Fit Status:
I am getting ready for photoshoots next weekend in Fort Lauderdale during the NPC Nationals Weekend.
Motivation Level: 10/10
Personal Info And Background:
Real Name:
Tamar LiCalzi Cohl

Occupation:
Fitness/Bikini Model, WBFF Fitness Diva/Figure Athlete, GLUTEN FREE Living Life Coach, Personal Trainer and Nutrition Educator
My mother was a bodybuilder as I was growing up. I had to go to the gym with her as my brother and I were home schooled. I loved the smell of the gym, the weights, and the "burn" I would feel when working out (as an 8 year old kid, I did not do much back then.....just abs and calves). I have always had it in my blood and have used weight training principals since high school and college. I go to the gym 5-6 times a week for atleast 2 hours a day. When I need to lean up for a photoshoot, I always try to incorporate higher reps and 1.5 to 2 hours of cardio a day! I tend to hold body fat on my lower body, so I have to do a lot more cardio. LOL
Why I Love It:
It makes me feel good! It makes me feel healthy and vibrant! I love the way my muscles look when they are pumped! I love the way my abs look when I lean out! I love being in the gym and hearing the clanging of weights. I love being around other people that like doing the same thing as me!
How I Stay Motivated:
I personally stay motivated by wanting to earn my IFBB Pro Card in Bikini by the end of 2009 so that I can be one of the first IFBB PRO Bikini competitors in 2010! I will make this happen with the training and nutritional guidance of Hany Rambod (The Pro Creator). :-)

Actually stepping on stage at the 2007 NPC Southern States after doing my own prep and diet...and not looking that bad! Now, I have a trainer, so I will be looking a lot better, meaning leaner and tighter. I plan on placing in my next couple of shows.

Goal (Long):
Hi! My name is Tamar Cohl...aka...PlanetTamar. I am a bikini and glamour model turned physique model and NPC Figure Competitor soon to be NPC Bikini Competitor. I love working out, changing my body, inspiring others to be the best they can be, and learning new things. I am married and I have 2 dogs. That keeps me busy and I love my little family. My husband is very supportive of my goals in life and I appreciate his unconditional love.
March 2009 I started training under Hany Rambod! I am stoked about this! Hany is going to bring my physique to a level that it has never been before! We have picked out one show thus far and I will let you all know when the time comes. :-) We are going to concentrate on other things than just contest prep, first! :-)
I am a self proclaimed Celiac Sprue Disease expert. I was diagnosed with CD in March of 2007 and immediately noticed a change in my body composition after getting wheat/gluten/barley/rye/and contaminated oats (and their by products) out of my diet. I was suffering for years with problems that were not getting diagnosed properly at the Dr.'s! People thought that I was a mental head case and that I just cared about the way I looked on the outside. Nobody understood that I was not well on the inside because my body was always reacting to what I was eating (even though I thought it was healthy for me....like oats, whole wheat bread, etc.). Now that I am Gluten and Wheat Free, I look and feel like a different woman! I do not believe that anyone should eat food or supplements with Gluten in it, especially if they want to change their physiques for the better. It is a "poison" to the small intestinal villi that are responsible for absorbing the nutrients of our food. If we kill our villi, we do not absorb the nutrients and then we will slowly but surely get many other health problems. (To much to mention in this brief bio area).
My mother was a bodybuilder when I was young. She did not compete, but she did bring my brother and I to the gym when we were kids. I got a love for working out and have never stopped. I will always work out for health and fitness even when my competing and modeling days are behind me.
Thanks for reading my bio. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at:
tamarcohl@gmail.com or here on Bodyspace! xoxo Tamar
Sarah inspires me because she is determined to reach her goals and she has a very positive attitude. She is also willing to learn new ways to train as she has been conditioned to train a certain way being a TOP athlete at a major university! She is kind, caring, and compassionate, and a super nice friend!
Wow...just met this lady today after she left me a compliment! I love her way of thinking...embracing everything about ones self and loving and accepting yourself is the best attitude to have! Thank you for reminding me to embrace my imperfections and love myself. Because I am beautiful on the inside as well. :-) God Bless you! :)
Medium weight with higher reps. I will occasionally incorporate heavy leg training days, too. But I tend to keep to a lot of bodyweight exercises and medium resistance. I do a lot of sets and a lot of reps and a lot of exercises, from walking lunges, to step-ups, to squats, leg extensions, ham curls, etc. I usually do not train quads and hams on the same day, but I dedicate a lot of training to my glutes.Medium weight with higher reps.

I had a great dinner last night. A little bit off of my contest diet, but it had the same principle. I have to switch things up ocassionally or I will go INSANE! Eating Tilapia 4 x day can be brutal, so last night I had.....SNOOK. :-)
For those of you that live in Florida, you know...
Yeah girl, I hope we win another National Championship. Tim Tebow is a great quarterback. I love doing Stadiums. My boyfriend and his friends always go also. Let me know when you are in town.
Hey Tamar, thanks for the add : - ) Well, yes, I could definitely do with some nutritional help! I've often wondered whether wheat and gluten was an issue for me so I'd be interested in finding out more about that too. Your figure is inspiring to me - you look great so I'd love to find out more about how you got there : - ) x
I am incredibly honored and would like to thank you for saying that you find me inspirational. It is people like you here at Bodybuilding.com that keep me inspired as well as allowing me to continue believing that fitness truly can make a difference in people’s lives.
Stay strong, focused and determined & may God bless.
