For our circuit today we are going to be focusing on barbell squat and then a lower body circuit using dumbbells. As you progress in your barbell squat sets, be sure to increase the weight. The circuit will be made up of 5 exercises, which we will do 4 rounds of. How fast your move through the circuit is totally up to you, just be sure to complete the set number or reps for each exercise.
