I’ve been training with Marcus for a full year now, and I can genuinely say he has changed my life. When I first started, it was right after knee surgery, and I had little confidence in my body or my ability to work out again. Thanks to Marcus’ knowledge, patience, and encouragement, I not only regained full function in my knee, but I’m now stronger, healthier, and 30 pounds lighter.
Marcus is the perfect mix of funny, caring, and motivating. He knows how to push me without ever making me feel overwhelmed, and he always keeps our sessions fresh by mixing up the routine so it never gets boring. He has an incredible ability to read the room—he’ll sense when I’m stressed and jump right into supportive conversation or coping strategies that help me refocus.
Most importantly, Marcus has given me my confidence back. He has empowered me to take true control of my health, and I am beyond grateful for everything he has helped me achieve. Lastly, I was truly honored to have him present for my Army promotion over the summer. At times, I often doubted if I could continue serving my Country due to all my injuries. Marcus never gave up on me and inspired me to never give up on myself.
If you’re looking for a trainer who is dedicated, uplifting, and genuinely invested in your success, I cannot recommend Marcus enough!!

Marcus has been a life-changer for me. I’ve been working with him for over a year now and am down over 50lbs and looking like how I looked a decade ago. He’s never been late, never failed to motivate me, and never made me feel bad about myself for failing an exercise. He will personalize your routine around your ability level and individual needs. Most importantly, his passion for helping people with their physical goals is contagious, and he motivated me to finally shed my lazy habits and live a healthy lifestyle. I hope to continue working with Marcus for a long time to come.

Marcus was a great personal trainer for my son. He help my son with his speed and ability to run faster. Marcus was very affordable with pricing and my son really enjoyed his time and training. I would most definitely recommend Marcus to anyone that’s looking for a personal trainer and coach

He was always professional, punctual, and tailored each session to my needs. I would highly recommend Marcus to anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable personal trainer. Thanks again for all his hard work and support!

Working with Marcus is definitely what I needed. He put me on the right track of holistic wellbeing and fitness, followed up with me and made sure his program align with my goals. I am so happy working with Marcus to achieve a lifelong journey to wellbeing, and I wish I could choose all the five items (responsiveness, professionalism, punctuality, value and work quality) to sum up my encounter with him.
There are many trainers in the market, but it is rare that you find someone who truly cares, and Marcus is one of them.
Blessed!
