Circuit Training:"Some Kind of Wonderful" Full-Body

     Some days I reeaallly don't feel like going to the gym, but I know that I can't get into that easy excuse habit.  I've found that no equipment circuits are perfect for these days.  I have a plan and get started, but if I don't finish I still fill like I did something active that day.  The best thing about circuits is that you can alter the workout to your mood, energy level, and strength.  As always, begin with stretching and a light cardio warm-up.  The goal for each circuit workout is to repeat each set of three exercises twice.  Start with one and build up!
     This workout is inspired by Grand Funk Railroad's "Some Kind of Wonderful"  because as I strengthen my body I feel more and more wonderful (hokey I know!).  So here ya go!  Start slow and small and build it up.  The goal is to be better and stronger.  Make sure you drink plenty of water!
