Align Athletics

Youth Summer Camp Week ONE down!! These athletes have been crushing it! 💪🏼 🔥

June Athlete of the Month! Align asked me to share how their trainers helped me return to working out without fear of reinjury. And honestly, this story needed to be told.
This is my journey. And it has been quite a ride.
Two major surgeries in 2021 and 2022. A broken back in 2023. A plantar fascia tear in 2024. A minor surgery in 2025. And back surgery just seven months ago. Every time life knocked me down, I had to find the courage to start over.
But the most unbelievable moment? One month after breaking my back, I was having dinner on a work trip in Temple, TX when a Lexus SUV plowed straight through the restaurant wall. It shoved me, my dinner, and shards of plate glass to the middle of the restaurant. I walked out with 9 stitches above my eye and nothing else. I still can’t believe I walked out at all.
And through all of it, I kept coming back to Align. Every single time.

Here’s why no other gym checks all the boxes for me.

Expertise. I came to my trainers armed with guidance from my Orthopedic surgeon, PT, Chiropractor, and Primary Care MDs. They took every bit of that information seriously and built sessions around it, making sure every movement and every weight made sense for where my body actually was in its healing. In both small and large group settings. That’s not something you find just anywhere.

Culture. I have never walked into a gym that felt this genuinely caring. Nobody judges. Nobody thinks less of you for asking for a modification or lifting lighter. That environment is what gives me the confidence to walk back through that door every single time, even when it’s hard.

Variety. No two workouts are ever the same here. The programming follows current trends in training, intentionally targets different muscle groups, and keeps your body guessing in the best possible way. I never dread walking in wondering if it’s going to feel stale, because it never does.
Align hasn’t just made me stronger physically. They’ve helped me become a better version of myself, physically, mentally, and spiritually.
If you’ve been sitting on the fence after an injury or a hard season of life, I see you. This community is worth it.
