Best social media fitness star - Jen Sinkler - 2015 Best of MN

Her online influence is as hefty as the iron she pumps, with tens of thousands of followers. Jen Sinkler, powerlifter and trainer at the Movement Minneapolis, regularly posts jaw-dropping photos and videos of herself and her workout buddies dead lifting, bench pressing and back-squatting with enormous weights. Images of her bulging biceps and juicy quads run counter to the waif-like female aesthetic in our culture. But make no mistake: Sinkler embodies strong and feminine, hoisting barbells while sporting perfect makeup and fashion-forward gear. Her Twitter profile pretty much says it all: "Never, ever without lip gloss." jensinkler.com
