Trained To Go (or T.T.G.) is a street gang operating in the Birmingham area.

A gang by that name is known to operate in the Atlanta area, where it is considered a set of the Bloods. The name of the group, indicating preparedness for a fight, is referenced in a 2010 single by Atlanta rap artist Waka Flocka Flame (who had a high-profile feud with Gucci Mane). Gangs using that name have also been reported in North Carolina, but no affiliation is known.

Five teenaged boys allegedly involved with the gang were charged with a crime spree in Bessemer on October 5, 2015, including the robbery and murder of Leon Slay.
