„I started competitive cheerleading, after trying out many sports as a kid such as track & field, breakdance, tennis, BMX, soccer. I was never outstanding but each sport – my coaches, my teammates, and my opposition – taught me a lot about winning, losing and the purpose of a role model athlete. Success is just a matter of having the right purpose, I figured. You have to feel it, you have to love it, everything else comes by itself, and you will figure out your own finesse! As an athlete and as a coach, I was and still am driven learn – from myself and others. I have met, worked alongside, and coached thousands of athletes, which has been the best education tool I could ask for. Now it’s time to give back with TOSS! – PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH – This is what we value, teach and provide with TOSS!

„In the beginning of my American football career I struggled to reach international performance standards. I just wasn’t ready to compete with the body I had. My interest in how to get in the best physical shape possible increased constantly. I started studying sport science and continued my education in strength training. Then began sharing my knowledge by providing training and nutrition plans to football players. Today I am a lecturer for training theory, sports medicine and strength & conditioning, host of coaches clinics and speaker at several sport and science podcasts and conferences. Also, I even started cheerleading a year ago. I have finished my doctoral thesis in sport science, and right now it’s time for TOSS! – PRACTICE WHAT YOU PREACH – This is what we value, teach and provide with TOSS!“
