About Derek

I am the 51st Nasm Master Trainer in the United States of 45,000 certified personal trainers on 110 of them have earned the title Master Trainer. Fitness is my pride, joy and passion. I started Top Flight Fitness on my 13th birthday, April 21st, 2004, to help my team mates improve their agility and overall strength in football, basketball and track. Even though I was only 13, I felt a great sense of pride and usefulness uplifting both myself and my team.

I received various academic scholarships to Kansas State University, but due to finances, moved back home after a summer semester and enrolled at Prairie View A&M.

During my tenure at Prairie View, I used my fitness knowledge to offer training and advice to over 2,500 people in four years, including children, university staff and students. I earned my Bachelors in Chemical Engineering in 2011.

Top Flight Fitness became a YouTube channel when my personal views conflicted with the structural integrity of PV’s athletic department and their training philosophy. I sought an outlet for depression and a way to further my outreach. YouTube provided that, and connected me with many amazing YouTubers. My most influential collaboration – to date – was with Chris Jones, aka Beast Mode Jones of Pump Chasers. After a few collaborations with Chris, my subscribers went from 100 to over 2,000 in two weeks; proving the power of social media.

I strive to continuously become a better version of myself, and I want others to adopt the same mindset. Never let size define how “great” or “powerful” you are. The fitness industry has this thing where...if you don’t look like you can crack concrete walking down the street, you’re categorized as “weak”. I’m here to break that mold. I want to show people that true athleticism comes from functionality, consistency and discipline. I’m here to prove that true strength goes beyond size, whether you want to look like a tank or be compact like a bullet.

Whether you decide to “take flight” with us, or continue your journey elsewhere, remember. No Struggle, No Strength.
