Workout For Women
Instructions: Warm up by performing the first four exercises of each circuit once with light weights. Then, perform each complete circuit of exercises with less than one minute rest between each exercise. Rest three minutes between entire circuits. Perform the whole circuit twice.
Except for the warm up round, you should be using challenging weights for each exercise. Although you’re not supposed to train to failure for circuit training (you’ll run out of breath), choose a weight that allows you to perform 15 reps with the last few reps of the set harder to perform.

And here’s my suggestion of a workout split throughout the week for my female readers:
Monday – Cardio
Tuesday – Workout 1
Wednesday – Rest
Thursday – Workout 2
Friday – Party!
Saturday – Cardio
Sunday – Rest





Yu-Kym: Haha. Thanks. Yup, not all gyms are complete. Hope you get the best out of your gym anyway.
Wilson: What's the difference for you? You're too young anyway. Hahaha!
how come girls workout spilt have 'party' in them but guys don't have?
This is good, especially with the links to the videos/pictures because I do a number of these but I don't know what they're called. Some gyms don't have all the equipment, e.g. for the Pec Deck Fly, but there are enough in your list that require only the use of dumbbells which are easier to get hold of in gyms.
