Clinton Hunter Profile

Clinton Hunter, aka ”Coach Clint”, has had a passion and a talent for running and coaching since he was a teenager in Dawnview High School in Gauteng. Clint decided to coach the teams himself as there was no coach available for the school, and discovered that he loved helping other athletes to improve their performance and reach their potential. He excelled in 800m, 1500m, 3000m and Cross Country running and earned Eastern Transvaal colours for 800m and for Cross Country. He was captain of the Athletics and Cross Country teams and received full school colours for these. He ran club athletics for Germiston Callies and was coached by the brilliant coach, Steve Hollier. From Steve he absorbed a wealth of information and experience. Over the years he has incorporated Steve Hollier’s as well as other great coaches methods a into his own coaching methodolgy.

After school, Clint studied Exercise Science at the Institute of Fitness Professionals in 1994. He continued to coach athletes, even though this was not his primary occupation, as he still enjoyed helping others to reach their potential. During this time Clint has completed studies in Advanced Biomechanics, Functional Training, Strength Periodization and obtained his Personal Fitness Trainer qualification at IFP. His focus was to grow his passion for coaching into a full time occupation, which he has now achieved.
