Keep track of the latest in diet and fitness Twitter trends and opinions with this weekly post. Not only will AOL Health's Twitter alias Healthpop and That's_Fit ask fitness-related questions and share the best responses with you, we'll scour the Twittersphere for the latest buzz on everything from good eats to exercise routines gone bad.

In the midst of the Olympics season, we see plenty of U.S. athletes bring home medals for their fitness abilities, like Seth Wescott and Hannah Kearney. It's easy to find out how these snowboarders and skiers stay fit as they dish ideas for staying in shape. So, does watching our country succeed in the winter games and discuss their fitness routines inspire you to workout? We asked our Olympic-watching Tweeters which winter sports motivate them to get moving.
