Tommy Boyd

Hello, my name is Tommy Boyd. I can honestly say that fitness has changed the trajectory of my life. Having grown up very overweight, I entered into high school as a 6’2″ 250lbs 9th grader. I used to have no work ethic and faked stomach aches to get out of running in various sport practices. However, upon entering 9th grade I immediately fell in love with training and finished high school as a 3-sport varsity athlete in football, basketball, and baseball at 6’4″ 190lbs. This led to a collegiate career as a varsity level student-athlete and team captain in both football and basketball which I began to build more muscle mass finishing my career at 6’4″ 250lbs once again, but now with much more lean muscle mass. Eventually my passion for fitness led me to Springfield, Mass where I attended Springfield College. I received my masters degree in Applied Exercise Science – Strength and Conditioning at Springfield College while serving as a strength and conditioning graduate assistant coach and teaching fellow in the physical education department. After brief stops as a strength and conditioning coach at Quinnipiac University, University of Hawaii, and Toyota Driver Development (North Carolina), I returned home to Saint Paul, MN where I now serve as a K-12 PE teacher at Saint Agnes School as well as head strength and conditioning coach, head varsity girls basketball coach, and assistant varsity football coach. I hope my background speaks on the experience that I will bring professionally and that we can work together in meeting your training goals!

To make fitness a fun, yet challenging experience that you look forward to weekly. Without challenge there is no change, but without fun what is it even worth?! It's not about what you do, but how you do it!

You can expect me to address you and your individual needs both in fitness as well as personally. There is no cookie cutter program for all of us because we are all different! I want to address your own personal needs and goals while also being mindful of the daily stressors we all experience and adjust training sessions to what you may need that day. All of this is to be done while developing a strong coach-client relationship. I care about my clients and athletes as humans first and hope I can help impact you positively in any way that I can!

When I first began at Saint Agnes School in fall of 2020 I was approached by a student-athlete and his father. Their goal was to build as much muscle and athleticism for the student as we could in the next two years. When we first began he weighed only 160lbs, 2 years later he was up to 190lbs when he finished his high school career while earning multiple all-conference honors in both football and basketball along with multiple opportunities to play football collegiately.

Playing basketball, biking, going for drives with the windows down while blasting country music, and spending time with my loved ones.
