Tyler is the best personal training iv ever experienced not just him but his whole TNT team. Iv always been very skeptical of personal training but after working with him he has changed my perspective in the fitness game and personal training in general. He is super easy to work with and got me the results I was looking for faster than I expected if your on the fence about working with him I say just do it you won't regret it read more

This experience with TNT has been amazing. Starting off by winning the fitness scholarship this past summer was the biggest blessing. Being up and down in weight , my whole life has been a struggle. Suffering from lower back pain. To barely being able to walk, and not working for a few months. Was a huge Turing moment in my life. Losing weight by just dropping calories was not the key. When I won the scholarship with TNT. I knew that was God's way of starting me on a new journey. So thankful to Coach Tyler for the opportunity, and having Coach Jake by my side has been amazing. Since joining TNT, and keeping up with the program that the coaches have planned specifically for me. It's been amazing. I've gained strength , muscle, education. And I can honestly say I rarely suffer from lower back pain anymore . It's been nothing short of amazing. There have still been a few struggles. I do have a love hate for food. I'm always scared that I will jump back on the junk 24/7 bandwagon. But I've grown so much on this journey with TNT that I know it's ok to have some of those foods if I want. And not beat myself up about it. Just start back on the path TNT has planned out for me. And I know it's going to be ok. Sometimes finding the motivation. But coach Jake keeps that going for me . I've gained muscle. I don't look sickly skinny anymore . I've found more confidence. And I know its only going to get better. When I beat myself up for certain things. I know I have coach Jake and coach Tyler there to help me and push me to keep going. Beyond greatful. read more

I've been working with Tyler for 6 months & he is an absolutely INCREDIBLE trainer! I was looking to lean out, tone my body & learn how to master the ultimate discipline. Personal training with Tyler has helped me to become more confident both inside & outside the gym. I'm proud to say that he grew my booty, snatched my waist & made me feel like a total BEAST in the process. I had no prior extensive knowledge of training before this. And learned a LOT of skills that will help me for a lifetime now. If you're on the fence about joining, I would say you will NEVER regret investing in your mental & physical health. It is sure to help every other aspect of your life completely flourish. I am amazed at my progress & this is hands down one of the best decisions I ever made in order to better myself. Tyler is an awesome motivator & mentor, as well as friend. His time is valuable & is in high demand so definitely snag him while you can! One of the best trainers out there.‍ read more

THANK YOU COACH TYLER!!! If you're on the fence or looking for a new coach, then TNT and Coach Tyler are the ones you need for your fitness journey. Tyler is by far the best fitness coach I have ever worked with hands down. I have been working with Coach Tyler for a little over a year and he is always there for you no matter the issue. While working with Tyler I went through some tough situations from an unexpected health issue with my newborn daughter, to personal health issues, and just being down on myself. So, I will admit I struggled with my results on my fitness journey. But you know what, Coach Tyler was there for me every step of the way. He was always checking in with me, jumping on phone calls, and making sure I was doing okay. I have never had that experience with any of the past fitness coaches I worked with. All they cared about was their paycheck and could care less if you showed up. But not Coach Tyler, he wanted me to succeed through all the things thrown at me no matter what. He pushed me to be better not just in my fitness journey but in life. Everything I have learned from Tyler I will continue to use today. With Coach Tyler's help I have learned a new approach to fitness and "dieting." I would use the term dieting loosely because Tyler has shown me you don't need to be on a restrictive diet and working out 24/7. With his plan of attack, I work out full body 3 times a week and I can eat whatever I want. As long as I stay within my calorie limit and hit my protein goal. I didn't think the results would come but they did, even with my setbacks I would bounce back. I can't thank Coach Tyler and the team at TNT enough for all the help. read more

When I started my fitness journey I never knew that I would have made the progress I have and it's all thanks to Tyler who kickstarted my new lifestyle. Along with having amazing knowledge about the different muscle groups and how to target each one, he was motivating and realistic about reaching goals. I learned so much from him that we may not work together anymore, I STILL use the information he taught me. I highly recommend him and promise you will get an amazing coach! read more

