Fitness Youtube Motivators

Whilst I like to think I’m a pretty motivational person I do however, not have it floating around 24/7 – unfortunately. I’m no different than everybody else. 

My motivation comes from a only a few things really: Instagram, influencers, blog posts or YouTube videos. Right now though my main source of motivation comes from fitness YouTubers. And quite frankly, I’m obsessed.

Beforehand, I never made enough time to watch YouTube videos. Sure, I knew about them but I didn’t quite understand the hype of watching somebody else’s life and what they get up to. How interesting can it be? Oh how I was so wrong.

So right now I have a routine of coming home, cooking dinner, eating dinner, doing blog posts/admin work, showering and then settling down to watch a few YouTube videos whilst I stretch. I don’t know why, but I just can’t break the habit – fitness YouTube video’s are addicting. End of.

Personally, what I love about these fitness vloggers is that they’ve all come from the same platform of nothing and working themselves up. Basically, they’re just like me – trying to make something out of this whole blogging thing whilst influencing and inspiring others through their different social media platforms. It just goes to show that anything is possible – with a little bit of hard work (ok, a lot) and determination.

These girls haven’t been handed anything to them on a plate – they’ve gone out there and worked their butt off and whilst doing this they’re bringing us along on their journey – through the best and worst bits. For that, I respect and admire them.

So with that said, here are a few of my favourite fitness Youtuber’s who motivate and inspire me daily.

Nikki Blackketter

I’m obsessed with Nikki. Absolutely. Obsessed. She’s raw, she’s gorgeous, she’s motivational and she’s an open book. In fact, sometimes watching her is like watching an episode of Gossip Girl – you always wanna see more. Yes, I’m shamefully obsessed with GG right now. Either way Nikki provides you with the backstage scenes of what it’s like being a Gymshark Athlete, working for herself, what her workouts look like and just the general footage of her life. Either way – you can’t not like Nikki Blacketter.

Elle Darby

Fashion
Beauty

Elle is probably one of the most recent YouTuber’s i’ve started watching recently. She covers a little bit more than fitness, including beauty and fashion into her vlogs but personally, I don’t mind that – in fact, I love seeing her amazing make-up skills (damn girl, that highlighter)! I also really admire how honest she is about her attitude to fitness and what people think about her.

Lauren Tickner

Student life

Now this girl has got some drive in her! If you want frequent, helpful and informative videos then Lauren is your girl. She’s probably one of the most informative fitness Youtuber’s I watch and I love how she backs up all of her research! She provides videos for the whole fitness platform including ‘what I eat in a day’, fitness tips, Q&A’s, backstage scenes etc…

Whitney Simmons

Types of videos

Humour

Haul’s
Beauty

Man, has this girl got personality. I’ll admit, when I watched one of Whitney’s videos for the first time I was taken back by how crazzyyyy this girl is – but trust me, you soon learn to love it! I love Whitney purely for all her amazing ‘Get fit with Whit’ videos. They leave me SORE for days! For me, they’re a great inspiration for workout ideas and I love the fact she’s not all about the booty – you get the full package from your calves to your shoulders.

Zanna Van Dijk

Types of videos

Workouts

Q&A’s
Challenges

Travel
Favourite food spots

You guys probably already know how much of a fan I am of Zanna’s. Purely because of how much she works her damn ass off. She’s living proof that you can really get what you want when you put your mind to it! She’s come from not knowing what to do in life to being a successful fitness blogger and an ambassador and trainer for ADIDAS – say whatttt?! Overall, I just love Zanna (and her videos) for her approach to fitness, health and life. 

Ashley Noreca

Types of videos

Workouts
Everyday life
Q&A’s
Challenges
Real talk
Family life

Ashley is like my own personal ray of sunshines. I’ve never watched a Youtubber who is so motivating and genuinely excited for life. Not to mention a bomb in the gym – honestly, just look at her body. But really, I love Ashley for her general approach to life. Sometimes you just need some positive energy and inspiration and Ashley is just the one for that.

Jazmine Garcia

Types of videos

Workouts

Q&A’s

Fitness tips

I just love this gal. I love her humour, I love her attitude and I love her honest approach to health and fitness. Plus, her dog… so much fluff, so much cuteness! I haven’t followed Jazmine since the very beginning of her journey but from these past few months I’ve been obsessed with all of her videos. Not only does she provide K I L L E R booty workouts (and others) but she also keeps you updated with her fitness, provides food videos of what she eats in a day and sometimes talks in depth about her approach to her current fitness schedule.

So next time your on YouTube give these girls a search! What do you seek motivation from? Let me know… Im always looking for more inspiration!
