Let’s take a look at some popular programs to help with your weight loss. One popular among many including the navy, army, sports participants and other athletes at health and fitness centers, is circuit training, a high-energy aerobic workout that’s combined with weight resistance training and equipment (not necessarily gym equipment; can be down at home). What circuit training actually is seems to vary, depending upon the trainer or fitness program. Many features appear in descriptions like:
- The training session needs to focus on approximately 12 strength and aerobic/anaerobic exercises or stations (recommended numbers ranged from 9 – 12).
- The training focuses on activities that are twofold: those that build strength and muscle tone, and those that burn fat and improve endurance.
- The training needs to include high repetitions with lighter weights for ease on joints and tendons.
- Each exercise should be done only once, then move on.
- There should be very little, if any, rest between exercises or stations (some fitness gurus recommend 30-seconds maximum rest time between stations).
- What works best is to cross-train or NOT focus only on one single circuit or one type of training only. Instead, alternate your training stations with different exercise activities that focus on different parts of the body or fitness groups on alternate days or every other day.
- Combine your program with about 3 quarts of water and 4 or 5 small meals each day to help with your overall weight goals.
