Spending most of my time working from home over the last few years had made it difficult for me to maintain my fitness goals.
Just recently, one of my friends recommended getting Beachbody On Demand and starting with “A Little Obsessed” as a beginner workout program.
I purchased a 3-month BOD Membership and was looking forward to getting back in shape.
For the best experience, I wanted to watch the workout program on the big screen of my Samsung Smart TV.
I asked my friend about how to add Beachbody on Demand on my Smart TV and also scrolled through their official website’s support section for help.
I found the best way to stream Beachbody content on my Smart TV, and track real-time workout progress on the app. Here’s how:
To add Beachbody to your Smart TV, couple it with a streaming device such as Roku, Google Chromecast, or Amazon Fire TV Stick. Connect it to your TV via an HDMI cable. Go to the apps/channels section and install Beachbody to start streaming.
Use Beachbody Via Streaming Devices on Smart TV

The best way to use Beachbody on your Smart TV is to couple it with a compatible streaming device.
The most popular streaming devices that support Beachbody On Demand include Roku, Amazon Fire TV Stick, and Google Chromecast.
If you’ve already got one of these streaming devices available at home, you just need to add the Beachbody channel to it.
You can watch Beachbody with a Roku streaming device and a subscription to Directv stream.
However, if you don’t own a streaming device yet, I’d highly recommend investing a few extra dollars to get one.
The main reason is that streaming devices offer the best possible streaming experience on your Smart TV.
Streaming devices come with a user-friendly interface, wide streaming platform options (Netflix, Hulu, Prime Video), and the latest software compatible with almost all existing over-the-top platforms.
Based on the streaming device you’re using, the process of adding Beachbody may vary.
Follow these installation guides to add Beachbody On Demand on Roku, Amazon Fire TV Stick, Google Chromecast, and Apple TV.
