Marcus Neal
Owner/Founder of MNF
Marcus earned his Bachelor's Degree in Exercise Science in 2009. Afterwards, he took his career as a professional basketball player to Europe, and later on around the globe. Considering his educational background and his career as a professional athlete, Marcus used every opportunity to learn from each coach and trainer that crossed his path. In this way he has been exposed to myriad different approaches to and theories of exercise, conditioning, group training, high-level athletic performance and psychological health.
In 2015, motivated by his passion for sport and his drive to motivate and support others, Marcus made the decision to start his own Personal Training Business; thus MNF was born. In training his clients, Marcus draws upon the wealth of education and experience he’s gained over the years as an athlete and coach. Marcus’ vision is to help individuals go beyond real and perceived limits to achieve their health and fitness goals, enabling them to flourish in everyday life.
Driven by growth, discipline and development, Marcus enjoys each moment spent in the gym, whether it’s 1:1 training, working with athletic teams or conducting group fitness classes. No matter the setting, Marcus brings his all.
