60-year-old crowned ‘best trainer in the UK’ claims if he can do it, anyone can

Ged Musto was featured in the South Wales Argus in January 2024 after initially winning the award for the ‘Best Trainer in the UK 2023/24’ at the ‘Best of the Best’ awards, which he said he is “still taking it in”.

Ged Musto, now 60, is calling on others to follow in his fitness footsteps and said: “I’m hoping that I am seen as not just an inspirational trainer for others to follow but also a true pioneer, proof that you can also strive to be the top trainer in not just Wales but also the United Kingdom.”

Mr Musto added this about the monumental achievement: “being the first Welsh winner alone is something that cannot ever be replicated.”

He went on to say “if I can do it, anyone can!”
