I was born and raised in Arizona. I grew up in the small town of Tolleson and attended Tolleson Union High School. After high school, I attended Glendale Community College where I studied Strength and Nutrition Exercise Science.
My high school strength coach noticed that I enjoyed training, especially to coach and train the other athletes even more. Coach Baker advised me to look into becoming either a strength coach or physical therapist. Once I began working with and helping clients, I knew what my passion and calling was. Watching my own results and progress is nice, but watching my clients’ progress is what I wake up for in the morning.
My main goal with my clients is to help them find what truly makes them happy. Health is not all about shredded abs or huge arms. It is more about developing discipline and committing to a process of change. I love working with clients who not only want to improve their health, but also clients who want to further their career, personal life, finances and all other aspects of life! Your vibe attracts your tribe!
My philosophy is education first. My clients get a full in-depth education on form, technique, and physiology of the body. Once my clients learn form and technique, we then progress into resistance training with barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, body weight, and machine based exercises.

Shortly after I began working in the gym I became a certified personal trainer and I began the journey of aiding others in their health and fitness goals. I was fortunate enough to work part-time and build a clientele, while I also pursued my education. As I explored different specialties within personal training and found corrective exercise/rehabilitation to be my calling.

An Arizona native, I was born and raised in Phoenix where I attended Central High School. At the age of 15, I got interested in fitness to put on muscle, and to help overcome my anxiety at the time. After serving with the Marines for three years, I set off to study and learn the science of building muscle and transforming the body.
My goal is to guide my clients on their journey to achieve their goals. I experience great satisfaction from watching my clients grow and improve day by day towards the best version of themselves.

“It is true that the faith which I am able to exercise is God's own gift. He alone supports it, and he alone can increase it. Moment by moment, I depend on Him. If I were left to myself, my faith would utterly fail.” - George Mueller
Hi, I’m Marc, 26 years old, born in Houston but raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. Graduated B.S Kinesiology from Old Dominion University. My favorite musical artists are Kendrick Lamar, Migos, and Kanye West. Thai Tea with Boba is the bomb. I enjoy hiking and the naps that come after them. And I almost forgot... Go Falcons!
I’ve always been a scrawny kid up until high school. That’s when I began playing football and running track & field. I was eventually recruited to play for a D3 university while completing my undergrad. Through these sports, I acquired the knowledge of various forms of strength training, technique, and fitness programming. After football, I became a volunteer Athletic Trainer, where I learned about the rehabilitation side of fitness. I currently enjoy participating in Intramural leagues, dodge-ball tournaments, and on occasion, hot yoga.
My goal ultimate goal is to help change lives. I want to create a connection with all of my clients and motivate them everyday to push themselves, all while having fun. For me, helping someone better their health is always an exciting experience to be apart of.

Originally from a small town in Montana, I moved to Phoenix to attend Grand Canyon University, working toward my B.S. in Exercise Science. After seeing how wrestling transformed my body and experiencing the confidence it gave me, I became passionate about helping others transform their bodies the way I did. I have a strong belief in teaching the proper technique and form so you can execute the exercises safely and effectively for the best results.
Whether your goal is to increase performance in sports or just live a healthier lifestyle, I have the knowledge to help you reach and destroy your goals! A quote that I live by is “say unto thine own heart, I am my own redeemer.” To sum it up, this means that we should quit asking for the easy way out, and to pick your head up and grind toward your goals. This is what pushes me to achieve my goals and live the life that I want to everyday. So, are you going to take the easy way and keep wishing for change or are you going to let me help you change your life?
