I think I’ve talked about it multiple times, but I just love this circuit workout.
It makes time fly by and it gives me a great workout. Even when I have no desire to exercise, I get excited just thinking about this.
The whole thing takes about 45 minutes, depending on how quickly I move. It is tough, but I look at the cardio part as my recovery, spending about 30 seconds of the cardio portion ‘recovering,’ then getting intense again.
Try it – I promise you will love it!
(Or kinda hate it, but still love it.)
Staple Circuit
5 min warm up
5 mins intense cardio (I use the elliptical)
30 walking lunges
10 pull ups (I use the assisted pullup machine when needed)
75 second plank hold
20 pushups
REPEAT 5 TIMES
5 minute cool down

That is a serious workout.
That said, I’ll be trying it next time I hit up the gym :D Pull ups are my favorite lately– I feel so FIERCE when I do them.

Wow, I tried this circuit today and it kicked my ass! I only made it 3x (partly b/c of time and partly b/c I don’t think I could have made it through 5x). I look forward to challenging myself to get through 5x!
Thanks!!
