I am currently obsessed with AMRAP workouts. They’re short, sweet, effective and can be done with little to no equipment; perfect for when you’re travelling or short of time.
What does AMRAP stand for?
As Many Rounds As Possible. That means, trying to complete a set circuit as many times as you can within a certain time frame. This is a useful workout structure as you can repeat the circuit again in a few weeks time and see if you can beat your previous record. A great way to track your progress and fitness levels.
Here are three of my favourite 15 minute AMRAP circuits. Set your timer and prepare the sweat.
The Upper Body Burner
5 Walkouts
10 Push Ups
20 Plank Shoulder Taps
30 Mountain Climbers
40 Skips
(no need for a rope, use an imaginary one!)
The Cardio & Abs Blast
50 jumping jacks
40 mountain climbers
30 second plank hold
10 plank jacks
5 burpees
The Leg Sculptor
21 squats
15 hip thrusts
9 jumping lunges (each leg)
As you can see, the workouts are super simple. All you need is yourself, a timer,and some motivation. Push yourself as hard as you can and be sure to count your rounds and reps. Then try to beat yourself next time!
