    FitSugar Full-Body Circuit Workout

    I love a good circuit workout for many reasons. These workouts are great for strength training, but they also keep your heart rate up, helping burn up the calories while building muscles. This full-body circuit combines many exercises so you work your arms while toning your legs. Plus your core, abs, and back will all be challenged. And you can do this workout in the comfort of your living room.

    Not only is an at-home workout excuse-proof, it is also recession-proof since it is free and will only cost you calories! Check out this full-body circuit workout that fits in your living room. It takes about 20 minutes to do, and for the workout all you need is a set of dumbbells between five and eight pounds. If you don't have weights, you can still give it a go.

    Instructions: After warming up with light cardio for five minutes, repeat each three-exercise circuit twice, resting for 60 seconds after completing one rep of an entire circuit.

    gr8 workout, to make it even more challenging I add 5 minutes of jumping rope...1 set after warming up then another set after each circuit and to cool down I use Fit's lower body strecth yoga...totals up to about 1hr.

    Hi guys, I made slapped the pics and reps of this set into a pdf so I could take it to the gym, figured I might as well upload it to save someone else the time to do the same. It's not anywhere near as pretty as the one's Fit makes, but you're welcome to use it:
