The Turbo Fire Workouts

By FitnessDude · Comments (0)
Tuesday, June 22nd, 2010

This is going to be an in depth article about the workouts for the Turbo Fire Workout. As you might know, the TurboFire workout comes with 10 workouts, but these workouts are set up differently than other workouts. So let me tell you about how these Turbo Fire workouts work. Turbo Fire is split into a couple different series of workouts. You’ve got your “Fire” series and your “HIIT” series, there are also a couple sculpting/toning workouts and a stretch workout.

The number in each title designates the class length.

The “Fire” series:
Fire 30 Class/Stretch 10 Class
– This workout consists of punching and kicking, but also involves some plyometric training. There is a great stretching session too.
Fire 55 EZ Class/Stretch 10 Class – This is the longest Fire class that you will be doing. This workout will bring you to a total sweat, helping you melt off that fat. There is also a stretching class following this workout to help your muscles and help you cool down.
Fire 45 Class/Stretch 10 Class – Along with the stretching workout at the end, you will be punching kicking and even dancing in this workout.
Fire 45 EZ Class/Stretch 10 Class – This will not be the same as the other fire drills, but you will still sweat like crazy in this workout.

The “HIIT” Series – HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training)
HIIT 15 Class/Stretch 10 Class
HIIT 20 Class/Stretch 10 Class
HIIT 25 Class/Stretch 10 Class

With all the “HIIT” classes you will be doing High interval training. Many of the drills that you will be doing are the Fire drills, but at a much more intense pace. Even though these classes are shorter, you will probably be more challenged during these workouts than any others.

Other Turbo Fire workouts:
Core 20 Class/Stretch 40 Class/Stretch 10 Class – Workout the Core with Chalene’s incredible ab routine
Sculpt 30 Class/Tone 30 Class – This is Turbo Fire’s Resistance course, you will be using the sculpting band for this workout.
Stretch 40 Class/Stretch 10 Class – Stretching is key! Make sure to do all your stretching classes including this one.

There is no reason why you should not see major results with the Turbo Fire Workout. Make sure that you are following the nutrition guide to maximize your results, but most of all…Have Fun!

There will also be an article coming soon about the Turbo Fire workout deluxe.

I have already heard of a lot of confusion, so I am going to help clear some things up about the different packages you can get with TurboFire.  I know there is a lot of people excited about this workout, but you need to be educated on which package is for you.

Turbo Fire Workout

I wanted to take a moment to talk about a new In-home workout routine that is going to come out in the spring; it is Chalean Johnson’s Turbo Fire Workout. I will be doing a review of the Turbo Fire workout, so you definitely want to read it. Chalene Johnson is a pretty popular personal trainer, who has found huge success in the workout DVD world. She has come out with Turbo Jam Maximum results, Turbo Jam Elite, and Chalene Extreme. Her newest workout, Turbo Fire is supposed to be one of her best workout DVD releases yet.

Here is why I like these workout videos…they allow you to workout at your home. It helps you get rid of the unnecessary membership and monthly payment fees at the gym. I am a firm believer that people do not need a gym to stay in shape, or get in shape. With the right motivation you do not have to spend all that money.

Avenue Six Studios 2010 TurboFire jpeg Best 14b29392dde94dweb4b294000938cc1 Turbo Fire WorkoutSo here is a little info on the Turbo Fire Workout:

Turbo Fire is a high intense workout that involves plyometrics (which I am a big fan of) and cardio bursts called “HIITS”, which means High Intensity Interval Training (which I am also a big fan of). The Turbo Fire is more like Turbo jam, but with more plyometric training and more interval training. Turbo Fire will focus on lengthier intensity bursts and shorter breaks. The Turbo Fire workout is said to be very difficult and very extreme, it is considered a anaerobic workout that will focus on burning your fat and toning your body.

What comes with the Turbo Fire Workout?

The details are still shady but…Supposedly, there is 17 workouts if you get the deluxe version. It will come with a Turbo Fire Nutrition Guide, a Turbo Fire Fitness Guide, 15 Flash Cards, and Turbo Fire Weighted Gloves.

Although the workout is not out yet, you can get information of its release by clicking here…Turbo Fire.

I will also be coming out with more information, as it gets closer to its release date.

Reasons To Do Interval Training

By FitnessDude · Comments (0)
Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

I know I mention this quite a bit in my posts, but I am a firm believer that Interval Training is the way to go!  Do not get me wrong I still love continuous and long distance training, but nothing gets the body pumping like interval training does.  Interval training increases your metabolic rate more than continuous training does.  Lets take a look into the two styles of working out.

Now, athletes use both continuous workouts and interval workouts in their training and so should you, but most the time for the average Joe, interval training gets put off to the side.  Which is unfortunate because interval training will help you get fit faster.  Both workouts will help increase your aerobic capacity, meaning… the ability to transport and use oxygen.  Continuous training usually involves long distance running for a certain distance or time without taking breaks, while interval training involves high intensity bursts with short times of rest.

interval training sprinter 7737961 300x252 Reasons To Do Interval TrainingStudies have been done!  Check this out! Australian scientists have done a comparison study on both interval and over-distance-workouts.  Both workouts were done with the same average metabolic load.  They found that interval training produced the highest levels of peak oxygen consumption, they also came to the conclusion that interval training was a more powerful stimulus for increasing  aerobic fitness.  Canadian studies found that interval training exercises built high levels of fitness quickly. (Journal of Science and Medicine in Sports 11: 287-290, 2008; Journal of Applied Physiology 98: 1985-1990, 2005)

So the reason I am so crazy about interval training is because it works!  There is one drawback…Interval training can also be viewed as more unpleasant than you normal workout, but it is still worth it.

Beginning Interval Training

By FitnessDude · Comments (0)
Friday, November 20th, 2009

If you are tired of your workout routine, and if you have hit a workout plateau where you have stopped seeing results.  You need to start interval training.  Interval training will give a whole new dimension to your workout routine, it will bring excitement and will help you bust through that workout plateau.

interval training 300x180 Beginning Interval TrainingInterval training will help you get faster results, and will help you burn calories far after the workout is done with.  Interval training is the answer you have been looking for.  So how do you start your own interval training circuit?  Where do you start a interval training circuit.

You can start an interval training system on a treadmill at the gym, but it is not always the safest choice.  The best place and the safest place to begin a interval training circuit is outside on a field or a park.

Here is an example of an interval training circuit that you can use as a guide.

Warm Up for 5 minutes

After warming up, do about 4 minutes of stretching, focus on hamstrings, quads, calves, hip flexors, and make sure to breath through out the stretching and relax.

Interval Circuit:

Interval 1 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 2 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 3 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 4 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 5 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 6 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 7 – 30-second; 90-second rest period

Interval 8 – 30-second

It might become necessary to only have 60 second rest periods if 90 seconds feels to long.  After the interval circuit is over, make sure to do 2 minutes of cool down and then another 2 minutes of stretching.  The whole workout is just under 30 minutes long.  After doing this interval workout a few times a week, you will start to see some great results.
