Best of Philly

2021 Community Fitness Leader

UliftU

Subversus Fitness owner Wylie Belasik founded this nonprofit with two missions: to prepare currently and formerly incarcerated Philadelphians to earn a living as fitness coaches; and then, with their help, to make exercise accessible to North Philly neighborhoods with the highest rates of chronic disease and lowest life expectancy in the city. He’s succeeding on both fronts.
