I’m a self-confessed Instagram addict.

There I said it.

I can lose up to an hour (I know, I know) just scrolling through endless inspiring feeds of amazing women, fitness regimes, exotic beaches, perfected tans and enviable workout gear. It may seem superficial in the outset, but Instagram can be a great source of motivation and new ideas.

Whenever I’m feeling a little stale, especially in the lunch and dinner front, I head to my favorite fitness accounts to pick up some new food ideas. It enables us to have an insight into the diets and workouts for some seriously toned men and women!
