The Mission

Every young person deserves a coach.

The most formative years of your life shouldn't be the ones you spend figuring it out alone.

The Problem

The gap no one talks about.

Why do only the elite have executive coaches?

CEOs have advisors. Pro athletes have performance coaches. Fortune 500 leaders have entire teams dedicated to their personal development.

But the people who need guidance the most? Teenagers. Young adults. The ones in the middle of the most formative years of their lives.

They get told to “figure it out.”

The Solution

The executive coach for every young person.

You.Prjct is a system for building your mind, your body, and your discipline — structured like the best performance programs in the world, accessible to anyone with a phone.

Not another habit tracker. Not another to-do list. A personal development system that meets young people where they are and helps them become who they're meant to be.

The Vision

Three pillars. One mission.

Personal excellence at every level — from your phone to your school to the field.

Pillar I

Where This Started

A lifting club in high school.

Harrison and Henry Schertzinger started a lifting club in high school. What happened surprised them.

Young guys who walked in uncertain walked out different — not just stronger, but more confident, more disciplined, more connected. It wasn't the weights that changed them. It was the structure, the accountability, and the fellowship of shared work.

That experience planted the seed: what if every young person had access to this? Not just the ones lucky enough to find it, but everyone?

You.Prjct is that seed, scaled. The lifting club became Cincinnati Lacrosse Academy. The academy became You. First Elite Lacrosse. And the philosophy became an app.

Same mission. Bigger reach.

We're building more than an app. We're building the platform where personal excellence lives — where you earn your presence, where who you are matters more than what you post, and where a generation learns that the most important project they'll ever work on is themselves.

Why Now

The world is changing. Fast.

AI can write. AI can code. AI can create. So what makes you irreplaceable?

In a world where machines handle information, the edge isn't knowledge. It's character. It's adaptability. It's the ability to lead, to show up, to create something that only a fully realized human can create.

Personal excellence isn't optional anymore. It's survival.

The next generation doesn't need another productivity hack. They need a system that builds the kind of person who thrives no matter what the world throws at them.

What AI can replace
Information recall
Content creation
Data analysis
Routine problem-solving
What AI can't touch
Character
Adaptability
Creativity
Leadership
Discipline
The ability to show up when it's hard

In a world where AI can create anything, the only moat is who you are. We're building what AI can't replace.

“We need to make personal excellence cool again.”
Who This Is For

If this sounds like you.

Young Athletes

You're competing on the field and building who you are off it. You want structure, not lectures. You want to be great — and you're willing to work for it.

18–26

High Performers

College athletes. Young professionals. People who refuse to coast. You know what discipline looks like — you just need a system that keeps up with your ambition.

All ages
