Strong is the new skinny, and it's time to fuel your workouts with some K-pop. We've already got some workout playlists for you if you're headed to the gym or out for a run. But if you want a totally K-pop focused workout, or want to do the same routines that your favorite stars are doing, we've got some ideas for you.

Strength Training like SISTAR's Soyou

This chick is strong. Soyou has talked a lot about how for her, strength training keeps her strong and healthy more than cardio exercise does. Cameras have followed her and her trainer to the gym, where she works out every day with a series of dead lifts, free weight exercises and kettle ball moves that work her entire body. This method of training requires equipment and maybe the help of a professional (if you don't have experience lifting) but that investment has sure paid off for Soyou.

Fun Kpop Workout Routine!! Videos on YouTube

This is a great series of videos for K-pop fans that get bored quickly with traditional exercise. The half hour workouts integrate plyo moves with cardio-friendly choreography and dance moves. K-pop hits are blasting the whole time, and you don't need any equipment. The videos might not be too challenging for exercise buffs, but beginners or anyone looking for a fun way to sweat a little while listening to K-pop should check it out.

5:3:2 Workout like Girls Generation

Girls Generation made this workout famous a few years back as the exercise that makes their legs strong and toned. 5:3:2 refers to the ratio that occurs in the leg, with the thigh being the thickest, strongest part, three being a less thick but still solid calf, and two being the thinnest part of the leg. The workout includes light kicks while jogging, high knee exercises, and jumps with high fives. The constant movement keeps the heart moving, and it might seem easy on the first round after a few times through this turns into a killer lower body cardio workout. It's also designed to work best with a partner, so grab a buddy, hit the Girls Generation playlist, and work those legs like Girls Generation does.

Martial Arts Training like EXO

EXO didn't exactly take their martial arts class too seriously, but it's a fun, intense, and empowering way to get fit. More than any other single workout, martial arts focuses on several aspects of exercise, including mental stamina, flexibility, balance, strength, timing, and quickness. Local martial arts classes can also be a great way to meet new people, but YouTube is also full of fun martial arts workouts if you want a quick sweat in your own home.

Exercise Ball like T-ara's Hyomin

Hyomin has Tweeted pictures of her and her exercise ball to fans before, saying its her preferred method of getting in shape. Turns out, there's a lot more you can do with these things than just bounce around (or fall off) them. They're especially helpful for core and ab workouts. If you're going to invest in one piece of equipment to have around the house, this is a good one. That's because unlike weights (that you might think are too light once your fitness levels increase), there are plenty of exercises to do with exercise balls for all levels of training.

Pole Dance Workout like Brown Eyed Girls' GaIn

Allright, so maybe "great workout!" isn't the first place your mind goes when you think pole dancing. But getting your body to shimmy and balance on a thin pole takes incredible core strength. Since it's low-impact, it's also great for toning and tightening muscles rather than making them large and in charge (if that's the look you're going for.) Added leg workout if you can manage this in heels like Gain.
