Abstract
Este estudio analiza el profesorado de Educación Física (EF) que adopta el rol de influencer en la red social Instagram. Mediante un estudio de casos descriptivo, se han analizado durante siete meses los perfiles de tres influencers españoles (159 post y 73 stories) con un análisis temático. El rol de influencer de EF es producto de un complejo engranaje en el que la difusión de su conocimiento y su identidad como personas expertas se desarrolla a través de estrategias de micro-celebridad y el manejo de las funcionalidades de la propia plataforma orientadas a potenciar su visibilidad y, en última instancia, monetizar su contenido. Se concluye con las tensiones que existen para la EF en torno a este fenómeno dentro del contexto educativo neoliberal y la necesidad de que la formación del profesorado se adapte a esta nueva realidad educativa.
