Circuit training is becoming more and more popular as people are seeing the benefits it has, it can improve your strength, aerobic fitness as well as burning fat in one workout, and due to its constant variation of each station it is much more interesting than most forms of training.

Circuit training is designed for all age groups and levels of fitness; it is a highly efficient form of training, each exercise is performed using a variation of muscle groups; therefore you are working a muscle group at one station, whilst the other muscles are resting.

Each Circuit consists between 9-12 stations, little or no rest between exercises, and it's the technique performed we are looking at, not how many you can do in a minute as poor technique can be introduced due to poor management of doing that exercise.

As with all exercise programmes, we start the circuit with an appropriate warm-up to include pulse raising, mobility and short stretch, followed by an extra pulse raiser to ensure that the class are warmed up thoroughly for the circuit.

On completion of the circuit, the cool down should commence at the level of the last station, gradually reducing range of movement and lowering the pulse; each session is finished with a final flexibility session including all the major muscle groups used
