How to Lose 5 Pounds of Fat in 10 Workout Days

Lose Fat in Workouts

If you get a chance, check out the November issue of Men's Fitness magazine. On page 32, you'll find a dramatic transformation of a set of triplets...and they used the TT for Fat Loss workout program.

In helping these guys, I also gave them some additional advanced tips...after all, this was a big-time transformation story for a major magazine...you know, the one where the client takes it right down to the full-on 6-pack abs.

I think the brother named Curt made the biggest changes, what about you? Who do you think made the best transformation?

Here's some of the tips we used in our plan to help the 3 brothers lose that last 5 pounds of fat in the last 10 days of the transformation.

Here are the guidelines we've come up with.

NOTE: The brothers were only going to follow these guidelines for 10-14 days. So if you choose to use this plan, don't follow it for more than 2 weeks. That's the maximum time for this advanced plan. After that, ease up on the restrictions a bit - and enjoy your advanced fat loss physique you've attained.

Advanced Nutrition Tips

1) Start your day immediately with 2 cups of water, 3 fish oil caps, and 20g of lean protein, as part of your normal breakfast.

2) Eat 1 cup of broccoli at lunch and dinner (in addition to what you normally had planned).

3) Eat only protein, almonds, and raw vegetables between meals.

4) Don't eat a lot (greater than 40g) of carbohydrates at any meal.

5) Don't eat carbohydrates after 7pm.

6) Don't go to bed full. Eat only a small protein snack in the evening to keep hunger at bay and to provide the body with protein before sleep.

7) Drink 6 cups of green tea per day (3 in AM, 3 after lunch)

Advanced Exercise Tips

1) Add 10 seconds to each interval

2) Add in some bodyweight circuits (10-20 minutes per day) done in the morning or evening (if you do your regular workout in the AM, do your bodyweight circuits after dinner; otherwise, do the bw circuits first thing in the AM, and then do your regular workout at lunch or later in the afternoon or evening)

3) Add one set to the first superset you do in each workout. Use these strict tips for no more than 2 weeks before returning to normal exercise guidelines and carbohydrate intake.

PS - For maximum fat loss...

If you have dumbbells, a bench, and a ball at home, go here.

"At the end of week one, I lost 3.5 pounds and I was feeling great. Yesterday was the end of week two and I lost 3 more pounds! Six and a half pounds in two weeks and I feel outstanding. Not the least bit tired or weak. I've never been so enthusiastic about each workout. I didn't bother to take a 'before' photo, but I may still do that. I would have touched base with you sooner, but with work, school, training, etc., I'm always pressed for time. And of course, that's what makes Turbulence Training such a convenient program."

No weights? No problem. Go here.

"As a professional firefighter, personal fitness is very important to me. I found the Turbulence Training program to be an excellent way to keep my workouts fresh and high paced while achieving my desired results. I would recommend this program to anyone who is serious about losing weight and reaching their fitness goals."
