Testimonials

I whole-heartedly recommend Tyler as a coach. I have seen firsthand his high level of technical knowledge, strategic programming skills, and deep understanding of sport’s complexities. Tyler’s approach to well-planned and personalized training allows athletes to reach their full potential in strength, technique or any other physical or mental quality required of their sport. His principled coaching style is complemented by his own dedication to training hard, experimentation and doing the necessary research to further help whoever is in front of him, at the level they require. Tyler emphasises technical mastery, and the mental resilience needed for competitive or recreational sport, creating a balanced, results-driven environment for his athletes. I fully endorse Tyler’s ability to guide athletes of all types to success.

I have experienced firsthand Tyler’s ability to motivate others and his commitment to helping you reach your full potential in all areas. He has a unique combination of expertise in both strength training and endurance sports, having dedicated significant time to studying and participating in each. Tyler leads by example and never shies away from doing the hard work himself, often training alongside his athletes to push them to perform at their best. Whether you’re focused on strength, endurance, or are taking a hybrid approach, Tyler can help you achieve your goals.

Ben Hennessy - NZ Duathlete/MultiSPort Athlete

After a long time plateauing in my training, Tyler’s personalized coaching and constant support helped me break through. His guidance and expertise were exactly what I needed, and I finally hit a 130kg clean and jerk—a milestone I once thought was out of reach since becoming a Masters lifter. With his help, I was able to progress forward and achieve my goals of getting stronger and lifting heavier.

Tyler went beyond just being a coach, he looks after his athletes. He walked alongside me during my lifting journey, even when I wasn’t feeling it, or wanted to explore something else. I feel extremely grateful to have worked with Tyler, he is so precise and thorough, and I am confident in his coaching, and his ability to take someone to a point they didn’t think they could get to. I definitely recommend getting in touch with Tyler whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just getting started.
