Unlike CIZE, you aren’t working towards learning a full routine—you’re just following the steps as Autumn calls them out. Try it here.
3 Week Yoga Retreat
Type: Yoga
Time: 10-30 minutes/day for 21 days
Equipment: Yoga mat
Trainers: Vytas, Elise, Ted, and Faith
If you’re new to yoga or just want to improve your skills, 3 Week Yoga Retreat will guide you through three weeks of basic yoga classes to help you gain a solid foundation.
You’ll do a new class for 21 straight days, with the goal of improving your flexibility, increasing your balance, and relieving stress. Each week is led by a different instructor to help you gradually develop your skills.
The shorter, 10-minute weekend classes are taught by a fourth instructor, who focuses on relaxing and unwinding.
There is also a Beginner Basics section that breaks down core yoga techniques, like breathing, balance, and the proper way to do basic moves like downward dog and child’s pose. Try it here.
Barre Blend
Type: Low-impact/cardio/slim and tone
Time: 30-40 minutes/day for 8 weeks
Equipment: Dumbbells, Resistance Loops
Trainer: Elise Joan
Barre Blend is a new low-impact, total-body workout program from our very own barre expert, professional dancer, and 3 Week Yoga Retreat co-creator Elise Joan.
Elise has created the perfect fusion of ballet barre, Pilates, and cardio interval training, designed to help you burn fat and create a lean, toned physique.
Elise takes inspiration from her years as a professional dancer and fitness instructor to design full-body workouts that include high-rep, small-range movements and isometric holds, as well as compound exercises, targeted core work, and dynamic stretches.
Although each class is a total-body workout, Elise adds a special body-part focus each day for extra-targeted toning. And to make sure you get the best results possible, Elise adds cardio interval training to each workout to keep your heart rate up and help you burn maximum calories and fat.
A Little Obsessed
Type: Cardio, strength/muscle-building
Time: 30 minutes/day for 5 days
Equipment: Dumbbells, Resistance Loops, Strength Slides
Trainer: Autumn Calabrese
This five-day program is designed to prepare you for Autumn’s more intense program, 80 Day Obsession. The workouts are just 30 minutes long, and while each one has a different theme (booty, legs, cardio, etc.) they’ll help you burn fat and build muscle all over.
There’s also an eating plan that uses Portion-Control Containers to introduce you to the idea of Timed-Nutrition, a key element of the 80 Day Obsession program that dials in what you eat and when you eat it to optimize your results.
If you’re not sure if you’re ready for 80 Day Obsession, start with A Little Obsessed. The workouts are similar in both programs so you can get used to using the resistance loops and strength slides, but A Little Obsessed is slightly easier and can help you to work up to the more advanced program. Try it here.
SHIFT SHOP
Type: Cardio, strength/muscle-building
Time: 25-50 minutes/day for 21 days
Equipment: Dumbbells or resistance band, agility markers, PT sandbag (optional)
Trainer: Chris Downing
This three-week program utilizes a unique ramp-up method to help you reach a new level of fitness. The workouts alternate between cardio and strength training, and increase in length and intensity each week, from 25 minutes up to 45 minutes.
Designed with athletes in mind, it emphasizes drills that build agility, coordination, strength, power, and endurance. But the ramp-up method and modifiers (easier versions of the primary moves) make the program suitable for any fitness level.
We added four brand-new workouts in 2018 to take the “shift” to a whole new level.
You’ll still use Chris’ breakthrough “ramp-up” method of increasing your daily workout by 10 minutes every week, but this time we’ve added a Prep Week and new workouts designed to test your speed and strength as you get faster and stronger.
The workouts are only half of the challenge, though; an equally rigorous nutrition plan adds to the program’s difficulty, helping you refine your diet to maximize muscle growth and fat burning. Try it here.
21 Day Fix
Type: Cardio
Time: 10-30 minutes/day for 21 days
Equipment: Dumbbells or resistance band and exercise mat
Trainer: Autumn Calabrese
This three-week program includes 13 workouts and a simple nutrition plan. You’ll work out seven days a week, doing everything from cardio to strength training to yoga.
This Beachbody workout program provides beginners with an introduction to different kinds of exercise and those at more intermediate fitness levels with new challenges.
Most beginners start this program by following the modifier in the videos, then progress to doing the full moves as they become more familiar. The nutrition plan uses color-coded Portion-Control Containers, so you don’t have to count calories — instead, you’ll learn what proper portions look like. Try it here.
PiYo
Type: Low impact
Time: 13-45 minutes/day for 60 days
Equipment: Yoga mat
Trainer: Chalene Johnson
If you’re looking for a low-impact Beachbody workout that is still challenging, then PiYo is for you. Great for both beginners and those with a solid fitness base, the program combines the best of yoga and Pilates in a single program, with some extra cardio and strengthening exercises thrown into the mix.
The workouts are set to a fast pace so your heart rate stays elevated, helping you burn fat while you sculpt your muscles—no jumping or weights required. Other than a yoga mat, you don’t need any equipment to do this program. The main schedule features 10 different workouts, and the deluxe program includes two additional videos. Try it here.
CIZE
Type: Dance, cardio
Time: 30-50 minutes/day for 4 weeks
Equipment: None
Trainer: Shaun T
CIZE is a choreography-based Beachbody workout program that will teach you a different dance routine set to pop and hip-hop music each week. Even if you think you can’t dance, you can still do this program. In each routine, Shaun T breaks down the dance moves step by step and builds them into a full routine.
You’ll be moving the entire time to keep your heart rate up while you’re having fun. Choose from the beginner, advanced, or hybrid workout calendar, and try the “Next Level” workouts for an additional challenge.
Depending on the calendar you choose, you’ll be dancing either six or seven days each week. Try it here.
Brazil Butt Lift
Type: Cardio
Time: 10-50 minutes/day for 60 days
Equipment: Exercise band
Trainer: Leandro Carvalho
Focused on reshaping your booty without bulking up your thighs, Brazil Butt Lift will help lift, firm, and round your butt with strategic, targeted sculpting routines.

