    I mean, yeah. Anyone who posts their daily, uninteresting activities to social media are probably narcissists.

    If you’re accomplishing something, doing something you’re proud of, or sharing a special experience, that’s a different motivation entirely. But “Here’s a daily shot of my greasy muscles while I do a few reps” is narcissism. “I’m really proud of my six months of progress” or “am I doing this exercise correctly?” is not narcissism.

    Not necessarily. I made a new years resolution to post to social media every time I completed a workout. Should I break my resolution because some folks don’t like it? Its important to me and im going to be so proud once I make my first post.

      Honest question: if your goal is to complete workouts (good on you!), what does posting it to the world gain you?
