Celebs flexing for the gym and the ‘gram

Nadia Nakai

Okay well, we’re sure we’re not the only ones who didn’t get our Dezemba bodies right in time and it’s basically December already which doesn’t really give us enough time to get everything EXACTLY right and tight, but at least we can try.

According to Oprah and other learned individuals and life gurus, vision boards are a great way to visualise and focus on one’s goals. If you constantly see it, your mind will start believing it, and so to help us (And probably you too, be honest) get it together for the Insta snaps, we’ve put together a collection of our favourite Zaleb beauties rocking work out gear, looking pumped and ready to hit the gym and/or the club.

Because biker shorts are an aesthetic thing now and we reserved the right to wear sweats and takkies in the streets for swag purposes a few years ago, we can’t say for sure whether they actually went to the gym in these outfits, but we CAN be sure that whether you dress for the gym or actually GO to the gym, looking good is always the end goal.
