During these cold winter months, we sometimes need to get creative to keep our bodies fit. Circuit exercises involve completing a few different movements in sets with short periods of rest between them. These circuits are great because they engage your entire body, they’re a quick and efficient workout, and they require little to no equipment. They can also be performed alone or with a group of friends to keep everyone moving!
Drew Murray, PT, DPT, a physical therapist at our sister-company Bay State Physical Therapy, Somerset got the entire office involved in demonstrating the circuit training program he designed.
We recommend doing these exercises in a safe and comfortable setting. Check with your physical therapist if you have any questions or concerns when performing these exercises.

Try doing these exercises to the beat of your favorite song, with sets of 15-20 repetitions, or over a time of 20-30 seconds with short rest periods between exercises.
