Circuit Training:

Circuit training is a form of body conditioning that combines strength training and aerobic exercises. This training method is highly effective for improving overall fitness, as it targets multiple muscle groups while boosting cardiovascular endurance.

    1. Variety of Exercises: A circuit usually consists of a mix of exercises that can include bodyweight movements, resistance training, and cardio. Common exercises include squats, push-ups, lunges, burpees, and jumping jacks.

    2. Sets and Repetitions: Participants generally complete a set number of repetitions for each exercise, typically ranging between 8 to 15. After completing one round of all exercises, a short break may be taken before repeating the circuit.

    3. Intensity: Circuit training can be easily adjusted to accommodate different fitness levels. Participants can modify the intensity by changing the duration of exercise, number of repetitions, or weight used.

    4. Time Efficiency: One of the main benefits of circuit training is its efficiency. A full workout can be completed in a shorter period while still providing a comprehensive exercise session.

    5. Skill Development: This type of training can help improve coordination, agility, and balance, making it a well-rounded fitness option.

    1. Increased Metabolism: The combination of strength and cardio work can lead to a higher calorie burn, both during and after the workout.

    2. Improved Strength and Endurance: Regular circuit training can contribute to overall fitness improvements, enhancing both muscular strength and aerobic capacity.

    3. Flexibility: The dynamic nature of circuit training means that routines can be easily adjusted to keep workouts fresh and challenging.

The health benefits of strength training are well documented in the modern day, and this is particularly true for more senior individuals in our community.

Regular exercise and training reduces the risks of fails, frailty, and sarcopenia - to name but a few, but also to keep up with the grandkids!
