How Rob Hamblen, Founder of Be The Leap, Transformed His Life Through Fitness
Rob Hamblen isn’t just a business owner. He’s a world-class creative strategist and founder of Be The Leap, helping some of the most well-known global corporations, from Adidas to IBM, execute meaningful innovation.
But like many high performers, Rob found himself stuck in a cycle.
Deadlines. Zoom calls. Flights. Family. Repeat.
Something was missing.
He knew that without structure, energy, and physical vitality, none of the rest would matter in the long run.
So he made a decision that would change everything:
He joined Escapist CrossFit.
The Search for More Than a Gym
As a business owner and creative thinker, Rob wasn’t looking for just another place to “work out.” He was searching for a system. A method. A way to create consistency in the chaos.
He found that at Escapist.
What stood out to him wasn’t just the programming, but the Momentum Method, the approach we use to help every member install powerful habits, overcome setbacks, and build real autonomy.
Rob’s Words: “This Place Changed Everything.”
In a recent interview, Rob shared:
“Escapist has transformed my daily routine. I have more focus, more energy, and I’m showing up better for my team and my family.
It’s not about crushing workouts. It’s about having the mental clarity and physical capacity to perform at your best — every day.”
He even went so far as to say:
“If you’re a CEO or a leader, you need to be here. Don’t just invest in your company. Invest in the person running it…you.”
Why It Matters
Rob’s story is proof that fitness is not about six-packs or selfies. It’s about reclaiming time, energy, and confidence — so you can lead better, live longer, and love harder.
And we’re proud to have people like Rob in our community. People who show that the strongest leaders don’t just work hard —
They take care of themselves, too.
