Need a Good Circuit Workout

• ernest_t_bass

  

  I need some suggestions for a good circuit workout that I can do 3 days per week, in about 34-45 minutes. All I have access to is dumbells and basic free weights. Only track machines are lat machine, leg press, leg curl. Any suggestions?

The second workout are lifts that incorporate multiple muscles and alot of core positioning that make lifts alot harder. Makes you sore as hell.
  
  
  What do you want? A whole list of lifts in proper order?
  

  Not sure yet. Ideas first, I guess, then maybe some examples. I just started today with some upper body lifts... dumbell curls, dumbell bench, lat pull downs, butterflies with dumbells, skull crushers. Did this in about 30 minutes.

  I'm just looking for some stuff to stay toned. When I had the time (before marriage and kids) I would lift 3 days per week, with a partner, focusing on different muscle groups each day of the week, with cardio in the off days. Now that I don't have the extra time, I have to squeeze it in my planning period.
  
  My time will probably allow for 5-6 exercises per day, depending on the exercise. I usually do 2-3 exercises at a time, in rotation, as long as they work different muscle groups. (So one muscle can rest while I'm working the other. IE, legs then curls)

  I saw "circuit" and the first thing I thought of was Johnny 5.

  Look into doing HIIT (high intensity interval training). Basically cardio for short intense periods following by periods of rest. It's great for getting the HR up and doesn't take much time at all.
