Though we tune in faithfully every year to the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show, we have a love/hate relationship with it. Let's just say our watching ritual may involve a tub of ice cream for when we ugly-cry about not having Candice Swanepoel's six-pack abs. But this year's going to be different, thanks to XHIT Best Victoria's Secret Ab Workout.
This challenging 16-minute workout will help you get the abs of your dreams (and might make you whimper a little in the process). Fun and relatable fitness trainer Kelsey Lee leads you through a series of 30- and 60- mat exercises (think flutter kicks, bicycles, crunches and planks) that isolate all the key muscles you need for Karlie Kloss-worthy abs.

Best Workout for a J-Lo Booty
Barre workouts focus on using body weight to lengthen, tone and sculpt muscle -- no ballet shoes or leotard required. This 20 minute at-home barre workout will help you sculpt your J-Lo booty, and all you need is a chair.
The Insanity master is back, this time focusing his madness on arms and shoulders. Beachbody trainer Shaun T leads you through a 24-minute workout that uses hand weights to work shoulders, biceps, triceps and muscles you didn't even know you have. For those without hand weights, never fear: Shaun T alternates with body-weight moves. (Disclaimer: If you plan on driving afterwards, be prepared to look like a crazy person. I could barely hold the steering wheel without my arms visibly shaking.)
Bubbly YouTube fitness guru Cassey Ho, creator of POP Pilates and Blogilates, teaches you in 10 short minutes how to strengthen, tighten and tone your legs with her Pilates-inspired moves. If you're ultra-committed, sign on for her 30-day thigh-slimming challenge. So long, saddlebags.
For days when you want to squeeze in a full-body workout but don't have a ton of time, inspirational fitness trainer Rebecca Louise makes every muscle burn in just 30 minutes. Her body-shaping moves will work your abs, core, legs, butt, arms and shoulders -- and torch nearly 300 calories in the process. Don't let the serene background or relaxing music fool you -- this workout is intense.
We can come up with a thousand excuses for skipping the gym. It's cold outside. You can't find your shoes. Those grunt-y bodybuilders make finding your happy place completely impossible. Plain and simple, it's a hassle to get to the gym and you just don't feel like going. Still, that entire pizza you devoured last night while binge-watching Netflix isn't going to burn itself off.
Which is why we scoured the vast internet to find the best free workouts you can do right in your living room, no gym required. Bonus feature? No muscle heads to mess with your endorphins.
Whether you're into sculpting, Tracy Anderson style or are more of a SoulCycle girl, these at-home YouTube workouts will burn fat, sculpt muscle and keep you seriously motivated.
