Welcome Message from Our Founder
Hello, I’m Waynel Hubbardolly, founder of Make Athlete Action, and I’d like to personally welcome you to this platform. From a young age, I’ve been deeply passionate about sports, fitness, and the science behind human performance.
Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with athletes at all levels, helping them unlock their full potential by blending the latest in sports science with practical, actionable advice.
My goal with Make Athlete Action is simple: to create a space where athletes and fitness enthusiasts, like yourself, can access reliable, science-backed information to improve performance in a sustainable and meaningful way.
My Journey
My love for sports started early in life. Growing up, I was immersed in a variety of activities, from soccer to track and field, but what really intrigued me was how and why certain training methods worked.
I was always curious about how specific exercises or diets could impact performance, and that curiosity naturally evolved into a deep interest in sports science.
I found myself constantly reading up on muscle physiology, biomechanics, and the latest training techniques, eager to understand how every aspect of athletic performance could be optimized.
To further my knowledge, I pursued a degree in Kinesiology, and later specialized in Exercise Science. These academic experiences gave me a strong foundation in understanding how the body works, how it responds to training, and how we can fine-tune performance through proper conditioning, recovery, and nutrition.
I didn’t stop at the physical side of things, though. I became equally fascinated by sports psychology, and how the mind plays a crucial role in achieving peak performance.
From Trainer to Founder
After graduating, I started my career as an athletic trainer, working with a wide range of athletes—from professionals aiming for the top of their game to everyday individuals looking to improve their fitness.
It was during these early years that I noticed a gap: while there was a wealth of knowledge in sports science, much of it wasn’t accessible or easily applied by the average athlete. So much of what I learned in my studies wasn’t reaching the people who could benefit from it the most.
That’s when the idea for Make Athlete Action was born. I wanted to create a platform that bridges the gap between scientific research and practical, real-world application. I envisioned a space where athletes at any level could come to find trusted advice on improving their strength, endurance, mental focus, and nutrition—all based on the latest findings in sports science.
My Philosophy
Throughout my career, I’ve always believed in a holistic approach to athletic development. It’s not just about how fast you can run or how much weight you can lift; it’s about understanding your body and mind as a complete system.
My approach focuses on developing strength, mobility, flexibility, and most importantly, the mental toughness that helps athletes push through plateaus and setbacks.
- Holistic Athlete Development: I believe every athlete is unique, and that means their approach to training should be personalized. Whether you’re building endurance, increasing strength, or fine-tuning your nutrition, the key is to find what works for you.
- Science-First Mentality: I’ve always been committed to grounding everything in the latest sports science. From the articles we publish to the workout strategies we share, you can trust that everything comes from a place of solid research and proven results.
- Mental and Physical Synergy: In my experience, physical performance is deeply connected to your mental state. That’s why I focus not only on strength and conditioning but also on sports psychology, which includes improving focus, motivation, and resilience. I believe that if you build mental toughness alongside physical strength, you can truly unlock your potential.
What I’m Focused On Now
Running Make Athlete Action keeps me busy, but I still make time to work directly with athletes. I serve as a performance coach, helping both up-and-coming athletes and seasoned pros with their training programs. I’m also deeply involved in mentorship, working with high school and college athletes to help them navigate the pressures of competitive sports while building healthy habits that will serve them for life.
It’s important to me that I remain connected to the athletic community. I often speak at events about the latest advancements in sports science and mental performance, and I love sharing insights with anyone who’s looking to take their game to the next level.
What Inspires Me
When I’m not working or developing new content for the platform, I’m still out there practicing what I preach. Fitness is a big part of my life, and I make sure to integrate a combination of strength training, cardio, and mobility work into my own routine. I also prioritize mental health, practicing mindfulness and meditation to stay balanced.
I draw a lot of inspiration from athletes who’ve exemplified greatness not only in their physical abilities but in their mindset as well. Athletes like Michael Jordan, Serena Williams, and Kobe Bryant remind me that success comes from more than just physical strength—it’s about grit, passion, and perseverance.
Looking Ahead
I’m incredibly excited about the future of Make Athlete Action and how we can continue to help athletes achieve their goals. My vision is to keep expanding the platform, incorporating even more resources for all types of athletes. Whether you’re a professional athlete or someone looking to improve your health, I’m here to ensure that the tools, insights, and guidance you need are just a click away.
If you’re looking to take your athletic journey to the next level, I’d love for you to explore our resources or get in touch with me directly. Make Athlete Action is more than just a platform—it’s a community of people committed to pushing the limits of human potential.
Thank you for being part of this journey, and I look forward to helping you achieve your best.
