What does Turbulence Training Promise?
The program promises a short, burst exercise system that will help you boost your metabolism, increase your fat loss, and burn belly fat. You can do this with only 3 short 45 minute or less workouts per week in your own home (Note: some equipment is recommended: dumbells, an exercise bench, and an exercise ball).

The cardio exercise is all based on interval training and promises to skyrocket your post-workout metabolism and help you lose more weight and burn more belly fat than you would with traditional cardio workouts.

“Check out turbulence training. That gets you in and out of the gym in 45 minutes. It’s super-effective too.”
- BodyBuilding.com Forum
“I’d suggest Turbulence Training instead. I’ve personally had great results with less time with TT than with a lot of other, more time-consuming programs. I don’t really see myself doing anything else in the future!”
- BodyBuilding.com Forum
“It’s a very good program and it’s for both fat loss and retaining lean muscle mass. Love his workout routines and have been doing them for over a year.”
- BodyBuilding.com Forum
Negative Comments
“I have been reading through it and am not sure which program to start with.”
- BodyBuilding.com Forum
(NOTE: I noticed that Craig address this criticism on his website in the FAQ’s section and has recommendations for which program to start with based on your fitness level.)
“Overall, I found the strength training was not set up well and was structured in such a way that it is not meant to really build muscle. I guess if you are looking to burn fat only, this could work.”
- BodyBuilding.com Forum
So Does it Work?
It most definitely does. User opinion online is overwhelmingly positive for Turbulence Training. It seems that many people are drawn to the 45 minute or less workouts. The fact that you can do these in your own home without needing to go to a gym is a huge bonus.
I appreciate the fact that Craig has really done his research and everything he teaches is based on science rather than opinion. The fact that the workouts are fun as well as challenging is also great for keeping you motivated and excited about your progress.
Wishing you all the best on your fitness journey,
