With so many fitness programs available on the internet how is it possible to know which ones are any good, if they are totally legitimate and most importantly, which will be the best for you?
You could spend hours and hours, days and days even, trawling through websites and adverts just looking for a fitness program, only to find that you chose the wrong one or spent a whole load of money on a ‘secret’ that doesn’t even work.
The reason I know this is because I have been there. I have spent so much time being tempted by adverts, changing my mind time and time again and then buying products that were too easy for me, too food-focussed or just that didn’t give me the results I was looking for!
Because I think I may be able to help you to find what you are looking for, I have decided to list the best fitness programs online today. These are all products that are legitimate, easy to follow and give great results if you stick to them!
I have given each a star rating (max 4) based on the following criteria – price, ease of use (including equipment required) customer care and results.
I have also given bold headings to show what each program will target, so you don’t have to read about programs that are wrong for you.
Fat Loss, Weight Maintenance and Lifestyle
Burn the Fat, Feed the Muscle (BFFM) – Tom Venuto
This is one of my favourite programs on the web because, for one, it really gives great results, and also it has a massive community and forum where you can chat to others in the same boat, share progress pictures, give and receive encouragement and maybe join in the annual transformation challenge!
Tom Venuto is a very well known and highly respected trainer who has had an online presence for many years now. He is super knowledgeable about fat loss but also about gaining muscle, being a certified strength and conditioning specialist and a bodybuilder homself.
He looks great and he definitely walks the walk! His products sell well and still have great reviews, even those which he launched years ago.
BFFM is not a hyped up new product, its a tried and tested established fat loss program that really works! The great thing is that the principles work for everyone, not just men and its also a great source of knowledge if you want to learn more about health and fitness. Tom has provided a LOT of information for those really interested in learning how to lose and maintain their weight. Its 340 pages long and isn’t really a diet, so much as a manual to change your life and the way you approach eating and overall health. Its also got a great goal setting section, which is actually amazing – it proved to me just how important goal setting is – almost more so than a diet and fitness program.
If you want to learn about fat loss and how your body works so that you can take control over your weight then this is a fantastic guide that should prove really useful, its not a quick fix but it does work.
Price
-$39.95, great price for a great product.
Ease of Use
- 3stars, Although there is way more information than other products this could be a disadvantage if you are prone to information over-load.
Customer Care
- 4stars, Such a great forum and facebook page really make you feel like you are part of a community and its so inspiring too.
Results
- 3.5stars, yes this gets results, it really does, but its not the quickest fat loss program out there, for speed try Joel Marion’s product below.

Fat loss
Xtreme Fat Loss Diet – Joel Marion
One of the top 50 personal trainers in America, as voted by Men’s Health magazine, has created this fantastic and really effective fat loss strategy. I call it a strategy because it is more than just a diet. Joel shows you how to combine diet and exercise and not just what to eat but when to eat it for greatest fat loss effect.
Its actually really interesting to learn about the hormones on our bodies and how they work to boost fat loss, if we take advantage of them. One thing which I was not aware of until reviewing this program is the effect of the hormone leptin on fat levels. Low calorie diets can be very destructive because after a few days the leptin levels in your body will drop a lot. This is terrible for fat loss as high leptin levels mean a fast metabolism. Its ok tho because Joel has developed a 5 day cycle with a cheat day incorporated to increase leptin levels. Each of the days in the cycle performs a specific task in the fight against body fat and the cycle is repeated over 25 days for the maximum effect.
This is not a maintenance diet, this is a fat loss program and should only be repeated again after 8-12 weeks. Some of the techniques are a bit extreme, for example one of the days in the cycle is a shake day, with only protein shakes allowed! But if you are looking for fat loss as your main objective then all the information is here to help you get the results you are after. A diet manual, training log, guide to supplementation and reference guide are all included and the program also comes with a money back guarantee as Joel really believes that this is the most effective way to lose body fat – ever!
Price
- 2stars, $97 is a bit steep for me but if you really want fat loss then this is the way to get it.
Ease of Use
- 3 stars, Although the diet manual is very comprehensive, this type of dieting may not fit in well if you like to always eat as a family.
Customer Care
- 2 stars, unfortunately emails are not always answered quickly, which can be a problem if you need to ask about special requirements
Results
- 3 stars, there is no doubt that this gives results but it is quite hardcore and a certain level of self control and determination is required to keep it going for 25 days.

Building Muscle
No Nonsense Muscle Building – Vince Delmonte
Vince Delmonte is another internet fitness trainer who has been around for a while now. He is best known for his muscle building program, which he developed from personal experience. Vince used to be a skinny guy but now he is big and buff and ripped!
If you want to know the secrets to putting on muscle without getting fat then you have to get this program – there is no one better qualified to tell you what to do than a guy who has already done what you want to do.
The program features exercises that Vince KNOWS work and is developed to take you from beginner to advanced muscularity. You start off by building up your fitness and preparing the muscles for growth, next you move on to the full muscle building program.
Both programs come with planning calendar and log sheets to make it really easy for you to succeed and best of all Vince has given a demonstration of all the exercises so that you get the most from your workouts by performing the exercises correctly every time.

