my circuit - what is it and is it any good/effective?
hi guys
i have designed a lower body circuit to help with my inch loss goals. It goes something like this:
repeat circuit 3 times. each move is done with 15 reps.
- reverse lunge (2nd circuit hold a weight)
- deadlifts with a weight
- squat (3rd circuit with a weight)
- forward lunge
- sumo squat with weight
- on all fours leg lift - dnt know what its called
- bridge - lie on back and lift bum off floor
- side leg lift
- abdominal crunches
- pilates twist - abs
- lower ab crunches
- plank hold for 30 seconds
- press ups
- calf raise
- bicep curl/tricep work
- shoulder/back work
how does this sound??? will it work?? also for cal countin purposes do i log this as circuit training or calisthenics or weight training?? the numbers vary a lot and im only eating 1200 cals so dont want to eat under...as ive been doing this circuit a lot.
any feedback appreciated
thanks

You do all this in one workout? You might try diversifying your routine so you hit different muscle groups on different days. You can then do different exercises during each workout. You'll benefit more from the change up.
oh! i didnt realise this could be a bad circuit - id be doing it 3 times a week on alternate days in between cardio sessions.
ok it might be better to mix it up a bit though. i just concentrated on the lower body as thats the only area i w ant to improve!
