stupidly i have a bit of lower back pain and right knee is a bit stiff. will rest only help me recover? apart from that should do more of the circuit training while the others do the beep test. any questions just ask.

Get some ice on the knee, that usually helps me. Ibuprofen do a spray which works wonders too (as it absorbs in to the area in which it is sprayed). But I'd take a few days off until the niggles have gone.
What are you wanting from your training? I'd do circuit training to help general fitness. The beep test is what it says, a test. So not something I'd incorporate in my training, apart from occassionally to roughly gauge my fitness. I say roughly, as it won't full represent how fit you will be on the bike.0 -
I'd take it easy and stretch gently for a bit.
Circuit training is good - I used to teach a kickboxing class that stuff (to the point of some throwing up...) and the fitness gains in everyone with staying power was immense.0 -

its only on monday late evening each week, its usual warm up , 2laps of 9 parts (20seconds each) of the circuit training then beep test to finish off (3 evening done so far). not quite sure, building muscle mass or probably body toning. i never go hard enough to throw up0
