Pale fitness inspiration?

This might sound really stupid, but I like to look at Pinterest and Instagram for thinspiration/fitspiration (whatever you wanna call it) when I’m feeling demotivated and need a reminder for what I want to achieve. But overwhelmingly the fitness grammers and models I see are all gorgeously tan and dark brown and I on the other hand am a very pale and freckly redhead and will never be able to achieve that. But when I look up “pale fitspo” or something, it’s all pictures of sad, anorexic girls who are very sickly-looking and obviously I don’t want that either lol.
So does anyone follow any fitness models or whatever on IG that are pale or not super tan? It’d just be nice to visualize something more achievable for myself and that could look like me. Sorry if that’s stupid lol

I put pale girls into the search area of pinterest, and some pretty looking girls and make up tutorials came up, but all the sporty looking girls had tans! Freckle faced girls of the world unite!! 🤨1

Darker skin + good lighting shows off musculature better: that's why body builders basically paint themselves dark before competition.
Just because you don't have the same skin tone as someone else, doesn't mean you cannot achieve the same physique5 -
I'm not sure where you started vs. where you're going.. but here are some inspo's I have on my Pinterest ^^'

@khlokins @sardelsa thanks for the suggestion and photos! I appreciate it
@DeadliftsAndSprinkles haha I feel your pain! I never use contour or bronzer like they do because it would look so unnatural on me or just make me look dirty lol
@VUA21 that does make sense! I hadn’t thought about how that might make muscles show up more.
