BIO: Rob Eastman-
Rob Eastman | Life Coach l Speaker
I started Eastman Fitness & Wellness with the only goal of changing lives.
I’ve been in that dark place, i’ve been on the dark side of addiction and I’m not here to tell you it’s easy. I’m here to help and guide you to the other side, by your side.
Fitness for me became more of my journey in my recovery. Since then I have placed top 150 at the 2012 World Championship of obstacle racing, ran over 13 ultra marathons, and started fighting in MMA & Boxing at the age of 35. In April 2017 I went to Mt.Everest Base Camp.
Whether speaking to a small group of ten or a crowd of thousands, I have been invited to many schools and events for my motivational speeches which include personal story of bullying, mental health, religion, suicide, and addiction. Places include but not limited to: National Rotary Convention, Utah State University, Utah P.E. and Health Teacher State Conference and many more.
I can help you develop the mindset and strategies to dig yourself out of any situation or take your life to the next level.
