Circuit Training
Circuit Training is a fun and effective way to exercise. It can be enjoyed by everyone, men, women, younger and older age groups. Circuit Training combines cardio vascular exercises together with muscular strength and endurance exercises. You spend either 30 seconds or up to a minute on each station then move onto the next. Circuit training is suitable for beginners to people who exercise regularly.
What does cardio vascular mean?
Cardio vascular is the ability of the heart, lungs and circulatory system to transport and utilise oxygen effectively. Working the heart, lungs and circulatory system will improve fitness and stamina. Exercises that will get the heart and lungs working include: -
Jogging/Running
Knee lifts
Skipping
What does muscular strength and endurance mean?
Muscular strength is the ability of our muscles to lift heavy resistances (weights) for a short period of time. Muscular endurance is the muscle contraction being maintained for a longer duration.
Exercises that will get the muscles working include:-
Bicep Curls
Tricep Dips
Lunges
