Any advantages to cross training ?
doing 1 set of each excercize alowing 3 minutes between next set ?

Are you referring to supersets, in which multiple exercises are done in succession without rest between separate exercises until each is done?

or circuit training?

Sounds like circuit training to me, which I think is a great idea. There isn't much else you can do to match the conditioning effects that circuit training has on the body.

1 set each exercize with rest between sets

So, exercise A set 1, rest, exercise A set 2, rest. Or exercise A set 1, exercise B set 1, rest. Or what? One set each exercise w/rest b/t sets sounds just like normal training...

Yeah, there are definite advantages. Increased hormonal response and enhanced cardiovascular conditioning come to mind.
