I’ve been training with Mark for almost 3 months now, and honestly, I couldn’t have asked for a better coach! From day one, he’s been super supportive, knowledgeable, and genuinely fun to work with. Not only have I improved a ton physically, but I’ve also gained so much more confidence in myself. He knows how to push you just the right amount. Every session is challenging, encouraging, and full of good vibes!!

Mark has been my trainer for over 3 months now. I see him twice a week every week. My experience with Mark has been wonderful. He is encouraging and actively listens to my goals, concerns, and, most importantly, to me when it comes to my body. I have lower back issues, and having a personal trainer who is considerate of that is huge. There are days when I am physically unable to do certain exercises, and we work around that or modify things as needed. He is extremely positive and makes working out in the morning enjoyable, even on my hard days, which we all have. He pushes me to be the best version of myself and supports me and the goals I want to hit. He makes working out and nutrition feel extremely obtainable. I love working with him!

I’ve been working out for a while, on and off. However, since 2022 I have been consistently working out. I’ve done CrossFit, LA Fitness, then a bunch of group fitness classes. I was for, but I wasn’t STRONG! I wanted to be strong and couldn’t push myself enough to surpass that stage. Mark helped me get onto a program and get me there. I’m 3 months in and it’s been going great. To be honest, I was already strong to begin with, but I wanted to become stronger, and didn’t know how to get myself there. He got me there. I couldn’t have asked for a better trainer who doesn’t just train for the money, but makes training fun and overall less dreading. He has years of experience and I love to learn from him. You’ll get the most out of your buck, a therapist, a friend, a mentor, and a kick*ss workout! He’s reliable, communicative, hardworking, and is well rounded from younger athletes to helping older folks. Been very impressed by his work lately!
