Our Mission
Our approach is different… we get your passion. Our healthy obsession with fitness, race strategy, race preparation, and commitment to guiding our athletes to constant improvement is ingrained in our DNA…however our programs are done in a way that always allows for balance and recovery. This is true for the world class Olympian or the “working warrior” looking to get the best out of the time they have.
The truth is, very few “trainers” (we dislike the term) understand what it takes to take a rider or endurance athlete to the World Championship level, but we do, and have done so for years. Our SX/MX riders have won many main events and podium appearances over the years. But uniquely enough, it was the intangibles that allowed for this, AND is what sets us apart from any other ‘trainer’ or training-based group.
The Devil is in the Details
If you don’t have a true compass of training principles, nutrition, customized training and race preparation/strategy, you’re just wasting time and money. The “real” value you get in being a NXT LVL client is knowing you’re working with people that have the proper personality traits and experience that will enable your success, as well as the strength of character to see it through. We’ve done it repeatedly for years. The right people can radically (and quickly) take your results to the “Next Level”.

Even while chasing a Pro MX career, Ty received his AA degree from Fullerton College in 1998 where he began his quest for knowledge on health, fitness and nutrition.
After his motocross career was finished, Ty moved into cycling where he amassed 5 US National Mountain Bike Titles and 30+ Career national race wins over the last decade. He is among a very select few that have won US Mountain bike titles in four different disciplines – Cross-Country, Short Track, Marathon and Super D.

This gives Ty great hands on experience with working with athletes in a team environment.
