About Me
Myles Tate is a former collegiate basketball player and graduate from George Mason University. He graduated with a B.S. in Kinesiology, and went on to continue his education at GMU and earned a M.S. in Exercise, Fitness, and Health Promotion. During this program he was able to present at the National Strength and Conditioning Association (NSCA) national conference for which he conducted a successful study on improved Vertical jump in high school basketball players. Basketball has always been a passion of his, and he was fortunate enough to have played 4 years at the collegiate level. Following a high school career which included over 1,600 points and 500 assists, he went on to play at GMU against some of the top players in the country in the Atlantic 10 Conference. This playing experience led him into coaching, as he is now an assistant coach at nationally ranked Paul VI HS in Fairfax, VA, where he is a 1x state champion.
Myles values the experiences, relationships, and lessons he learned during his time playing and strives to give back to the next generation to help them accomplish their goals. He believes that basketball skills training is vital at all ages, and can help improve not only an athletes' skillset and knowledge of the game, but their confidence. With a scientific-based approach to strength and performance training, Myles looks forward to assisting with an athlete's overall development and helping them maximize their full potential.
