Lena Dunham shares fitspirational pics as she joins fitness-guru Tracy Anderson’s celebrity followers
LENA Dunham has become an unlikely source of fitspiration on social media as she reveals how she finally found an exercise regimen that works for her.
OUTSPOKEN, eloquent and talented are all words we’d use to describe Girls creator Lena Dunham, but she’s also become an unlikely source of fitspiration on social media as she joins forces with trainer to the stars Tracey Anderson.
Sharing the trials and tribulations she faces making time for her daily workout she’s become the poster-girl for practising mental as well as physical health.
After publicly documenting her struggle with anxiety on her hit HBO show, Dunham took to Acro-yoga to improve her health and wellbeing.
It seems to be working a treat as she’s clearly unable to get the smile off her face during workouts.
Dunham claims: “It has helped with my anxiety in ways I never dreamed possible”.
“To those struggling with anxiety, OCD, depression: I know it’s mad annoying when people tell you to exercise, and it took me about 16 medicated years to listen.”
“It ain’t about the a**, it’s about the brain. Thank you @tracyandersonmethod for showing me the light.”
Tracy Anderson trains A-listers such as Kim Kardashian, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez and Gwyneth Paltrow, who credits the fitness guru for giving her the butt of a 22-year-old stripper.
“As @jackantonoff says, it’s good to try new things. Thank you for not dropping me.”
“Late to @tracyandersonmethod & forgot my workout clothes so had to snag a size large bra and size small pants (wrong in myriad ways). But do we soldier on? Yes, yes we do because we want to be a strong & happy lady #largebrasmallpantscantlose”.
Aside from making us want to delve into the world of acro-yoga Lena-style, Dunham’s Instagram account is a haven for fresh, insightful but most of all funny snaps from the writer, director and actor.
“Saturday night look, Grease 2 inspired. Covert image for posterity taken in the powder room of the lovely @alananewhouse! My belly button has been through a lot and I like to let her breathe.”
“In 30 minutes it will be 3 whole years since this straight up CREATURE crept into my life. I feel lucky every day. Even now, as he noisily dubsmashes while I try and sleep. Thank you Jack x”.
“It’s past midnight and we just discovered dubsmash Lord save and protect us #yououghtaknow”
“It’s amazing you can still love something so much when it’s thrown up on everything that matters to you.”
“My great grandmother Mimi told my mother ‘a Jewish girl should never marry a gentile. He’ll only end up at the corner bar.’ But marry him she did and they made us and we are a family.”
“OK I’m not in the habit of breaking promises to you people so here I am in the thrilling negligee @theellenshow gave me. As offered, “a sultry pose.” Love you Ellen. And I love you all, which is why I am sorry for this #selfie #allalone”.
“Don’t worry, just chilling with my dog wearing these matching shirts with his face all over them. Thank you @clashist, dream makers.”
“Have a very Beyoncé new year! #2015 #kale.”
