Today we’d like to introduce you to Tyrone Watts
Hi Tyrone, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan. My passion for health and fitness began at the young age of 13 after I tore my ACL in an 8th grade football game. From that moment on, I faced adversity in sports, but with faith and hustle, I always persevered.
Between 2016 and 2019, I became known as a fitness influencer in Detroit, training countless clients and hosting boot camps around the city. During 2019, I began having recurring dreams of being with the Dallas Cowboys. Believing these dreams were from God, I pursued them with unwavering faith. In November 2019, I moved to Texas and became an employee of the Cowboys organization.
While working there, I met my wife, who was a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader at the time. We now have a one year old son and another on the way. I ventured out on my own in 2022 and started my business, Power Through Performance. My business primarily focuses on training youth and professional athletes.
The name “Power Through” stems from James 2:26: “Faith without works is dead.” My philosophy is simple: always pray first, then power through.
That’s my story in a nutshell.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
Picking up and moving to Texas in 2019 took a lot of faith. All my family is in Detroit, and I had never been to Texas prior to coming here for my interview. Getting acclimated to a new city, where nothing is familiar and you don’t know anyone, is a process in itself. Then, stepping out on faith and becoming an entrepreneur is never easy. We often hear countless stories about what it takes, but you never truly understand until you’re in it.
The same month I decided to walk away from my place of employment was the same time my wife and I found out we were expecting our first child. Naturally, there was stress—concerns about finances and trying to build a business all at the same time. But with God’s grace, we “powered through.”
Thanks – so what else should our readers know about Power Through LLC?
