54: Perry Agass in the hot seat

I’ve spent over 15 years working at the top level of endurance sport, coaching and developing European and world champions, and running a professional triathlon squad based in Cyprus. My background spans football, boxing, athletics, and triathlon, and I’ve also worked as a life coach and motivational speaker.But what really makes my story different is this:In 2011, I suffered a serious cycling accident that left me with a brain injury. I was told I might never walk properly again. I experienced memory loss, speech issues, and extreme chronic fatigue to the point where even walking a few metres was a struggle.12 months later, I completed a full Ironman.That journey completely reshaped my mindset, my approach to performance, and how I now coach others. I went from rebuilding myself step by step — starting with 10 minutes of walking — to pushing beyond limits most people wouldn’t even attempt.I’m also a world record holder (12 hours chest-to-floor burpees), and I’ve built my coaching philosophy around one core belief:We are all capable of far more than we think — if we’re willing to do the work and stay in the fight.I think your audience would take a lot from:• Overcoming adversity and rebuilding from rock bottom• What elite performance really looks like behind the scenes• The mindset required to push past limits• Coaching insights from working with world-class athletesMy website is perryagass.com
