Benefits of The Workout Selfie:
(1) Tracking Progress – body composition is something that a scale cannot measure, but that a progress picture can depict. Simply taking workout selfies and comparing them side by side will indicate changes in terms of increased muscle mass, decreased fat, and an overall shapely figure that weight training can help provide.
(2) Accountability – workout selfies appear all over the Internet, and are more than a “look at me…I look so good…I have abs” type of statement – for some people anyway. When you get into the habit of regularly taking these photos and posting them to a public forum, you begin feeling an obligation to continue and to keep up your regimen. I’ve found Instagram to be the most supportive, encouraging place to do this; if you don’t want your friends seeing these pictures, I suggest starting a separate fitness account (ie: LaurenLovesToLift – that’s not really mine, just an example)
(3) IT’S FUN – don’t knock it until you try it because it is actually a lot of fun! Recruit your friends, your favorite workout partner, your significant other to jump in for a shot or enjoy all the cool apps that allow you to create photo collages or write text over the pictures. Overall, just enjoy the process!
Love how easy it is to save the images on my phone & refer back to them at the gym 🙂
