Today I speak with IFBB Pro Taryn Flanagan, a 27-year-old from Canada who won her Pro card in 2020 at the Amateur Olympia. She has been competing since 2018 and is the posing coach for Team Elite Physique and her company, Pose with a Pro. Taryn tells us about turning Pro and the changes she wants to make to her physique to compete in the Pro League. We talk about how food affects how you feel and the changes that can be made to help you feel your best. After a very long 2020 season, Taryn shares her struggles with her reverse and having to quarantine. And then the aftermath of that season and how it affected her confidence in the gym. Taryn talks about the importance of setting intentions for each season of bodybuilding and how that sets you up for long term success. We talk about posing trends and how to make your best posing routine for your physique. 

 

She is still a work in progress and wants girls to know they are not alone! Taryn’s story is so relatable. You don’t want to miss this interview!
