About

Tara L. Caden (TLC) is a lover…she loves God, her family and friends, animals, health and fitness, food, art, nature, and making a difference in people’s lives. Tara pours her heart and soul into everything she does. Tara is a lifelong athlete who started training in the gym at the age of 14. She enjoys the thrill of competition and challenging herself, and thus, has played several sports throughout her life. Beach volleyball, cycling, and being a gym rat are her favorites. Tara has always been intrigued by the human body and became a personal trainer and nutrition coach in 1996. Tara’s passion for health and fitness is contagious; she offers compassion, encouragement and motivation that ignites the beast in everyone, and makes training fun. Tara lives a healthy, fit lifestyle all year round and loves to teach people how to do the same, so she now offers lifestyle coaching. She believes in getting healthy from the inside out, by simply feeding your body healthy ingredients and moving it in ways that give you joy. In 2005, she began competing in triathlons, duathlons, half marathons, mudruns, cycling and many 5K and 10K races. At the age of 41, after her fourth baby, Tara took the ultimate challenge, faced all her fears, and competed in her first bikini competition.
