FIERCE at Home AMRAP Workout
To do this workout, you’ll need a set of dumbbells and a mat or towel. If you don’t have dumbbells, use something similar such as water bottles instead.
There are three circuits to complete, each with three exercises. The goal is to do as many repetitions of each exercise (AMRAP stands for ‘as many reps as possible) as you can during the 45 seconds allocated, before moving on to the next exercise.
The workout will take around 45 minutes, but if you are short on time, you can do one lap of each circuit to reduce the total time to 12-15 minutes.
Before beginning the workout, take five minutes to warm up your body with some at-home cardio moves or dynamic stretches.
Then pump up a playlist that makes you feel great and get started.

AMRAP workouts like this are high-intensity sessions, designed to build your strength and fitness simultaneously. As your fitness increases, you’ll be able to do more reps of each exercise.
As with any form of training, you’ll get maximum benefit from the workout when you focus on using proper form. If you’re unfamiliar with any of the exercises, take the time to study the exercise demonstration before beginning to make sure you are doing them properly.
When you follow the program in the SWEAT app, you’ll find detailed instructions along with each exercise that contain cues to ensure your technique is correct.
