Donovan Hollis Headshot

 Donovan Hollis is from Melissa Texas which is where he currently lives with his girlfriend and new born son. Donovan was a Army Ranger Specialist until 2012.

 

 In November of 2015, Donovan was riding his motorcycle in Fort Benning, GA when a deer jumped out from the trees and hit him. Donovan was thrown into a ditch which resulted in the loss of his right leg and a fracture in his back. 

 

His goal is to strengthen his core and to add workouts to his regiment to end his fitness plateau. Donovan is an avid fisherman and very big into fitness, biking and lifting weights regularly. He is a hard worker and will do anything if you tell him “no balls you wont”.
