“At the end of the day...self-care is fitness.”
Ever wondered what a 37-year-long health journey looks like? For Tara Allison (@fatgirl.fit), it’s one full of wisdom, self-love, and lots of squats.
Raised in a household with generations of complex body image issues, Tara was taught to feel ashamed of her weight from a young age, and even forced to attend Weight Watchers meetings when she was just 14 years old.
For Tara, this was simply her way of life. And then everything changed.
A form of arthritis brought chronic pain into Tara’s life, and she was faced with a choice. She could either take copious amounts of medication for the rest of her life, or try building muscle to help out her joints and relieve her pain. She chose the latter.
Now known as the “internet queen of the deadlifts” to her 123,000 fans on TikTok, Tara says she still takes herself by surprise. What took Tara about 35 years to realize is that, despite all the times she stood on a scale in those public WW meetings, she never lacked self confidence. What she lacked was self-love. And once she found it, a whole new world of health opened before her eyes.
In this episode, Tara shares it all: how she let go of her very complicated history with food, why strength training can be for everyone, and how you can turn self-hate into self-love.
