Circuit Training

Circuit Training is a method of physical conditioning in which you move from one exercise to another usually in a series of different stations or pieces of equipment. There are many different types of circuit training which can stress all of the components of fitness but the component that Mr. Owen set out for us to train was muscular endurance. We had 10 stations of work which used different parts of the body on each of them. We had a 25 second rest period after each station. Each station lasted for one minuet.

We did-

1. Push Ups (biceps)
2. Powering a bench up above our head (biceps)
3. Bench Step (quads)
4. Sit Ups (abdominal)
5. Squats (theighs)
6. Wall climb (all of the body)
7. Berpies (all parts of the body)
8. Bench jump(caths, quads)
9. Laying Down Pull Ups(biceps)

This was a hard training session with allot of benefits. Because it has so many stations it used allot of different muscles of the body. Also it wasn't just muscular endurance we used it was also C.V endurance and a hint of flexibility. The disadvantage of this is that because its hard people might not have the motivation to do it.
