The Parks And Recreation star looked ready to work up a sweat, clad in a sleeveless black blouse, neon yellow sports bra, and black leggings.

She also had on a pair of grey trainers, as her strawberry locks were swept up in a messy bun.

Amy came prepared for her fitness regimen, carrying a Late Night With Seth Meyers canvas tote and a black sports bag.

It was recently announced that the Mean Girls actress is in negotiations to star opposite Will Ferrell in the forthcoming comedy, The House, reports Variety.

The pair last shared the screen together in 2007's Blades OF Glory.

Will is set to play a husband who joins forces with his neighbours to craft up an illegal casino in his basement after he and his wife (Amy) blow their daughter’s college fund.

Meanwhile, Amy is collaborating with Mindy Kaling in her latest venture, which sees the duo play the voices behind the film's animated characters - Joy and Disgust.

The ingenious movie by the Pixar studio which brought the world Toy Story almost 20 years ago, shows characters personifying basic human emotions of Joy, Anger, Disgust, Fear and Sadness acting out their roles in the head of a young girl named Riley.

Speaking of the role, Amy previously told Fast Company: 'It’s an artistic endeavour that I feel truly adds value to the world.

'I don’t know if I’ve worked on another film where I could say that.'

The Golden Globe winner has also teamed up with Bradley Cooper once again as counsellors Ben and Susie in Wet Hot American Summer.

The eight-episode miniseries - streaming July 31 - is based in 1981 at fictional New England Camp Firewood and takes place before the events from the 2001 satirical summer camp comedy.

'We thought it was funny that in the original we played a bunch of teenagers,' co-creator Michael Showalter said in a statement. 'Now we're in or forties and our characters are even younger.'
