>> Easy-blowing might better describe it than resistant. <<

Do you mean softer reed and/or closer mouthpiece? I'm not sure what you mean by "more flexible" reed or a reed that "needs some embouchure pressure" since that can apply in different ways to any setup.

It's all relative to what a player is used to. Excellent players use setups that vary significantly from very light/soft to extremely resistant. Setups of players who circular breath also vary just about as much.

Circular breathing can be more tiring on the embouchure (jaw muscles...?) because you have no rests, though it's almost insignificant to (e.g.) those who use it just a few times during a long piece.
