Considering Beachbody On Demand (Now called BODi) is the at-home workout industry leader offering memberships for as low as $10/month, it’s amazing that there are free Beachbody workouts available.
You can get Beachbody for free and try before you buy, or maybe you want to add a few free, high-quality Beachbody videos to your cross-training regimen.
In this article, we’ll show you how to get Beachbody videos for free and share a list of Beachbody sample workouts.
free bodi workouts (formerly beachbody)
First, BODi did a huge rebrand in 2023. Beachbody and Beachbody On Demand are now called BODi. Other than the name, nothing huge has changed.
Because everyone is confused (and I want to help everyone) I still use the names interchangeably in this article.
Next, to be clear, you can’t get full-access to Beachbody for free. Well, unless you provide your credit card and do the 14-Day Free Trial. Also, no, Beachbody is not free with amazon prime (or any streaming platform).
However, there are select workouts that you can get on BODi for free. In this article, we’ll help you do that.
Included are 24 free Beachbody workout videos (including free Shaun T workouts), 14 Beachbody kids workouts, and 1 guided meditation.
Are the workouts any good?
Not all workouts are created equal. For your food, a deficiency of 200 calories per day equals 20 pounds lost in a year. For your workouts, the same is true.
An additional 200 calories burned per day from a challenging workout also add up to 20 pounds lost in a year.
Fortunately, these free workouts are the industries best.
In one experiment we did, two Beachbody BOD workouts burned significantly more calories than other traditional workouts like the exercise bike and treadmill.
In the graph below, these are 20-minute workouts (“the burn”) followed by 60 minutes of rest (“the afterburn”).
Not all workouts are created equal. The more calories you burn, the higher your metabolism becomes, and the more weight you lose.
But, you’re here to get fast access to free Beachbody workouts online, so we’ll start by explaining how to access them.
For details on the above cardio experiment, click here. Or, if it’s possible that you’ll invest in Beachbody On Demand (now called BODi), make sure you read our below review to make sure it’s the best platform for you.
But First, Here Are Our Free Workout Programs
While access to free Beachbody workouts is great, there is one problem. A single workout is not a workout plan. And if you don’t have a plan, plan to fail.
These free BODi workouts are great for test-driving workout programs and trainers, but to get access to the full plan you need to pay. Fortunately, we offer the following complete workout programs for free. Enjoy!
- The 12-Week Dumbbell Workout Plan
- Our 12-Week Gym Program for Beginners
- 8-Week Bodyweight Workout Plan
- The 12-Week Resistance Band Training Program
Each program includes pictures and video of each exercise, along with a printable calendar and weight/rep tracking sheet. In our humble opinion, these are the best free programs available on the internet.
Now, back to the free BODi workouts.
How To Get Free Beachbody Videos Online
There are three options to access the free online Beachbody workouts.
The following are listed in order of easiest to slightly more difficult to access.
Option #1. Stream Beachbody workouts on Vimeo
This is a really simple option and links to free Beachbody On Demand workouts through Vimeo are listed below.
The only downside is, there are fewer free workouts on Vimeo compared to the next option.
Option #2. Create a free account for limited access to Beachbody On Demand
Can you get BODi for free? No, you can’t. However, with this option you will have access to all the Beachbody sample workouts.
The BODi cost by membership and by country is outlined in this article.
Is a free account really free? Actually, yes it is. You don’t even need to provide credit card information.
Creating a free account for Beachbody On Demand is the best option since you have access to more free workouts. Also, if you do intend to buy a membership eventually, it’s beneficial to try the Beachbody On Demand app and platform.
The process is simple and you’ll only need to enter the below information.
If you don’t live in one of the listed countries, it doesn’t matter. For the free Beachbody workouts you can just select one of them.
However, if you decide to buy BODi (or start your free 14-day trial), you (or someone you know) must have a billing address in Canada, France, United States, or United Kingdom.
Lastly, please enter our BODi Partner Information: Alexandra Davis, hello@ryanandalex.com, partner ID 335656.
Sometimes this section will populate automatically, and other times you need to manually enter this information. Please email us if you have issues.
This means that we are your BODi partners (formerly Team Beachbody coach) and receive a small commission (no extra cost to you). We’d love to earn that commission by supporting you along your journey.
As coaches, we promise that we will never send you emails, spam, or product pitches. But, we are always on top of our emails or posts in our BODgroup if you need to reach out with questions.
If you’re already assigned to a BODi partner but you’d rather have us, you can request a coach change.
Option #3. Start a 14-Day Free Trial for unlimited access to Beachbody Workouts
This is the best option if you want to have unlimited access to BODi workouts. However, it’s listed last since you need to provide credit card information.
After the free trial, you will be charged for a 3-Month Membership. If you want to start a free trial, here’s how.
Keep in mind that the 36-Month Membership ($120/year) is far more affordable than the 3-Month Membership ($356/year).
Therefore, if you do the trial, make sure you cancel before you’re charged or upgrade your membership to a 36-Month Membership. Some people decide to skip the trial and just sign up for the 36-Month Membership.

So, there you go, you have access to all of the free Beachbody workouts currently available online.
While you’re at it, here are the top 10 shakes that are comparable to Shakeology. Yes, Shakeology is a premium product, but there are other great shakes out there that are far less expensive.
After working out with Beachbody for a combined 20 years, we’ve done nearly all of the Beachbody programs available, and have heard feedback on all of them from our team.
While the free workouts are amazing, there are two problems.
1. An individual workout is not a workout plan.
You can’t just repeat the same workouts over and over or you’ll plateau, get bored, or injure yourself.
Additionally, you can’t pick and chose individual workouts to create your own plan. Why? Because your brain is wired to do workouts you like. Therefore, they’re workouts that you’re good at or are easy rather than workouts that will get you the best results.
To achieve the best results working out at home, follow the full Beachbody program calendars. They’re designed by professional trainers and a team of sports scientists who know what you need to get results.
2. There are no sample workouts for many of the best BOD programs.
The two workout programs and trainers that put Beachbody on the map are P90X by Tony Horton and Insanity by Shaun T. But, since these programs are from back in the DVD days, there are no sample workouts available to stream online.
As of now, you can’t sample all the Beachbody programs. Unfortunately, workouts from many of the best and most proven programs are not included in this article.
However, you can get unlimited access to BODi through a 14-day free trial.
For more support and accountability on your journey, feel free to join our BODgroup.

30-Day Weight Loss Challenge
As engineers with a combined twelve years of health coaching experience, we needed to create a data-driven way for our clients to sustain weight loss.
Too many weight loss challenges involve a long list of what you can, cannot, and need to do every day. We’ve reduced the overwhelm and only require you to track five numbers a day — calories, steps, fiber, sleep, and waistline.
You’ll track five numbers daily to give you the highest return for sustainable weight loss. As a bonus, we’ll share our Weight Loss Bundle, which includes strategies, progress tracking tools, and additional weight loss plans.
