“Our society has created an unnecessary pressure on young people. There are too many unrealistic expectations on both appearance and behavior. Unfortunately, these requirements often form a basis for bullying among the younger generations.”

“When I started training, the initiative was based on the hope of reaching other people’s acceptance. As time passed, I realized that everyone else’s opinions should not mean nearly that much. People can easily tell you how sweet and beautiful you are, but if you do not feel good about yourself without their comments, it’s completely irrelevant.”

Biography

Bullying in Primary School

Celie Josefine Lindblad was bullied throughout her early schooling years, which led her to develop low self-esteem.

As the years passed, Celie’s problems got worse and worse. As the bullying continued, she started to avoid most social interactions and conversations.

It came to a point where Celie wouldn’t leave her house, just to avoid the embarrassment and mocking of some of her schoolmates.

Finding the Relief in Fitness

Fortunately, Celie managed to push past this dark period in her life, thanks to fitness. In a search for a way to improve her confidence, Celie began training in the gym.

She used weight lifting as a way to channel all of her negative energy and to grow into a stronger person – both physically and mentally.

Throughout the months, Celie’s plans were gradually coming to fruition. She looked better than ever, and as a result, her self-confidence also improved.

Over the years, Celie’s physique and self-esteem kept improving, until she became a completely new person. By the time she was 19, Celie’s old-self was long gone. At this point, she felt and looked better than ever.

Using Social Media to Inspire Others

In order to do this, she opened her social media accounts where she shared motivational advice and quotes about fitness and life.

While she didn’t reach many people at first, this number slowly kept growing as the months went by. Eventually, she gathered a small community of fans who listened to her advice.

By 2018, Celie became an internet and fitness influencer. The number of people she inspires daily keeps on rising, and so does her success and recognition in the fitness industry.

Favorite Exercises

Celie’s favorite movements are sumo squats, Bulgarian split squats, hip thrusts, and walking lunges. After incorporating these exercises into her routine, Celie has noticed a major improvement in her muscle tone.

However, Celie won’t always do the same exercises. Instead, she likes to switch things up. Sometimes, she’ll replace these exercises with cables, machines, or other isolation movements which target a specific area of her body.

“I usually include machines in my workout,  depending on which muscle group I focus on that day. For example, if I train my legs, I use significantly fewer machines than if I exercise my back.”
