S&C (Circuits)

Circuit Training

Each Tuesday throughout the winter we run a circuit training session at Moss Side Leisure Centre. This begins at 8.00pm following the swim sessions. This is ideal for those new to the sport or those who are not involved with the gym based S&C programme. The circuit class will follow a similar format to the gym based S&C programme in terms of the development of the sessions, however due to the equipment available the resistance is not as high so a focus has to be placed on the total load through higher reps. As it is done as a circuit with short rests between exercises, it adds an element of aerobic conditioning for fast and slow twitch muscles fibres. A number of core exercises are included for improved economy of movement and injury prevention.
