'Fitspiration' is an online trend designed to inspire viewers towards a healthier lifestyle by promoting exercise and healthy food. This study provides a content analysis of fitspiration imagery on the social networking site Instagram. A set of 600 images were coded for body type, activity, objectification and textual elements. Results showed that the majority of images of women contained only one body type: thin and toned. In addition, most images contained objectifying elements. Accordingly, while fitspiration images may be inspirational for viewers, they also contain a number of elements likely to have negative effects on the viewer's body image.
“健身激励”是一种在线潮流,旨在通过推广运动和健康食品来激励观众追求更健康的生活方式。本研究对社交网站 Instagram 上的“健身激励”图片进行了内容分析。对 600 张图片的身体类型、活动、物化和文字元素进行了编码。结果表明,大多数女性图片只包含一种体型:瘦且有肌肉。此外,大多数图片都包含了物化元素。因此,虽然“健身激励”图片可能会激励观众,但它们也包含了一些可能对观众的身体形象产生负面影响的元素。
