Rob Blair Commando Temple

Rob is the founder at the award winning Commando Temple. An Independent strength and movement facility built from scratch with one main purpose…To Remove pain…to make people as strong as a bear.

An Experienced Strength and movement coach with thousands of hours of direct client contact time.

Bridging the gap between conventional rehabilitation and getting strong!!

Military preparation specialist having worked with Royal Marines, Paras, 21 SAS, Fire Brigade, Police, Navy, Army, RAF, Body Guards and Close Protection.

No nonsense approach to achieving the desired goal. If you work with him and do your homework (There will be a lot of it) he will transform you!

Rob competes as an Athlete and has both world records and national titles.

Rob joined the Royal Marines in 2000 and spent eight great years working in a strong community of loyal, dedicated and resilient human beings.

“In 2006 I was loving life, feeding my need to learn, and becoming mean, lean and fighting keen! I THRIVED ON IT! However that year I suffered two prolapsed discs in my lumbar spine and shortly afterwards had spinal surgery at 24 years of age.

The life I had set up was diverted but I can’t stand negativity, laziness or procrastination.

THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE WASTES TIME AND DENIES US ALL OF LIFE’S ADVENTURES!

There was only one choice for me, I was hungry to get back on top, with zero excuses and pure focus! It may seem like a selfish act to some but I promised myself to NEVER be that guy to suffer from lack of strength…poor movement or ridiculed by pain!

Long days…many courses…lots of time learning, improving and bettering my position to deliver the very best educational systems for myself…and those I coach/train.

Today I run the award winning Commando Temple Gym and compete as an athlete able to manage my body and keep up with the young guns.

I am a results-driven guy and I enjoy working with people who have been struggling to overcome problematic circumstances or injury.

Who is Commando Rob?

Commando Rob is a no-nonsense, ruthlessly goal-driven strength and movement therapist that loves to compete and thrive! If you want to transform your life or simply turn into BEAST…Rob can help.
