Kayla Itsines is #goals. She's a self-made fitness sensation, champion of body
positivity and co-founder of the largest online female workout platform. Forbes
once named her social media's Top Fitness Influencer, a title befitting of someone
whose fandom totals over 10 million followers and whose health and wellness empire
includes sold-out stadium tours, best-selling eBooks and an even more popular app.
She's one of Australia's most talked about figures, and celebrities such as Katherine
Heigl have used her Bikini Body Guide to get themselves back into shape.
But with the oversaturation of Internet fitness professionals, it can be easy to
write Itsines off as just another Alo Yoga-wearing, supplement-selling face on our
Instagram feeds. However, despite her growing brand and enormous fan base,
Itsines has stayed true to herself during her unintentional rise to fame.
