I first heard Rob Grupe’s story on Matt Del Negro’s podcast 10,000 No’s (which you all should be listening to as well) and was amazed by his story and what he has been able to overcome.
Frankly, Rob’s story is a direct result of his own decisions as you will hear in the podcast. But through those mistakes Rob as taken ownership of them and has made a decision to learn from them and at the same time help others from what he’s learned.
Rob and I get into his life documenting his drug addiction and jailhouse stories but also what he’s been able to achieve since his release from prison. Here is his official bio…
Rob Grupe overcame several drug addictions and spent 7 years 6 months and 18 days in prison. After several near-death experiences while being over 300 pounds, health and fitness helped him turn his life around.
He started his journey as a personal trainer and worked his way up to now owning his own gym, Twice Bitten CrossFit.
Twice Bitten CrossFit is now the largest CrossFit gym in Oklahoma City, which happens to be one of the unhealthiest cities in America. Rob has already been able to help over 1000 people achieve health and fitness success through his gym, but he wants to do more.
Rob’s mission is to continually search for learning opportunities and experiences that positively change people's ways of thinking, inspire strength, desire, perseverance and motivation to have physical, emotional and spiritual breakthroughs.
Since being released from prison he has taken full advantage of his second opportunity at freedom…
To date Rob has helped his clients lose over 1000 inches and 4000 pounds and become the strongest healthiest version of themselves with each training session. He also has set a goal of impacting over 10,000 people's lives through health and fitness within the next year.
Rob Grupe spent 7 years in jail, learned from his mistakes and is now living, No Ordinary Life.
