Whilst doing something is better than doing nothing, the circuit's effectiveness in improving both cardiovascular fitness and muscular strength / tone would be considerably improved if there was a focus on starting with heavier dumbbells (e.g. 8-10lb), increasing the weights further as fitness improves and by carefully controlling rest time between sets. It's a myth that women should fear becoming bulky - genetically impossible without steroids.