Wow, so much to say. The last 6 months have been incredible. I came into SMTF (Self Made Training Facility) with only the understanding that I needed to change up my lifestyle and really not much understanding about gym life. In June 2019, I came to the realization that I had lost so much stability and strength due to a recent accident and a previous knee injury (ACL/Miniscus repair) and as a massage therapist I knew the importance musculoskeletal stability plays in insuring the prevention of future injuries. In addition, starting any sort of new exercise routine meant that I needed to make sure I was lifting correctly, which meant I would need expert guidance. So, I began my search and thank goodness I found Tyler. He is by far the best Personal Trainer yet. His attention to detail, his ability to properly queue, added with his motivating and knowledgeable words, sets him above the rest. From what I experienced, Tyler easily communicated exactly what I needed and spoke in a way that I could understand. During my training with him, I discovered that Tyler has exceptional determination and dedication to his work. He likes to have fun and be playful, but when it comes down to it he really cares about your progress and your success. Form and function are the foundation of his workouts. If I couldn't get the form right, we would train and prime the weakest muscles, so that I could eventually get into the more complex movements. Tyler also met me at my level. Feeling ill? Tyler would say let's take it easy, we don't want to stress the Central Nervous System, since stressing the system would serve only to extend the recovery time and wouldn't benefit the gains. His programs are straightforward and designed specifically for your needs. If you have questions, ask away, Tyler loves to dig into the science of fitness and will provide resources for additional education and self-care. I'm so glad that I signed up for 3 days a week for 1hr. Commiting 6 months of my life. Having Tyler as my coach pushed me further than I would have been able to on my own. Just sit and meet with him for a while and you'll see what I mean. He's had a profound way of pulling out the best in me. I will never forget all that I've learned and never will I go back to my old lifestyle patterns. Tyler, you have earned my respect and you will forever be my Sensei. You are a success. read more

Taught Not Told Coaching has been a game changer for me. I have always worked out off and on for a couple months here and there. But through this process, I have gained valuable information, dedication/discipline, and for once in my life I have seen exceptional results. The coaching and fitness app truly made this an enjoyable experience. My coach, coach Tyler, has a tremendous amount of knowledge when it comes to diet and training. I can tell he spends countless hours researching information just to make the good things he's already doing even better. He does not stick to one way of coaching, he is always adapting and trying to further his knowledge to give his clients the best possible results. More importantly, he listens to all of your concerns and he guides you every step of the way, from your diet, your training, and your schedule. Besides the normal diet and exercising that most trainers only focus on, Tyler also dives DEEP into your sleep, stress, libido, energy levels, mental state and everything else you wouldn't think of looking at as you start a workout journey. Ultimately, if you want a program that helps you be the best version of yourself, this is the place for you. read more

Before working with Tyler I was very skinny with no muscle. Was looking to build muscle and strength. We had trained together for about a year. Overall best training experience I had ever had. We built a booty! To this day could not find a better coach than him! I had moved away so I could no longer train with him but now we do online which is helpful after the in-person training so that I can have correct form. He REALLY works with you so that you can work out independently and learn how to do workouts without a trainer! 11/10 recommend! read more

My boy Tyler here really helped me out a ton¡ We really hit it off right off the bat, really into a lot of the same stuff and on the same wave length on so many different levels¡ Started training with him about a year ago, weight lifting 3x/wk cardio 2x/wk, I'm at 6'0" I was at 213.6lbs. 63.3lbs. of body fat mass and 85.1lbs. of muscle mass. 1 year later I am at 192.2lbs. 36.3lbs. of body fat mass and 89.3lbs. of muscle mass. He's a good guy and I genuinely feel I gained a friend in the journey¡¡ read more

