Find Your Fit: Instagram Accounts You Need To Be Following

 

Finding the motivation to stay in shape can be difficult, but if you surround yourself with the right reminders it can be a lot more encouraging.  It’s not news that we live in a world where social media reigns, and our to-do lists revolve around an ever-changing newsfeed. Your girlfriends just checked into that new wine bar down the street, so you make time to meet up with them for some pinot later. Your old college roommate just posted about her new Lululemon yoga pants, so you schedule some time to pick up your own pair on your way home from work. However, if you just followed the best of the best fitness gurus, you might find yourself making the time to do what they do instead of finding other distractions!
