Tiana Strong

Connect What fuels your passion for health and fitness?

I started this journey to take my life back. Managing diabetes, rebuilding my confidence, and proving to myself that my body is not broken fuels me every day. Training has shown me how powerful consistency is. My passion comes from becoming stronger, mentally and physically, every single day. Fitness gave me discipline, strength, and belief in myself and I want to show other women what is possible to reclaim health and build powerful lives.

What’s your favorite way to train or stay fit?

I love training in a way that fits real life. I work full time, have commitments, and family. Currently, my favorite way to train builds both strength and endurance. Some days it is a run, some days it is lifting, cycling, or swimming. Mixing things up keeps me challenged and consistent, helps me clear my head, and makes me feel strong, confident, and proud of what my body can do.

What would you do with $20,000?

I would use the $20,000 to keep investing in my health and to pour into other women who are on their own journeys. Some would go toward my triathlon training and events, and some toward helping my community access fitness and wellness resources. After losing 75+ lbs, I am proud of my body, and I would also use a portion to address loose skin so I can feel confident in the skin I worked so hard for.
