Step 1
Begin with a warm up. If you are at a circuit training gym, jog on the first platform for a warm up. Otherwise, either walk or ride a bike for a few minutes to get the muscles ready for resistance training.
-
Step 2
Start your first resistance exercise. Most circuit training gyms use hydraulic equipment and the resistance is adjusted by the turn of a knob. Otherwise, adjust weight at a comfortable level so that you can maintain the exercise at a moderately fast pace for about 30 seconds.
-
Step 3
Move through the circuit switching stations every 30 seconds with cardiovascular exercise alternating in between each resistance training exercise.
-
Step 4
Continue through the cycle until at least 30 minutes of exercise is completed. Depending on the size of the circuit this may be 2 to 3 cycles.
-
Step 5
Cool down with a slow jog, walk or riding a bike for at least a few minutes. It may be a good idea to stretch afterwards.
