Whether you’re short on time and need a workout that you can fit in ASAP, or are trying to gain some lean muscle whilst burning fat, this strength circuit can help. It doesn’t require a trip down to the gym either, you just need a pair of dumbbells, or you could even use a single kettlebell, and taking no longer than 25 minutes you can have it done and dusted before dinner.
Circuits aren’t just good for when you’re short on time, due to their fast-paced nature, the National Academy of Medicine says they can also produce the same anabolic signaling that regular resistance training does – meaning you don’t have to spend hours in the gym pumping iron. Studies have also shown that circuit training can lead to an average reduction of 4.3% body fat and boost cardiovascular fitness by an average of 6.3% — so, overall, it's pretty darn good!
