Machine circuit · short rests
Machines are the easiest way to run a circuit in a busy gym: no setup, no spotter, and you can move between stations quickly without thinking about form under fatigue.
Go through all six with about forty-five seconds of rest, then repeat twice more. Keep the weights heavy enough that the last two reps are hard — a circuit done with weights that are too light becomes cardio with extra steps, and you lose the muscle-preserving part that made it worth doing.

No. Light weights and high reps do not burn meaningfully more fat, and they give up the strength signal that protects muscle. Keep the load challenging.
