YouTube is the free workout library of your dreams [1], stocked with intense full-body workouts aplenty. And as a fitness editor and a 20-something in 2019, I consider myself a connoisseur. You just can't go wrong with a good full-body workout video: you're hitting every muscle group, saving tons of time, and getting guidance from trainers onscreen, all for free. If you're not sure what workout to do today, allow me to recommend one of these nine full-body burners, which range from HIIT and strength training to cardio. Grab a sports bra, hit play, and get moving.
Pilates Workout Challenge
This low-impact Pilates-inspired bodyweight challenge needs just 19 minutes to absolutely ignite your core and butt. The combination of tough twisting moves and heaven-sent stretching breaks will leave your body feeling amazing by the end.
30-Minute Full-Body Strength-Training Workout With Weights
This isn't your average strength-training workout. Nike master trainer Betina Gozo plays with speed, slowing down the moves that we often rush through, like squats, rows, and single-leg deadlifts, for maximum strength gains. The result: serious burn in every muscle!
Total Body Tune-Up
Just 14 minutes long, this full-body bodyweight toning session from Rebecca Louise doesn't require any weights to feel a burn. It's the pulses that bring the pain, and they are everywhere: in curtsy lunges, bridges, air squats, and more. Your legs are gonna need a breather after this one.
45-Minute Full-Body Toning Workout
Jake DuPree's abs and butt Class FitSugar workout [2] is one of my favourites, so the fact that he also has this 45-minute full-body toning routine, complete with weights and his signature amazing attitude, is a blessing to us all.
Advanced Dumbbell Full-Body Workout with Cardio Intervals
This fast-paced 30-minute workout combines all-over strength moves with cardio sets for an efficient, effective workout. Grab a pair of dumbbells (here's how to choose the right weight [3]) and get going!
30-Minute Calorie-Burning, Tabata-Style HIIT Workout
This quick Tabata-plus-weights workout is a fantastic two-for-one: you torch calories with the HIIT structure and cardio intervals and build muscle with the longer, muscle-building sections. Trainer Raneir Pollard's enthusiasm is infectious.
Intense 30 Minute Full Body HIIT
Anybody for a HIIT workout? This 30-minute bodyweight routine includes 28 unique exercises (no repeats equals no boredom!) and is set to a playlist that's just as intense as the moves.
45-Minute Epic Cardio Boxing Workout
"45 minutes?!" was my panicked thought when I first hit play on this video, but it's such a satisfying and effective full-body cardio workout that I've replayed it countless times since then. I always finish up drenched in sweat.
Full- Body Workout with Dumbbells
With challenging compound moves like side plank crunches, weighted lunges, and V-sit chest flies, this easy-to-follow workout keeps every muscle burning for the the full 45 minutes.
