I love circuit training.  It is such an effective way to work-out.  Plus, the possibilities are endless!!!

Today I did a circuit in my garage for my 43.  (Actually, it was my entire work-out!)

Here is the circuit:

• Jump rope x 5
• Squat – hold 5 count
• Dumbbell front raise to side, down, raise and move back to front (like a T) x 5
• Alt side kicks x 5 each way
• Standing oblique crunches – slow and controlled x 5 each side
• Calf raises

I did make a change for my 43 from the demo.  I did the calf raises at the same time as the dumbbell move so I went up on my toes when I raised the dumbbells to the front and stayed up until I lowered them back in front.  I figured that way I worked multiple muscle groups and actually had to hold the calf raises longer.

It took me 56:35 to complete 43 times through the circuit.  The only time I stopped was to make tally marks after every 5 sets so that I didn’t lose count.

A great thing about doing the circuit in my garage was this spectacular view:

Happy Sunday!
