Benton Lewis, MA, RSCC
Founder & Readiness Coach
“By day, I advise U.S. Army personnel and the integrated teams executing the Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) system. My role bridges doctrine and delivery—aligning day-to-day performance support with soldier-centered, autonomy-driven models of readiness.
By night, I coach prepared civilians to meet the physical demands of austere and operational environments. My education-based approach integrates movement science, performance psychology, and post-structural ethics to deliver sustainable performance in civilian defense settings.
My practice draws on extensive experience with H2F and its foundational doctrine, the DOD’s Total Force Fitness (TFF) framework, as well as military Human Performance Optimization (HPO) research and interdisciplinary readiness models. I support professionals seeking to move beyond legacy training systems toward adaptive, mission-aligned, and scalable approaches to human performance.
I am currently pursuing National Board Certification in Health & Wellness Coaching to align my scope with the Department of Defense’s position on holistic, force-wide performance solutions.”
