Posts from fitness and performance creators on OpenSponsorship typically run $510 to $4,900, the lowest band of any category on the platform. Paired with 13,266 profiles, that makes this the most budget-accessible way to run creator campaigns at scale, with thousands of niche and local trainers pricing toward the lower end. Every profile lists its own rates, so you can compare and shortlist before you message or contract.
Instagram leads heavily with 12,834 creators posting workout clips, form demos, and progress content, followed by TikTok at 2,207 for short workout and technique videos and YouTube at 651 for full programs and routines. Demand spikes in January around resolution season and again in spring ahead of summer, so brands often plan launches a few weeks before those windows.
Activewear, supplements and protein, equipment and home-gym brands, fitness apps and wearables, performance nutrition, and recovery products are the core sponsors. Common formats are workout demos, transformation and progress content, gear reviews, training programs, affiliate codes, and ongoing ambassador deals. This is the training and performance lane specifically, which is a distinct fit from the nutrition, mental-health, and holistic focus of the broader wellness category.
The United States accounts for 9,362 of the roster, with the United Kingdom (502) and Canada (386) as the strongest secondary markets. You can filter by country, state, or city, which matters for gyms, studios, and regional activewear launches that need a local trainer whose audience actually trains nearby.
The average following is about 164K, but the roster skews heavily toward smaller creators. The niche tier holds 6,828 profiles and the local tier another 4,166, so nearly 11,000 of the 13,266 creators sit in the high-engagement micro range. Above that, 292 are national, 283 international, and 104 are global names with audiences in the millions.
Create a profile, connect your social accounts, and set your rates. Brands searching the fitness and performance category can find you directly and send proposals without an agent in between. A complete profile with current metrics, clear pricing, and a defined focus, whether that's strength, running, CrossFit, or a specific sport's conditioning, tends to attract more relevant approaches.
