Ideally, a circuit can comprise anywhere between three to six exercises with minimal rest breaks, like HIIT. They are performed in multiple rounds - up to three or four. These exercises can be resistance workouts, dynamic movements, or even isometric holds.

How is Circuit Training Effective for Weight Loss Contrary to common misconception, studies have shown that circuit training can be more effective for weight loss than traditional low-intensity, steady-state exercises, like running, cycling, swimming etc. That can be attributed to the different exercises of various intensities performed in circuit training as well as the utilization of other fuel systems in the body.

More specifically, circuit training is considered a form of anaerobic training, i.e. the body produces oxygen to meet its requirements during these short bursts of energy.

Unlike aerobic exercises, where the intensity is low enough for the body to use the oxygen it receives, this form of training burns more calories. View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Another little known fact is that strength training boosts the body’s calorie-burning potential for hours longer than cardio workouts, meaning you end up burning more calories simply while resting. Incorporating strength movements into a circuit is a surefire way to amp up the fat burn.

View this post on Instagram Instagram Post However, when it comes to weight loss, there are several other factors that come into play. Exercise is only one part of this journey; your diet and lifestyle also have big roles to play. If losing fat while toning your muscles is what you’re aiming for with circuit training, it would be best for you to follow a diet that’s high in protein and relatively low in carbs.

Don’t cut carbs and fats out completely - they’re exactly what you need to fuel your circuits. Your diet should also comprise micronutrients and water.

Taking your vitamins daily will ensure smooth functioning of all systems in your body, thereby facilitating improved digestion, absorption of nutrients, and subsequently burning fat. Staying hydrated is also important for these functions. Drinking enough water during the day can regularly flush out any toxins in the body.
