Atomic Athlete

Haley — aka — showed up to Atomic as a young woman in her early 20’s over a decade ago, and from the beginning she’s always been upper management.

While she’s a newer coach at Atomic, she’s been running her own personal training business for over ten years. This isn’t her first rodeo. It’s just the latest place she’s decided to raise the standard. Whether she’s coaching, training, raising a family, or managing the daily chaos of life, Haley somehow keeps all the plates spinning. One of those plates is Coach Raul, which appears to be a full-time position with mandatory overtime and no vacation days.

There is zero f**kery in Haley’s world. Within her first month of coaching at Atomic, she discovered that Raul hadn’t been paid in over a year because someone had successfully scammed Jake and Tod through an email scheme. Most people would have assumed there was more to the story. Haley simply looked at Raul and said, “Yeah, that sounds about right.”

People will tell you Haley is one of the nicest people they’ve ever met, and they’re absolutely right. She’s thoughtful, encouraging, and genuinely invested in the people around her. She cares deeply about her athletes, her craft, and doing things the right way. She’s the kind of coach who actually pays attention and gives a damn.

At home, Haley and Raul are raising their son, Xander. Raul remains convinced that the kid is destined to be six feet tall someday, which is a bold prediction considering both of his parents appear to have been forged deep within the Mines of Moria. Our money is on Xander becoming compact, durable, suspiciously strong, and completely unwilling to back down from a challenge.

Just like his mom.

Luckily there is a floor beneath the gas pedal, cause if there wasn’t, Rachael - aka - would have perished long ago.

Always smiling, always ready to drop the hammer, always rocking better abs than most the coaches, Rach is not only a cornerstone of our community, but an excellent human being.

Rachael, we’ve known you for over a decade, and even though we can never spell your name correctly, we’re proud to have you in our family, gym, and lives.

You’re a fu***ng legend...

Introducing Coach Zac(k) 2.0: The Upgrade You Didn’t Know You Needed

At Atomic, we believe in testing, failing, and making things better—training programs, life choices, even our coaches.

So meet Coach Zac(k) 2.0. Bigger. Better. Blacker.

Yes, he’s tall like OG Coach Zack. But that’s where the similarities end. OG Zack had the vibe of a porcelain ballerina—strong, yes, but dainty. Like if you squatted too loud near him he might chip.

Zac(k) 2.0? Not so much. This version looks like he was forged in a lab dedicated to speed, vibes, and hammies that could crack walnuts. He might not outlift OG Zack’s glory days, but he’ll definitely beat him to the finish line. Twice. Backwards. With a smile.

He runs for fun. He has a run club. He’s the kind of guy who jogs during his rest intervals just to “stay warm.” It’s honestly unsettling.

And while some might mistake him for a diversity hire thanks to his caramel swirl complexion and perfect curls, rest assured—we don’t hire based on looks (though his are objectively superior). We hire based on vibes. And this dude’s got ‘em. Tall. Goofy. High energy. Talks like a human motivational poster but actually means it.

So if you’re into fast coaching, good programming, and a little more melanin on your Monday mornings, come train with Coach Zac(k) 2.0
