20+ YEARS EXPERIENCE
Mark began his fitness journey to feel good about himself after being bullied as a young adult. At 242lbs, he wanted to build confidence, mental toughness, lose weight, eat right and eventually develop a healthy relationship with food and fitness.
His passion for fitness grew, and he joined the Canadian Forces infantry. As the weight came off and his knowledge of fitness increased, he started teaching fitness. When he realized his experiences could change others, he never looked back.
Today, Mark can be found rock climbing, trail running, running Obstacle Course Races and writing fiction novels and short stories (markpjnadon.ca).
Mark has completed several fitness certifications, including:
- CanFit Pro Personal Training Certification
- CrossFit LVL 1
- Kettlebell LVL 1 (Agatsu)
- Upper and Lower Body Mobility and Movement (Agatsu)
- Spin (SpinU)
- Stick Mobility LVL 1
- Marathon Training Coach (NAASFP)
