Random Circuit Workout Generator


Hrmmm… what should I do for my workout today? As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, I like to mix it up at the gym. I rarely do the same routine more than a couple of times a month.

To assist in the mixing, I’ve created this “Random Circuit Workout Generator”. Click the button and it suggests 4 exercises to group together in a circuit style workout. It’s simple and it may make suggestions that aren’t too good, but sometimes it puts together what could be a pretty good circuit.

I think some useful additions to this “tool” might be:

  • Include categories of circuit types – bodyweight, barbell, dumbbell, machine
  • Allow choice for number of exercises for circuit
  • Classify exercises with muscle groups so that the same muscle group isn’t repeated
