There’s so much information on the internet that it can be a challenge to determine what comes from a reputable source. So, I wanted to highlight my absolute favorite Instagram pages (aside from Prototype and related accounts, of course!) that provide excellent information with regards to fitness and nutrition.

 

Favorite Nutrition Instagram: @caitsplate

Run by a non-diet Registered Dietitian (Caitlyn), this account features a plethora of meal ideas. Caitlyn also has a blog, where she shares her recipes. Everything on her page looks absolutely delicious, and I have loved every single one of her recipes that I’ve made thus far! As an added bonus, she shares tips and tricks for parents, as her toddler and newborn often make appearances in her stories.

Favorite Fitness Instagram: @achievefitnessboston

This account is run by a husband and wife team (Jason and Lauren) that has been in the industry for over a decade. They believe in positivity and inclusivity – and it shows! Their page oozes happiness, which makes it inviting, but they also provide excellent information. Often you’ll see tips on how to scale movements, improve your lifts, or build an at-home workout. Jason and Lauren know their stuff! And to make it more fun, their toddler and dog make frequent appearances.

Favorite CrossFit Instagram: @whiteboard_daily

A unique take on coaching cues, this account features whiteboard stick figures drawn by Karl, a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer who has a degree in Kinesiology. He breaks down common CrossFit moves into simplistic drawings, which are accompanied by cues to help improve your form. If you’ve heard me say “don’t spill your fishbowl” during med ball clean, this account is where it comes from!

These are my top three, but they most certainly are not the only educational Instagrams out there. You’ll be able to find many wonderful sources of information to improve your fitness and nutrition. Just make sure you’re vetting the sources to make sure you are getting accurate and reliable information – more to come on that next week!
