Garth High is a husband and father of two. He grew up in the Northern Suburbs of Cape Town, as one of three boys, competing on various sporting fields. In spite of multiple injuries in his semi-professional rugby career, Garth maintained his prowess in physical fitness by joining the CrossFit community as a competitive athlete and coach. He went on to open his own CrossFit facility in 2012, which later grew to include two more facilities under a flourishing FitBox banner. 

In 2024, he joined forces with Dr Ben Coetsee and Neil Richardson to launch an educational podcast with the aim of providing widely accessible, up to date knowledge on current topics in the health and wellness space.  

Garth has since stepped back from coaching full-time to invest his time and expertise into helping individuals excel in every aspect of life, including partnering with companies to educate their staff on health and promote well-being. 

A qualified mechanical engineer, with four years work experience in the industry, Garth now wishes to share his hard-earned knowledge with others, equipping them to better tackle the demands of everyday life.
