I'm Zac Cupples, a physical therapist and movement coach. For 14+ years, I've helped people move better, hurt less, and train smarter. I've worked in private practice, the NBA, and online coaching.
My approach blends biomechanics, pain science, and fitness. We don't chase symptoms here. We fix the real problems.
My Background:
- DPT at 25
- Orthopedic residency and OCS at 26
- Started teaching and reviewing 100+ courses at 27
- NBA physical therapist with Memphis Grizzlies at 29
- Lead PT/strength coach for Iowa Energy (D-League) at 30
- Launched online coaching and Human Matrix seminar at 31
- Opened cash-pay practice in Las Vegas at 36
Today: I coach clients worldwide and run my Las Vegas clinic. My team shares the same mission: real, lasting results without gimmicks or endless drills.
Whether you want to move better, lift stronger, recover from pain, or stop feeling stuck, you're in the right place.
