  5. MadFit creates workout routines to popular songs. Maddie Lymburner has hundreds of workouts on her channel plus ones that target body parts, specific no-equipment workouts and quiet apartment-friendly workouts (these workouts are great for anyone with injuries or who just needs low-impact workout options).
  6. The Fitness Marshall brings you choreography to turn your workout into a dance party. Caleb Marshall uses pop music and moves designed to get you sweating. Each video is one song long, but he suggests creating a playlist of two warm-up videos, eight main workout videos, and one cool down video for a complete workout. But there’s also a quick workout playlist or a full workout playlist you can follow.
  7. The Body Coach can be your own personal trainer or for the whole family. The Body Coach (aka Joe Wicks) believes that everyone should be able to work out, no matter their fitness level or budget. The channel has more than 250 videos, including challenges, time-based workouts, and workouts for specific body types. There’s a new HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) workout every week.
  8. Tone It Up transports you to the beach! Tone it Up is run by trainers Karena and Katrina who first started posting workout videos on Youtube over 10 years ago. You’ll find plenty of total body workouts, bodyweight workouts, guided meditations, and more. The videos are on the shorter side, with the newer videos directing you to their app if you want longer videos (right now, the app is free until April 22). If you’re looking for more, you can string a couple of their Youtube workout videos together for a longer workout.
