About
Hey, I’m The Power Coach Martize, founder of Checkmate Coaching.
For 18+ years I’ve helped busy professionals, parents, and high-performers transform not just their bodies — but their belief systems too.
My Checkmate method is simple: we don’t just lift weights — we lift what’s been weighing you down mentally. So you can win the game of life, not just look good for a season.
👉 How it works:
In-Person: I travel to you — you provide the gym (home gym, private studio, or commercial gym).
Virtual: Anywhere you are, we train live on Zoom. No fancy gym? I design smart, minimal-equipment workouts for real life.
Bonus: Every client gets Checkmate Mindset Coaching — so you don’t just sweat… you SHIFT.
This isn’t a bargain-bin bootcamp. I work with a handful of serious clients ready to invest in premium transformation.

Coach Martize has a great personality! I'm not completely new to working out, but so far I've worked out some muscles I didn't even know existed lol. This is my first experience with a personal trainer and so far so good.

I truly though I was in shape. Boy was I wrong! This trainer is very patient, professional, and keeps me laughing when I should be embarrassed not knowing how to do a push up lol. I leave training with a shirt drenched in sweat AND the burn of knowing I've had a great workout in my lower abdomen Everytime I leave my session. His pricings are reasonable as well. The neighborhood is quiet and safe. The facility is nice and tidy. I believe there is a youth mentorship program held there. Please give him a try!

Working out with Martize has been a pleasure and I look forward to it every week. He took the time up front to understand my goals, is very positive and encouraging. He is flexible and works around my crazy work schedule. This has been my first experience with a personal trainer and I would recommend Martize to anyone looking for a positive, knowledgeable fitness coach.

My Checkmate Coaching is a premium service designed for serious clients who want real transformation — body AND belief system. Rates start at $2,000/month with a 3-month minimum. This includes personal training, mindset coaching, and custom accountability. Exact pricing depends on your goals and frequency. Let’s talk to see if we’re the right match.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Step 1 — We connect for a quick call to see if we’re a good fit.
Step 2 — You pick in-person (you provide the gym) or virtua (visit website for virtual pricing).
Step 3 — I design your personalized workouts + mindset blueprint.
Step 4 — We get to work — lifting more than just weights. You get coaching for your body, habits, and belief system.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have nearly two decades of experience as a certified Personal Trainer and as a Mindset & Relationship Coach. I’ve worked with hundreds of people across all fitness levels, helping them break excuses and win in the game of life — not just in the gym.
