A metabolic circuit could help you burn calories and torch major muscle groups in a short amount of time. It’s also a great way to combine strength and cardio exercises into one workout, which is why we love them. Great news for those who don’t want to spend hours in the gym, but you’ll need to be prepared for some serious sweat.

To do this workout, you’ll need a set of the best adjustable dumbbells, a medicine ball and a jump rope, but we’ve got substitutions below if you have limited access to equipment. But before you jump in feet first, fat loss isn’t a one-workout feat, despite high-intensity metabolic circuits potentially increasing fat burn. Find out what metabolic training involves and how it could be the secret to calorie burn and fat loss.
