I have been a client of Marcus Calabrese for the past few months. I am relatively new to working out and Marcus has been great in guiding me and helping me establish a solid foundation for strength training. He has shown me how to use the various pieces of gym equipment, as well as how to utilize free-weights and bands with proper form. It has been a lot of fun working with him, and while he challenges me to push myself during my workouts, he is very encouraging and motivating. In our first session, he asked me what my fitness goals were, and then he helped me map out a plan to accomplish those goals. I was able to, relatively quickly, make progress towards my goals while working with Marcus. For example, one of my goals was to gain 10 lbs and after the first month of working with Marcus I was able to gain 4 lbs, 2 lbs of which was skeletal muscle mass and my percent body fat decreased from 18.4% to 18.0%. I am incredibly grateful for the knowledge, encouragement, support and confidence Marcus provided me during my sessions with him. Marcus is able to meet his clients where they are at in their fitness journeys and formulate a realistic fitness plan that is tailored to their goals.  He is a valuable asset to any team, and I know he will continue to do great work with his current and future clients.

I just wanted to give a shout for one of your applicants, Marcus Calabrese, who is my trainer at the YMCA. I've been working out with Marcus for a few months now and I'm seeing great results! My job is super sedentary so we have been working on core strength and overall fitness. I have gotten much stronger and see definite results. 

Marcus and I have developed a good working relationship and I have found that he has a real talent for identifying what someone is capable of doing. He knows when to push you and when you are at your max. He has also come up with a few different ways to exercise the same muscle group so that I don't get bored; we are able to mix it up each session. I also want to mention that he is reliable and has been really good at communication when we need to coordinate schedules. I recommend him without any reservation!  

I hope you will give him every consideration and please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. 

Best regards, Elizabeth
