Do you like circuit training?

[treelover]

Hello, I'm new here, figured I would just jump right in. I love circuit training. I think it is so much more interesting and intense than straight sets, etc. I just finished a great circuit dvd. It was a great total body workout and it only took around half an hour. This is what I love about circuit training! And of course if you want more you can always go another round. I found the dvd on video fitness, its called 'Exercise 4 EveryBody' by a guy name Barry Lovelace. Does anyone else have any reccomendations? Does anyone else out there like to circuit train?

It's not effective at all for my goals. So that would be "no" to your question.

I used to go to this circuit training class which was really excellent

You had to partner up, and your partner would have to do an exercise for as long as it took you to run 2 laps of the gym we were in. Then you'd swap and work your way around the different exercises.

It was brilliant, there was a real element of competition and we were always absolutely exhausted by the time we left.

I enjoy hard circuit training using bodyweight exercises, but for the time being its not going to help me achieve any goals. Will go back to it though to aid my core once my compostition is where it needs to be at.

Depending on your goals, a good circuit routine can be quite beneficial.

I'd say it's more for fat burning.

I definately encourage circuit training if you are trying to lean out or when training for sports like football, rugby, soccer, etc...but I would not say it's worth your time if you are trying to bulk