Been training with both Nate and Tyler, and have been loving the results. Not only the physical ones but also the mental ones and how my mindset has shifted positively. I like the way the program Is set up, along with the app, and how fast and easy it is to be able to get in touch with them if you have any questions. My journey with them is only half way over and can't wait to see where I'll end up! read more

Where do I start! Tyler is such an amazing individual coach who really cares for his clients. Walking in there (self made facility) for the first time might be a little scary to anyone who is new. Tyler really takes the time to show and teach you step by step on how to PROPERLY perform an exercise. In the past I had coaches before who were telling me how to to a exercise but never teaching me the proper fundamentals to start. Tyler always make sure that you are 100% mentally and physically before doing anything in the gym. He will always make sure to give you an honest and truthful answers...although some are not the one you might not want to hear but it's one you have to hear. Tyler is more then a coach. My time that I spent there he was a role model and mentor in real life situations in and out of the gym. Always answered all my questions no matter if they were "dumb" or whatever it may be. I will assure this...no matter what your goal is Tyler is the coach to get it done. It don't matter if it's for Loosing weight, toning down, getting strong etc...he will get the job done guiding you step by step. He will always reassure in any doubt you get among the way... read more

Tyler is the absolute real deal, his approach to health, wellness and fitness focuses on how to create great habits that set you up for long term success. Yes, he will absolutely get you to your goals but with little nuggets of wisdom that make you more aware of the little day to day things that will help get you to your goals inside and outside of the gym. I was by no means a "gym" person, I could barely do a bench press with the bar only, I definitely did not know what great squat form was, and truthfully I didn't know how to use 90% of the equipment in the gym. To say I was intimidated was an understatement, Tyler really made me feel comfortable in this new environment and he taught me literally EVERYTHING I know about fitness. He got me deadlifting at 155 and bench pressing at like 140. He made me strong but also confident! He taught me about balance, how to not only listen to my body but understand it, and how to fuel my body for the results I wanted. He's truly an amazing coach, he will push you in the gym but so you know what you are capable of and it's always way more than you ever thought you could do! If you're looking for a killer trainer long term or short term, seriously.. look no further. Tyler is 5000% your guy, bonus is he's also pretty funny so sessions are never boring. read more

I was with Tyler for about a year and I can say with confidence that he has truly transformed the way I think about weight lifting and everything in between! I was a very skinny guy who had no idea what he was doing in the gym and wasn't seeing any results but I knew one thing was for sure : I wanted to get big! After seeing some of Tyler's clients on Instagram making some good results I decided to inquire and it was the best decision i could've made for myself at the time. He really cared about the information he was telling me which made me believe in him and his training program a lot more. Whatever questions I had about form, dieting and even life advice he was there to help! I think about my time with Tyler a lot because it truly set the tone moving forward. Since then, I haven't missed a day of training and my numbers have shot up over that time and I feel tons more confident in the gym. I can truly say that I was TAUGHT the right way how to train and not just TOLD. Thanks again, I owe it all to you Tyler! read more

Without a doubt, this place is a temple for warriors. The moment you come out from a session, you instantly feel like a warrior. The knowledge and experience my boy Tyler has is incomparable from what I have experienced in my 5 years of lifting. Not only is he a trainer, but he is also a preacher, a mentor, and a friend for the right way to complete a training. Tyler's foundation of knowledge in this game leads him to transform peoples daily lifestyle, like the way he did with me. I actually stopped training with him since the start of the pandemic and the results I have obtained with Tyler are still present to this day. Not only his drive for success is apparent but the sustainability of success is also obvious throughout his clients. My perspective for lifting and manipulating my muscles in a day to day basis has evolved. It is incredible to learn and be taught the right way to use your body, a whole new door, a whole new vision opens up. Your body is much more capable that what you think, is something coach Tyler has taught me. Once you speak to Tyler, your faith and belief in your body will change for the better. Confidence, maturity, and discipline is gained from the temple of warriors. What are you waiting for ? read more
