Maximum
Results with Minimal Effort
Whether you are circuit training or walking,
there is definitely a
positive benefit of
exercising when dieting. For
example, walking for 30-40
mins alone, demonstrates
this benefit as an increase
in lean body mass and a
decrease in weight.
However, most of you can "kick it up a notch!" Training in a
circuit is the perfect
solution. This type of
exercise combines aerobic
and anaerobic training all
in one. You control the
pace, but try to keep within
a moderate strenuous level
in order to see the results
you want.
Anyone can do this...just cater to your need for water and rest.
It's low impact, tones
muscles, improves
cardiovascular performance,
and PREVENTS WEIGHT GAIN.
The Circuit
You don't need a fancy gym membership but if it
helps go get it. You will
need the following:
1) A gym (optional)
2) If you're doing this on
your own, you'll need:
-
Weights or
-
resistance cords.
3) 9 stations-3 resistance, 3 aerobic, and 3
combinations
4) Timer
Set up each station to do a different exercise (see chart link
below). Work with the
resistance cords and give
yourself some time to get
used to them. Spend one day
per station getting familiar
with the exercise. Then
start the actual training
circuit the following week.
That entire process costs $20-50 (if you search around ) to set up
AND maintain. Join a gym and
pay lots more.
Hints:
-
Circuit training is high
reps & short rest--> Key
to success.
-
Set should last 10-15
seconds.
-
Control time of set by
weight choice & movement
cadence.
-
Slow controlled movement
is best.
-
Aerobic & anaerobic
exercises combine for
the BEST report.
