About Ste Foster
Steve is a Strength & Conditioning Coach/Online Fitness Trainer that followed his passion after realising that what he was doing, was no longer fulfilling to him. A battle with cancer shifted his perspective on life and after initially struggling with depression he decided to take his life into his own hands.
As well as improving other peoples’ health, he also competes in CrossFit, he used to play high-level basketball and still enjoys pushing his limits to this day.
