About Mario

I have been training since I was very young. I was always passionate about health and fitness. Playing sports and being an athlete as well as an active person has always motivated me to stay in the fitness realm. I have always been determined and motivated, which has given me the drive to spread this passion to others in hopes of changing their lives in a positive way. I have reached many of my goals, but I have fallen short of some of them. However, that hasn’t stopped me from reaching for those goals. If anything, it makes me even more motivated to progress. Now with the experience and confidence I have developed, I want to help others reach their goals and surpass what they expect.
