Total BodyRock Blowout 10 Minute Circuit

Complete the circuit below once. 20 minutes or more, just repeat the circuit as many times as you want for a longer HIIT challenge! You can do this with no weight as a beginner, or add weight for more of a challenge. Don’t be afraid to go heavy on the weight when you can! Have 30 minutes? Maybe start out with a heavier weight and then with each round, drop the weight down a couple pounds, or vice versa! Start light and gradually get heavier, but remember by the 3rd round, your muscles will be fatigued, so form and safety with heavy weights, especially raising above your head is a focus.

bodyweight/weighted exercises. You’ll only be cheating yourself and your progress!

Each exercise you will repeat for 45 seconds, then move on to the next exercise. Once one full round is complete, rest for 30seconds to 1minute and then repeat the circuit if your time allows. If you are using a timer, you can set it for 45 seconds of work followed by 5 seconds of rest to transition between exercises. There are 11 exercises in total, so timer wise it will be 45 seconds of work, 5 seconds of rest, 11 exercises and/or rounds. Once you finish the 1st set of the 11 rounds/exercises, rest 30-60 seconds and then repeat if desired!

This is a high intensity circuit, so go at your own pace. Modify when needed and increase/decrease weight as necessary. If you are unclear of what each exercise is, refer to the photos.

Remember, if you are just starting out you do NOT have to use weight with the weighted work above. If you do not have dumbbells, you can use  tubing, kettle-bells, barbells, even soda cans! If you are not using weight, use slow and controlled movements, engaging your core and focusing on the muscles being used.