And this isn’t just a program for women—strengthening your hips and glutes can improve the way you move which can reduce the chance of injury, and that’s something from which everyone can benefit. Try it here.
22 Minute Hard Corps
Type: Cardio, strength/muscle-building
Time: 22 minutes/day for 8 weeks
Equipment: Dumbbells or PT sandbag and pull-up bar
Trainer: Tony Horton
With three cardio workouts, three resistance workouts, and two core workouts, these 22-minute videos will help you work your entire body in minimal time.
Inspired by the methods of boot camp fitness programs, 22 Minute Hard Corps uses a military-style cadence to work your entire body with basic, uncomplicated moves. There’s also a Battle Buddy partner workout for an additional challenge you can do with a friend.
The nutrition plan uses Beachbody’s Portion-Control Containers and includes an eating guide to help you navigate healthy eating with ease. 22 Minute Hard Corps is perfect for someone who is short on time but still wants to incorporate both cardio and resistance training into their schedule. Try it here.
FOCUS T25
Type: Cardio
Time: 25 minutes/day for 10 weeks
Equipment: Dumbbells or resistance band and exercise mat
Trainer: Shaun T
For five days a week, 25 minutes a day, this cardio and resistance training program will help you get results in record time. As an intermediate Beachbody workout program, it’s great for people with a seasoned fitness base, but those who find the moves too hard can still follow the modifier.
The main program is broken down into two stages: Alpha and Beta. They’re each five weeks long, with Beta providing similar, but more intense, workouts as well as the introduction of weights.
Then, for an extra challenge, there is the Gamma stage, which includes even more challenging workouts. This is a cardio-heavy program that demands a decent amount of jumping, so those with bad knees should consider following the modifier.
FOCUS T25 is less intense than INSANITY, and it can help you get ready for the more advanced programs. Try it here.
Morning Meltdown 100
Type: Cardio
Time: 20-30 minutes/day for 100 days
Equipment: Dumbbells, Resistance Loops, Strength Slides
Trainer: Jericho McMatthews
Every morning, Jericho will lead you through a 20- to 30-minute workout that can help you rev up your metabolism, burn fat all day, and build your best body ever.
She created the program with tons of variety to help keep your body progressing. The workouts are short enough to easily fit into your day and the schedule is flexible, so you can stay on track even when life gets in the way.
Music plays a huge role in the program. For the first time in Beachbody history, each workout is set to a heart-pumping BPM (that’s beats per minute) playlist mixed by a live DJ. Try it here.
LIIFT4
Type: Muscle-building
Time: 30-40 minutes/4 days a week for 60 days
Equipment: Dumbbells or Resistance Loops
Trainer: Joel Freeman
LIIFT4 is an efficient, no-nonsense workout that combines weightlifting and calorie-burning high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
The moves are based on classic lifting techniques that let you isolate, stabilize, and focus each rep on the muscle group you’re working. Every workout ends with a quick core routine for a full-body build and burn that leaves you shredded.
Because you’re only working out 4 days a week, Joel makes every second count during each workout; they’re structured to keep you lifting on pace and constantly moving, while timed rest periods allow you to catch your breath before attacking each set.
Three recovery days a week give muscles time to repair so you can push harder, lift heavier, and get better results faster.
There are two phases for maximum results: For the first 6 weeks, you’ll build, cut, and define your body, followed by 2 weeks to burn through calories and fat, revealing your ultimate physique.
80 Day Obsession
Type: Cardio/muscle-building
Time: 30-60 minutes/day for 80 days
Equipment: Dumbbells, Resistance Loops, Strength Slides
Trainer: Autumn Calabrese
80 Day Obsession will help you build a strong, lean body, including a firm butt and sculpted abs. Six different workout themes (booty, legs, cardio, etc.) are repeated every week, but Autumn changes how you do them each time, so no two workouts are ever the same.
As a result, you’ll never watch the same video twice, and you’ll see the cast members improve and progress right along with you as you do the program.
To optimize your results, you’ll need to follow the Timed-Nutrition Eating Plan, which uses Portion-Control Containers to make healthy eating easy.
Autumn will show you how to time your meals and snacks to help maximize your energy, fat loss, workout recovery, and muscle growth. If you don’t feel ready for this program, try A Little Obsessed – a five-day precursor with slightly easier workouts that will help prepare you for the longer, more intense 80 Day Obsession program. Try it here.
CORE DE FORCE
Type: Cardio
Time: 15-45 minutes/day for 30 days

