Bodyweight Circuits For Fat Loss

Bodyweight exercises are a great way to build strength and burn fat. Here’s an example of a bodyweight conditioning circuit that I use with some of my clients. You can use this circuit as is or change the exercises for a short hard interval training session.

30 seconds of star jumps
30 seconds rest
30 seconds of bodyweight squats
30 seconds rest
30 seconds of mountain climbers
and 30 seconds of rest

Complete as many reps as possible in each 30 second work phase. Start with 2-3 circuits and steadily build the number of circuits. Other options to increase the difficulty include reducing the rest time between sets and adding further exercises into the circuit. As always you should start slowly and build up the intensity over time.
