In January of 2014, David Vobora, a 5-year veteran of the NFL, met US Army Staff Sergeant Travis Mills, a quadruple amputee. David opened up his personal gym to Travis, offering his training expertise. The pair started working out together, customizing and adapting to the unique challenges posed by Travis' injuries. Through working with Travis and engaging the veteran community, David developed a passion for helping those with life-altering injuries find life-fulfilling adaptive performance training. At ATF's training center in Dallas, Kate and Chaps spoke to David and ATF's Colin Anderson about their passion for helping veterans overcome the obstacles that face them as they recover from serious injuries. Chaps and Kate also talk about their day at a dog training facility, and Chaps tells a story that almost makes Kate puke!You can find every episode of this show on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or YouTube.
