Recently,
I was in Tampa, Florida, at a seminar. Between sessions, a physician
from Georgia stopped me in the hall and said, "Hey Craig, you were
right about those crosstrainer machines. I've had your program for a
few months now and I'm getting better results with the bodyweight
circuits."
It's always great to meet clients, and I was curious to find out how
he heard of me. Turns out, he found me through Google, landing on an
article I wrote about "how elliptical machines (crosstrainers) suck
for fat loss".
That's right, I think those machines are almost a complete waste of
time.
"I was using one of those machines for a long time and was wondering
why I wasn't getting any results," the physician continued, "I'm so
glad I found your program and now I'm using the bodyweight circuits
from the Dumbell-Bodyweight Fusion Workout", he added.
I
told him how I wasn't surprised. In fact, I've never personally known
anyone to get great results with one of those crosstrainer machines.
Now I've watched really lean people use them, but they didn't get lean
with those machines.
I know some people will be angry with what I have to say because
they like exercising on the crosstrainer, but the truth is that they
just don't work as well as harder forms of interval training.
And hey, any time you are traveling or want a break from regular
interval training workouts, you can use one of the 4 bodyweight
circuits from the TT DB-BW Fusion Fat Loss program that you get as a
bonus when you order the Turbulence Training fat burning workout
routine.
