Dolvett Quince

Dolvett Quince (born August 20, 1973) is an American entrepreneur, fitness model, actor, and personal trainer. He became widely known for his role as a trainer on the American version of The Biggest Loser from season 12 to season 17.

Early life Dolvett Quince is from a family of four children, all of whom were adopted. They were eventually placed into care to transition with a Jamaican couple. He credits his social worker and the couple for not splitting up the family. In an interview with Uptown Magazine in 2013 entitled "All Eyes on Dolvett Quince", he said,

"My adoption was bittersweet, because I had parents who were loving enough to [adopt] four strangers." "That’s a beautiful story, however, they’re very old school with a ‘you spare the rod, you spoil the child’ sort of mentality. So they only knew what they knew– and that was to beat it out of me." "I’m only in the position that I’m in now because that experience gave me a voice at a very young age. […] And with that strength, I’m able to help the underdog. The weaker person, the woman, the child, the obese person, the athlete that can’t get all the way to the finish line because I understand," he spoke in a soft tone. "I understand what it’s like to still believe in yourself when no one else believes in you and to push that out of someone."

Career Quince got his start working at an Atlanta YMCA. In an interview with Parade Magazine he cites his interactions with the people from the YMCA as a catalyst for fully pursuing personal training. He began to build a celebrity clientele including Angela Bassett, Janet Jackson, Bert Weiss, Boris Kodjoe, Nicole Ari Parker Michael Jai White, and Justin Bieber.
