40 Minute Total Body Workout


Each Circuit is done for 8 minutes.  When the 8 minutes is up, you are done, even if it is mid circuit.

Each circuit starts out with a lower body exercise, moving on to an active rest, and then an upper body exercise.  

You will want to be prepared before each circuit with the weights you will need for each exercise so you can keep the circuit moving along.  I chose basic exercises but make sure you are familiar with them all so you can move from one exercise to the next.

Circuit 1, 3 and 5have ab exercises.  So if you are more comfortable on a mat make sure you have one ready to go.

5 Circuits x 8 minutes = 40 minutes.  That does not include the time it takes to stop and rest after each circuit.

You want to move quickly but remember FORM is most important.

Get a stopwatch ( I use the stop watch on my phone ).  These workouts are fun!  ENJOY!! I have posted a 7-minute shoulder workout similar to this back in my feed if you are interested.
