Truth about Metabolic Resistance Training | – Comments on

September 5, 2013

You’ll probably call me a nerd for this, but I’m like a little kid at the candy store every month when I get my TT Trainer newsletter info from my fitness coach, Craig Ballantyne.Here’s a classic pic of Craig B and I at the very first TT Summit:I’ll set out a block of time and read every single word of his newsletter.I don’t know how Craig Ballantyne does it, but he always seems to find the most cutting-edge fat burning studies before me…… and I’m subscribed to dozens of fitness newsletters.And he may have found the best study yet…More importantly, this study is going to help you increase post-exercise calorie afterburn by 450%.It’s great to see the science catching up to support the type of workouts that he has been publishing online and in Men’s Health magazine for over a decade.Consider this the New Rule of Metabolic Resistance Training.Because quite frankly, MOST “MRT” workouts are not true metabolic resistance training. In fact, I’ve seen loopholes in many programs published on the web and magazines. I’ll get to that soon. But first, check out this study…Italian researchers compared what they called “High Intensity Interval Resistance Training” (HIRT) against traditional resistance training. (Reference: J Transl Med

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
