    “I want to be more active for my family and make it back to Jamaica to climb all the way up the waterfall that I couldn’t finish last time”

  • Brandon

    Utah

    "As a new below-knee amputee, receiving a donated running foot gave me back something I thought I had lost forever—the ability to run. Thanks to the generosity of the Unified 5k and Less Leg More Heart, I was able to participate in a charity run—my first time running in over five years. I’m deeply grateful for their support and for helping people like me rediscover movement, hope, and purpose."

  • Andrew

    Pennsylvania

    “To have something [new running blade], it’s hard to put into words how much more beneficial to your quality of life it is. My goal is to qualify for the Boston Marathon…I have young kids, and I want to be active for them. I want to show them the kind of lifestyle and struggles that other people have overcome.”

AdaptX Education

  • Take this course! Most comprehensive collection of information to help understand Adaptive Fitness Training and proper certification given after a test of acquired knowledge. Connects you to others who have this focus as well. Good Stuff!!

    Roni Andrews

  • This program has been a great wrinkle to add to my development as a recreational therapist and professional. Adaptx should be a be a stable in the CTRS profession.

    Sean Sumner

  • The AdaptX Course was Fantastic! I have taken many online classes/certifications, but none that have been as well done and applicable as AdaptX. I feel much more confident in my ability to create an inclusive fitness environment and work with individuals in various populations.

    Nate Nester, MS, LAT, ATC

  • This was an amazing course that gave lots of practical knowledge as well as resources. I would highly recommend it for anyone in the training and medical field as it teaches best practices for all individuals regardless of disability.

    Karen Hurley, DPT

  • I can't recommend AdaptX enough! The content is comprehensive and evidence-based while still being taught in a digestible and applicable way. For trainers, PTs, OTs, adaptive PE teachers, etc. this course will push you to think differently about disability and how you can create the most inclusive environment possible for your clients!

    Sara Haberman, OT

  • The AdaptX course is great for all fitness professionals. The material that AdaptX provides is top notch. Highly recommended!

    EJ Whitney

  • Absolutely amazing course. Really in-depth detail and gives you all you need to know when working with people who are differently abled in the gym. Really enjoyed the person centred approach. People first always.

    Jodie Loveday

  • AdaptX has built an impressive program to help clinicians and trainers better adapt to working with different populations that are commonly underserved (underdosed, mismanaged, mistreated). It combines sound strength and conditioning principles, marries it with current population specific research, and arms you with best practices to improve programming with these populations. I would recommend this program for any clinician or trainer looking to better equip themselves to work with patients/clients with disabilities

    Kyle Denlinger, DPT, OCS

  • I loved the course. As a mom of a young man with autism and former special education teacher, I feel that everything is spot on, and presented in an informative way that isn’t too overwhelming. I really enjoyed the office hour presentations as well, it did not even feel like they were an hour long, the subject matter was so interesting.