Female Specific
Full-Body-Liscious – Flavia Delmonte
Flavia Delmonte is the wife of Vince Delmonte (pretty obvious) who had her own body transformation when she got ready for her wedding. Every woman’s dream is to look beautiful on her wedding day and Flavia certainly did. She has decided since then to undertake all the training required to become a certified trainer and nutritionist so that she can help women just like her to get the bodies of their dreams.
I first discovered Flavia on the Bodyweight Exercise Revolution blog where she was demonstrating the correct form of squating for us girls. I was immediately interested in her easy demonstration style and her own great physique!
She follows the theory that to look feminine you have to train with weights and eat right, and so she incorporates a lot of weight exercises into the programme. Its not the type of weight training to get big bulky muscles (we don’t have enough testosterone for that anyway) what it is going to do is make you look curvy in the right way, with a small waist, great legs and beautiful back and arms.
There is also information on specific training for female muscle type, why a calorie reduced diet won’t work and why cardio will not get the results you want.
Flavia really covers it all in this program! Its not going to be easy tho so if hard workouts that really produce great results ins NOT what you want then you should look elsewhere for your body transformation program.
Price
- 3 stars, at $67 it seems quite expensive but for all the collaboration with top trainers and nutrition experts, including Doctor John Berardi, you really are getting a lot for your money and the pay a bit now promotion (only pay $29.95 now, pay rest after 22days) makes it a little easier to handle.
Ease of Use
- 3stars, Flavia has worked together with other top trainers to ensure these exercises are as effective and well explained as possible, however gym equipment is necessary for best results.
Customer Care
- 4 stars, Flavia is really keen to be helpful to everyone and it shows.
Results
- 3.5 stars, the results really are amazing with this program, you just have to be prepared to put in the hard work and consider changes to your diet.

No-gym Program
Bodyweight Exercise Revolution – Ryan and Adam
I have written about this course before because I just think its really neat to have a program based entirely on body weight exercises. Its also really great that they give away a free e-book so you can see if its for you before buying. I love the free pdf so much I have even done a video to show you some of the exercises – take a look!
The principles behind the success of bodyweight exercises is that our bodies were not made to sit still and then go to the gym and use machines, they were made to do so many different movements and actions which we can now recreate for brilliant fitness results and an amazing physique.
Take it from me – these exercises work parts of the body that I never even knew existed!
The great thing is that if you love this free course then you have the chance to buy in to the full Bodyweight Exercise Revolution, where you can join the community and get access to even more exercises that can be done anywhere and without a gym membership. You will also learn how to get long-term lasting fitness and even look and feel younger, which is always good 
There is no need to worry about being too unfit or unable to do the exercises because by their very nature these exercises are all adaptable to any fitness level from true beginner to elite navy seal.
Bodyweight exercises are also awesome as a way to show off to your friends, which is personally why I love them and tis program will give you loads more ways to look great!
Price
- 4stars, $47 I love that this product is one of the cheaper ones out there – this one payment is all you need to make.
Ease of Use
- 4stars, all you need is you!
Customer Care
- 4stars, access to both Adam and Ryan through the forums and updates to all future releases of the product.
Results
- 3.5stars, of course this gives fantastic results but there is a large emphasis on you so if you need a trainer to be pushing you or you need to be at the gym to feel like working out then this isn’t going to work for you. I love it tho!
Comprehensive Eating Plan
Get Lean Program – Belinda Benn
I have a personal reason for recommending this product and that is just that I LOVE it! Its a full 90 day eating program that is split into three parts. First you are introduced to the healthy eating for fat loss, next the calories are reduced and the diet is tightened up in preparation for the final phase which is to strip the fat and get you as lean as possible.
The best things about the program is that all meals are planned out for you – for every single day. There is also the option to eat-out by using the cheat meals that are incorporated into the plan. These can be taken when is most convenient for you so that the plan can be used around weddings, birthdays or whatever you need to fit in.
Belinda also includes a fantastic audio which is so helpful to combat emotional eating problems and I have to admit I found myself listening to it over and over again.
If you are looking for an eating plan which covers all your meals, introduces you to new and tasty healthy, fat burning meals, and personal support from the author then you should really try this program – its fantastic!
Price
- 4stars, $47.75 at less than 50c a day this is fantastic value for a full 90 day eating plan and then on top of this the emotional support is outstanding
Ease of Use
- 4stars, Everything is created for you, even shopping lists.
Customer Care
- 3.5 stars, Belinda replies to all email personally but I have found that it does take a few days
Results
-4stars, how can you not get results when she makes it so easy for you!?
