You guys ready to get sweaty with a high intensity interval circuit workout today?
This particular workout is very similar to one that I enjoyed giving to a few of my training clients. It combines a whole mix of stuff, including plenty of core stability exercises, which are some of the most important of all.
The only equipment you’ll need is a set of dumbbells, which will only be used for the first exercise; other than that, you’re just using your bodyweight. I hope you guys have fun with this one!
Oh, and always, here’s some photos to demonstrate each of the exercises.
Squat w/ Dumbbell Press Elbow Plank
Wall Sit Side Plank with Leg Raise
Alternating Lunges Swimmers
Squat with Front Kick Flutter Kicks
Squat Thrusts Lateral Hops

Avery @ Southern Belle Living Well says
I like the challege in this, but also how quick it seems! (yay, Tabata-style!) I am curious to how this affects your pregnancy, especially the Squat Thrusts. Are some exercises more difficult than others?

Madison says
Awesome workout and seems like fun, sweaty, and quick (all good things in my book). :)
Kelly @ Femme Fitale says
Good one! Squat Thrusts (or even Burpees) make everything better….or worse. Depends on how you look at it! haha
My fitness participants temporarily hated me whenever they heard either one of those words.
Claire @Flake and Cake says
This looks like such a killer workout Courtney, will try it at the gym this weekend :)
Meghan @ After the Ivy League says
Looks like a great workout! I love that you always include pictures too…sometimes I think I remember what a move is called, and once I scroll down and see the picture I can confirm it. Super helpful!
Laurie @ Love, Laugh, Laurie says
This looks awesome, and I am definitely doing it!! Thanks!
Jamie says
Your Swimmers excercise image did not display. Can I assume that another name for that excercise is Superman? Thanks!
Courtney says
Yes, pretty much! Same position, just doing the motion that you’re swimming by kicking legs and arms overhead
Jamie says
Thanks for the clarification, greatly appreciate it. Can’t wait to try this circuit this weekend!!
Kathleen says
Great workouts … but you can’t fool me … those squat thrusts are burpees in disguise … my nemesis in exercise workouts :) Thanks for sharing this and I can’t wait to give it a try after work today!!
Bek @ Crave says
When I saw it I was like :O isn’t she suppose to not do high intensity when pregnant haha! But then I read it was for your clients :P Looks like a killer!
Emily @ Hungry Delights says
Looks like so much fun! I will be sure to try this out on my next cardio day!

Circuit training is the best way to go especially if you have a personal trainer or friend to push you.
