OUR MISSION
Training that transcends
Aristotle and the philosophers of his day searched for the meaning of life. They believed it had to be more than just the physical. They came up with the idea of transcendence — that there are things that cannot be questioned nor denied; things like truth, goodness and beauty.
At TGB we understand the same. There is more, much more, to this life. We want to help you transcend — to become more, and to become the person who sees and exhibits truth, goodness and beauty in all things.
Truth cannot be denied: the sun rises and the sun sets. Goodness is known when observed: helping ones fellow man. Beauty cannot be explained: it is inexplicably moving. This is where we go with our training.

Coach Bristo prioritizes understanding his athletes’ goals and limitations. This connection fuels their desire for holistic growth. I am convinced he has made my daughter a better and stronger athlete, leader, and teammate over the last 3 years. She is very proud to call herself #bristomade.

For those of you who are either an athlete or Coach, or just a person who enjoys lifting and you don’t know where to start or what to do, then I suggest to you a person by the name of Daniel Bristo. There are countless coaches and trainers out there that can get you a program, BUT not many who know how watch you do simple movements and find out where you should start. Don’t waste your time, effort and money on some program that doesn’t have the correct exercises to start out with and carry you further. Make sure you choose wisely as your body depends on it.

I have been living the TGB training life for some time now. I can say, at almost 60, it has given me the strength and mobility to keep up with my children and grandchildren. Running, playing, lifting or just having fun, I can stay in the game!

Coach Bristo is a fantastic speed and agility coach, but also a life coach. Not only did I get faster and stronger, he listened to me and also gave me advice and walked me through life during our training sessions. He is a fantastic and energetic Coach who loves to get after it and put people to work. If you want to get faster, strong and also strengthen your relationship with God and the people around you, Coach Bristo is the man for the job!
Braden Bristo,
MLB Pitcher
Coach Bristo has helped athletes of all ages for many years, including me. He helped me understand and execute on the basic principles of movement, strength, speed and conditioning throughout my whole athletic career. I would not have gotten where I did without his guidance, and he can help get you where you want to go, too.
Michael Gragg,
Collegiate Strength & Conditioning Coach
Every athlete I know who has worked with Coach Bristo is highly skilled, technical, and disciplined in movement. It is evident that Coach Bristo takes movement quality and proficiency very seriously on the field and in the weight room. He gets the very best out of his athletes.
