ABOUT
HYBRID DAD
This is my story of resilience, reinvention, and redemption. My name is David Bateman and I’ve spent two decades navigating the realms of athletics, business, parenthood, and personal trials, emerging on the other side with more wisdom and a renewed purpose to be the best version of myself that I can possibly be. Like many of us, in my earlier years I thrived in competitive environments, driven by an insatiable passion for results and a relentless pursuit of excellence. I loved to push myself to the limit to see how far I could go.
I loved to push myself to the limits to see
if I could continue to get better.

ABOUT
HYBRID DAD
Welcome to my journey of resilience, reinvention, and redemption. My name is David Bateman and I’ve traversed the realms of professional athleticism, parenthood, and personal upheaval, emerging on the other side with a renewed purpose. In my earlier years, I thrived in competitive environments, driven by an insatiable passion for fitness and a relentless pursuit of excellence. Now I am in pursuit of my potential, seeking to become better everyday and help those around me do the same.
I learned to push myself to the limits and see
how much better I could become.
Life, however, took an unexpected turn as I found myself at the crossroads of family and career. Faced with the beautiful responsibility of raising and providing for five incredible children, I made the difficult decision to "temporarily" set aside my athletic pursuits. Little did I know that this hiatus would stretch for nearly 20 years and cause me to lose my sense of purpose and self worth in the process. Only after a nasty divorce rattled the foundations of my existence, did I recommit to rebuild my life, but this time, on my terms.
It was during this season that my dormant passion for fitness was reignited. I realized that true strength wasn’t just about physical prowess but also about mental and emotional resilience. Determined to establish a foundation of wellness for my new life, I delved into the world of fitness yet again and committed to a holistic approach to health and wellness, incorporating functional fitness protocols and a commitment to improving and maintaining cardiovascular health. I am now on a mission to help other busy dads fortify their foundations before the storms of life threaten to erode them. Together, we can build a legacy of strength, resilience, and well-being that stands the test of time for ourselves and our families.

Little did I know that this hiatus would stretch longer than anticipated. A nasty divorce rattled the foundations of my existence, leaving me to pick up the pieces and rebuild my life… this time, on my terms.
