Circuit training is a workout that is organized with high repetitions but low weight, often only incorporating body weight for resistance. This is an effective way to reduce body fat while strengthening your core and increasing overall muscle tone.
This is my go-to circuit training workout when I need to get fit fast, but time to commit to training is an issue. Do three sets of each exercise per day, with up to two minutes of rest between sets.
