Part of getting fit is surrounding yourself with fit people.
You might have already joined a gym, and you might have friends that like to get fit. But how can you make sure that your online socialization helps you get fit as well?
Follow the top 20 fittest people on Twitter! In no particular order, here are my picks for the 20 most physically fit Twitter users.
1. Stefanie Michaels (@Aventuregirl). Adventure Girl is someone who is always traveling, always having adventures, and always doing sports related things. She is set to compete in the 35th annual Iditarod, a dog sled race over 1,150 miles of the most extreme terrain in the world. Fit? Check.
2. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (@kaj33). One of the greatest basketball players of all time, more points than anyone in NBA history, and inventor of the skyhook.
Had a 20-year career - he knows a thing or three about physical fitness.
3. Lance Armstrong (@lancearmstrong). Lance is one of the greatest stories - he beat cancer and then won the Tour de France for 7 years in a row. Maybe the most physically fit person - ever.
4. Tony Robbins (@tonyrobbins). Tony Robbins advocate's a morning "Power Hour" of physical fitness and other mental exercises in his "Get the Edge" program.
Also promotes physical fitness, nutrition, and fat loss programs.
5. Serena Williams (@Serenajwilliams). The tennis star won the U.S. Open at age 17 and hasn't let up since. Also enjoys surfing and skateboarding.
6. Demi Moore (@mrskutcher). Demi Moore is notorious for spending hours in the gym and "killing herself" with her workouts, by her own admission. Action star of GI Jane and Charlie's Angels. She is supremely fit and works tirelessly to make sure she stays that way.
7. Tony Hawk (@tonyhawk). His name is synonymous with skateboarding. He is a living legend. First skater to land "a 900"; 2 1/2 revolutions in the air.
8. Dwight Howard (@DwightHoward). Dwight Howard has a vertical leap like a pogo-stick on steroids (he's not on steroids).
The NBA All-Star donned a Superman cape during the slam dunk contest and didn't disappoint.
9. Whole Foods Market (@wholefoods). Whole Foods Market is a place for whole and organic foods. They are the definition of health and fitness.
10. Ashton Kutcher (@AplusK). Most likely swam until he began to grow gills for his movie "The Guardian". Married to Demi. He must be fit.
11. Martha Stewart (@MarthaStewart). Oops, wrong list. Martha belongs on the most fiscally fit Twitters list.
12. NFL (@NFL). The NFL is made up of 32 teams. Each team is allowed a maximum of 53 players. That's 1,696 professional athletes. That's one fit Twitterer.
13. Shaquille O'Neal (@The_Real_Shaq). Shaq aka The Diesel aka Shaq Fu aka Superman aka The Big Baryshnikov was host of "Shaq's Big Challenge" a project to help America get in shape. He devoted himself to staying in great shape and helping others do the same.
14. Men's Fitness (@mens_fitness ). From their Twitter account: "How the best man wins. Improve your strength, endurance, health and style with expert tips."
15. Oprah Winfrey (@oprah). Oprah? Yes, Oprah. Even though she continues her public battles with weight and fitness, if you catch her at the top of her roller coaster weight loss ride she will be in amazing shape.
16. Doug Ulman (@livestrongCEO). The CEO of the Livestrong Company was diagnosed with cancer three times then returned to the soccer field and helped Brown University to three Ivy League Championships in four years. He participated in 10 marathons, including a 100-mile marathon in the Himalayan Mountains. Wow.
17. John Mayer (@johncmayer). John Mayer is a musician who apparently is into Krav Maga; an intense Israeli martial art. His trainer, James Sherman, says that Mayer "likes to pull up his shirt and show off his abs - they are rock-hard".
18. Ellen DeGeneres (@theellenshow). Spotted giving pro golfer Kevin Hooks "pointers" at the Justin Timberlake and Shriners Hospitals for Children Open (a Pro-Am PGA charity event).
The comedian occasionally has fitness or health segments on her show.
19. Britney Spears (@britneyspears). Britney's gone through many different issues, including getting in shape, having children, and dealing with emotional and mental breakdowns. Currently featured on covers of tabloids because she got her rock star body back.
20. Women's Health Magazine (@WomensHealthMag). "Women's Health is your ultimate guide to looking and feeling great. We'll bring you the latest in health, fitness, sex, beauty and more!"
