Circuit Training Mix Up!

Hey guys,

Hope everyone had a great weekend, and for those of you who celebrate, I hope you had a good Easter as well.

This weeks workout is a circuit, this means you will be given a certain number of exercises that are timed, with a timed break in between as well. You can do this workout at home if you have resistance bands or dumbbells.

This workout will consist of 7 exercises with suicide runs in between each set. Let's get going!

You will preform this circuit 3 times with 2 minutes of rest in between each circuit.

  • Each exercise will be preformed for 30 seconds with as little rest between each exercise. 
  • Equipment: Resistance band or dumbbells, a matt ( if you want), a bench or wall, and some place to run! 

Standing Ticep Over Head Extension: (this can be done with a resistance band or dumbbells)





Jump Squats: 

Bent Over Flyes: (can be done with dumbbells or bands) 



Box Jumps: 


Plank: (you can make this has hard as you want, pick a limb up off the floor, or opposing limbs, suicide planks, whatever is challenging for you) 


Suicide Runs: (you will need three objets equal distance apart)


Bulgarian Squats: (you will preform 15 seconds on one leg and 15 on the other) 


Once you have completed one round of 30 seconds of each exercises, you will then preform a series of sprints. 

You will sprint 100 feet or the length of a basketball court as fast as you can to the end. Walk back slowly. Make sure you catch your breath, then repeat 2 more times for a total of 3 rounds. 

Once you have completed your sprints you will preform 2 more rounds. Completing 3 rounds all together. 

Good luck and enjoy! Until Thursday! 

Pistols...Out!
