KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Building an instagram brand — A brand on Instagram should be very representative of who you are as a person. In order to build a successful brand, you have to deeply understand who you are, who you are talking to, what kind of content does your audience want, and how to create that content.
- Let fitness evolve — No matter what your reason was for getting into fitness, allow it to grow. Often times someone will start in fitness as a competitor and quit once competition ends. Allow yourself to train for fun with your friends or set new goals outside of competition, like training to be able to play with your kids.
- Setting goals is an important aspect of keeping fitness interesting — Goals do not necessarily have to be centered around losing weight or hitting a 300 lb clean. A goal can be to train with your best friends 3 days per week. These goals should also allow for continuous feedback. For example, a PR clean goal can only be measured once you hit the PR, where a training with friends goal is met each and every time you train with friends.
- Your instagram should reflect your real life — Make your Instagram account an authentic representation of who you are as a person. Those who know you best should be able to look at your instagram page and be able to recognize you completely.
- Becoming a social media influencer is not just about building the ability to influence people on social media — It is about being genuine and having your brand show up in a way, where people want to change the way they think or act based on you.
“It’s fun to keep the promises you make to yourself because it builds confidence.” — Amanda Bucci
