If you have spent any time browsing my web site or have met me in person, you will be aware of my passion for kettlebell training.
Despite its unassuming appearance, I consider the humble kettlebell to be the very best tool to train with if you are looking for increased fat loss, strength, endurance and total body conditioning. I train all of my clients with kettlebells and they also form the basis of my outdoor based Boot Camp in Eastbourne.
I recently came across a training resource that is written by a guy after my own heart. Chris Lopez is a personal trainer and author of the Turbulence Training - Kettlebell Revolution e-book which is rapidly becoming one of the most popular kettlebell training resources available today.
The Turbulence Training protocol was originally developed by fitness guru and fitness magazine contributor Craig Ballantyne. Turbulence Training flies in face of the traditional approach to fat loss and is based on combinations of resistance exercise and high intensity intervals. Due to the high intensity nature of the training, workouts are kept short and can be done in as little as 15 minutes - ideal for anyone with limited time available.
Like myself, Chris Lopez has long been an advocate of the benefits of high intensity kettlebell training and is also a Turbulence Training certified instructor. He worked in collaboration with Craig to produce Turbulence Training - Kettlebell Revolution which is well written and informative and provides a no non-sense 28 week program that can have a major effect on the way your body looks.
The program promotes the use of kettlebell exercises combined with high intensity intervals to ramp up fat burning, increase muscle tone and shape while also developing conditioning and endurance. The nature of the training means that metabolic rate can remain elevated for a considerable time after the workout has ended which translates to more calories burned and increased potential for fat loss.

In short, I really liked this e-book. It is well written, easy to understand and delivers content that works. Each of the exercises are clearly explained with nice illustrative photographs and the program itself is progressive which means as you get fitter the workouts continue to challenge you.
