In the Spotlight with Andrew Kaplan
Health is wealth. Lots of famous people have put their own spin on that phrase (for example, Gandhi!) I guess that means that my job title should change from Personal Trainer to Wealth Management Advisor!
Andrew Kaplan is a true Wealth Management advisor. In January 2014, he realized that middle age was fast approaching. His job, which he loves, requires that he spend a large portion of his day sitting down. His back was hurting, his posture was poor, and he didn’t have the energy he once did.
Knowing that he had to get in shape, he researched different options. Eventually, his friend told him about Vertex Fitness. He was immediately drawn to Vertex because of the personalized service with attention to detail, the structured workouts that only take thirty minutes, and the overall cleanliness of the studio.
After only one year with the program, Andrew reports great results! By focusing on improving his strength, his posture is better which led to feeling less pain in his back. His golf swing is stronger and his drives are longer. Most importantly, he now worries about his kids keeping up with him and not vice versa!
Andrew is a fantastic Vertex client and provides more evidence that safe, efficient, effective exercise can be a boon for anyone.

Driven by knowledge and results both, while a strength coach at Villanova University, he worked closely with world class athletes such as Brian Westbrook, formerly of the Philadelphia Eagles, on strength training and conditioning for optimal performance. Dwayne’s client base extends much further than world class athletes. Along with athletes, he works with adolescents to seniors, and he’s a highly acclaimed and sought out personal trainer who has received numerous awards, such as Best of the Main Line Personal Training Studio and Best Main Line Personal Trainer. A graduate of Missouri Western State University, Dwayne has a Bachelor of Science degree in Physical Education, with an emphasis in Coaching. Aside from personal training, he’s spent time as a physical education teacher, strength and conditioning coach, and a football coach, but has found his passion and home in the fitness industry, inspiring and reaching out to others. As a strong believer in continuing to learn, Dwayne has also taken classes at East Stroudsburg University toward a Masters Degree in Sports Management. He can add author to his list of accomplishments, having created a chapter in the upcoming book The Soul of Success with Jack Canfield, renowned for the Chicken Soup series. To get to the point where he is now, Dwayne has always been thankful for the support of his father, a man who always believed in his mission and saw the need for what it was that Dwayne envisioned. During his free time, Dwayne is an avid motorcyclist who enjoys viewing the amazing landscapes and finding good restaurants to enjoy that are off the beaten path. He also takes advantage of opportunities to travel and experience many other cities while attending fitness seminars and giving presentations about the industry he is so passionate about. As a way to give back to the community that has been a part of his entire life, Dwayne has created Vertex Fitness PUMPED (People United Making Progress through Education and Donations), which provides support to area non-profits through a community-wide outreach effort. At this time, they help three non-profits per year in the Philadelphia area. For more information from Dwayne, you may contact him at (610) 525-6604, dwayne@vertexfit.com
