Elizabeth has over 11,000 followers on alone and shares plenty of photos as well as videos of her workouts.
Her bio reads: “There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”
Dawson married ex-wife Carolin - a former model turned marketing manager - back in 2011.
