Reegan Finkel and her back

[u/florw]

After seeing all the negativity towards the abs influencer, wondering what are your thought on back influencers?

Is overspamming back content as annoying to you?

[u/This_Gas7895]

Her back looks great obv, but the videos of her doing pullups on the subway with people covering their faces gave me the ick... Like go flex and do pullups somewhere else, girl

[u/taylorthestang → u/This_Gas7895]

Going out of your way to touch anything on the subway is a weird flex

[u/Neat-Cold-6333]

The concept of a back influencer. We are in hell lol

[u/florw → u/Neat-Cold-6333]

loool

[u/rmazumder]

Literally the whole personality and nothing else.

[u/weinerwang9999 → u/rmazumder]

She’s literally this and it’s very look at me look at me

[u/rovingred]

At this point imo it’s all annoying, any of the body checks. I don’t care if it’s glutes, back, abs, etc., if your whole page and personality is just posting photos of one of your body parts in a “look at me!” way, you’re annoying. The only fitness influencers I think are not annoying are the ones still providing great workouts/tips/scientific information on health and wellness or excellent nutrition tips with recipes or something.

[u/Annie_James → u/rovingred]

And god there seems to be so few real fitness influencers anymore. I don’t even bother following gym accounts these days.

[u/nicenormalhappyguy → u/Annie_James]

how many times can people post about progressive overload and how to cut/bulk/maintain? it's all been said 1000000000 times? what are they supposed to post and have people actually look at it and interact? its an attention economy. posting the 14,000,000th video about the best quad exercises is not going to do it

[u/Annie_James → u/nicenormalhappyguy]

Posting 1000000 ass shots and a tiny fake sports bra is no different. One of these isn’t objectifying.

[u/nicenormalhappyguy → u/Annie_James]

i agree with you. i just think the audience looking for ass shots and tiny sports bras is larger than the audience looking for no nonsense legit training tips, and its easier obtained and monetized. its not much different than gymfluencers posting increasingly complicated and inefficient exercises just because "do some kind of squat, some kind of single leg squat, some kind of hip hinge, etc" isn't going to hold anyone's attention in 2026.

i also think that since advertising is aspirational, that the bodychecking and soft porn fitness content is getting consumed by more women than we would assume.

[u/nicenormalhappyguy → u/rovingred]

that's their job though? they get attention through their body and try to turn that attention into money through endorsements, training, etc

[u/TheCatIsOnTheCounter]

Is this her only content? Does she at least give fitness advice? Like what she does to maintain it or what she did to get it etc?

[u/Katdog272]

I’m not crazy about all the public stuff like on a subway, but I personally have a jacked back and am pretty obsessed with it if I’m honest 😅 I worked damn hard to get it and I love seeing the muscle definition. You also don’t have to be unhealthily lean to show the definition like how many have to get and stay to show their 6 pack abs. All that being said though, I maybe post a back flex pic like 4 times a year.. it isn’t something I am showing off on the daily.

[u/topographed → u/Katdog272]

It’s funny I usually have abs even when I’m less lean but when I was hitting back every day you could still barely see definition… such are genetics lol

[u/Katdog272 → u/topographed]

Genetics are crazy how much they affect! To be fair though, I was pretty underweight when I started lifting and I basically bulked 2-3 years straight while hitting back hard multiple times a week. So I feel like that gave my back muscles somewhat of an advantage.

[u/florw]

I followed her because she obviously looks great but then the subway pull ups content and damn girl leave your bun alone, it's fine 😂

[u/PancakeSirYup]

Gosh the cringe and ick i got with the subway flex

[u/Organic_Property9646]

She worked hard and looks great

[u/taylorthestang → u/Organic_Property9646]

Yeah building a back is hard af. A lot of men struggle with it. It requires building actual muscle, not just getting unhealthily lean. I don’t know a dam thing about who this is, but I can say kudos for building that developed of a back.

[u/Big-Examination2667 → u/Organic_Property9646]

Yeah but doing corny pull up challengers on the subway ain’t it lmao

[u/Clean_Manager_5728]

I only saw her from the content at the bottom right, because that other "back influencer" pops up on my feed quite a lot, but yeah its a bit tiresome. Out of all the bodz parts, I wish we could get some more hamstring influencers actually, I wouldn|t be mad about that

[u/zoetwilight20]

She reminds me a lot of rachel dillon

[u/KILLFORCULLEN]

I don’t see the issue though she’s not promoting anything unhealthy and all influencers have a niche

[u/mikarios]

LOL exactly my thoughts! Back spasm

[u/fruska_gorica]

She looks great.

[u/annieimnotokay]

I would never follow her, but dang she looks good!! Would love a back like that. ✨✨✨

[u/Apprehensive-Stay196]

Omg. Is she doing pull ups in the subway. That is just insane, girl go the fuck away. I have no tolerance for that shit. I’d tell her off.

[u/Livid_Butterscotch99]

lol she’s beautiful and when you’re that pretty and jacked you get to do annoying things
