Squat down, lifting the weights toward your shoulders, keeping the elbows in tight to the waist.

30 Minute at home Circuit Workout - it's all about the timing

It’s fast, it’s effective, it’s challenging: it’s circuit training. In just 30 minutes you can raise your heart rate, build muscle and burn fat.

I know what you’re thinking, 30 minutes, that’s not enough time to truly get a good workout. Why bother? But before you walk away and decide to spend the next half hour lying on the sofa channel surfing, consider this, scientific evidence has proven that the combination of a resistance training regimen with a cardiovascular element increases your metabolism, which builds muscle and burns fat. The result is an overall decrease in body fat percentage. And yes, it can be done in just 30-minutes.
