Meet
Phil Kaplan
Humble
Beginnings to Worldwide Respect
In
the late 1970s, a young, enthusiastic Phil Kaplan
began his fitness career as a part-time instructor
at the Jack La Lanne Health Spa in New York—but
Phil’s willingness to learn and desire to improve
allowed him to quickly rise through the ranks.
With hard work and determination, he became National
Director for one of the largest health club chains
in the world. Never one to rest on success, and
eager to personally help more people, Phil began
his own personal training business and evolved
into a role model for Personal Trainers, and one
of the most sought-after fitness leaders in the
world.
The
Fitness Truth
For
over 20 years, Phil has been an advocate for the
fitness truth… a philosophy steeped in honesty,
accountability and integrity. A true watchdog
for the fitness industry, he’s gone up against
pharmaceutical and supplement companies, weight
loss experts, physicians, fat loss products, infomercials,
diet drugs and anyone making false claims regarding
fitness and nutrition. Through all the well-publicized
battles he’s fought as champion of the fitness
truth, he’s gone to extreme lengths to protect
his most valued attribute: his integrity. During
the course of his many personal fitness training
services, his Mind & Muscle Fitness Hour radio
show, his television appearances, and his groundbreaking
seminars, Phil has often exposed fraud and deception,
going after anyone spreading fitness falsehoods,
no matter their title or station. Touring North
America in 1996 promoting his TRANSFORM! program,
he boldly offered all of his services with an
unconditional money-back guarantee. When asked
about the guarantee in a television interview,
Phil said, “I encourage people to be skeptical,
I beg them to be apprehensive. I don’t want their
blind trust, I simply want them to recognize that
their past failures were the result of flawed
information, and if I can provide them clarity,
they’ll gain control… once and for all.” To
this day, all of Phil Kaplan's programs and offerings
are backed by an unconditional money-back guarantee
of satisfaction.
Passion
and Credibility
Phil’s
unlimited energy and passion for the personal
training industry have led him to be a guest on
over 1,000 TV and radio shows. He’s had over 500
articles published in periodicals and magazines
including Muscle & Fitness, Flex, Weight Loss
Surgery (WLS Lifestyles), and Personal Fitness
Professional, a publication which honored Phil
with its first-ever Lifetime Achievement Award
in 2007. Conducting seminars in approximately
26 cities each year, Phil’s appearances have touched
over 200,000 lives, and he speaks regularly in
his home region of South Florida. His Breakthroughs
seminar has attracted well over 50,000 people.
He's authored many visionary books and programs,
including Transform, The Best You've Ever Been,
EAT! Supportive Nutrition For The Body You Love,
and now presents his groundbreaking programs,
The 21-Day Journey to Excellence, and ALIVE.
After
two decades as a fitness leader with an army of
loyal, long-term students, and after receiving
myriad accolades and awards for success, integrity,
and empowerment, it's safe to say that Phil Kaplan
has stood the test of time. Yet in his words,
"you haven't seen anything yet!" His files are
filled with expressions of gratitude from people
all over the world, from every walk of life, who
found Phil’s truth to be inspiring, motivating,
and empowering. He continues working tirelessly
to help fitness professionals better their lives
by bettering the lives and bodies of others.
