About the Speaker:
David Vobora is a five-year veteran of the NFL. He was “Mr. Irrelevant” (the last pick) in the 2008 NFL Draft. Rather than being discouraged, he relished the opportunity to prove doubters wrong – just as he had as an Idaho Vandal standout football player for four years.
Upon retiring from the NFL, David opened Performance Vault, a for-profit gym that offers individual and customized performance training to elite athletes. David met Travis Mills in January of 2014. Travis is a retired United States Army Staff Sergeant and quadruple amputee. The two began working out together, and the unique challenges that Travis’ injuries posed in the gym ignited a passion for David to offer adaptive performance training to individuals who have suffered life-altering injuries.
By working with Travis and many other critically injured veterans, David recognized a void in the recovery process. When a person gets injured, they are treated at the hospital and go through rehabilitation, but where do they go to continue their recovery while defining the recalibrated-self?
ATF fills this void. Adaptive Training Foundation was established to restore hope through movement to those with physical impairment by creating opportunities for adaptive athletes to train and compete. ATF is not rehab. ATF is designed to provide quality, individual and customized training that will help each athlete create a sustainable lifestyle change.
In September 2014, the Adaptive Training Foundation became 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, to allow outside support for these ambitious participants. The program now offers a nine-week intensive training to restore, recalibrate and redeploy these athletes to inspire others to achieve the impossible.
