"Let's go let's go, up the hill, back down and to the tree" Marcus bellows as all the neighbors stand around outside and watch my bff(best friend) and I train. I have had the pleasure of training with Marcus also known as "Hodges" since June 2009. "Marcus is going to be mad" has become a household phrase and keeps me in line when I'm feeling unruly and tempted to eat "fatty" foods.
With emphasis on developing good eating habits and becoming best friends with cardio exercise and resistance training, I am now able to run up the hill without the fear of passing out. To date I have lost 4 percent body fat (which I don't miss), I'm down a dress size, and lost over 7 inches from my back, legs, and midsection! Hodges has a balanced temperament that most trainers lack. He's encouraging but not enabling; he's motivating but not militant except for the occasional, "Oh you're tired? Good, 10 more reps!". Best of all, he cares. Your goals are his goals and he is determined to watch you succeed!

Marcus Hodge is the best. I have been severely overweight for years due to a back injury from an accident. Within two weeks of training with Marcus I lost 12 pounds. I no longer rely on crazy and expensive diets. I look forward to my training sessions with him and I am more than confident that Marcus will be the reason that I achieve my fitness goals."

I've always been skeptical about using trainers thinking all I had to do was focus and I could do it myself. The "bottom line" is - I don't do my own taxes because I get a better return when I work with a skilled professional. The same rule applies with exercising and losing weight. I've lost 20lbs in 2 months, and I feel great! I'm ready to lose more and going to lose more thanks to Marcus' great workout plans, affordable prices, attention to detail, and caring heart.

I am a client of Marcus Hodge at MTH Fitness. I’ll like to recognize him for his hardwork and dedication. If you need to shed some pounds - Marcus is the man for the job! I was able to lose fat in areas I didn’t even think I could lose. Also, he helped me gain body strength. I highly recommend his services to anyone who is serious about being fit!

With the help of the Internet, I had the good fortune to find Marcus Hodge when I was looking for a Bronx, New York-based personal trainer for my 13-year-old grandnephew. Although I have no special knowledge in that field, Marcus struck me as eminently suited for his job. He is extraordinarily personable; you feel comfortable with him instantly and know that you’re in the presence of a kind, sensitive man who is truly interested in others. His expertise seems obvious, as does his ability to gear his training regimen to suit the individual. He is also eminently responsible: he arrives when he says he will and keeps in regular contact. Once, after my grandnephew said he felt odd after a session, Marcus called him later to make sure he was all right. I’m looking forward to hiring Marcus for myself in the near future. I recommend him wholeheartedly.
Sincerely,

Marcus' boot camp is one of the best workouts I've ever had. His classes are full of energy, motivational and offer tons of variety. He not only offers a great workout but also provides you with important nutritional tips to help you maintain a healthier diet. In just five weeks I saw amazing results and couldn't believe how much energy I had through out the day. I would recommend this class to anyone who is serious about getting in shape and leading a healthier lifestyle. Marcus delivers results and you will not be disappointed.

I have been working with MTH Fitness for over a year and I am glad to say after listening to Marcus, I changed my diet. I focused more on increasing water, fruits and vegetables. Along with the exercise program recommended by Marcus, I lost 17lbs and numerous inches. In addition, I look and feel my healthiest!

Nicole started with the strength to do only 2 pushups- now she's doing 15!
She also broke through a 10 year weight-loss plateau!
I have been struggling with my weight for more than ten years! It was not until I joined Marcus' boot camp class that I began to notice real changes in my weight, body form and overall health. In the six weeks I attended his class, Marcus not only taught us exercises to work out each body part, he also educated us on important nutritional facts and offered many ideas/suggestions regarding how to better our eating habits. Throughout these weeks, I noticed I was stronger, faster and leaner. At the beginning I could barely do 2 push ups, now I can do at least 15! With his encouraging, enthusiastic, supportive nature, Marcus is truly an excellent, knowledgeable trainer! I cannot wait to start Boot camp: round two and work just as hard for even more results! Thank you Marcus!

Cyndia is at her healthiest, now that she's lost 17lbs!
Making the decision to lose weight was easy for me, but how to do it was another thing. Because I'm not a person that typically enjoys exercising, I didn't push myself at all. But with Marcus of MTH fitness, I have the personal assistance I need to keep me encouraged, and the motivation to push me beyond my fitness limits. Along with exercising I was set in the habit of keeping food journals to follow my eating habits and ensure I stay towards my goals. It's not easy, but nothing worth it ever is.....With almost 30 pounds behind me, I can proudly say that I'm glad I made the decision to change my lifestyle habits and MTH Fitness is a big part of that!

As an active person who's involved herself in group exercise classes for years, there's always the question of what type of trainer you'll be standing in front of for the duration of the class. Are they going to be able to challenge me? Will they have the knowledge to teach me beyond what I already know? Etc. Etc.
Marcus was one of the best group instructors I've had in a while. It was really refreshing. Even though the class ranged in athletic ability, Marcus was able to pin point everyone's strengths and motivate each of us individually while keeping us working out together as a group. He was also creative in his routines and introduced moves I never thought to incorporate into my workouts. He went beyond putting us through workout routines by spending time explaining food labels and going over food choices to better improve our health. I really miss the 1st BootCamp session, I just wish I could have committed to the 2nd half!
Thanks Marcus!
Amelia went from being a skeptic to being a believer!!
The mental commitment to work out is just the beginning. Four months before my wedding (at crunch time) I realized that I had to do more than what I was already doing to meet my weight loss goal. Though I was dieting an exercising, time was ticking and the pounds continued to linger. I joined MTH Fitness only 6 weeks prior to the ceremony and within weeks I began to see results. For me, it was the education, the constant following up, the pointing me out in class... that gave me that extra boost that I needed. Though 8 -10 lbs might not be a lot to some people, it made a world of difference to me. Thank you Marcus for helping me to be a sexy bride :)

Having previously never worked out with a personal trainer for a prolonged period, I was amazed at the quick results that I achieved with Marcus. In 6 weeks I lost 5lbs and 3.5 inches in my thighs, while reducing my body fat percentage! This was thanks to a combination of watching what I ate, working out with Marcus twice a week and doing cardio on my own when we didn't meet. With him, I was able to work out in a focused, structured manner. He pushed me beyond my comfort level in a slow yet effective manner, consistently ensuring that my trouble zones were targeted. It was hard work but worth every penny and single drop of sweat. I give Marcus full credit for my quick results and I would not hesitate to use his services again.
Cheers,

I've exercised on and off for many years and never felt like it did anything for me. After working with MTH Fitness for 12 weeks, my body craves the exercise. I'm stronger and have more energy than I have ever had in my life.

I joined Marcus's boot camp class on a whim in January of this year. I was tired of my unhealthy weight gain over the years and was ready to take control and finally do something about it. I had no idea what to expect at boot camp and, not being the fittest person in the world, was a little worried about the class. But what a perfect blend of hard work and good fun it turned out to be. The camaraderie and support from everyone in this class, and especially from Marcus, is something I have never experienced before and it definitely made it easier to come to class, work hard, and show progress. I like the way Marcus tailors the exercises to each individual's ability so that even someone like me doesn't get left behind. And his focus on nutrition is particularly helpful, I now know which foods are best and when to eat them and how important water is to overall health and well-being. As a teacher and trainer, Marcus is very involved in each person's progress, he checks in and offers tips and helpful hints regularly. Thanks to his guidance, over the course of 12 weeks I have lost 12.4 lbs and 6 inches off my waist and I feel much healthier and happier! I will definitely be back for another round!
