Welcome to Training Top Tips where I will be adding new training sessions and tips regularly.
Training Top Tip One - Circuit Training
Circuit training should be an essential part of training in most sports. It is a great all round body workout that can be modified depending on your level of fitness or sporting interest. During my athletics career I incorporated circuits into my training schedule all year round. In the winter I did more frequent, harder sessions and reduced the number and intensity during the summer season.

Endurance Circuit Training One
Endurance Circuit One. Ideal for 1-36 people.
This circuit is great for winter training if done as a whole routine. It can however be modified by making it as short/long or easy/intensive as you need.
Start with group number one, rotating around the four exercises, before moving to group two and so on.
Don’t forget that with circuits the repetitions/timings are set depending on the workout you need, the time of the year and the muscle groups you need to work.
E.g. Full circuit - 30-45 seconds on each exercise, move straight on to next exercise.
OR A number of repetitions on each exercise of 10 upwards, moving on to next exercise after resting 10/20 secsonds.
All circuits that I post can be done as an overload circuit where you do one body group at a time, i.e. all arms, then all trunk, then all legs. So you would go through the groups as follows - 1-4-7, 2-5-8, 3-6-9.
