At Home Full Body Circuit Workout

At Home Full Body Circuit Workout

This at home full body circuit workout is a quick, 20-minute circuit that you can do with very little equipment in your own home. Sneak this in when you get home from work or when the kids are down for a nap. I promise, you will feel better if you fit exercise into your day!


This circuit works the best with a set of stairs, but if you don’t have access to stairs you can jog in place or do step-ups on a curb or stable bench. You will also need two sets of dumbbells (one lighter set 3-5 lbs and one heavier set 8-15 lbs) or you can do all of these exercises with resistance bands.


Remember, to get the most out of a quick circuit workout, you should be moving right from one exercise to the next with no rest in between. You can rest at the end!
