These fitness circuits are here to provide more variety in your training regime. These programs are not for absolute beginners so if you haven't been exercising for a while start by following a walking program.
Each of these Circuits give you the option to walk (if you have a low fitness level) or run/jog. I haven't added the specific exercises in each program yet but you can design your own. Here are some exercises that you may wish to choose from:
Upper Body:
Chair/Bench Dips
Push Ups
Wall Push Ups
Push Ups (Feet Up)
Punch In The Air
Punch Out In front
Reverse Pull Up: Legs Bent (Easy)
Reverse Pull Up (Harder)
Reverse Pull Up: Legs Raised (Hardest)
Lower Body:
Squats
Sissy Squats
High Steps
Side Lunges
Knee Lifts
Calve Raises
Abdominals:
Sit-Ups
Crunches
Toe Touches 1
Toe Touches 2
Lower back
Alternate Arm/Leg Raises
Hip Extension
Hip Extension with Arms
Chin Raises
I find it's best to to alternate between upper body, abdominals, and lower body. This not only gets the blood pumping all through the body, it also allows you to get more of a cardio workout as you won't get as much localized fatigue.
If you don't have witched hats (which I'm sure few of you do) just use shoes, light poles, or anything else you can utilyze.
Important: Before starting any of these circuits, always warm up for 5 mins then have a light stretch. Also, always take time to cool down properly. If you get half-way through and can't finish, don't sit down. Walk around and give your heart rate time to come down.
