BODY SHAPE CHANGING
Muscle Growth & Fat Loss
It should be pointed out that the diet will produce the main outcome when it comes to fat loss and building muscle mass but these classes are designed to burn a large amount of calories in a short amount of time while using weights to stimulate muscle growth & strength. With more muscle tone and a stronger performance, you can burn even more calories, even at rest as your metabolic rate increases with your muscle tone.
HEALTH CHANGING
Improved Longevity
"Research shows that physical activity can also boost self-esteem, mood, sleep quality and energy, as well as reducing your risk of stress, clinical depression, dementia and Alzheimer's disease" - NHS website
By engaging in 'moderate' intensity exercise regularly, you also reduce your risk of coronary heart disease, reduce body weight, reduce blood pressure, reduce bad (LDL) and total cholesterol and increase in good (HDL) cholesterol as well as reducing insulin sensitivity.
ntegrating resistance machines, barbells, and cardio equipment into your high-intensity interval training (HIIT) circuit class offers a comprehensive workout that enhances both strength and cardiovascular fitness. Here are several benefits of this combined approach, supported by scientific research:
​
Comprehensive Fitness Improvement
Combining resistance training with cardiovascular exercises in a circuit format enhances both muscular strength and cardiovascular endurance. This dual approach leads to improved overall fitness levels.
​
Full-Body Workout
Circuit training offers a comprehensive workout by targeting various muscle groups, enhancing both strength and endurance.
​
Improved Blood Pressure and Heart Rate
Regular participation in HIIT can help reduce heart rate and
blood pressure, contributing to overall cardiovascular health.
​
Enhanced Insulin Sensitivity
HIIT may improve blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity,
which is beneficial for metabolic health.
​
Efficient Calorie Burning
The high-intensity nature of circuit training, especially when
incorporating both strength and cardio elements, increases
heart rate and energy expenditure. This efficiency makes it effective for weight loss and improving cardiovascular health.
​
Enhanced Muscular Strength and Endurance
Utilizing resistance machines and barbells in your circuit promotes muscle strength and endurance. The structured nature of machine-based exercises allows for controlled movements, reducing the risk of injury and ensuring proper form.
​
Improved Cardiovascular Health
Incorporating cardio equipment into the circuit elevates heart rate, enhancing cardiovascular fitness. Regular participation in such circuits can lead to better heart health and increased aerobic capacity.
​
Time Efficiency
Circuit training allows participants to engage in a full-body workout within a shorter time frame by minimizing rest periods between exercises. This efficiency is beneficial for individuals with busy schedules seeking comprehensive fitness improvements.
​
Versatility and Adaptability
The use of various equipment types enables the design of diverse and adaptable workouts, catering to different fitness levels and goals. This variety helps maintain participant engagement and motivation.
​
By incorporating resistance machines, barbells, and cardio equipment into your HIIT circuit class, participants can experience these multifaceted benefits, leading to improved health and performance.
