Ranking method

CA Influence Indexā„¢ (CII): how we grade US fitness influencers

CII is a market-relative score from 0 to 99. It combines local audience fit, engagement against creators of the same size, average Reel views, and estimated real-audience share. The creators above are ordered by this score, not by follower count.

25%of the score

Audience fit

How much of the audience sits in the American market. Full marks once 80% of it is there.

30%of the score

Engagement

Likes and comments against creators of the same size here. Full marks at 3x that median.

30%of the score

View power

Average Reel views against follower count. Full marks at twice the following.

15%of the score

Audience quality

Share of followers reading as real people. Full marks at 90%.

Engagement is scored against the American median for a creator’s own size: around 0.8% under 50K followers, around 0.6% above 250K. Both are rounded, because the study measures them by search rather than by census.

  • A+90-99
  • A80-89
  • B65-79
  • C50-64
  • Dunder 50

The score is capped at 99 so it never implies certainty. Read the full CA Influence Index methodology. The benchmark is national, not global. Here is the market behind it.

Market benchmark

The American Instagram market behind this ranking

The American Instagram study covers 927,095 accounts with at least 10K followers. The 25 selected profiles are compared with that study below.

Read the United States Creator Economy Report, the measurement this chart is scored against.

How the selected 25 compare with the American Instagram market

Pink = the 25 US fitness influencers above.

Grey = every American Instagram account we measure with at least 10,000 followers, all 927,095 of them.

Each bar is the share above the threshold, so a longer pink bar means the influencers above reach it more often than the market does.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Answers on how this page differs from our female fitness list, what the index weighs and who was removed.

01How is this different from your US female fitness page?

That page ranks American women who name fitness in their own bio. This one covers the rest of the same field: fourteen candidates for this page are already published there, and rather than print them twice we excluded them. Both pages are drawn from the same accounts that clear the screen.

02How were these 25 chosen?

We started from the 927,095 US-based Instagram accounts we track and kept those between 20,000 and 1,000,000 followers that name fitness in their own bio. Those accounts then had to hold at least half their audience in the United States while clearing our engagement, audience quality, Reel view and recency floors. Four organisations and duplicates were removed, and the 25 published are ranked by the CA Influence Index.

03Why do so many of them carry discount codes?

Seventeen of the 25 do, and it is the most useful thing on the page. A code means the account already sells to its audience and that a brand has already paid to be there. It also tells you which categories are taken before you write the brief.

04Why are the scores lower than on other pages?

Because this field is crowded and its Reel reach is modest: the top account scores 79, where a city page or a niche with less competition reaches the nineties. Every account here still clears a 50 percent American audience, 1.5 percent engagement and a 70 percent real audience, which is what the score is measured on.

05Who was left out, and why?

An apparel company, a trademarked gym brand, a joint account run by two professional footballers, and one creator already published on our Miami page. Organisations are not people a brand can brief.

06How current is this?

Every account posted within 30 days of the Sep 6, 2026 snapshot. Follower counts, engagement, Reel views and audience shares are read at that date and move week to week at this size, so re-check before a campaign.
