I am still doing the Turbulence Training program. This is my 4th week. I will probably finish up this week and then do something else for awhile.
Not that I was following the program exactly anyway. Yesterday for my workout, I did one of my own 10 minute Fitness Fury workouts. I was really strapped for time and needed an intense workout in a short period of time. I still do some of the workouts from the Turbulence Training program, but I do find myself switching up exercises to keep my interest and motivation up.
Overall, I think Craig's program is fine. You do get a lot for your investment. I still get 1-2 emails from him everyday with new videos and workouts to do. I honestly don't have time to sift through all of that information (to be honest, I haven't even looked at all the 'bonus' workouts and reports I got with the original program) so I end up deleting a lot of his emails, although I do look through some.
I think there is such a thing as information overload. If I wasn't a fitness professional, didn't know how to put together a program and was looking for some guidance, I would feel a little overwhelmed with Craig's program. According to his selling points, Turbulence Training is exactly that...a specific program you can follow to help you achieve your fitness goals. But then he throws in 4-5 other workout programs as bonuses (TT for abs, TT for women, etc), plus he sends you more workout options via email everyday. So, at what point, does he totally lose the concept of Turbulence Training being an actual program versus just a jumble of unrelated workouts?
I guess his program just isn't right for me. I can put together my own workouts and my own routines, but I was looking for something new and inspiring so I tried Turbulence Training. Unfortunately, I find the main program a little boring and repetitive. And all the extra workouts he throws at me daily, I find to be an overwhelming amount of non-related information - at least in regards to my goal of finding a good program that offers variety with structure and purpose. As a fitness professional, I did get a few new ideas for exercises from him though! : )
However, for those who don't do fitness as a career and are looking for a basic program to help with a fat loss goal, his program is fairly solid, and does provide you with the basics you need (and then some!).
If anybody else has tried his program, feel free to comment on this blog and let us all know what you think!!
Carpe Diem!

I really like the tt training, i do a different workout every time. I don't do that ABA,BAB, i just grab one and go. I do TT training 2 days a week and the fat burning furnace 1 day a week. It provides enough variety that I don't get bored. Sometimes I throw in a body weight workout, once in awhile a spinning class.
