3 Fitness Youtube Channels You MUST Follow for Inspiration

By January 5, 2017 No Comments

Let’s face it: YouTube has changed the game. As the world’s second most popular website (bested only by Google), this video sharing platform functions as entertainment, education, and then some. I love it because it’s easy to find your niche–anything from gaming reviews to current news to silly videos of cats on Roombas can be uploaded and viewed for free. Into health and fitness? Yup, there’s plenty of that, too. Thousands, dare I say millions of fitness YouTubers upload free, quality, interesting, and informative content every day for anyone to enjoy. Think of it like free TV channels or health and wellness courses you can audit online. Not sure where to start? I don’t blame you–the choices are endless. May I suggest: sit down with a protein shake after your next workout and do a little surfing for some fitness YouTube channels to find a few you like. If you’re totally overwhelmed by options, try starting with the 3 listed below.

I’ll admit it: I’ve never been a consistent stretcher or warm-upper. But watching videos by a physical therapist and CrossFit icon Dr. Kelly Starrett really gets me motivated.
