Hi, I used to do circuit training a lot back in the day for health class and I must say it worked a hell of a lot better than just normal weight lifting. It should be incorporated into everyone’s work outs.

Excellent summary of circuit training benefits. I find it’s a great way to gain muscle, lose fat, and get a great cardiovascular workout all at once. Throw in the fact that it’s time efficient, can be done anytime and anywhere, and it’s something that should be included in everyone’s training.

I like the benefit of the time efficiency of circuit training. The cool thing is that this works really well with “old school” body weight exercises like push ups, burpees, jumping jacks, etc. I do this during Christmas time when I am short on time during the winter season.
Solid post,
