:hug:

I actually like them :D

Sohee needs some circuits Erik :lol:

Nuh uh! I am trying to gain weight :muahaha:

You don't count.

I say that w/ love. :lol:

Sohee needs some circuits Erik :lol:

Yes, give her double.

BURPEES!!!

You will be getting them back you know :muahaha:

[Blondell]

I do prefer them over hiit though. I prefer most things over hiit. :o

[Inatic]

BURPEES!!!

You will be getting them back you know :muahaha:

oh and mountain climbers :hehe:

I guess Cathie doesnt count either :lol:

[Blondell]

No, she doesn't. :sad:

She's soon to be in the same category as you. Her posts lately have been very disappointing. :funny:

Hey :p

:lol3:

I like mountain climbers :D

[Blondell]

I'm assuming I should be eating right after these. Is that correct?

[kirstny]

I HAVE to eat right after!
:lol:

I MUCH prefer them over ss or interval cardio.

[Blondell]

I'm the opposite. Stuff like that sometimes makes me nauseous. Food isn't the first thing on my mind. :lol:

[Amy]

:hug:

Sohee needs some circuits Erik :lol:


:ditto:

I must say that this one I had last night was H-E-L-L! And to think I only got a 30 second rest before starting it again. I though I was going to tear my program into tiny shreads! :tantrum:

:lol:

[Amy]

I should add that- I guess mine are not circuits per say...they were more like finishers at the end of my training...which made it worse. It's like telling my muscles "we know you are tired from squats and walking lunges, etc. etc. but we are going to ignore that and torture you." :girly:

:sad:

[jills]

I'll be getting circuits back soon. :runaway:

I'm living in dread, people. Dread.

Ahhh yes. I've done those.

It's not fun.

:cardio:

:cardio:

just.wrong. :sad:

[Sandy]

I've just added some body weight circuits to my program. Much better than mind-numbing SS cardio.

It is a love-hate relationship!

I made my husband do the circuit with me today. I think he called me some not so loving names. :lol:

[Anca]

I actually preferred BW circuits over 90 min depletion workouts. I dreaded those. :suicide:

[Sohee]

BURPEES!!!

You will be getting them back you know :muahaha:

Then I will learn to like them :muahaha:

:irule:

:lol: I did this to my husband and had a laugh attack. He got a bad cramp...in his butt. :lol3: I thought he was joking-then he dropped to the floor. :funny:

are you done bulking already Jill?

[jills]

are you done bulking already Jill?

not yet, i've got another 4 weeks. I'm circuit-dreading in advance.

[rainy]

I've got circuits on my new plan. They didn't look like much on paper, but boy oh boy was I wrong.... I was begging for mercy after the first round, and still had 2 to go.

I thought the same thing when I was just looking at them. :lol:

:ban: us fat kids have four rounds! :yucky:

but yes they work!

Depends on the circuit - there's a ton of circuit permutations.

I have 5 rounds of the mini-circuit!
Whew.


Actually, as sick as it sounds, I do enjoy it... in a way.
:hehe:

well tbh I was just happy to finish! I remember last year circuits really got to me mentally but I won't let it happen this year :bunny::bannana::lifter:

I often have a point in my circuits where I'm thinking "this is too hard, I can't do this." But, I keep going and feel SO good when I'm done!
:lol:

I sometimes have to rest during them, but I'm working on shortening that rest time every time I do them.
:lifter:

[Lynny]

could someone point me in the direction of what a circuit training session looks like?

[Erik]

could someone point me in the direction of what a circuit training session looks like?

Could be anything from a bunch of bodyweight type exercises with high reps and short rests thrown together, to a combination of bodyweight and resistance based exercises again with higher reps and shorter rests, etc.

Basically some form of exercise done with as a cycle/circuit with metabolic parameters.

Could you explain metabolic parameters? Thanks.

[Lynny]

ok that makes sense. Thank you!!!

oh yippee. :lol:

[arouss4]

Then I will learn to like them :muahaha:

:irule:

you never learn to like burpees!!

I bet you some of your circuts are close to some of the stuff we used to do for track at LSU. I'll have to compare yours to the years worth of workouts I have saved and let you know.

:hug:

I actually like them :D

Sohee needs some circuits Erik :lol:

I need to meet you someday Inatic! I love them too.... Oh, AND I love sumo deadlifts.... They are officially my new favorite thing ever...:lifter:

[alandrum]

as long as mine do not contain burpees then I really like them. Burpees are a pain! I LOVE sumo dls too!!

[Inatic]
