Tara Jenkins

I have been a competitive athlete all of my life, starting in track & field representing Victoria as a girl/teen, then Gridiron representing Victoria as a young adult & then CrossFit where I have competed internationally at the CrossFit Games. 

I am very passionate about training at my peak & feeling my best by fueling & recovering well. I love sharing my knowledge with my online community & members at the gym I work for. 

How True products fuel my health and fitness goals

The True products fuel me before, during & after training sessions - they give me energy to train, help aid recovery & build me into a better performing athlete. 

Favourite True products

  1. Protein Bars in Salted Caramel or Toasted Coconut - I take these to work with me and snack on them during the day. 

  2. True Post in Rich Chocolate - I have this straight after training to help aid recovery. 

  3. True Creatine - I have this in the morning to help with my weightlifting explosiveness.

  4. True Plant Protein in Rich Chocolate or Banana Bread - I like to bake with the plant protein. I make banana bread or chocolate oat slice and have this as a snack between coaching classes. Sweet treats with a protein hit! 🙂

What motivates me

Feeling really good & energised motivates me. I feel my best when I'm fit, strong & healthy on the inside and I strive to feel like this as much as possible as it boosts my work productivity & my athletic performance. 

Competing also motivates me a lot! I love having something to work towards & being surrounded by people who thrive off the same thing! 

Nothing makes me feel happier than achieving PB's & getting fitter & stronger as I get older. 

My proudest achievement would have been either competing at the CrossFit Games with my team mates or competing at the Down Under Championships & doing all the movements I am terrible at, but committing & doing my best. 

My Favourite True Value

My favourite would have to be 'Be True.' To me, this means be true to yourself & don't compare yourself with anyone else but yourself. 

Be true to your training, your recovery, what you put into your body & your own goals.
