Turbulence Training from Craig Ballantyne is a very effective way of getting in shape using bodyweight and resistance exercises without the need for endless amounts of cardio that can often be ineffective when not performed correctly.
Here is a great Turbulence Training workout and video based on a 6 exercise circuit that can be performed at home with little or no equipment.

Jim Rohn was considered one the world's greatest minds and philosophers and below is a great tribute video from Darren Hardy. I have been listening to Jim's teachings for some time and it is relevant to everyone who comes into contact with any of his books, audios or videos. As a personal trainer, it has been invaluable in my personal training business based in Adelaide, Australia.
Jim unfortunately passed away recently but his material and teachings will always be relevant as they are based on timeless leadership and success principles.
Here are just a few of Jim's most famous teachings and quotes:
"If you want to have more, you have to become more."
"Don't with it were easier, wish you were better."
"All change starts with you. What do you need to change?"
"It's not what you need to do, it's what you need to become."
Most of us think that success is something we pursue, that we chase, that we go after. Jim said, success is not something you pursue, what you pursue eludes you, like chasing butterfly's, success is something you attract by the person you become.
A common question that many of my Adelaide personal training clients ask is: "Should I eat late at night?".
The answer to this often misunderstood question is related to the number of calories you have consumed during the day and whether or not you will exceed your "calorie cap". For a full explanation, click on the link below to view a great post from Metabolic Jumpstart's Matt O'Neill:
Q: When is the latest time I should make my last meal?
If you have any questions on late night eating or the Metabolic Jumpstart Program, please leave me a comment.
Just made a cool post on Space Vitamins which is a super premium multivitamin, proudly Australian made and owned, and one of only 2 supplements that are recommened by Matt O'Neill and Metabolic Jumpstart for general nutrition.
I personally do not take ANYTHING other than a multivitamin and flaxseed oil and as long as you eat well, there is absolutely no need to take anything else. No diet or weight loss pills, no shakes, and no meal replacements. No personal trainers should be promoting this stuff and you really need to ask yourself why if they are. Actually, you should ask yourself why you are wasting your money!
Space Vitamins features vitamin ingredients that are extracted from natural sources and absorbed much more readily than synthetic vitamins used by many of the leading brands.
Why should I take a multivitamin?
Even the healthiest of diets can be lacking and when we exercise, the body needs more essential vitamins and minerals and Space Men's or Women's multi can help to restore depleted levels.

There are many reasons why people choose to have personal trainers and while some of these are very common, there are many clients who have their own reasons for not going it alone.
The more common ones are:
