by Emily Arata

You don't need a tiny, toned body in order to hit the gym. Any body will do.

An inspirational video from Sport England shows women of every shape pursuing the activities that make them feel alive and active.

You might sweat and wheeze, but it's always worth it in the end.

The campaign, "This Girl Can," aims to show women fitness has never been about losing weight, but rather about staying healthy and present.

It's empowering to push your body, achieve new goals and pick up an endorphin boost while you're at it.

Set to the unstoppable beat of Missy Elliott's "Get Ur Freak On," the clip will make you want to pound the pavement.
