Appreciation post for Apollos Boxing amateur boxer and friend Tom Schaltegger ❤️
In November 2024 Tom came to Apollos for his FREE trial and told us he wanted to be an amateur boxer ❤️
At the end of the lesson he said “I will be back in January to get started” - we all thought that was the last we would see of Tom ❤️
Not only did he get his weight down massively he also improved his boxing skills and fitness in a short space of time having his first bout in Feb winning unanimous ❤️
But knowing Tom now we should of known he would be back ❤️
In just over one season Tom has had 12 bouts getting a couple of stoppages along the way and taking some losses that shouldn’t of been losses ❤️
One thing has never changed how hard he works and his attitude in the gym ❤️
In between all his boxing training and bouts he also ran a marathon and even jumped out of a place 😂
A true inspiration for anyone looking to become a boxer and someone we are lucky to call our friend ❤️
The guy won’t be stopped and we at Apollos are confident he’s going to winning titles in his boxing career ❤️
From MC’n and shadow boxing in kitchens in November 2024 to assaulting people - jumping out of planes and running marathons is a mad achievement plus dropping 15 KG all in less than two years ❤️
Proud to be part of this journey and cannot wait to see him smash even more goals this season ❤️
The man of many names including Tommy Schaltz - Ready Schalted - Coach Tom - Schalty Switch - the Schalty shell ❤️
❤️🇬🇷🐒
