I hate to be the one to put gym’s out of business, because they definitely have their role… But there is nothing like a good home grown workout routine that you can do-at home! With the Best 20-minute Circuit Home Workout Routine you don’t have to spend 20 minutes to get to the gym. Once you are there, you don’t have to worry about someone taking your locker, or some stranger watching you undress. No worries about touching a barbell handle that someone deposited funky sweat on, and best of all, you get to control the playlist!

If you aren’t sold quite yet, I guarantee that trying this workout routine will get you on the home workout bandwagon for sure. Honestly, I used to personally be a big “gym head.” However, once I was forced to exercise at home, mostly because of time constraints, I quickly became convinced that home workout routines were just as good, if not better, than gym workouts.

To keep it simple, you won’t even need any weights for this 20-minute circuit workout routine. You can’t argue with the convenience and simplicity of using your own body weight!

I hate to humble you, but this workout routine will show you that you are not really as strong as you think you are!

Perform each exercise for 90 seconds. Take a 30 second break between exercises. Finish all of the exercises, take a one-minute break, and then repeat. If you are using a heavy weight to build muscle, move at a slower pace. If you are using a lighter weight, you may go at a faster pace to build endurance.
