agreed to do an interview with me.   Craig Ballantyne, the creator of Turbulence Training is going to take time out of his busy schedule and answer a few questions.

But even better I’ve got something special for you, but more on that in a moment.

For those who don’t know Craig Ballantyne, he is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and his articles have been featured in fitness magazines such as Men’s Health, Oxygen, and Muscle and Fitness Hers.

Being the first day of a brand new year I know that you want to start 2009 the best way possible and what better way to achieve your fitness and weight loss goals then to get the straight answer from someone like Craig.

Here’s what I got for you.   Give me any question you have on fitness, strength training, weight loss, or Turbulence Training and I’ll ask Craig in our interview.    I’m expecting a lot of questions so I can’t promise yours will make it but I can promise you some good info from the interview.

To submit your question simply submit a comment to this post and don’t forget to bookmark this page and subscribe to the RSS feeds so you can see the transcription of the full interview later.   Or better yet subscribe to my newsletter and I’ll e-mail you when it’s ready.

Again, Craig Ballantyne is a very busy fitness expert and I urge you to take advantage of this.  You may never get this opportunity again.

With less than 2 weeks left in 2008 people are starting to think about New Year’s Resolutions.   Starting an exercise program is the most popular new year’s resolution consistently from year to year.

I already have people asking me to help them establish an exercise program.   After talking with them I realize that most people have good intentions and a strong desire to get in shape but not a lot of time.

I can totally relate being a husband and a father of three high energy boys (my oldest is six years old), plus as much as I love to exercise I still have other interests and commitments.

With that in mind I wanted to share a collection of 10 minute workouts that you can do from home.   Just fill out the form below and I’ll send it to you through e-mail.

Today is the day to get started!

Why wait till January 1st to change your habits?

We’ve got a perfect, Friday, December 5th to get a full month’s head-start on your fat burning goals.

If you are a beginner and don’t know where to start, simply make one small baby-step change to your nutrition. Add one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetables, and cut back on the sugar, bread, and junk food in your diet.

Then try to get a little bit more exercise today than yesterday. If that means 5 minutes, then that is good! That’s fine. It is better than what you did yesterday.

If you are more advanced but have started to slack off because of  the holidays, turn that mindset around and use the holidays as a  reason to “tighten things up”.

Plan out your holiday treat meals in advance, and focus on sticking to your fat burning meal plan at all other times.

Do your job and earn your rewards. You’ll feel much more satisfied this way than throwing all caution to the wind for the next 4 weeks.

So everyone, everywhere, let’s all proclaim December 5th to be the REAL New Year’s Day, and make all of our healthy habit changes NOW, not later.

Let’s get pumped up to lose weight over the holidays. Let’s do the impossible and show the world that not everyone has to gain five or ten pounds every December.

Get a head start on your 2009 fat burning plans today.

Start creating one new healthy habit every day in December.

There is NO reason to wait, click here to get a head start on your New Year’s Resolutions!

Earlier I posted a review of Turbulence Training on this blog.   I started Craig Ballantyne’s program about 2 weeks ago and couldn’t be more impressed.   I continue to read more success stories of people who decided to commit themselves to the program.   It’s pretty exciting!   I love to hear about people reaching their goals.

Craig Ballantyne has recently set up a page highlighting some of these success stories.   You can read their stories in their own words and track their progress.   You can also vote on the most compelling story.   If you have been thinking about trying Turbulence Training but have been on the fence this will be worth your time.

Read their stories and cast your vote by clicking here.    You might want to hop on over there now because voting will end soon.

I’ve already cast my vote but I’m not telling anyone.   I don’t want to sway votes in any way.

Until next time my friends,

Turbulence Training promises that your body can burn fat without tedious hours of cardio. I have always loved to lift weights but cardio always seemed like such a chore.

The creator of Turbulence Training is Craig Ballantyne, a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist who has articles featured in popular magazines such as Men’s Health, Oxygen, and Muscle & Fitness Hers. His idea is to work your body at a more intense rate in a shorter amount of time for maximum results. As someone who doesn’t really have a lot of time to devote to exercising but wants to achieve optimum fitness levels this immediately got my attention. As I write this the program is backed by an 8 week money back guarantee so i went ahead and purchased it.

Craig Ballantyme has created a program that adapts to both men and women of all skill levels. Turbulence Training also outlines how to change your workout as you progress for long term gains. Turbulence Training also offers tips on eating healthy and goal setting, which Craig stresses as a must to achieve any goal.

After reading the program I committed myself to it the best I could with an injured wrist, and I lost 4 pounds the first week. I couldn’t imagine what I could have done if I didn’t have that holding me back. I think Turbulence Training is the perfect solution for the time restricted person. It takes all of the excuses out. Craig Ballantyne has created a top notch program. I highly recommend it.

Next week I have a friend who is going to continue the program with me. I will update my progress as I continue on the program
