Let me reintroduce myself, I am Tyler Gritten
I've always been into sports. I grew up competing in sports such as Drag Racing from 11 to 25 years old, soccer, football & most recently retired from competitive curling that I did for 19 years.
My history with exercise stems from training with personal trainers back in 2012 - 2013. Back then,I knew nothing about the fitness industry outside being a fitness consultant for a big box gym. It was here where I got injured while deadlifting & bench pressing. This motivated me to figure out why, and so I went to school and committed myself to those with no experience like myself to correctly lift weights without fear.
I graduated from Elevated Learning Academy in 2014 with a diploma in personal training.
Through my 10 years as a coach,i've added continuous education continuously over the last 10 years le rning from some of the industries top coaches. My biggest influences in coaching come from learning from industry leaders in applied biomechanics, movement & mobility & rehabilitation specialists.
In my career, I’ve found that almost every one of my clients struggles with some sort of chronic injury or recurrent pain that makes it difficult for them to achieve their goals. Physiotherapy alone isn’t always enough to give everyone lasting relief from their symptoms, if it even helps at all, and strength training is typically under utilized in the rehabilitation progress, leaving many people stuck perpetually seeking ongoing treatment rather than seeing meaningful results.
It is for these reasons I created GRITT Personal Training to help bridge the gap between joint pain & pain-free performance. Empowering my clients to live an active lifestyle with fluidity, strength & confidence . Having kept myself in more athletic performance shape for curling along with being a dad of two boys has taught me even more about needing to move well, be strong and pain free outside of my life of being a coach to my amazing clients.
I would love to help you find a way to train without pain, make progress toward your health and fitness goals, and find lasting relief from your symptoms
