Metabolic Cardio Workout – Angela’s Skipping Circuit

Great circuit Angela did New Year’s Eve at SST Oakville in Canada. This Metabolic Cardio Circuit not only helps to improve your cardiovascular system but overall strength.

Exercises in the circuit target your entire body including core strength, upper body muscular endurance, power, explosiveness, glutes and leg strength.  This is a type of workout that Angela would use when training for a Muay Thai fight to supplement her regular high level training.
