Summary

After fighting to pull out her strength, Tamara Walcott is now the strongest woman in the world. But it didn’t start out that way. In 2018, Tamara Walcott had reached her breaking point. Lost in motherhood and marriage, Tamara started binge eating. At 415 pounds, she no longer recognized herself and could barely look in the mirror. She finally decided enough was enough. Tamara shifted her mindset and began to prioritize herself. That’s when she found powerlifting. Tamara trained everyday and became stronger and stronger. And the rest is history. Today, Tamara balances being a mom, holding a world record in powerlifting, and running her foundation, Women in Powerlifting. Thanks for listening!
