Ah, the gym selfie. It's like waving a stellar report card, or a totally finished New York Times crossword puzzle in your friend's face -- except it's your body.

These pictures often crowd your Insta feed and cause you to either scoff audibly, or at the very least, feel a wave of secondhand embarrassment.

“Can we please not with these?” I often think to myself as I indulge in a bag of Cool Ranch Doritos.

But motivating to exercise regularly can be like, super hard, you guys. So when you finally do start doing the dang thing, and you begin to see and feel the results of your hard work, it's natural to want to share that success with your hundreds (thousands? Tens of thousands? Handful?) of adoring followers.

But one must simply be aware: It is too easy to cross the line between being humbly proud and being a total tool.#
