The WHY
Haplete was born out of frustration with the current allopathic approach of the health industry. Every element of our healthcare system and preventative medicine is isolated and specialized, which is great for intervention purposes when people are already sick but is a terrible approach when it comes to getting people healthy and preventing disease in the first place. We are INTEGRATED humans. An isolated approach is not going to work if true health is what you are seeking. Look at where it has gotten us today. We are the sickest, fattest, most depressed we have ever been. The sad reality is most people who teach health are unhealthy. Our ‘authority’ figures have failed us. Very few people have the knowledge and practical experience of living a truly healthy, happy, and fulfilled life. I am tired of seeing people fail to achieve their dreams because of the lack of accurate and trustworthy information in the health and fitness space.
There is no one size fits all approach to health and fitness like our governing bodies have led many of us to believe. Each person is a unique puzzle to figure out and requires different movement prescriptions, nutritional practices and lifestyle adjustments in order to THRIVE. Haplete is here to put an end to putting band-aids on problems, and determine root causes to your problems and pain so that we can effectively resolve them.
Interconnection Between Happiness and Fitness
Haplete represents the intersection between happiness and fitness because the mind and body have (and always will be) interconnected. Only undertaking one area would be at the detriment to the other, which is why at Haplete we incorporate both in our coaching. The interplay between mind and body is remarkable. Your habits, emotions, and lifestyle directly impact your ability to alter your body composition (build muscle and/or lose fat). This is why we focus on more than just fitness. We focus on building a system of habits that make you happier, which, in turn, only benefits your ability to change your body composition.
On the other side of the coin, your health directly effects your happiness, and exercise is an essential component to being healthy. In fact, intelligently programmed exercise is the gateway to a better life. Not only does exercise make you happier but also training is an incredible opportunity to become more resilient and train yourself to overcome obstacles. It provides a controlled environment where you can overcome challenges, become a better version of yourself, and transfer that mindset to other areas of your life. Fitness is the foundation, but anyone who has pursued aesthetic goals knows they will never fully be satisfied. The fulfillment is the in the journey – the character building, habit formation, and positive lifestyle changes that occur along the way.
New Age of Personal Training
Haplete is pioneering a new age of personal training. One that encompasses the mind, body and spirit of the individual. At Haplete, we assess all elements of the individual in designing an exercise program. This is because effective personal training must focus on more than just movement. After nearly a decade spent working in the trenches of the health and fitness industry, it is clear that most people seek more functional, aesthetic physiques, and in order to get people to where they want to go effectively and efficiently, other critical aspects of life must be taken into account! Training provides the stimulus to change your body, but nutrition, sleep, lifestyle, stress management, and HAPPINESS are all critical factors that need to be accounted for as well if you want to maximize your results.
Haplete is designed to give you the tools, skills and knowledge to build your dream body, optimize your mind, and fuel your soul for the rest of your life! We want to help you find clarity on who you want to become and then embody your ideal self so you can actualize your potential and live your greatest life.

What Makes Haplete Different than other Coaching Platforms?
- Advanced Assessment Techniques
The most important aspect of the pre-training process is the assessment. If you are not assessing, you are guessing, so we use advanced methods learned from the CHEK Institute to get a comprehensive view of your body’s movement patterns. Dysfunction lowers your ceiling. This allows us to identify any muscular imbalances, mobility and stability issues and dysfunctional movement patterns that will directly impact your body’s ability to look, feel and perform optimally. This process ensures progress. And when you build off of a strong foundation you are far more likely to actualize your potential and prevent injuries, pain and issues down the road. We also collect a large amount of data into your nutrition, sleep, and lifestyle practices. You might be asking why this information is important to the formulation of an effective exercise or holistic lifestyle plan? The answer is we are as different on the inside as we are on the outside. We each have different ethnic, racial, cultural, and family backgrounds and all have different genetics. Stressors and stress reactions are different in each persons. What stresses you out, may not be stressful for me. These questionnaires and assessments allow us to identify where the stress is in your life, and to customize a program that brings your body, mind and spirit into balance.
2. Holistic Approach
A lot of fitness coaches and companies just focus on fitness, but we follow an integrated unique system that looks at all aspects of a person’s health and wellbeing, not just physical training. The body is a system of systems working in harmony. When one piece of the puzzle is operating sub optimally, it effects the entire machine. Personalized attention is spent on nutrition, mindset, lifestyle and habit formation, among other things. We work on helping people build a system of habits that make their lives more rich, happy, and fulfilling. Of course, when your fitness and nutrition are consistent, it opens up the opportunity to focus on deeper rooted issues that might be plaguing you. The allopathic, specialized approach is not working for humans, nature, or the world. We coach people to achieve TRUE health.
3. Emphasis on Mind-Body Connection
The difference between Haplete and other coaching services is the special attention placed on the happiness component of life. We focus on building a system of habits that leads to fulfillment and happiness in your life. These are unique to the individual depending on their situation and what they are ready, willing and able to do. Happiness plays a direct role in your ability to change your body composition. We work with people who aspire for fulfillment. We teach them how to use exercise, nutrition and lifestyle choices in a way that improves their physical and mental state.
4. Training Style
The first primary concern when undertaking any new client is addressing any postural issues or dysfunctional movement patterns through proper stretches, mobilizations and corrective exercises to restore your body back into balance. Length tension relationships between muscles direct posture, and poor posture leads to injury or progressive deformity. Dysfunctional movement patterns increase your chance of injury and lower your and aesthetic and performance ceiling. It is state of ideal posture that the musculoskeletal system will function most efficiently, which is why we prioritize it.
Once your body is functioning properly, we use a functional bodybuilding approach that blends functional movement patterns with traditional bodybuilding exercises that make you stronger, more stable, more mobile, and more aesthetic. We use periodized programs, progressive overload techniques, and effective exercises to maximize your efforts in the gym in a fun, sustainable, and evidence-based way. We help people build lean, muscular, athletic physiques while becoming a better all around multi-disciplinarian athlete. Our goal is to have you looking like a (natural) bodybuilder, moving like a soccer player, and feeling like a rockstar. The beauty in this approach is it is sustainable long-term. Let the thought of you being a fit-ass well-oiled 60 year-old machine inspire you.
