I guess you could say I have always been drawn to the health and fitness world. I played team sports like volleyball, lacrosse and basketball growing up, and always made amazing connections with my teammates and coaches. But it has been more recent, in the past 5 years, that I have truly become dedicated to all things fitness, nutrition, and overall wellness related, which has led me down a path o
f very focused study in exercise, nutrition and mindset. Personal Trainer ♥ Nutritionist ♥ Health Coach
Today, I am a certified personal trainer through the International Sports Sciences Association. I love the gym and I love helping you design an exercise program that gets you results. I quickly learned that food plays a much larger role in results than we think, which led me to study nutrition. Most personal trainers have very little education in nutrition and what little bit of training they do have, it is not customized to fit the individual. As a holistic health coach through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, I can help you understand what foods work best for you and help you learn to eat in a way that gets you the best results. For many people, we know what we should do when it comes to diet and exercise, but we don't know why we can't make ourselves do it. This question led me to pursue an additional certification in the psychology of eating. In May of 2014, I completed my certification as a eating psychology coach through the Institute for the Psychology of Eating and am now one of only a handful of coaches in San Diego County to have this specialized certification. A Complete Approach:
Through all of my education, I have been introduced to the most fresh and up-to-date findings on what it actually takes to be healthy. I have also learned about all the tricks that the media and fad diets have been playing on us. Overall, I have learned through all my certs that living a healthy life consists of not only good exercise and nutrition, but also a healthy and stress-free approach to life. Thanks to all that I have learned (and am continuing to learn), I am SO excited to share my knowledge and passion to help as many people as possible reach their optimal health. I do private training/coaching for an insanely reasonable price, so get in touch with me today and we can talk about setting up an individualized program that will best suit your long-term goals! :)
Testimonials:
"Tyler Smith's workouts are the best workouts of my life! She created a full body workout that challenged my mind and body like I've never experienced. I felt an exhilaration during and afterwards. Little did I know that I would be working out so many body parts with my own body weight. Tyler's workouts are not only challenging, they are fun. I gave her and my workouts my all because I knew my body was getting a workout like never before and I didn't want to waste a single moment. I definitely pushed myself, thanks to Tyler, and could see my strength developing! If you want to challenge yourself and see results, I highly recommend Tyler and her workouts! After just one session, you'll love her as much as I do!"

"Tyler is amazing. Plain and simple. She really listens to what your fitness goals are and then tailors a program specifically to help you get there. She's encouraging, attentive, and always shows up early and ready to go. I've always enjoyed working out, but I love my sessions with Tyler because she takes the thinking out of it. It's so nice for someone to put something together for you and hold you accountable to it as you work out. She helps you maintain correct form throughout your session and also makes sure you are listening to your body and what it's telling you. I have several old injuries, everything from my knee, to my wrists and shoulder. She listens to what ails you and then puts together a program that still allows you to workout, but not aggravate those areas. I can't recommend her enough and I plan to be working out with her as long as she'll have me!"
~Jen Wojcik
"When I started working out with Tyler, I had been training for several marathons. Tyler took the time to customize and personalize my workouts so that we could concentrate on my personal goals. Adding her strength and core training to my program has made me stronger and faster in a short amount of time! She has also helped me specifically strengthen my back and upper body where I needed it. Her workouts are fun, hard, and she is a great motivator! I plan to hit this year hard with updated goals, and Tyler helping me achieve them!"

"Tyler is fantastic. I had been considering hiring a personal trainer and wasn't even sure where to begin looking. My friend recommended Tyler and the rest was history. From the first email, I could tell she had a good heart and truly wanted to help me succeed with my goals. At our first meeting, I felt like she truly listened to me. She really learned what motivated me and followed through with that during our sessions. When I had some crazy schedule changes she was completely accommodating. I feel like I truly lucked out in hiring Tyler. There were days I didn't want to get out of bed to go workout but I knew Tyler's smiling face would be there waiting for me! I felt stronger and more energetic after every session with her. I absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for some motivation in whatever your goals may be!"
