Advanced 15 Minute Express Workout C
3
CLICK HERE FOR A FREE WORKOUT!www.turbulencetraining.com This is workout C from the Advanced TT 15 Minute Express Workout. We’re going to do all strength training exercises in this circuit and it will only take you about 3 to 3-1 minutes to get through it. You should be able to get it done about 4 or 5 times during the 15 minutes. Start out with a dumbbell split squat starting out with 30 seconds on one leg and then switch to other side. Move immediately into a dumbbell chest press (you’ll probably use a heavier weight than you did with the split squats). Press up and in and then down and out. You’ll probably get in about 10-12 reps for this. Start out more conservatively with these and use a weight you can do about 12 times because you will definitely tire out as you go along. Next, you will do 30 seconds of chin-ups with an underhanded grip. Move immediately into 30 seconds of stability ball jackknives with your feet on the ball, elbows on a bench and your body in a straight line. Tuckyour knees into your chest and back out. Finish with 30 seconds of dumbbell Romanian deadlifts. You can probably use the same weights you used for the chest press. Push your hips back, chest is out in a proud posture and stretch your hamstrings. Make sure you have your timer that goes off every 30 seconds to move you to the next exercise. Be conservative the first time through this circuit, take it easy and work your way up and then to really hard for the last 3 or 4 circuits and then you …
ABS SUPER SET

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com Here is another lower body and abdominal superset to try out. In this superset you will pair dumbbell Romanian Deadlift with the stability ball Jackknife. If you’d like you can add this superset to another lower body superset, or you can do it just on its own and get it done in only 5 minutes. For the Romanian deadlift you will grab a set of dumbbells and place them in front of your thighs, with a slight bend in the knees. Next, slide the DBs down in front of your thighs and shins, pushing your hamstrings back as you go. You will feel a strong stretch in your hams while you go down, and then squeeze your butt to come back up. Choose a weight you can do for 8-12 reps. As soon as you’re done the deadlift set, go immediately into the stability ball jackknife exercise. For this exercise, place your elbows on a bench, your feet on a ball, and be sure to keep your back in a straight line with your abs braced. Next, bringyour knees into your chest and then back out. Repeat 15 times. Once you’ve finished the superset, rest for one minute and then repeat two more times for a total of three supersets. On its own or combined with a lower body/abs workout, this superset will help you get six-pack abs in just a few short weeks. Visit Turbulence Training to get your FREE sample fat burning workout.

HOT ZONE WORKOUT

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT www.turbulencetraining.com This is workout B from the Turbulence Training Hot Zone program. It starts out with a really powerful superset for your upper body and upper back. In the first set you’ll double up by doing an incline press to flat press for eight repetitions each. And although you’ll be tired after doing the incline, because you will follow with the flat press, you should still be able to do the same amount of weight. You’ll then go immediately to the underhand inverted row to form a triset to start out this workout. So, with the bench at a 45 degree angle, bring the dumbbells down and out and then up and in. After this, immediately flatten the bench and repeat another 8 reps for the chest press. From here, go right into the inverted row. Place the bar at hip height and take an underhand grip on the bar. Next, row your chest up to the bar, making sure to squeeze your shoulder blades together at the top position. After you’ve completed all sets for the first group of exercises you’ll then challenge your legs and abdominals with dumbbell Step-ups and stability Ball Rollouts. For the step-ups, place the dumbbells at your sides and put one foot up on the bench. Next, use your hamstrings and glutes of the lead leg to pull yourself up and then slowly lower yourself back down. It’s important to keep that lead leg up on the bench the entire time. Doall reps for one side and then switch sides. Go right into the rollout exercise and start by …
