The topics that we cover include abuse, addiction, incarceration, depression, anxiety, health problems, loss of income, loss of employment.

Pete Holman is many things, a national taekwondo champion, a physical therapist, a certified strength and conditioning specialist, an international presenter, an author, and an inventor. You may wonder how one man can do so many things, but he is able to do all of this and more. Not only has he found the drive to do all of this, but he has done so at the hands of adversity, overcoming obstacles again and again.
Pete grew up in Colorado, and in 1997 he won the National Taekwondo Championship, leading the team to victory. In the same year he graduated from the University of Colorado with a degree in Physical Therapy. With this degree he started a career at the exceptionally renowned Aspen Sports Medicine Clinic. He then opened up his own private practice in 2001. He invented the TRX Rip Trainer, the Nautilus Glute Drive, and several other fitness products. He's worked with professional athletes and coaches from the MLB, NFL, NBA, UFC, the X-Games, and the Sun Energy1 Race Car Team. While doing all of this he found time to be a presenter for IDEA FIT, as well as writing for several other journals and websites. To this day he continues to invent, innovate, and inspire.
Pete believes that if we truly want something that we will go out and get it. Adversity in your life is what gives you strength, allows you to overcome, and what lets you know that what you want is worth getting. He believes that the best things in your life will come through hard work and sacrifice, and Pete has lived up to these words time and time again throughout his life.
