10 health & fitness Instagram accounts to follow for fresh food ideas, workouts and wellness tips
Instead of making a list of bullsh*t New Years resolutions that will fall by the waist side come January 10th - let's just do one right here, right now.
Take out your phone, go onto your Instagram and unfollow anyone you have on there who makes you feel like sh*t. It doesn't matter who they are, or why you thought of them, but the fact that you did means it's affecting your mental health enough to know about it.
See. There. Isn't a digital detox so much better and easier than a real one?
Now, when it comes to following people in 2019, make wiser choices for the sake of your sanity. Choose those who inspire you, make you want to be a better person and achieve your goals.
And seeing as many of us start our New Year journey wanting to be healthier and fitter people, here are a few good 'grams to start you off...
@amandabisk
We get it, sometimes you just need to follow someone with abs to remind you that pizza is not a breakfast food. Former Olympic athlete, Amanda Bisk, makes for an ideal candidate, without the bullsh*t. No 'skinny teas' or 'detox diets', her feed is just full off her grueling workouts, yoga poses and wellness tips, set to the background of Australia's coastline. Bliss.
@thedelicious
If you really struggle to find healthy food appealing, Sarah's shots will alter your appetite. Her colourful feed is full of fruits and vegetables transformed into tasty dinners, snacks and even DIY popsicles. Eating the rainbow is easy with this inspo in your feed.
@emilyskyefit
Emily deserves every single one of her 2.4 million followers. Her realistic (albeit mega fit) body proves that nobody what genes you're born with, you can have abs if you work f*cking hard to get them.
@hannahbronfman
If you'd rather not have fitness and workouts rammed down your throat, Hannah provides the perfect medium. Half her feed is healthy food and workouts, but the other half is full of beauty, fashion and her part-time life as a DJ.
@niomismart
Less sweat, more eating smart (get it?) and self-care. Naomi's feed takes a more hollistic approach to wellness and acts as a daily remind to look after number one.
@jshealth
Good food galore! Jessica is a nutrition expert who makes all your favourite foods using healthier ingredients. Think pancakes, brownies and choc chip cookies. And if you don't worry if you don't have a sweet tooth, there's plenty of savoury options too.
@kayla_itsines
GLAMOUR columnist and all-around boss girl Kayla Itsines built her fitness following through 28-minute workouts. Yep, she gets THAT bod from just 28 minutes.
@biggalyoga
Think you're too big to workout? Pffft. Valerie will put you to shame with her by the book yoga poses and kickass attitude.
@meowmeix
If you need smarter choices spelt out for you, Amanda's educational comparisons can give you better food habits for life. Because if you're going to eat a chocolate bar, you want to make sure it's the right chocolate bar.
@carlyrowena
Rather lift weights than go for a run? Carly is your gal. She deadlifts like a legend and is all about that muscle build. Plus, she does it all with a smile.
