About the founder Coach Ladarius ‘Tank’ Hawthorne
The Trainer
As the founder of M.A.P Training, I’ve dedicated my life to helping athletes unlock their full potential—physically, mentally, and emotionally. My training philosophy is rooted in discipline, consistency, and individualized development. Whether it’s speed, agility, strength, or mental toughness, I tailor each session to meet the unique needs of every athlete I work with. I believe in pushing limits while building confidence, and I take pride in creating an environment where growth is not just expected—it’s inevitable.
The Mentor
Beyond sets and reps, I’m a mentor. I believe in developing the whole athlete—mind, body, and spirit. I challenge young people to think bigger, dream bolder, and act with intention. Whether it’s guiding them through adversity or celebrating their wins, I’m committed to being a steady presence in their journey. My goal isn’t just to build better athletes—it’s to help shape better leaders, teammates, and human beings.
The Former Athlete
Before I was a coach, I was a competitor. My athletic journey shaped the foundation of who I am today. From early mornings on the field to late nights in the gym, I lived the grind. I know what it takes to perform under pressure, to overcome setbacks, and to chase excellence. That firsthand experience fuels my ability to connect with athletes—not just as a trainer, but as someone who’s walked the same path. I bring that intensity and insight into every session, helping others rise to their moment.
The Husband and Father
Off the field, I’m a proud husband and father. My family is my anchor and my inspiration. They remind me daily why I strive for greatness—not just in my career, but in character. Being a father has taught me patience, empathy, and the power of example. I carry those lessons into my work, knowing that every athlete I train is someone’s child, someone’s future. I lead with integrity because I want my children to see what it means to live with purpose.
