MY PERSONAL STORY

I've Likely Been Where You are Now

I'm Mark Edwards, Precision Nutrition Level 1 Coach and CrossFit Level 2 Trainer.

You might be wondering what my own nutrition and fitness story is. What have I been through that might give me insight into your nutrition and fitness challenges? What could we have in common?

 

In my youth, I was a casual skier, off-road motorcyclist, and martial artist. I went a route that many go: Wing Chun Kung Fu and JKD, then moving more into fighting sports with kickboxing and MMA. These took a toll on my joints, and as I got older, I realized that if I needed to improve my physical strength and health if I wanted to keep doing the things I loved. I would need to be more consistent. I got into the gym more consistently and about 9 years ago, took the plunge into CrossFit.

Along the way, I've personally tried and experienced many of the popular diets that are out there: Macrobiotic Vegetarianism (before so-called "plant-based" eating was a thing, and before anyone coined the word "vegan"), "Fit for Life," The Zone, the Metabolic/Anabolic Diet, the Ketogenic Diet, a modified Paleo Diet, and Intermittent Fasting.

Prior to all of that, I spent many years just eating "whatever." Usually LOTS of pasta. At my heaviest, I was 45 lbs heavier than I am now, so I'm well aware of what it's like to lose a significant amount of weight. I wasn't obese, but for my frame size, I was pretty heavy.

Added to all of this is my history of arthritis in my knees and hip, both a result of a combination of sports-related injuries and advancing age.

If you're an older guy struggling with health, weight, and fitness issues, believe me when I say I KNOW how you feel.

If you've fought with hip, knee, shoulder injuries, and/or weight loss, you know that staying fit can be a tough hill to climb during the pain and limited movement options post-surgery while recovering.

Now I use my experience and training to help men lose weight, get fit, and be the best they've ever been as they get older. 

I bring personal experience to the table that most younger coaches simply do not have.

You can have the body, health, and fitness of a much younger you.

It's POSSIBLE.

Let's work together to make it happen.
