I keep seeing publications like Men's Fitness always pushing circuit routines, especially touting them as a celebrity's workout... like Ryan Phillippe and Jason Statham.
But many good online trainers on youtube etc say to stay away from circuits unless you're a fatty trying to lose weight. Some even shit all over circuit training as the worst thing ever.
Are the celebs endorsing these routines because they're 'a safe bet' in their eyes, or is it really what they do?
They're good for endurance. Or if you're on roids, like most celebs.

If it's a machine circuit, it's already garbage. If its an actual conditioning circuit, it can be useful for developing work capacit and improving recovery. As far as strength goes, gains will be small and only come for a very short period, nowhere near as productive as a strength program.
Bear in mind that these routines are based on the premise that you'll kep subscribing to these resources and give them money. If they give you a program that makes you independent of them, they cease making money from you.

Makes sense.
