Executive Corner with Doug Bopst

Stick with the Winners –

Doug Bopst is an award-winning personal trainer, author, speaker and business owner. Those credentials and accolades are a result of his own transformation.  He is a former felon and drug addict, sentenced to years in jail due to his poor decisions. He chose to use that time locked in a small cell to beat his demons and reinvent himself thanks to a combination of faith, family and fitness. He is the author of two books:  “From Felony to Fitness to Free,” written to inspire people that they too can turn a negative into a positive and to make the most of their second chance.

He is currently working on his third book showcasing the unique stories, tips, and advice of many of the world’s most-inspiring sober individuals.
