Circuit training is used to train elite units. What is the effectiveness of such training for ordinary people?
The basic principle of circuit training was developed back in 1953. After a few decades, circuit training began to be used in fitness clubs to burn fat. Indeed, the effectiveness of circuit training lies in the fact that it is able not only to "dry out" the body, but also to develop in it strength qualities and endurance in parallel.
Circuit training is a set of exercises that must be performed with high intensity and for a minimum period of time. Each exercise should be aimed at developing a specific muscle group.
Standard Circuit Workout Routine:
1. Warm up
2. Running 500 meters at an above average pace
3. Bench press from the ground
4. Flexion and extension of the trunk
5. Squat
6. Exercise for the development of triceps
7. Jumping rope
8. Cool down
In this example, "circle" - exercises from point 2 to point 7. The number of approaches is determined by the capabilities of the body. All exercises are performed at the fastest possible pace and without interruption.
Circuit training can also be done at home or outdoors. You don't have to buy a gym membership. Nevertheless, before starting classes, you should consult a doctor. Circuit training is extremely contraindicated for people with heart disease.
