Tamara Podry

I am a passionate and client-focused trainer. I have trained hundreds of clients and have lots of experience with overcoming injuries and chronic pain of all kinds, preparing for and recovering from pregnancy and mastering nutrition. I love to work with people who want to learn how to strength train properly and are willing to be coached. I give 110% in everything I do with every client. I look forward to working with you!

I believe in taking care of our body, treating it well and that fitness, especially strength training is extremely important for our physical, mental and emotional wellbeing.

Our first session will be a thorough assessment where we will discuss your goals, your health history and I’ll observe some movements to establish a baseline and uncover areas of opportunity. Our next few sessions, depending on your original fitness level, will be focused on activating your muscles, and priming you for more extensive work later. These workouts are very important for you feeling great throughout our training. Then, as I see that you are ready for more, we will progressively add to your program, to elicit your desired results. Each session will always begin with a functional warm up, followed by our major movements, then accessory movements, then depending on your fitness level and goals, some cardio and stretching.

My favorite success stories are when clients that I haven’t trained in years, tell me that my training changed their life and that they used the skills they learned with me to create a healthier, more balanced and fit life. But, I have had many success stories of eliminating pain such as a young client that came to me with IT Band syndrome from running. He was a track runner who had just received a scholarship to a great college for running track but was in so much pain he couldn’t run. I was only able to train him for 6 weeks, 3 times a week, because he was leaving for college, but we had him pain free and back to running in that time!
