Chad Hackler

Welcome to my little corner of Texan internet. My life's passion is helping others achieve breakthroughs in their life whether physical, mental or spiritual. I've been training professional athletes (NFL, NHL, NCAA) as well as weekend warriors/general fitness for almost 20 years. I also do relationship counseling (including marrying couples) and spiritual (Christian) mentoring. I enjoy pop psychology and utilize several strategies when introducing people to lifestyle and behavioral change.

I'm currently the director of The National Personal Training Institute [Dallas, Tx location]. We teach scientific principles of exercise and nutrition and concomitantly engage in the practical how-to's of training all aspects of fitness in a 6 or 12 month program.

Personally, I LOVE my wife, Shelley...I love making electronic music and listening to unique music (especially indie, Trance, and 80's New Wave music)...going to friday night movies...reading books that inspire. I LOVE football. Oh, and in case you were curious...Jesus is the most important influence in my life.
