The Power Circuit

Here’s a nice little workout to try out if you have time this weekend. It’s a little program I like to call the Power Circuit.

The Power Circuit is a series of six exercises performed for a total of 3 to 5 circuits.

What you do is go through the exercises doing one set of each and when you get to the end, rest very briefly and move on to the next circuit, performing the exercises again until you go through those 3 to 5 circuits.

It’s great for building muscle and developing excellent cardiovascular conditioning. The key is to keep rest as minimal as possible. No more than enough time to change the weights and that’s all.

Warm up with some light cardio before jumping headlong into the Power Circuit. Use 50-75% of your max weight for the first two circuits and then as much as you can handle for the last 1 to 3 sets.

The Power Circuit

Overhead Press 8-10 reps
Bench Press 8-10 reps
Rows 10-12 reps
Curls 8-10 reps
Squats 10-15 reps
Crunches 25 reps

Notes: Do the exercises in the exact order for 3-5 circuits. Rest minimally between circuits and exercises. The idea is to not only build your muscles, but your endurance as well. Perform this circuit 2-3 days a week. Eat right, get adequate rest, and drink lots of water. Train hard and heavy with max intensity and you can’t go wrong.

Understand that to be successful in any weight training program – hard work is a must! Half-hearted effort does nothing for you. If you’re new to weight training or grossly out of shape, consult a physician first. End of disclaimer.
