Demi Bagby is an American social media star, bodybuilder, dancer, fitness model, and professional athlete, best known for her Instagram channel “demibagby” which has garnered a following of more than 2 million. She came to prominence around 2014, after she suffered a devastating injury while cheerleading, and broke her lower back. Following her 3-month recovery with high chances of never walking again, Demi became inspired by CrossFit athletes she watched from her bed. As soon as she was able to, Demi started working out carefully, and ultimately began preparing for the CrossFit Games athlete competition in 2015. She proved her worth and managed to land the 517th Overall Rank (By Country) in the division of “Teenage Girls (14-15).”
After she saw her the potential and recognized her internal drive to succeed, Demi began training for the next year’s competition. Her hard work paid off immensely, and she ranked 23rd Worldwide and 21st By Country at the Reebok CrossFit Games in 2016. The appearance brought her in front of a worldwide audience that was amazed at her physical feats despite being only 15, and her audience on social media blossomed as a result. To use the attention, Demi began documenting her workouts and started inspiring and motivating other people through collaborations with other athletes, which she also used as a way to challenge herself in other areas of athleticism and bodybuilding. Demi Bagby has also amassed a large fanbase online with more than 4 million fans on TikTok, 200k followers on Facebook, and more than 100k subscribers on YouTube.

Personal Trainer
Demi Bagby grew up playing soccer and always had an active life during her time at school as part of the cheerleading team. However, after a very tough period following a broken lower back during cheerleading in early 2014, she was met with a grim diagnosis of being in the wheelchair for a long period of time, or even worse, forever. While in her hospital bed and later at home, resting, she became inspired by CrossFit athletes such as Kristi Eramo and Frank Medrano. She vowed to herself that if she could only get back on her feet again, she wouldn’t take that opportunity for granted.
Demi went through a recovery process that took about 3 months, after which she was able to walk again, and started to exercise slowly. One of her 1st social media posts that went viral showed her doing a muscle-up on the bar, only 3 days after she began practicing calisthenics. This was proof enough of her immense upper body strength and athleticism. On February 22, 2016, she also managed to do a 138 kg or 304.5 lb clean-and-jerk.
She doesn’t follow a typical gym split routine and often switches things up on a weekly basis. At the gym, Demi does CrossFit or powerlifting related exercises such as farmer‘s walk, squats, deadlifts, bench press, plank, push-ups, pull-up, knee-to-chest for abs, L-sit, and kettlebell swings. She is also very good at handstands, which she can also do on a treadmill even, as well as splits and a human flag, which requires immense upper body strength.
Besides her regular workout routine, Demi also incorporates skateboarding, free climbing, rock climbing, parkour, gymnastics, swimming, dancing, elements of cheerleading, yoga, as well as unique forms of acrobatics, such as acro-yoga. She has also expressed her opinion that flips are a very underrated form of cardio and that people think they only look good. In reality, she found them to be an efficient exercise.
For her fans that don’t have access to equipment, Demi has created a Tire Workout that she follows herself when she needs something simple.
Tire Workout
She can do 5 sets of 10 reps of each exercise and advises everyone to start slow and find a healthy middle as to not overtrain and cause an injury.
- Step Up Knee Drive – Start with a foot on an elevated surface, and do 10 reps for each leg which counts as 1 set
- High Knees To Lateral Jumps – 4 steps run in place, then jump into the tire, and repeat that 10 times
- Alternating Extension Push-Ups – 10 reps each arm (20 in total is 1 set)
- High Jumps To Burpee – Jump in and out of the tire, then do the burpee outside
- Incline Mountain Climbers – 10 reps each leg (20 in total)
- Elevated Foot Taps – Similar to high knees, only now the foot is brought to the elevated surface, with 10 reps per leg
