sprinting, circuit weight training If you are looking for build muscle quick, then circuit weight training can help you get there. Arrange your exercises to work on specific muscle groups or for a total body workout.

Hopefully you know about the circuit training basics and have come here for some great circuit weight training workouts.

If you do not have freeweights, try our Bodyweight Circuit Training Routines.

These exercises will be performed for 15-60 seconds each with no rests in between. If you are new to this, start at 15 seconds and try adding 5-10 seconds each week.

It's really up to you, your fitness level, and where you are working out. If you are outside, try doing some sprints or even running up a hill. These are all great options to keep your heart pumping and increase you cardiovascular endurance.

    Follow these routines or create some of your own using the resources on our site. As I mentioned in some of the other articles, you can tailor your routines to suit your individual exercise goals and lifestyle.

    If you're busy on Monday, do 30s intervals instead of 60s. Do 8 exercises for 2 circuits instead of one. Make your workout work for you.
