Lesson 3.1: Circuit Class Design

Like all SilverSneakers classes, SilverSneakers Circuit follows a 5-segment format. The class segments are Warm-Up, Work, Cool-Down, Final Stretch and Relaxation.

While this design is like other classes, there are unique features that set Circuit apart as a specifically designed cardiovascular and muscular endurance class. The recommended length of this class is 45-60 minutes. 

Exercise selection is key in designing a safe, overall balanced class. In the following lessons, the 5-segments are broken down and the tips will help you as you develop your own choreography.
