Sworkit Pro
Download the free app, choose your workout (they are categorised into body areas, times, cardio, yoga and varying intensities) and you’re good to go. The exercise section on the website has videos showing you how to do specific moves – very handy if you have no idea what a Genie Sit or Spiderman push-up is.
Fitness Blender
Run by psychologist Kelli and sports scientist Daniel, who “believe fitness should be accessible to everyone, everywhere, regardless of income level or access to a gym.” As such their site contains around 300 workout videos, ranging from 30 minutes to one hour that you can do at home. You can tailor the workouts according to time, equipment needed and target zones.
Bodyrock TV
If you’re easily bored by your workouts then trainer Lisa-Marie (who has abs to die for) is the woman for you. Everyday she uploads daily workouts on her blog, while all of her videos can also be found on her YouTube page.
XHIT Daily
As the name suggests, workouts are loaded daily. What we love about this channel is that it specialises in celebrity-themed routines – Beyonce Butt Workout, anyone? The videos are short allowing you to mix and match classes.
InnerFight
With their aim to help you become the best you can be, the InnerFight team – who are probably some of the fittest people we’ve ever seen – provide intense circuit training routines, which, if followed correctly, will leave you fighting fit. Note: not for the weak willed.
