Watch Every Little Step | Prime Video
The OG that kicked off a franchise of dance battles— everybody trying to outdo each other. Put it on when nobody’s in the house, and dance like nobody’s watching.
Step Up - Apple TV
Cheryl Strayed’s account of hiking the Pacific Crest Trail alone— it isn’t about fitness—it’s about motion as survival. Watching her put one foot in front of the other through grief, pain, and blisters somehow made me want to lace up and walk off my ...
Wild
Guts, flipping, choreography, and the pure ATHLETICISM it takes to do this— inspirational and just mind blowing.
Watch Cheer | Netflix Official Site
This gorgeous movie will make you ask “what the hell am I doing on this couch?! I need to get out and live!”
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty
Hilarious, snarky, thoroughly entertaining, and some *very* motivating training/workout montages!
Stick It - Apple TV
This movie is full beast mode as the first woman in Navy SEAL training. It’s sweaty, brutal, and made me want to do a push-up (or at least angrily clean something). If you need a “get off your butt and prove something” moment, this is it.

A rowing team trains their way to the Olympics, using teamwork, grit, and rhythm. I took rowing classes for months after this and enjoyed the heck out of them!
Watch The Boys in The Boat | Prime Video
Two surfers follow summer and surf beaches all over the globe—It’s a cheeky travel doc with open air, saltwater, gorgeous ocean cinematography, and so much adventure. I watch it every single summer.
The Endless Summer II 1994 Full Surfing Documentary 4K
Pure musical adrenaline. It doesn’t even matter if you can’t sing or dance— you *feel* like part of this energetic cast. And if you do wanna learn the dances, there are so many how-tos on TikTok!
The Greatest Showman
BIIIIIIIIG content warnings on this one. BUT if you aren’t easily scared or icked out, this follows a group of badass, athletic women on an extreme cave expedition—but things go horribly wrong. It’s sweaty, suspenseful, and full of crawling, climbing...
The Descent - Apple TV
Nearly every scene in this movie is a chase, escape, or foot-powered trek through breathtaking wilderness—and the score makes you feel like you should be sprinting in slow motion with an agenda. Daniel Day-Lewis definitely worked out for this one —I...
The Last of the Mohicans
Linda Hamilton’s muscles made history in this movie. When it came out, we had never seen a female action hero like this. She is a shredded WARRIOR. Between her chin-ups and tactical sprints, it’s impossible not to feel straight up inspired.
Terminator 2: Judgment Day - Watch Full Movie on Paramount Plus
High school girl dumps competing in pageants for brutal roller derby—and boy is it fun. Elbows fly, there’s at least one food fight, and by the end, you’ll be Googling “roller derby near me”
