It’s one thing to watch. It’s another thing entirely to feel.

This is why we don't just lecture; we have coaches experience movement with a simulated impairment, because that's where true understanding is forged.

Suddenly, it's not about "scaling an exercise," it's about rebuilding stability and power from a whole new center of gravity.

So Every BODY Can Move 👉👉 and squat🦿

ATA staff had the honor of leading a hands-on squat clinic for athletes with prostheses at the So Every BODY Can Move – Maryland Ability Day at the University of Maryland

Through movement, coaching, and connection, we saw firsthand what’s possible when inclusive policy and adaptive training come together

The SEBCM initiative has been powerful to be part of—and seeing the new prosthetic coverage law become reality in Maryland is just the beginning

🙌 We’re proud to celebrate the progress and partner with SEBCM to help get everyone the equipment they deserve and the fitness training they need!

Barbell lifts, skip rope, pull-ups... we don't skip anything! 💪

Versatility is the secret weapon. It's not just about adapting one movement; it's about making the entire workout limitless. Logan proving that skill and strategy make every exercise possible.

What are you crushing today?

"The best thing that ever happened to me is losing my arm." 🤯

That shift started at 14 with a simple command: Get that arm so strong you could punch through a brick wall! I became obsessed.

Fitness became the key to everything I wanted to do. Our mantra: It's just an arm. Go try it!

Ready for your obsession? Let's go!

We’re driven by 2️⃣ core beliefs

▪️Health is a human right
▪️We are stronger together

A healthy, active life should never depend on ability, diagnosis, or circumstance. Fitness isn’t a privilege—it’s essential to long-term health, independence, and quality of life

Community, connection, and belonging aren’t “nice to have”they’re foundational to happiness, resilience, and longevity

We exist to ensure adaptive athletes and people with disabilities have access to the knowledge, coaching, and environments they deserve…so everyone can move, train, and live fully.

Because inclusion isn’t charity
It’s how stronger, healthier communities are built!

Real talk: Gymnastics moves are the hardest when you can't see! 😩

My biggest struggle? Translating the cues! Coaches tell me one thing, but it takes my partner getting tactile—sometimes even slamming my hips forward on the muscle-up swing—for it to click.

It proves that repeating the same cue won't work. We need coaches to be adaptable and ready to get metaphorical because finding that perfect cue is the ultimate win!

We're live at the NYC Public Library Accessible Tech Fair!

Hanging with my colleague Emma to show off something huge: Peloton's TalkBack!

Accessibility shouldn't be a barrier. This software lets everyone—blind, low vision, hard of hearing—get the full, sweaty, curse-out-the-instructor experience! TalkBack literally reads out your metrics in real-time.

We're here spreading the love and making fitness accessible for all!

First time back in the gym? Let's go! 🔥

For many, this is their first step back after injury or illness. Our mission is pure: Empower them to feel comfortable and find a new love for fitness.

We show them how to adapt, but the real magic is seeing that moment they realize they are capable of more than they ever thought. That smile is everything.

"One minute. One arm. One leg. 26 pushups."

Back in 2017, ATA co-founder got an unexpected email from Reebok:
“Can you be in NYC in 2 days to break some world records?”
No time to prep. No clue what to expect
Just grit, belief, and a willingness to say yes!

Logan went on to crush 26 one-arm, one-leg pushups in 60 seconds and lift over 2,000 lbs in one-minute barbell cleans...all with one arm.

This was just the beginning of Logan proving that adaptive athletes don’t just belong in fitness… they set the standard!
