Meet Trey Boyer

Getting to Know Trey Boyer

You might have noticed Trey’s advertisement in the last issue of The Happenings where his Life-Fulfi llment seminar will be held at the Plantation Manor on Thursday, October 20. Trey Boyer is no stranger to a lot of TGO residents, some of whom have relied on his fi tness and training program to produce results in both their health and self-confi dence. After learning about Trey’s long list of accomplishments, we thought our readers might enjoy taking a closer look at his background and career, and what he has planned for his October 20 program. Trey grew up in Oklahoma and became a teenage bodybuilding sensation at the age of 17 when he won numerous state titles and was named Teen Athlete of the Year. Upon graduating from high school, Trey set his sights on furthering his education and was accepted at the University of Oklahoma. However, just weeks before classes began, his parents chose to relocate to Virginia where they were originally from. Trey said, “That was one of those points in life where you really feel torn because you are ready to take on the world, but you also have this incredible closeness to your family.” As diffi cult as the decision was, Trey’s family supported it and he began his fall studies at Oklahoma.

In addition to having a full course load, Trey was also pursuing his bodybuilding career. It just so happens that Virginia, where his parents were, is one of the top-tier bodybuilding states in the nation and Trey set his sights on quite a lofty goal. “I wanted to become the youngest to ever win the title of Mr. Virginia and that became my driving force.” In addition to his disciplined lifestyle as an athlete, Trey also pursued an aggressive workload in his college studies. “I knew that I wanted to chart my own path in life and everything I did would serve a purpose.” There was a great deal of foresight in that the early goals Trey set for himself have nearly all come to fruition. He knew he wanted to be an entrepreneur, an author, and he wanted to be a keynote speaker who would one day inspire countless others to reach the highest quality of life for themselves. As a result of those goals, Trey focused his eff orts in studying Organizational Communication and Journalism, Business Management, and Health and Sports Science. As fate would have it, Trey captured the title of Mr. Virginia and also graduated from the University of Oklahoma in just four years. He then moved west where he began his fi rst job out of college in Venice Beach, California, at the mecca of body building, Gold’s Gym. They had over 7,000 members and Trey was hired to help run the nutrition center there, which was thriving. He began to notice there was no one instructing others on how to exercise. People would just come to the gym and do whatever they knew to do. There was nobody working with them on how to lose 10-20 pounds, or inches in their waist. That’s when Trey said a light bulb went off and he started teaching people how to train. Trey had no intention of staying in California and was ready to move back to Oklahoma where he took his knowledge and experience in personal training and launched his entrepreneurial career by opening up a state-of-the-art fi tness center. He would pioneer a new concept in fi tness training and off ered individualized holistic health care programs. In the early 1990’s, personal training was not even a term. Today, it is a commonly used throughout the country in almost every gym and fi tness center. Trey’s other business ventures included designing a complete catalog of nutritional supplements, owning and operating a nutrition center, and he wrote his fi rst of several books entitled, “What Are You Waiting For?” During the time that Trey was operating several businesses, he

“I knew that I wanted to chart my own path in life and everything I did would serve a purpose.”

was routinely asked to speak at various companies and events to share his success philosophy. Those speaking engagements included corporations such as Bank of America, Re/Max Realty, Chesapeake Energy, Walt Disney World, Herbal Life, plus civic organizations and universities. The feedback was incredibly positive, and Trey began to give serious consideration to entering the arena of public speaking on a full-time basis.

Trey eventually sold his companies in Oklahoma and relocated to Florida and has been a full -time resident of TGO for seven years. He arrived here in part because he wanted to be closer to his family, who reside in the park, and to also enjoy the beautiful weather that Florida offers. “It was always my dream to move and retire in Florida, I just never thought it would be at this young age.”

Since arriving in Florida, Trey has continued teaching his holistic health care programs for numerous clients, several of whom are residents here in TGO.

Since being a TGO resident, Trey has also written two more self-empowerment books containing principles and strategies that he includes in his holistic health care programs, as well as his speaking engagements. Trey states, “I am a strong advocate for strengthening the mind as it empowers the body and the two are inherently connected.” In his book, Unlock Your Full Potential, Trey explains that; “there are two opposing forces, commonly referred to as ‘yin’ and ‘yang’ which require balance between the mental and physical self.” In order to attain this balance, Trey teaches the importance of harnessing the power of your mind. One aspect of taking control of your mind is to choose your words carefully. There are over half a million words in the English language and the average person only uses one-half of one percent of the words available to them! Of those, approximately 1000 words can describe positive emotion while over 3000 describe negative emotions! Therefore, you need to be cognizant of the words you choose as they ultimately determine your outlook on life.

Trey’s program includes multiple platforms including podcasts and life-enhancing videos found at TreyBoyer. com. You are invited to hear Trey speak at the Manor where he will be speaking on; Where to Locate the Master Key, The Importance of Wearing a Watch, and How to Harness the Power of Your Mind.

This event is one night only and will held on Thursday, October 20, from 6:00-7:00 pm. Trey will be presenting a life-changing message entitled, “Unlock the Best Season of Your Life.” You can find ticket information in the ad listed on page 68 of this issue and at TreyBoyer.com. Trey says, “I want my listeners to be ecstatic with the information they walk away with and I want them to be fully entertained.”

Trey feels like his career has come full circle and is beyond blessed to launch his new speaking tour right here in TGO.
