Personal Training

I'm Tara Farquhar, a NASM certified personal trainer and nutrition coach with four years of experience who specializes in women's 40+ strength and power training. 


Like many, I began working out because I wanted to look good and lose weight. I wish I could say it was for less vain reasons, but I don't want to be both vain and a liar. However, this reasoning began to take a back seat once I realized there were so many other benefits to working out and eating well: more energy, more happiness, and more confidence.

It just makes me feel really, really good, and, yes, it helps me look better than I would without it!


Women, especially, need strength and power training for both obvious and less discussed reasons. Everyone knows that exercise is needed for a healthy body, but, specifically for women, strength training can help create a strong sense of self. Sometimes women are taught, both overtly and covertly, that we're weak or incapable, especially in the areas of strength and power. So, what's the use in developing it?

We're taught that focusing on anything but our appearances is a waste of time, but pushing myself and others physically has taught me otherwise. The negative messages are garbage, and we should turn our backs to them and turn instead toward investing in our own inner and outer strength and power because the rewards are innumerable.


Sigh, and, yes, you'll look better! (I swear this is the only thing you people care about. I love you.) Let's get practical.

Did your mom or grandma have a girdle? Muscles are Mother Nature's girdles! Don't know what a girdle is? How about shapewear? Muscles do so much more than some Kim Kardashian B.S. because you never take them off, so they make you look better naked. No shapewear can do that!


You will literally be stronger and add value and years to your life when you gain strength and power. No, everything will not turn perfect, but your strong body will weather the storms of life more gracefully for yourself and others. You'll have more energy to soak up the sunny days as well.

You will look hot in your hot pants, too, okay?


How do I know this? Because these are the results I've and others have had through my specialized, individualized, and researched program.
