Ready for a 4-week-3-circuit workout?

We did a 5-day circuit challenge last month with 10 exercises repeated each day until you were doing five sets on the last day. This time we are doing a 3-circuit workout, 1 time a week for the next 4 weeks. 3 sets of each circuit. This circuit includes boxing, lower body, cardio, upper body and core. Phew! It has it all!
Circuit training is a great way to maximize your workout and minimize the time. By working through each exercise with little to know rest, you'll get through several exercises in less time than a typical workout session. This type of training also keeps your heart rate up as well as your muscles engaged to promote overall fitness. Circuit training builds your cardiovascular health, endurance, and provides more fat and calorie burning than some of the traditional strength training workouts. It also fights boredom moving from one exercise to the next. So are you ready to get started? Me too!
