ABOUT US

Atlas Training Solutions was founded by Luke and Will following 16+ years of cumulative military experience and 15+ years of Special Operations experience. Luke and Will both forayed into coaching a few years ago, and struggled to find organizations made up of accomplished and down to earth coaches focused on bettering their clients above all else. 

Luke, in his time as a platoon leader and executive officer, and Will during his time on Special Forces Teams and training Special Forces officers, realized the force as a whole lacks ability and knowledge in the endurance space. Atlas Training Solutions focuses on endurance as the cornerstone of military fitness, and builds well-rounded and capable athletes based off this cornerstone by adding common-sense strength and work capacity events. 

Atlas Training Solutions will do everything we can to give you the best product possible, making you an asset in whatever it is you do day to day (family, military, fire, police, mountaineering, etc). Because of this, we brought on Dr. Parker Hyde, CSCS, an expert in the field. He is an invaluable asset to the team that will ensure how we arrive at performance outcomes will always be based on science and current best practice. 

The key values we hold close are: authenticity, care for our athletes, and an unrelenting pursuit of betterment in all realms.  

Further, Faster.
