Tj Medlock
I am 28, excitedly married, and thrive to be part of a community! I'm a garage gym athlete and train with a tribe in my home town of Mt Pleasant. They're the reason I have been able to push myself to another level. Their community and people were the perfect thing to take me past my plateaus of training in my garage. This is my 2nd time "competing" in the OPEN. I am doing this for accountability and to check myself on my goals. I train because I love it and I love how it affects my life. Throughout high school, college, and graduate school I always felt like I had a strong base of knowledge every year. Not surprisingly, I always learned that I had only scratched the surface on knowledge, philosophy, application, and interaction. My philosophy is one of a life long learner. We are never done learning whether it be novel experiences or just from interactions among each other. I had adopted the mindset of an influential trainer before I even read a word about it. It has challenged me to stay healthy, pinpoint weaknesses, and continuously drive for improvement. As a trainer and coach, I live by a motto instilled in me from one of my best mentors. We should teach others to teach. This empowers the individual and creates a positive cycle. It is deeply rooted into our community and pairs well with my own personal views of fitness. We are capable of anything and I strive to make sure my athletes know that.
