Toby Garbett

I am an Olympian and two-time World Champion rower as well as an experienced Pilates Instructor and Personal Trainer providing leading-edge fitness training to private clients.

Having first represented Great Britain in 1997 and competed in five Rowing World Championships and two Olympic Games, I then swapped rowing for triathlons, gaining my second GB vest, becoming National Age Group Champion in 2012 & 2013 and placing 6th at the World Triathlon Championships.

I believe my approach to fitness and well-being is unique to being an Olympic athlete and World Champion I accumulated a wealth of knowledge about what it takes to succeed and bring my in-depth understanding of focus, motivation and self-belief into my work with clients – whether they are complete beginners, returning to fitness after a break or training for competition.

I was also lucky enough to be invited to work as a guest fitness expert and presenter at the world famous The Body Hotel in St Lucia.  I worked as the Personal Trainer on Channel 4’s celebrity sports programme “The Games”, training the athletes both in the run up to the show and live on C4.

I have worked with many young athletes and sports teams including rowers and am now the Youth Sport Trusts senior Athlete Mentor at the National School Games and other programmes such as the FA Game On programme promoting girls football in schools.

Amongst my many, varied and long-standing private clients, Sir Tom Jones says: 

‘It took me a long time to admit that I need expert help with my overall fitness, and Toby has been the perfect solution. He is hugely experienced and can analyse what’s needed at any given time and is creative with his workouts, which makes the time challenging but really enjoyable. He’s very professional as well as a really nice guy so I always look forward to our sessions.  I know he will make a huge success of TG Gym & Wellness!”” – Sir Tom Jones

I have run training camps at home and abroad with my favourites being Wales, Croatia and Lanzarote. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or beginner this is the perfect place to get fit quick.
