True Aerobic Circuit Training
Frequency: 2-3 times per week
Time: 20-60 minutes
Circuit training is a great way to achieve the benefits of strength training and cardiovascular 
training in one quick, challenging routine. By returning to an aerobic exercise between each 
set you are increasing your aerobic capacity, endurance and burning fat as energy. The idea 
is to move quickly from exercise to exercise, taking only as much rest between sets as it takes 
to set up the next exercise (less than 20 seconds). One circuit equals one set of each exercise. 
Initially, start with completing one round of Circuit 1. Then add an additional round of the same 
circuit. Once you reach three rounds of Circuit 1, add one round of Circuit 2. Add additional 
rounds of Circuit 2 as your fitness level increases. Do not let your heart rate exceed 220 minus 
your resting heart rate. Perform each rep of each exercise slowly and with perfect technique. 
Count three seconds up and three seconds down.
 Any type of aerobic exercise can be used for this routine. Some examples are: jumping jacks, jogging 
in place, or stair climbing.
