This episode is one that brings us a different viewpoint of life, business and fitness from an individual who came to the United States after living his entire life in Germany.
Marco does a nice job telling his view of how the fitness industry differs in approach and style in Europe vs the United States. Marco had a life change after a long career in Europe, that forced him to make a decision to leave what he knew and was comfortable with, and take a leap to go to a new country and start all over. After overcoming some initial struggles Marco was able to use his past experiences to his advantage and utilize that knowledge to make a difference in many lives.
Marco has a Masters Degree in Sport Science, Sports Management, Certified Fitness and Athletic Coach, Certified Group Fitness Master Instructor, Certified TRX Instructor, REHAB Certified, Certified Nutrition Coach and Certified CPR/First Aid/AED
