27 years
in one neighborhood.
ADAPT is a training system, built in Beaverton and still here. Same address, same mission, same stubborn belief: your body can keep developing well past 40. Your movement is built to improve, not just to decline.
Four ideas
we won't compromise on.
One system, not a handoff.
Your PT and your coach aren't running separate programs. They work from the same assessment, the same plan, and the same movement principles. It's the same system across everything we do, so progress carries from one session to the next instead of starting over.
Long-arc, not quick-fix.
Twelve weeks of relief is fine. Decades of capability is the goal. People usually come in for an injury and stay for years, because we don't train around the problem, we restore better movement and reinforce it until it's how you live.
Built around where your body is today.
Seventy-year-olds rebuilding strength. Teens chasing scholarships. Stroke survivors learning to walk again. You don't have to keep up with anyone here. The system meets each body where it is, then moves it forward. We program for individuals, not averages.
Honest about what we can do.
When you need a surgeon, we say so. When you need to be patient, we say so. Pain is information, not a verdict, and 27 years has earned us the right to be straight with you about it.
Same address since 1999.
Built by athletes.
Run by coaches and clinicians.
