Love it or hate, Instagram is a huge social media platform and is the go-to space for most people when they want to post about their latest fitness achievement.

For many though, Instagram is a source of inspiration.

Whilst one of the core principles of Fit for Everywhere is that oiled-up fitness influencers should be taken with a grain of salt, they also have their place.

They’ve worked hard to achieve their following and their physiques.

And that hard work can serve as inspiration and, in turn, motivation for others.

With this in mind I’ve lined up the 5 best bodyweight training accounts you should consider following on Instagram.

These men and women should help inspire you to get moving, when you’re seeking a motivation boost.

Six of the Top Bodyweight Fitness Accounts to Follow on Instagram

1. KAISA KERANEN

Kaisa is a former athletics competitor, and she does a great job of showcasing innovative workout time and time again. She’s super-resourceful and will use everything from pillows to soup cans as training equipment.

She is also big on Q&As and discussion topics – great for filling spare 5 minutes.

2. GIDEON AKANDE

Gideon, a former Golden Gloves champion is all about versatile training techniques. His workouts are high energy, fun, and effective. Give one of his workouts a go and you might find you’re totally hooked!

3. DYLAN WERNER

If you’re looking to improve your overall mobility, this one’s for you. His gravity-defying moves will inspire you to get practicing those yoga moves. He’s probably not one you’ll be following along with anytime soon (his moves are literally mind-blowing), but his stability, flexibility and core strength is something to behold.

4. MEGHAN CALLAWAY

Meghan is serious about functional strength and mobility. Whilst she often makes use of some simple gym equipment, she is also an expert in resourceful bodyweight movements that can be done just about anywhere.

Follow Meghan for some home-workout inspiration, challenges and good ole-fashioned grit.

5. CURTIS WILLIAMS

An ex-NFL player, Curtis continues to inspire others with his functional bodyweight workouts. He’s serious about high-intensity bodyweight exercises and, just like Fit for Everywhere, he is adamant that you don’t need a gym membership get in shape.

Curtis generally doesn’t provide full workout routines, but you can rustle up your own circuit using of his posts. Alternatively, learn how to create your own bodyweight training programs here.

6. KIRA STOKES

Kira is all about the workouts. Just scroll through her posts to quickly find a workout you can do pretty much anywhere. She’s particularly good at giving clear instruction through the notes for her posts. Which is always helpful!

Final word

The achievements and commitment of these fitness influencers is impressive. Just scrolling through their posts few a few swipes of the thumb brings oodles of sweat-inducing inspiration.

Of course, inspiration will only get you so far, and following along with generic Instagram workouts is neither that practical nor specific to you.

Nothing can rival the results you can get from tailoring your bodyweight workouts to meet your needs, aspirations and overall fitness goals.
