Workout Plan to Lose 30 lbs or Less

My scale has been stuck for the last 3 months.  I am not sure if it is because of winter or because I haven't been trying super hard, but I need to step it up since summer is right around the corner.

My friend sent me this site for Sarah Fit.  She has a ton of different exercises, food examples, and everything on her site.  I am going to try her workout plan to lose 30 lbs or less.  


This plan was designed by Mike D'Angelo of Revolution Fitness in Boston.

DAY A

Start with a warm up until you break a sweat, which will be about 5-10 minutes on a cardio machine or dynamic stretching.  Do each move for 12-20 reps each, moving from one exercise to the next within each circuit.  One you have completed all 4 exercises in circuit 1, repeat the first four exercises 1-2 more times.  One you have completed the two-three sets, move on to circuit 2, and then 3.

Circuit 1
§  Sky Dives
§  Back Extensions
§  Overhead Press
§  Upright Row

Circuit 2
§  Long Handle Shoulder Pull
§  Triceps Dips (with exercise ball)
§  Triceps Pull down
§  Lateral Pull down

Circuit 3
§  Assisted V Twist with Medicine Ball
§  Oblique Extension


DAY B

To do this workout, start with a 10-15 light warm-up on your cardio machine of your choice.  Then start with Circuit 1.  Do each exercise for 15-20 reps and then move on to the next move with little to no rest.  Once you have completed all three moves, go back to the top and repeat set two more times.  Once you have completed 3 sets, move on to Circuit 2.  Do the same thing as you did for Circuit 1 and finish off with two sets of each ab exercise.

Circuit 1 
§  Smith Machine Squats
§  Bench Press
§  Bicep Curls

Circuit 2
§  Walking Lunges with Dumbbells
§  Incline Bench Press
§  Reverse Curl

Circuit 3
§  Physio Ball Torso Twist
§  Slings
§  Reverse Incline Crunches
