Celebrities frequently serve as fitness inspirations, and Melissa Viviane Jefferson, widely known as Lizzo, is no exception. Demonstrating her dedication to fitness, the rapper recently took to Instagram to share stories and a video attempting the split—a challenging position with legs extended in opposite directions, forming a straight line—with her trainer.
In the video caption, Lizzo expressed her amazement at her progress, stating, “I’ve never been close to the splits in my life! One session with @wadebryant_ and I’m on my way!” The post garnered widespread attention, with fans applauding her motivation and finding inspiration to try splits themselves.
Trainer Wade Bryant also chimed in on social media, noting, “This was a vibe! Weight really has nothing to do with training. @lizzobeeating came ready to work! And I promise y’all she worked and screamed a few times…” He further shared the backstory of their collaboration, highlighting Lizzo’s commitment and readiness to put in the effort.
Bryant emphasized the importance of consistency, hunger, and readiness to work, recounting how it all began with Lizzo commenting on his TikTok and expressing her desire to be stretched. He concluded with a note about the significance of consistent effort, content creation, and humility in the journey towards fitness goals.
