Success Stories

"Robert comes from a corporate background and understands first-hand the stress employees and managers face in the workplace. We decided to have AlchemySD provide a training for our management team following our busy season this year. During the hour session we covered stress management and gratitude practices. Our staff found the session very refreshing and I found myself with some great takeaways. AlchemySD offers a unique perspective compared to others in his field, which is why I recommend him for businesses dealing with a burnt out workforce."

"We requested that Robert attend one of our Lead meetings to give our team a mental reset for the week. He did a wonderful job at covering topics relevant to our experience as working professionals, and each of us took away some useful tools to try on our own to combat stress, burnout, and practice mindfulness. The breadth of Robert’s knowledge in this space is wide, so I could see the power in having him run a longer program with your team because he has so much to cover if you only give him an hour."

"Personally, I left the session feeling uplifted, and recharged. Our team was grateful for a change of pace and an opportunity to focus on their health instead of the usual go, go, go. We will be looking for other ways to incorporate him into our team sessions."

I reached out to Rob to help me with my nutrition during the offseason.  Growing up in the Pelican State, great-tasting food has been a part of my culture since I can remember.  To be honest, I doubted that Rob would be able to put something together that would satisfy my taste buds for long, but I was dead wrong.  The nutrition plan he put together for me was easy to follow, included foods I love to eat, and best of all, it was effective!  Rob was able to align the nutrition plan and food intake with my busy schedule.  I occasionally reach out to Rob for nutritional advice and his responses are always timely and on point!

Did I mention they prepared my taxes too?!  They are affordable and charged way less than my prior CPA.  They even helped me get some money back that I was owed from 2014!  Alchemy SD is literally a one stop shop for all health, fitness and tax services.  Good lookin’ out!

When I met Rob Eyler I was arguably in the best shape of my life. I was a dual sport athlete in high school and continued that trend in college. When Rob and I were freshman I weighed a mere 160 lbs, with all of 7% body fat. I took pride in my body and in my training regimen. By the time we were seniors I posted a max of 285 lbs on bench and 405 lbs on squat, not bad for a 5' 7" 170 pound sprinter and wide receiver. However, as the college years ended, so did maintaining my physique. I quickly gained about 12 lbs in my first year of graduate school, and another 15 lbs in the following year. Before I knew what happened I was 197 lbs, my six pack was nonexistent at best, and I was noticeably out of shape. I began to exercise intermittently here and there when I found the time, but was only able to shed 4lbs within a year. I had a wake-up call when I went to see my doctor for a yearly physical and he informed me that my blood pressure was running high. I had never had blood pressure issues before in my life, and it was at that moment that I realized I needed to make a change.

Thankfully my great friend Rob Eyler was able to get me on track. We spoke about the fitness goals I wanted to achieve, and the type of lifestyle changes that I would need to make in order become the best possible version of myself. He structured a specific training regimen and meal plan to satisfy my unique goals. The work-outs were extremely tough and the meal plan was a difficult adjustment, but anything worth having doesn't come easy, so I stuck with it. Within my first month exercising five days a week and eating clean, I lost 8 lbs; double what I'd lost in the entire year before. At the end of my second month I was astonished to see that I weighed 180 lbs; a net loss of 17 lbs in 2 months. I'm currently into my fourth month weighing in at a solid 175 lbs, six pack returned, and muscle definition in places I didn't know could have definition. I'm extremely appreciative of Rob not only because he's been a great friend over the years, but because he helped me achieve the results I desired. Let me be clear, this is not a get fit quick scheme ,nor is it a diet to be done when one feels like it. What Rob offers is a lifestyle change. It will require hard work, dedication, and sacrifice, but the results you'll see are real and long standing. If you want to lose weight, gain muscle, increase endurance, build strength, and live a healthier lifestyle, then Rob is YOUR guy!
