Echelon Joins NFL Prospect Dillon Gabriel To Equip High School Training Facility
The partnership brings Echelon’s fitness equipment and facility improvements to Gabriel’s alma mater
Echelon Fitness has partnered with University of Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel—a top prospect in the 2025 NFL Draft—to donate its fitness equipment to the upgraded athletic training facility at Mililani High School in Hawaii, Gabriel’s alma mater.
A ribbon-cutting ceremony is scheduled for April 22 and builds on Gabriel’s previous donations of jerseys and gear.
“Growing up in Mililani, I was shaped by a community that believed in me and supported my journey in football and in life,” Gabriel said. “Partnering with Echelon Fitness to enhance the athletic training room at Mililani High School is my way of giving back to the place that helped me become the person and athlete I am today.”
Gabriel noted that Echelon’s donation of high-quality fitness equipment will transform the space into a “more functional and inspiring environment for Mililani’s student-athletes.”
“This project is about honoring the legacy of Mililani High School while helping the next generation of student-athletes reach their goals,” he added. “I’m grateful to Echelon Fitness for sharing this vision and partnering with me to create opportunities for these young athletes to thrive.”
Other facility enhancements are planned, including deep cleaning and fresh paint.
“At the heart of our mission is providing the tools and technology that empower individuals to reach their fitness goals, all while ensuring an engaging and motivating journey along the way,” Echelon Fitness CEO Lou Lentine said. “We’re thrilled to work closely with Dillon to inspire the next generation of athletes and fitness enthusiasts.”
In addition to serving student athletes, Echelon is preparing to launch a generative AI-powered fitness platform to deliver personalized workout experiences, following a new partnership with Amazon Web Services—a move that could boost gym member retention by at least 7%, according to early testing.
