Cheat Your Way Thin

I've seen a couple reviews of 'Cheat Your Way Thin' and have decided that I am not going to buy the program, at least for now. Let me state that the reviews have not tried the system yet, so I'm not saying it doesn't work, the system is just confusing. Being hectic with work and having a kid on the way is not ideal for me to take on a detailed and confusing diet.

Yes I want to get lean, lose my gut fat as soon as possible and finally achieve my 6 pack abs, but I also need a system that is easy to understand and follow.

I belong to the Turbulence Training Member forums and here is one review from another member:

"I'm so glad I'm not the only one here who bought the book!!!
Due to the time difference, I think I must be one of the first ones to buy the book...it was around 8.30AM locally when I received an e-mail that the book went live. Obviously with all the hype that he had created about eating junk food I was excited, I even signed up for the 50% discount. Needless to say I plunked down $47, read the book for 1 hour, ended up disappointed in myself for believing such hypes & then finally I sent an email requesting for a REFUND!I mean, why make dieting so difficult on yourself???

I even mentioned in my e-mail when requesting for the refund that his diet would be too difficult for me to follow. I also told him that I was doing Turbulence Training and the diet in this program was a lot easier to follow.

At least he confirmed the refund, it just hasn't shown up in my PayPal as yet. But yeah, this book is kind of pointless, it's just too difficult to follow and he is just saying stuff what I feel everyone here knows."

Again, I'm not saying the diet doesn't work, I'm just saying that it seems very complex and I don't see a lot of people sticking with a complex diet plan for long. If you can't make it a part of your lifestyle, than diets do exactly what they sound like, DIE!!

It was a Split Decision

And the journey to fat loss and 6 pack abs continues.

Yesterday I did a quick off-day workout with my new toy, the heavy bag. I did 5, 2 minute rounds with 1-2 minutes rest in between. I didn't have a set program, but worked on constantly punching, keeping my feet moving and always keeping my guard up.

Needless to say, the judges had the scorecard split and it was a split decision after 5 rounds. I've set up a rematch for Wed.

I plan to research any workout programs for the heavy bag. If I find something I will let you know about it. If you know of something, please let me know.

Today I started the new May Turbulence Training workout. Its called TT for Reformed Meatheads Fat Loss Program (long title, I know). Workout A was great. I was able to use heavy weights, it was only 3 super-sets with 1 body weight interval and I was in and out of the crowded gym in 30 minutes!

Has anyone gotten any emails on the Cheat Your Way Thin ebook by Joel Marion?? I got 6, lol! Since I haven't read it (I don't plan to buy it unless someone I know tries it) I'm not going to say its good or bad. From what I've read its about when you take in your carbs and timing your cheat meals, it just sounds too complex for me. Don't get me wrong, if it will help me get lean and get my 6 pack, I will try it, but until someone give me a great review I'm going to hold off on it. Please leave some comments if you have bought it.
