Busy Philipps is one of those celebrities who is always keeping it 100% real – even when it comes to her fitness routine. The Cougar Town star enjoys using Instagram stories to share her workouts and she recently discussed her workouts with People Magazine.

One thing that makes Philipps’ workout clips different from the ones we usually see online is their sheer, unfiltered honesty. She’s fully embracing all the good and the bad parts of demanding sweat sessions in order to inspire people to truly commit to their fitness goals.

“I feel like modeling behavior for younger generations is so important, and that’s part of the reason why I post my workouts on the [Instagram] stories,” explained Philipps.

Philipps believes that this “modeling behavior” starts at home, since she didn’t feel athletic for the longest time because her family didn’t encourage physical activity and exercise. She’s trying to set a better example for her daughters by making exercise a part of her daily routine.

“My girls have a different experience because their dad [husband Marc Silverstein] goes to spin class always every day, they know that. I do my workout every morning, they know that,” said Philipps while chatting with People Magazine.
