Amanda Lee is a Canadian fitness model, Instagram celebrity and personal trainer. She’s inspired millions of followers on social media to begin working out, and is known for her well-rounded figure.
Working in LA has allowed Amanda to attract attention from some of the worlds largest magazines. However, this attention wasn’t always so easy to find, and she believes her social media fame is what made the mainstream media take notice.
In just a few years, Amanda built a career for herself in the fitness industry, and despite her admitted shyness, she’s become a household name and built her own brand.
Amanda was born in 1986 in Canada. As the second oldest of five children, she had a fun upbringing and enjoyed seeing her mother work hard as a personal trainer and fitness instructor.
For many years, this knowledge of the fitness world didn’t inspire Amanda to follow her mothers path. It was only after feeling unhappy with her physique in high school, that she saw working out as a way to build confidence.
She says that prior to her interest in fitness, she was very shy, and was “scrawny and hated it” weighing only 98 pounds. After her mother introduced her to the weight room at their local gym, Amanda instantly loved working out, and felt more confident in her body.
Amanda went on to study modern dance at college, and the years spent dancing ensured her cardiovascular fitness levels were at a high standard. However, she still believed that her body could look better. This inspired her to begin working out seriously with weights.
It was then, that her mother became a driving force in her career. During college she motivated her to stay on top of her workouts, her mother also began to work with Amanda as her photographer for social media work.
