Ste McGrath quit his job in teaching - and never looked back
Growing up in a deprived area of north Manchester, Ste McGrath was no stranger to hard work and resilience.
Initially enrolled in chemistry, Ste switched to sport science, driven by a newfound passion for fitness and personal training. Throughout university, he worked as a lifeguard and personal trainer, earning £9.50 an hour. Ste, from Failsworth, began picking up personal training clients to support his family, but his dual commitments soon led to an ultimatum from his school – give up personal training or leave teaching.
This period not only left Ste heavily in debt, relying on loans and credit cards to make ends meet, but also led to a dependence on prescription pain medication. Ste worked tirelessly, often from 4 a.m. to late at night, determined to succeed. “I grafted through that course, and we managed to go from zero to £50k in the first six months.”
With initial success under his belt, Ste knew he needed to scale his business. He rebranded his personal training venture and started mentoring other PTs.
