Bio

About: My name is Tywin Kalandyk. I was born a drug and alcohol-addicted baby. As soon as I was born I was put straight into foster care soon after I was adopted.

I went on to excel at sports and ended up getting a full-ride scholarship to play Division 1 football.

After college, I went into the corporate world and quickly found out that wasn't for me.

I went on to start my career as an entrepreneur. At 27 I decided to enter into the fitness space. I'm currently 40 and have been in the fitness industry ever since.
