Tyrone understands the importance of determination. When he was a boy, he competed in his first 50-metre sprint race as part of a school sports day. Because he was small, his rivals didn’t even rate him as competition; yet his determination – his will to achieve the goal he was visualizing and win – enabled him to cross the finish-line first. It was this determination that transformed him from underdog to serious contender. And it’s this same sort of determination that he now helps his personal training clients generate within themselves, so that they can visualize their own health and fitness finish-line – and cross it.

Determination is what empowered Tyrone to become a professional sprinter who competed for twenty years at the elite level for England and Great Britain. This national and international experience – plus his achieving the ranking of second-fastest sprinter in the UK, eighth in Europe, and sixteenth in the world – inspired the development of his personal training philosophy, “there can be no growth without resistance”; or, simply put, a person must be willing to work to attain a desired fitness objective.

Having witnessed firsthand the rewards such determined work can bring, Tyrone translated his performance skills to coaching and personal training. He’s trained elite-level athletes (including professional soccer players); coached at community sports centres and primary schools, and for the Dame Kelly Legacy Trust where it was children and adolescents who benefited from his exercise and dietary expertise; and worked as a Personal Trainer for more than a decade, inspiring non-athletes and athletes alike to draw on their previously untapped self-confidence and inner-strength to achieve their goals. Anyone Tyrone trains comes to appreciate the connection between a healthy body and a healthy mind; and to share in his belief that, if you look after your body when you’re young, your body will look after you when you’re older.
