Last week we wrote a blog about our top 5 pieces of home exercise equipment, so we thought we would put them to the test with this home circuit training workout.

This home circuit training workout is a total body workout designed to develop your fitness levels, burn body fat and improve your general muscle tone. To keep the intensity high, aim to have minimal rest between exercises. If you’re a beginner repeat the circuit x 2, if you’re more experienced then repeat the circuit x 3.

The purpose of the warm up is to loosen your muscles and gradually increase your heart rate and breathing rate. Perform the following exercises x 12 reps.

Squats, reverse lunges, forward lunge & rotation, jog on the spot, knees high, heels to bum.
