Meet Danny Arnold of Plex in Southwest

Today we’d like to introduce you to Danny Arnold.

Danny – kick things off for us.  Where does this story start?
Over 15 years ago, as I played collegiate sports, like most, I suffered numerous injuries, which lead to several surgeries. With those surgeries, two things happened, my training stopped and I started physical therapy. My only option of therapy, which is still common to this day, was at a traditional physical therapy center alongside individuals that have nothing to do with sports, or far less, people who being active is not a priority. The sad thing was, this wasn’t just happening to me, it was very common among athletes (of all ages and skills) and active people. After my collegiate career in football and track, and a short stint at the pro level, I coached for a few years in football and track. But similar to my experience in the therapy world, I felt that there wasn’t much progression in the performance world, so I decided to venture on my own, to begin Plex.

Over 15 years later, Plex is considered by many, the industry leader in human performance offering the highest level of integrated and innovative sports medicine & training for anyone regardless of age, sport or skill level. With a proven track record of over fifteen years, Plex programs have helped to power thousands of individuals, from Super Bowl Champions to Olympic Gold Medalists, to young athletes just learning to play their first sport, to thousands of executives who still have a youthful passion and desire for overall health and wellbeing.

Equipped with a nationally recognized staff of performance specialists, physical therapists, athletic trainers, doctors, chiropractors, coaches, Gyrotonic instructors, and former collegiate and professional athletes, Plex brings together a wide array of services to enhance and improve your total physical wellbeing. Whether you are an athlete trying to get to the next level, a patient recovering from orthopedic surgery, an injured weekend warrior, or an executive athlete looking to address the effects of mental stress and physical challenges of the business world today, Plex has a customized solution to help you rise to the next level.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
If you experience a smooth road, then you’re just following something that has already been accomplished. Just like in the woods, if you want a smooth trail, follow the one that has already been made, but if you want to be cutting edge, innovative, you’ll have to make your trail yourself, and that will have its set of bumps and bruises. The sports performance and sports medicine is far from being understood, so you have to explore a lot of new ideas, and that makes the ride tough. But fun too!

What sets Plex apart from others?
Here at Plex we do not make decisions based on revenue, we make them on performance. Many others can’t say that. And our clients see that, and that is why they keep coming back, over and over.

Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
Don’t really believe in luck. Timing, opportunities, knowledge, and desire play a larger role for us.
