I AM Done With the CARDIO
So here I am, after a KILLER workout this morning! (Don’t mind the sleepy, just out of bed look) I am still doing the Big 5 Circuit Workouts. This is week 3 I think and for some reason, I don’t recall Workout C being this difficult? Maybe it was the added weights I did, but dang..it kicked A$$!
It’s a barbell circuit which consists of the following exercises doing each 15 repetitions:
A)Squat (45lbs)
B)Push Press (20lbs..could have used more)
C)BB Bent Over Row (45lbs)
D)Forward Lunge (20lbs)
E)Mountain Climber (BW)
Rest 1 minute in between and repeated 3x! Yea, I was sweating like I had just run 5 miles and huffin and puffin! LOOOOVE me workouts like that! I am totally digging the way my arms are looking too. I have always wanted nice, toned arms and I finally have them!
So back to the no more cardio for me…well, I have still not done any cardio machine in over 2 months. It feels GREAT! For one, I hate doing cardio. Instead I have been doing bodyweight circuits 3x per week, along with my circuit strength training. So this is my plan, when I finish the TT challenge, I am going to start making up my own circuits and trying this out on my clients and see what happens and if they like it better!

Excellent post! I’m going to have to try this out. I’ve been using my twice per week soccer games and once per week volleyball as my exercise routine. I’d like to see some faster results though. I’ll try this circuit as well! Thanks!
This circuit will definitely be a good one to add to your routine to “kick it up” a notch! Good Luck and let me know how it goes!
