Alyssa Buckley recently interviewed me for the blog 29 Secrets. We talked about my new Reebok Bootcamp DVD, circuit training, motivation, and more:

“Motivation is key,” says Tanja. “Everyone loses the motivation sometimes and I always say that is when you have to switch to auto pilot so that you get the work done. Getting in shape and seeing results are of course an amazing motivator, but there won’t be results if there is no work done.” Ask yourself, “Why are you doing this? Who is your role model and what kind of inspiring traits does that person have? What will you tell yourself when you want to quit? If you are prepped with these answers they might help you get through the rough spots.”
