I added a toning/aerobic type circuit to the end of my workout every other day. I am starting to get addicted to my quick circuit, and the results I have been seeing from it to the point that I want to do it every day. Is this something I can do every day without risking overtraining? I push myself pretty quickly through it with my focus on keeping my heart rate up, and getting a really good pump. Here is what I am doing.
4 cycles through this circuit
25 dips - two cycles wide grip, two narrow
12 pull ups - each cycle at a different grip
25 push ups - two cycles diamond, two wide
10 body weight rows**
15 straight leg lifts up to eye level
** looks like an upside down push-up. I elevate my feet on a bench, and hang (face up) from a bar on the squat rack. I then pull myslef up until my chest touches the bar. This is a LOT harder than it seems.
Adding this to the end of my workouts has really helped tone and define my upper body a lot. It is getting easier and easier, and I am wanting to increase frequency to once a day...or should I just increase reps. Opinions?
