Are Your Social Posts a Good Representation of Who You Are?

If social media platforms were to remove all types of engagement, would the quality of your posts change? We are all in the fitness industry (or at least some of you are a regular in the gym and care about your health and fitness), and while we like to show off our hard work in the gym, are our social media posts really a good representation of who we are? I want you to think about this for a minute. I know with certainty that this article is going to upset a lot of people and I’m more than ok with that because if this upsets you, it was probably directed at you to read.

Why are you posting the things you post?

There are several reasons why people are posting the things they do on social media – especially Instagram. They primarily either do it for the likes or for the value it brings. While I can’t dismiss the men out there in social media la-la land, women are probably some of the worst offenders of what I’m about to bring up and therefore are who I’m going to focus on.

Ladies in the fitness industry, I want to ask you a serious question. Posting pictures of your tits and ass… what are you looking to get in return? Are you an attention whore who is looking for attention? Maybe you’re insecure and feel as though your body is the only way for you to gain the attention you are looking for? Either way, let me ask you one more thing. What type of person are you trying to engage with when you post those types of things? I mean seriously – think about it for a second. You aren’t posting them to look at your own boobs, right? I mean you know they are there and you see them every day. Do you think your social media posts are adding value by helping people change their behaviors and live a healthier life? Probably not if your Instagram and Tik Tok page is a tit and ass show.

The only people you are engaging with are the perverts who only engage with you because they sit behind their computer screen and jerk off to your photos. They don’t give two turds about you as a person, you’re simply a sexual release to them. So, think about that the next time you want to post a sexy selfie in your disgusting bathroom while your husband is at work. Do you want real engagement with like-minded individuals where you can bring each other value or are you fine with 10,000 likes from people beating their meat over your images?



Here’s the one thing many of you might not be considering. If all you do is post sexy photos, the second you disappear from social media or stop posting, you are replaced with someone else posting similar photos. You should focus on being a good person because it’s the right thing to do. The fact of the matter is, you’re easily replaceable because you don’t bring true value or something that would make someone want to follow you because they have a connection (other than a fantasy that one day they’ll marry you – because of your body). To most, you’re a pair of tits with a face (if they even look at your face at all).
