1. Kayla Itsines, @kayla_itsines
Meet Kayla Itsines, a super-fit Australian female with washboard abs and an affinity for fitness. With more than 5.5 million followers, she created the wildly popular #BBG Program, along with her fiancé, fellow fitness guru @tobi_pearce. Together, they’ve also launched an app called, “Sweat with Kayla.” Some of her most popular posts include a series of before-and-after photos, which show the results of the #BBGP Program and the women who have followed her guides. Additionally, she also posts tons of selfies that show off her long, lean body (as well as pics of her two adorable huskies!).
2. Anna Victoria, @annavictoria
Anna is the creator of The Fit Body Guides, a combination of workout and meal plan. Her very best photos are of elaborate, healthy meals that you can recreate at home or simply drool over. (Chicken lime tacos, anyone?). She’s also a fan of inspirational quotes, and before-and-after photos of women who have used her 12-week training guides (her #fbggirls).
3. Kim Jones, @jones_strength
Kim Jones isn’t about flashy apps or guides, but what she does have is an IFBB Pro Card (so you know she’s legit). The super-fit figure model is all about mobility and injury prevention; her page isn’t just about her journey as an athlete, but about educating with examples of exercises as well. If you are looking for ad-free account with an informational angle (and incredible photos of her lean, mean physique), this chick is for you. She might even inspire you to take up bodybuilding!
4. Raymond Querido, @theonlinecoach and Sonia Querido, @mrs.theonlinecoach
Raymond and Sonia are the ultimate fitness couple — just one look at either of their pages will have you out the door and off to the gym! The insanely fit twosome actually own their own gym in California called The Campus Gym. Both of them are avid If It Fits Your Macro (IIFYM) eaters, posting pictures of their epic meals following huge lifts at the gym. This couple lifts heavy, and they have amazing bodies to show for it. Sonia posts a lot about the balance of being a mom (can you believe Sonia has had two children?), her experiences as a former fitness competitor and how she juggles managing a gym and raising her two children. Raymond, on the other hand, shows off his heavy lifts, while focusing on nutrition, programming, planning and implementing proper form.
