Tommy Europe
Tommy Europe is the no-nonsense drill sergeant and host of The Last 10 Pounds Bootcamp, airing Tuesdays at 8pm ET/PT beginning March 6 on Slice™.
Tommy is one of the country’s most sought-after personal trainers, whose modus operandi is a tough-love, in-your-face approach. “Pain is just weakness leaving the body”, says Tommy, who was voted Vancouver’s Best Personal Trainer in a 2006 readers’ poll conducted by the Georgia Straight newspaper.
Tommy earned his credentials in the school of very hard knocks. A professional football player, he starred as a defensive back in the CFL where his bone-crushing tackles earned him a reputation as one of the leagues’ hardest hitters. The highlight of his 11-year career came in 1994 when he won the Grey Cup as a member of the BC Lions.
“My style as a personal trainer is definitely rooted in my experience as a football player. If you work hard, we’ll get along. If not, you’ll probably wish we hadn’t met”, says Tommy.
Tommy’s good looks and tough athleticism have propelled him into the world of film, where he is emerging as one of Hollywood North’s elite stunt performers. He has performed in television shows and feature films such as Stargate and Scary Movie 4.
Sexy, savvy and sometimes just plain scary, Tommy Europe is the fitness trainer people love to hate and women definitely will love to watch.
