Tammy Streich was born and raised in small town USA and is now a certified personal trainer, group fitness leader, fitness competitor, fitness model, and (first and foremost) a Wife & Mom.
Tammy was very active and participated in several competitive school athletic programs including basketball, track, gymnastics, and cheerleading. She even cheered in college for 3 years.
Tammy has been involved in the Fitness Field for over 20 years receiving a BS in Exercise Science with a minor in Marketing followed by a degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant.
Tammy has always had a love for fitness, but when her father suffered a stroke at the age of 42, she became more concerned with health, not just fitness. She truly has a passion for a healthy lifestyle, not just "working out" to look good. She has watched her dad struggle with his disability's from his stroke for over 20 years now and it makes her appreciate having a strong, capable, fit, and healthy body. She truly enjoys helping others reach and excel their own health/fitness goals.
Tammy began competing in Fitness Competitions her first year out of college. She missed the discipline and focus of competition and having a goal to strive towards. She had always used strength training to excel in sports, but really began working hard to change her physique. After several years of successfully competing in the Fitness category (fitness routine & physique) she decided to "retire" and focus on starting a family. This took many years, due to fertility issues, but she finally had her daughter at the age of 40. Tammy decided while she was pregnant to set the goal of stepping back on stage in a Bikini Model competition one year after delivery! 14 months later she was back on stage and is now working to earn her Pro status with The WBFF.