The moves for each video are broken down in the “Learn It and Work It” companion videos so you can get a better command of the moves before putting them all together in one workout.
Six days a week, this Beachbody workout program is great for intermediate or advanced levels, but beginners can follow the modifier for a less-intense workout. Try it here.

There are two 90-day workout schedules to choose from—one that focuses on gaining muscle mass, and the other that focuses on getting lean and ripped.

Unlike more straight-forward bodybuilding programs, The Master’s Hammer and Chisel focuses on improving endurance, power, agility, strength, balance, and range of motion.

TurboFire is a step up from Chalene’s first Beachbody workout program, Turbo Jam, and is more well-rounded to yield better results. Try it here.

INSANITY: MAX 30
Type: Cardio
Time: 30 minutes/day for 60 days

The goal of INSANITY: MAX 30 is to push yourself as hard as you can. Record your “MAX OUT” time for each workout, and then try to go at least one second more!
This program is just as intense as the original INSANITY Beachbody workouts, but has been condensed into shorter, 30-minute spans, and also offers a modifier who demonstrates the easier, lower-impact version of every move.
And this being a cardio-heavy program that doesn’t require equipment, you can do it anywhere. If you’ve just finished Focus T25, and want to stick with Shaun T through shorter workouts, this is a great program to choose. Try it here.
