Substitute for Circuit Max?

[babydollsea]

Happy Thanksgiving Cathe and all!!!!!

I am planning to do the May 2003 Rotation but do not own the Circuit Max Workout.


I have the following Dvds:

Rhythmic Step +
Interval Max, MIC DVD

Power Hour +
MIS, Body Max DVD

Slow & Heavy series DVD

Pure Strength series DVD

Vol 1,2,3 and Terminator Intensity Series DVDs

Plus all the classic step workouts on vhs.

I am so pleased with my results I am getting with your workouts and rotations. Your advice is greatly appreciated!!!

Thank you,
Marla

Hello,

Cardio & Weights would be a great substitution.

Actually, whenever I do IMaxExtreme from the Terminator DVD, Circuit Max pops into my mind.

Somehow, I think those two have the same intensity.

I think Cardio and Weights, even if you do it on 8" is substantially easier than Circuit Max. I would compare it to Interval Max 1, or maybe the Gauntlet?

Circuit max would probably be comparable to Bootcamp done at pull-out-all-the-stops pace.

Actually, Circuit max is one of my faves, there's nothing really comparable to it. Cardio and Weights is much easier, but you could make it more intense by doing 2 mins weights for upper body, then adding 2 minutes of squats/lunges, etc, with the Power Circuit 25 pound barbell, then back to the cardio again.

Just a suggestion for the criminally insane exercise enthusiast!

How about the Gauntlet? You could modify the length and/or intensity by doing fewer cycles or by cutting some of the extra weights work or extra cardio.
