Circuit training is an excellent way to improve mobility, strength and stamina. This circuit training format utilizes a group of 8 strength exercises that are completed one exercise after another with little or no break. Each exercise is performed for a prescribed amount of time before moving on to the next exercise. The exercises within each circuit are separated by brief, timed rest intervals, and each circuit is separated by a longer rest period. The total number of circuits performed during a training session may vary from two to six depending on your training level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced), your period of training (preparation or competition) and your training objective.

Beginner:

· 30 seconds per exercise

· 30 second break in between:

· Total number of circuits: 2-3

Intermediate:

· 45 seconds per exercise

· 15 second break in between

· Total number of circuits: 3-4

Advance:

· 60 seconds per exercise

· 10 second break in between

· Total number of circuits: 3-4

Example for a beginner: Do chest press for 30 seconds (whatever amount you can complete), followed by 30 second break. Next, perform box jump for 30 seconds (whatever amount you can complete) followed by a 30 second break. Repeat until the last exercise (One arm standing concentration curl) and go back to band pres again; for a complete a total of 2-3 rounds.
