A fitness blogger from London, Lauren Tickner promotes in her instagram account on how posture and correct angle help a lot in getting perfect photo. Recently, she went viral when she posted three photos of herself where she took 30 seconds between each photos.
As you see in the first photo, there is a transition of body form when she burst out her stomach out and she quoted it "Her tummy's fat". The second photo, she strikes a gorgeous pose where she let her stomach in and her butts out. Lastly, she just post trim and straight posture where she quoted it "She has no butt."
POSTURE changes EVERYTHING! Posing is SO powerful: what you see of people on social media is NOT how they look 24/7 in real life! ๐๐ผ I know that if I arch my spine and pop my hip, I can make my stomach look flatter & my butt look bigger. Of course, some people DO have big bums & flat stomachs ๐ Similarly, slouching and 'letting go' of my stomach after a big meal makes it appear more bloated: it's just how it is! Tucking your spine will make your butt look flatter: you can literally make your body look SO different, just by standing differently! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ People will always speak negatively about others: it's horrible, but sadly it is just a fact of life. I receive all of these comments ๐๐ผ all the time, but thankfully for the more negative ones, I have thick skin. I used to even say these things to myself ๐ BUT now I have learned that if I see a 'bad' photo of myself, it is OKAY!!!!! It doesn't matter!!! As we see here, angles and posture are eveeeerything! Similarly, IDGAF if other people want to comment mean things, because I have learned to accept my body and love it for what it is. Your body is so incredibly powerful: give it some credit๐๐ผ I also know how to pose to make myself look 'best'. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I don't care how 'overdone' people say these photos are: I think they are SO important. I sometimes still stumble across a photo and think "agh, I wish I looked like that..." BUT, they uploaded that photo for a REASON! They probably took 10000 others and chose that ONE photo. (I know I'm guilty of taking looooads before having ma money shot ✨) PLUS, for all I know, they photoshopped that photo! Take EVERYTHING with a pinch of salt! #StrengthFeed - EDIT: this photo is to prove a point ๐๐ผ - sometimes one may see a photo of themselves and think 'agh, I hate how I look' ...but then you have to remember that you may just be MOVING & caught off guard, so your body isn't looking 'normal'! Yes, I know I am overemphasising each 'pose' ☺️ - P.S, purchase my training/macro-tracking guides at: www.strengthfeed.com

See the difference? Lauren also stated that "Posing is SO powerful: what you see of people on social media is NOT how they look 24/7 in real life!"
Sometimes we envy how other people took gorgeous shots and posted on social media and how horrible we look like when we do the pose. We should try a little harder in finding our perfect angle and posture if we want to capture a perfect instagram photo.
Here's another Tickner's post on instagram where she took two pictures in the same night. She looks really fat on her first picture but when she strikes a pose in second picture, she look stunning!
It's all about the posing and angles! ...If you watch my YouTube videos/know me in person, you'll know that I am WEIRD. And you know what, I'm๐
๐ผnot๐
๐ผ ashamed of it ๐๐ผ๐๐ผ - I absolutely love instagram vs reality posts, because I feel like you really get to know the person behind the Instagram feed so much more! And we also get to see that even the people we look at for motivation don't constantly look 'perfect'. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀ So, here' a few #TicknersTips for ya: •Don't take life too seriously! If you don't find this kinda thing๐๐ผfunny & are going to comment hate on it... CYA LATER ๐๐ผ๐น •There is no such thing as perfection - they always say 'never meet your idols' and I think that's because often, people don't show their true selves. I bloody love to show my true self, because I want you to know that I am just a normal human being just like YOU (ok I'm defo not normal but let's move past that ok lol #Weirdo4Lyf) - I'm a full-time student & I now have a full time job. I'm juggling all this just like many of you are! •Don't be upset if you see an unflattering photo of yourself! We all have 'em! - Here's a secret that I've never really told anyone before: I used to remove ALL tags on photos that I didn't like of myself, and force my friends to take them down. Then, on photos I actually wanted to use, I'd use this random old desktop app and blur out the edges of my skin to make myself look slimmer ๐ - it breaks my heart that I used to feel like I had to do that ๐ ...now I've learned that in order to truly love myself, I must accept my flaws and learn from my mistakes! ๐๐ผ (ps soz for cutting u out again bae @charlotteogdenn) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #StrengthFeed #StrengthFeedGuide - - ๐๐ผPS click the link in my bio & subscribe to my YouTube channel‼️
