Fat Loss Workouts with TT Hot Zone Workout Warmup
1
CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com This is the August 2008 Hot Zone Workout. The 4 hot zones of the body are the pressing muscles and the chest, the torso area, the back of the legs and the upper back area. If you train and exercise for one of those areas, everything else will get trained and boost your metabolism. Those are the 4 hot zone areas were going to be going after in each workout (A, B & C) and even the warmup workout. This is the bodyweight warmup for the Hot Zone Workout. We’re going to start with 4 exercises and make sure we hit the chest, abdominals, the back of the legs and the upper back. Start with a Y-Squat. Put your hands up in the Y position and keep your shoulder blades back. This will work the upper back and the back of the legs. Next is elevated pushups which will work the upper chest and abdominals. Place one hand on a dumbbell or something about 4-6 inches off the floor. Doall reps on one side and then switch to the other side. 1-Leg Romanian Deadlifts are next. This is one of my favourite exercises to really get my hamstrings warmed up for squats. Stand on one leg, keeping a slight bend to it. Push the other leg straight back and feel a nice strong stretch in your hamstring and come back up. You will also use your glute when you come back up. You can use the wall for balance if you need to. Do 8-10 reps on each side. Your next warmup exercise is a Stick-Up. Keep your heels about 6-inches from the wall and press your back …
Fat Loss Workouts with TT February 2007 Workout A
6
CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com You will start this workout with a warm up of 3 exercises. The first exercise is a Prisoner Squat. With your feet shoulder width apart, keep your elbows back (your elbows always have to be back for this exercise to be effective) and hips back. Squat down and up. Beginners can do a simple bodyweight squat with your arms straight out in front of you. Do these for 10 Reps. The next warm up exercises are pushups, however, if you are a beginner, do kneeling pushups. The last warm up is a stick up against the wall (shoulder blades together and up against a wall) or inverted rows with a bar. You can also use a rear deltoid raise to warm up the upper back and increase shoulder mobility. Go through this warmup circuit 2 times with 8-15 reps depending on your fitness level. If you are a beginner, do 8 reps or even 5; whatever warms you up, but not too much. Now we’ll move right into the supersets. I havent used these exercises in any TT workouts before this, but they are all variations of exercises I do use. Superset 1 The first exercise in this superset is an Alternating 1-arm dumbbell press. You will not be able to use as much weight as you do for your 2 arm presses. Lie on the bench and press both arms straight up. Hold one arm at the top as you bring the working arm down. Do 6 reps per side. Move immediately into a Deep Step-Up . With regular step ups, you are close to the bench and drive straight up, but with these you …
Gain Muscle and Lose Fat with TT Buff Dudes and Hot Chicks Workout Warmup

CLICK HERE for a FREE Workout www.turbulencetraining.com This 3-exercise bodyweight circuit will serve as a warm-up to the main workout. So, starting out you will do the Touchdown Forward Lunge. For this, you will raise your arms straight up overhead as though signalling a touchdown. Next, lunge forward, getting a good stretch as you come down and then use your lead foot to drive back up. Alternate sides. By placing your hands overhead it will help open up your chest while also bringing your shoulder blades together. Next up in this bodyweight warm-up is the Close-Grip Pushup exercise. With hands shoulder-width apart and tuckingyour elbows into your sides perform a pushup. If you can’t do regular close-grip pushups, then you can just do them from the kneeling position. The last exercise to do is the Waiter’s Bow. You’ll find that this exercise really stretches your hamstrings and gets you ready for the Romanian Deadlift exercise. If you’re not comfortable with the RDL exercise, then this at least gives you a chance to practice the movement. So, for this exercise, bend your knees slightly, grab the skin fold of your low back and place your other arm across your chest. From here, you will bend forward as though you are bowing to the table. So, push your hips back and keep your back flat. You will find that the skin fold tries to get away from you and that will be as far as you go before squeezing your glutes to return to the start position. That’s it for all the exercises …
Fat Loss Workouts with TT Depletion Workout Warmup
8
CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com In the TT Depletion workouts you are only going to train twice a week on this program but in those two workouts you are going to give it your all because it’s only a 20 minute workout. I designed these workouts because so many people were saying they still didn’t have the time to do the regular TT workouts. Instead, they only had 20 minutes, twice a week. So, for these workouts this is going to be the format; a five exercise circuit, where you do each exercise for 30 seconds with no rest between exercises for 20 minutes. If you have a GymBoss timer then just set it for 30 seconds and let it go There is to be absolutely, positively NO rest at all for 20 minutes. Your workouts will start out with a squat or a jump, then into a pushing exercise, then into another squat, followed by an upper body pulling exercise or a total body ab exercise, and then a single leg exercise to finish it off. Again, you’ll just rotate through the exercise for 20 minutes. Before each workout, you’ll start out with a very small warm-up to get started, beginning with an Overhead Squat. Grab a broomstick and raise your arms so that your hands are back behind your head. Now, contract the muscles between your shoulder blades, push you hips back and squat down and come back up. Once you’ve done that, you’ll go down to the ground and do either regular push ups or kneeling push ups. Go through that pair, rest, then go through it again and move on …
WARMUP FOR 30 MINUTE CIRCUIT CHALLENGE
0
CLICK HERE FOR A FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com This is a great warmup for the bodyweight 30-minute challenge workout. Do each of these exercises with no rest in between, rest one minute and then repeat one more time. So, to start you’ll do a Prisoner Squat. To get in position, place your feet wider than shoulder width-apart and your hands behind your head with your elbows back. Next, squat down while pushing your hips back. Tip if you’re really tight or inflexible then don’t use as wide of a stance as that can really stretch your groin. Next up is the Offset Pushup. This is a regular pushup, however, one hand is in front of the other. So, do all reps for one side, and then switch over to the other side. From there you will go up against a wall to perform the Stick-up exercise. With your feet six inches in front of the wall and your butt, shoulder blades, elbows, wrists and head against the wall, raise your arms up overhead and then bring them back down into your sides and repeat. The more you sit at a desk or in a car with bad posture, the more difficult this exercise is going to be. Immediately from there, go into the Cross-Crawl Exercise. This is just a standing abdominal movement, but also involves coordination. So, start with your hands up overhead, and then bring your opposite arm and knee together, alternating sides. Once you’ve done all your reps, you’ll then go into Reverse Lunges. So, step back and then drop your hips straight down. Do about five …
