How do I start circuit training?

Start by finding a space to work out and setting up your equipment. If you're working out at home, you can use whatever weights or other objects you have around the house. If you're going to the gym, most gyms will have dumbbells, barbells, and weight machines that you can use.

Next, choose the exercises you want to do for your circuit training workout. A good mix of upper and lower body exercises is always a good idea. And don't forget to include some cardio! Jumping jacks, running in place, or even biking are all great options.

Once you have your exercises picked out, it's time to start timing yourself. Set a timer for each exercise and give yourself a certain amount of time to complete the set. For example, you might do 10 push-ups in 30 seconds, then take a 15-second break before moving on to the next exercise.

As you get more comfortable with circuit training, you can increase the number of exercises or the amount of time you spend on each one. Just remember to listen to your body and take breaks when you need them. With circuit training, a little bit goes a long way!
