Circuits are a bootcamp staple, but let’s be honest, running the same 60-second station format week after week can get stale. For you and your clients. In this episode of The Warm-Up, I’m diving into five creative ways to breathe life back into your circuit sessions. These simple tweaks keep things fresh, help your clients stay engaged, and make you feel excited to coach again. We’ll cover: How to use in-between drills and finishers to add surprise and intensity The underrated power of mini circuits and three-person formats Making workouts feel more purposeful with drill-based stations How to turn “I go, you go” into a client favourite Creative ways to change your timing structure without losing the circuit vibe This episode was inspired by Sarah and Ginger, two longtime readers of the Bootcamp Ideas newsletter, who shared that they were feeling stuck in a workout rut (thanks for sending in the questions!).
