5 Reasons Why Every 'Fit Girl' Should Follow Heidi Somers on Instagram

First off, you're probably wondering what a "fit girl" is. Well before I tell you what it is, let me tell you what it's not. A "fit girl" is not someone that has their entire fitness journey mapped out. It's not someone who has a perfect body and never has cheat days. Essentially, a "fit girl" is any girl who is actively trying to better herself mentally, physically, or emotionally by taking time to go to the gym.

If you are anything like me, routinely going to the gym is tough, and you definitely need some extra motivation. So, I did what a lot of girls do, and went straight to Instagram. When I found Heidi's page, at first I wasn't sure this was the motivation I was looking for. But as I continued to follow her page, I knew that this was the right page for me.

So here are a few reasons why I think every "fit girl" should follow Heidi Somer's.

Don't let her handle fool you.

Her handle is "@buffbunny". My first thought was, "Wait, I don't wanna be buff, I just want motivation for the gym". Well, her handle was very quickly less scary the more I scrolled through her page. Heidi is only about 5 feet tall, pretty long blonde hair, cute as can be, and toned as heck. The words "bulky", "masculine", and "too much" are certainly not words that come to mind.

She seems super relatable.

What I love about Heidi's page, is that when she posts workouts, it's not just her breezing through a workout that would, seriously, put me in the hospital. She films before, during, and after and she'll straight up tell you, "Wow, that was hard today" or, "I really had to push through that last set". It's a comforting thing to know even someone who is in incredible shape struggles too.

It's not always about the gym.

Another reason why I haven't found a page nearly as much as I like Heidi's. Some people make it seem like they go to the gym all day long. And if they aren't at the gym, then they're planning their next workout. Heidi lets you in to more than just her fitness routine.

Two words: GIRL. POWER.

Heidi is all about the power of female. She's living proof of it. Everything she has and does, she has done for herself. If that's not serious motivation, I don't know what is.

Her workouts, duh.

Her workouts are so amazing. There isn't a single workout that she puts out that I think, "Oh wow, I could never do that". She makes it easy to follow any exercise she does. She also makes it clear where each exercise is really going to work, where you should feel the strain when you do it, and how you could modify anything if you're not comfortable at first.

Since I started following Heidi, I've been excited to go to the gym and try all the new workouts she's put on her page. Not only have I been excited to go to the gym, I've also tried really hard to incorporate all of the healthy lifestyle tips she gives into mine. Following Heidi has given me a new found sense of motivation and I think she could do the same for any "fit girl".

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
