Our Story
Explore the SculptingYouStrong MultiSport's story, a journey of passion, perseverance, and the joy of unlocking athletic potential.
Filling the Void
Our founder Tushar has always been a passionate and dedicated athlete, starting from his college days. An athlete’s lifestyle soon became the very fabric of his identity, a ‘way of living’.
Tushar started his journey in 2006 with exploration of endurance sports such as long endurance trekking in the Shyadris, Rock climbing, and Maratha Martial arts. This soon evolved into a passionate pursuit of long-distance cycling, running, and the ultimate challenge of Triathlon.
While pursuing his journey and pushing boundaries as an active athlete, he encountered a stark reality – a huge gap in access to quality and scientific training for Triathletes and Runners in India.
He turned to fellow athletes with more experience for guidance. The idea was to learn from what they did right and how they tackled challenges.
However, he soon realized that this was a valuable yet imperfect source. The exchange was based on individual experience and accumulated wisdom of observation, often lacking the accuracy of a scientific approach.
The other source Google, with a limitless supply of information, proved to be overwhelming and confusing without leading to specific solutions.
The frustration grew, and Tushar realized that he was not alone! Many of his fellow athletes shared the same struggle.
The lack of personalized, scientifically grounded coaching resulted in frequent injuries, a lack of recovery strategies, and an overall sense of confusion for these athletes.
Many of them, disheartened, gave up their passion for an active athlete journey.
SculptingYouStrong MultiSport - A Solution Arises
The challenges faced triggered some deeper research and hard thinking on Tushar’s part. After all, he was not going to surrender and give up on his passion easily. On the contrary he decided to take the challenge head-on by being the solution himself.
He embarked on a transformative journey of becoming a scientifically trained coach and being the guiding light.
He armed himself with formal scientific training to become an Internationally Certified Coach for Triathlon, Marathon running, and strength and conditioning. Tapping into the wisdom of international experts, he became the embodiment of the solution athletes craved. After educating himself he spent more than 5 years researching the field of sports science by working with experts from various areas like Athletic Coaching, Strength and conditioning, nutrition, physiotherapy, sports science, masseurs & Biomechanics having some of international mentors working in the industry over 2 decades for athlete development of some finest athletes.
In 2016, SculptingYouStrong MultiSports came into existence with an endeavor to coach athletes through structured and scientific training. With this approach, SculptingYouStrong MultiSports aims to unlock every athlete’s latent potential in endurance sports such as Triathlon & Running.

About Head Coach
At the helm of SculptingYouStrong MultiSports is our esteemed head coach Tushar, an internationally certified coach in Triathlon and Running and an athlete.
His journey traces back to 2006, where his pursuit as an endurance athlete began during college days, soon evolving as a way of life.
Beginning with trekking in the Sahyadris, rock climbing, and Maratha Martial arts, his adventurous journey extended to the rhythm of long-distance cycling, running, and the ultimate challenge of Triathlon.
In his own touching words, “Triathlons and mountains have taught me many things including survival, the essence of living, and the deepest respect for nature.”
As he traversed this journey, he experienced the joy of learning from his experiences and higher levels of energy in day-to-day life.
Amidst the corporate job demands, he faced the challenge of a hectic schedule, compromising on his fitness regime, eating habits, sleep, and overall well-being. Frustration started to increase as he could give little time to his beloved Triathlon.
He took a crucial decision of transitioning from a full-time corporate role to a full-time commitment to his passion of being a Coach. Not a single day goes without he pursuing his passion.
For him, sports isn’t just a recreational activity, it’s a way of life. He believes that staying injury-free, fit and healthy measures up to taking charge of one’s life.
Motivated by the transformative impact of sports on his own life, he embarked on a mission to share it with aspiring athletes. His coaching venture began as a conscious effort to give back to the community that shaped him.
In his own words,
“I have been living and breathing sports science for 8 years now and have spent many hours in doing a deep research in the field. Coaching is an art that requires an understanding of sports science. It’s a different profession from being an athlete. To excel in coaching, one cannot simply apply personal experience or Google knowledge to others.”
