We heard that boxing and barre were top choices among the likes of Gigi Hadid, and had a go at working out like the best of the Victoria's Secret bunch.

00:00So we all know how hard the Victoria's Secret Angels train for the show. They
00:04put in the work and they have some grueling sessions ahead of walking that
00:08famous runway. We know that Adrienne Lehmann loves boxing, she really champions
00:13the sport and Martha Hunt is obsessed with bar. So we thought we'd have a taster
00:20of both of those sessions and see if we're up for the challenge.
00:28Boxing is a great workout because number one, calorific burn, you burn lots of
00:33calories. If you're learning to punch correctly, that means you are conditioning
00:37your lower body.
00:44So if you punch in that manner, you're gonna condition. If you do it with your legs squatted as well,
00:50you're gonna be conditioning your legs even more. So if you do that for the better part
00:54of that one, maybe that's some serious conditioning going on.
00:58Obviously it's become trendy. I only took one model I would imagine, a Victoria's Secret model
01:04to start, saying how great and how much they benefit you from it. Before you know it,
01:09everybody's into it. I mean I train a couple of models as well and they love it.
01:13Bar is such a great workout because it's creative, it's super challenging and especially the Victoria's
01:21Secret Angels love it so much because if you look at them they all have that super lean body
01:26and this is what Bar creates. It creates long lean muscles. The reason behind that is the
01:32isometric moves, which are the small moves that you do combined with the eccentric movements.
01:37That's a long range move so it breaks down muscle fibres and builds strength creating that long lean
01:42look of the body. But it's 360 degrees of a workout. There's not an area of the body that you
01:48miss out.
01:49We also teach you to have good technique when you're doing ab crunches. You're scooping the abs out
01:55so that really helps develop like a flat set of abs rather than bulging them out.
02:02We have so much respect for the Victoria's Secret models because after two taster sessions we were
02:08totally wiped. I was so sore the next day I could barely move. I do not know how these girls
02:13do it
02:14day in and day out. It's amazing and it's no wonder that they're classed as athletes as well as models.
