Become a Charlotte Health Athlete™
Health Athlete Plan™
$29/month
The Health Athlete Plan™ is the official membership plan for Charlotte Health Athletes™.
It is designed for Black men who want more than information about health. It is for men who are ready to participate.
You do not have to already be healthy.
You do not have to be in perfect shape.
You do not have to be an athlete.
You simply have to be willing to consistently show up for your health.
One team. One membership.
Charlotte Health Athletes™ gives Black men an ongoing place to actively participate in their health with other men who are doing the same.
The Health Athlete Plan™ centers on four things:
Practice.
Huddle.
Participate.
Belong.
Your membership is designed to help make health more structured, social, active, and consistent.
What your Health Athlete Plan™ includes
Health Sports Practices™
Participate in scheduled Health Sports Practices™ designed to help you consistently show up for your health.
Practices may include:
Walk for Health™
Train movement, cardiovascular health, consistency, and brotherhood.
Strength for Health™
Train muscular strength, functional capacity, and physical resilience.
Eat for Health™
Practice healthier eating through shared meals, education, and community experiences.
Meditate for Health™
Train awareness, recovery, emotional regulation, and presence.
Pray for Health™

Connect for Health™
Strengthen the relationships, social connection, and brotherhood that support healthier lives.
Additional Health Sports™ Practices and experiences may be introduced throughout the year.
You aren’t expected to master everything.
You are expected to participate.
Health Athlete Huddles™
Because a team needs more than Practices.
Health Athlete Huddles™ are where the team comes together.
- ▸Connect with other Health Athletes.
- ▸Reflect on your progress.
- ▸Talk about what you are working through.
- ▸Encourage your teammates.
- ▸Learn from shared experiences.
- ▸Discuss upcoming Practices and events.
- ▸Stay accountable between activities.
The Huddle helps keep you connected to both your health and your team.
No one trains alone.™
Local events + experiences
Your Health Athlete Plan™ gives you access to designated Charlotte Health Athletes™ events, gatherings, and community experiences.
These may include:
- ▸Health Sports Practices™
- ▸Health Athlete Huddles™
- ▸Brotherhood gatherings
- ▸Educational experiences
- ▸Community health events
- ▸Team meetups

Each event listing will clearly identify what is included with membership and whether any outside expense applies.

Brotherhood + accountability
One of the most important benefits of joining Charlotte Health Athletes™ is knowing that your health no longer has to be an isolated pursuit.
Your teammates can:
- ▸Encourage you.
- ▸Challenge you.
- ▸Check in with you.
- ▸Practice with you.
- ▸Celebrate progress with you.
- ▸Keep you connected.
- ▸And remind you that your health matters.
Brotherhood is a health superpower.™
Community
Become part of a community of Black men choosing to make health a shared priority.
Members may be at different stages of their health journey.
Some may be working on weight.
Some may be working on strength.
Some may be focused on healthier eating.
Some may want greater consistency.
Some may simply want to stop trying to do everything alone.
But every Health Athlete shares one important commitment:
I am willing to participate in my health.
Accountability
Knowledge alone does not create transformation.
Participation does.
Consistency does.
Environment does.
Accountability does.
The Health Athlete Plan™ gives you recurring opportunities to show up, participate, reconnect, and continue.
The goal is not perfection.
The goal is consistent health participation.
What does a Health Athlete™ train?
Health is bigger than exercise.
A Health Athlete learns to become more intentional about the behaviors and experiences that influence his health and quality of life.
That may include:
- ▸Movement
- ▸Strength
- ▸Nutrition
- ▸Sleep
- ▸Recovery
- ▸Stress regulation
- ▸Mental and emotional well-being
- ▸Social connection
- ▸Preventive health participation
- ▸Consistency
- ▸Personal responsibility
- ▸Brotherhood
You are not joining because you have already mastered these areas.
You are joining because you are ready to start training them.

- ▸Become more physically active.

You don’t have to arrive healthy.
You have to arrive willing.

- ▸Lose weight.
- ▸Build strength.
- ▸Increase energy.
- ▸Improve your eating habits.
- ▸Move more.
