5 Fitness Blogs to Keep You Motivated
There’s nothing more disheartening when one missed workout turns into ten. Whether getting started again is your greatest challenge or staying motivated week in, week out, we could all use a little inspiration. That’s why we’ve compiled this list of fitness blogs that will help you stay goal oriented and on task.
Fit Bottomed Girls
First off, this blog has a great name. Second, it offers a light-hearted, real-world approach to fitness for women (and men!). Run by Jennipher Walters, Erin Whitehead, and Kristen Seymour, Fit Bottomed Girls offers workout tips, nutrition advice, and fun stuff like workout music suggestions and humor. If you’re more of a listener than a reader, check out their regular podcast as well.
Fitness On Toast
Looking for a trendy international fitness guru? Look no further than Faya Nilsson, a Swedish personal trainer who lives in London. Her blog Fitness On Toast features a little bit of everything from active travel tips to celebrity interviews to healthy meal ideas. It might make you a little jealous, but her advice is legit!
Lazy Girl Running
Ebook author Laura Fountain has run (pun intended!) this fantastic blog designed to help inspire and motivate more women to run. Though she has now run multiple marathons and ultra marathons, she hasn’t always been a runner. In fact she used to hate it! Her blog details the journey and offers advice for other women just getting into running. Give it a read!
Lifting Makes Me Happy
Mindi started her blog way back when in 2008 as a way to hold herself accountable to working out. Though she isn’t a personal trainer or professional blogger, her website offers a personal account of how exercise has helped her combat depression. The best part? She doesn’t always LOVE working out – just like us. We recommend her blog as an honest, inspirational read… something to motivate you when you just don’t feel like going to the gym.
Nerd Fitness
From a self-professed nerd with a desk job, Nerd Fitness is a fantastic blog for anyone who spends too much time in front of the computer screen. Steve Kamb offers a variety of helpful workout tips as well as help achieve weight loss goals.
