9 Workouts That Will Actually Give You a Victoria's Secret Model Body

Reasons to watch the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show: the beach waves, the outfits, and, of course, their amazing bodies!

What makes the Angels so inspirational is how curvy and muscular they all are. The models have chiseled abs, tones legs, and the type of butt that can only come from tons of squats. While they were genetically blessed, the women who walk in this show work out for months leading up the highly televised event. Just follow their Instagram accounts to see just how often they get those toned booties into the gym.

This year, we got to interview nine of the gorgeous models backstage before the 2016 Victoria's Secret Fashion Show to find out exactly how they got into shape. We learned that Dogpound in NYC is the hot new boutique gym, Pilates is still a favored class, and investing in a qualified trainer is never a bad thing.

"I think probably SLT, even though I hate every effing minute of it. You just get out of it and you feel so tight and elevated. I really love it." — Sara Sampaio

"I love Pilates. I do Pilates probably more than any other workout, and it’s just great because it really lengthens and strengthens the muscles without bulking too much. And you don’t, like, die, you know? It’s not like you leave and you’re dead. You feel kind of good and stretched out. I go in New York to this place called Sal Anthony’s Movement Salon." — Devon Windsor

"I’ve always been really into weight training and resistance training, so I like to do a lot of squats. That’s like my go-to workout for a nice butt. I work with a trainer. I like to go to Dogpound in New York." — Jasmine Tookes

"Planks, burpees, and sit-ups. Because you really need to work out your abs before the show, and you don’t have a choice. You just get used to that, and then after all this pain, you’re like, 'oh my god, I feel good.'" — Ming Xi

"I have a trainer and I like working out with him. [I do] like a hard cardio, kind of just like working different muscles in the body. I also really enjoy boxing, but I haven’t been doing it as much as I used to." — Rachel Hilbert

"I’ve been training with trainers at Dogpound. I love their workout, because they’ve added in weights into my training, which I really enjoy. I like feeling really strong, so basically anything that includes weights and resistance bands and just conditions. But not much cardio for me. I’m kind of small naturally, so I kind of want to bulk up a little bit. I want to add on the muscle." — Martha Hunt
