AMRAP Workout

HIIT workouts continued!

This week let’s talk about AMRAP, which stands for “as many rounds as possible.”

Like HIIT, AMRAP workouts are done at a high intensity. The difference being HIIT workouts have a fixed number of reps and sets, AMRAP workouts have a fixed time frame.

AMRAP workouts have many benefits, one of my favorite (similar to HIIT) is they are for a fixed time, so you know exactly how long your workout is going to last, thus how long you need to push yourself!

Here are other benefits of AMRAP workouts:

  • They accommodate all levels of fitness. You workout at YOUR max intensity or effort.
  • Fixed time (had to mention this one again because it is so great!) is great motivation for working hard during the time frame.
  • Focus is on form, rather than reps, allowing you to improve your technique under pressure and fatigue.
  • Great for fat loss
  • Builds your confidence and metal toughness
  • Easy to track your progress. You know how many rounds you can do so when you do the workout again you can try to match or beat your initial number.
