Abstract: Circuit training is a popular exercise modality that combines aerobic and resistance training in a structured format. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of circuit training by assessing its benefits and drawbacks for diverse fitness goals. We conducted a systematic review of existing literature, designed a controlled experiment, and analyzed the results to gain insights into the efficacy of circuit training. Our findings suggest that circuit training can be a versatile and effective training method for a wide range of fitness goals, with some limitations and considerations. Circuit training is not without its drawbacks. This analysis highlights potential risks such as overtraining, injury risks associated with improper technique, and limitations in targeting specific muscle groups. Furthermore, the suitability of circuit training for specific fitness goals, such as maximal strength or hypertrophy, is evaluated, suggesting that it may not always be the optimal choice for these objectives.
