Mark Phillpott
Lead Personal Trainer
Growing up in northern New Jersey, there was barely a field or court in town where Mark could not be found at some point during the year. Mark was inspired to study exercise sciences while rehabbing with an athletic trainer following a knee injury requiring surgery in high school.
Since graduating from the University of Maryland with a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology in 2005, Mark has taken on a variety of roles ranging from personal training and physical therapy to athletic performance training where he coached numerous collegiate and professional athletes. Mark also has substantial experience working with individuals in special populations including, but not limited to those with orthopedic concerns, cardiovascular disease, Parkinson’s and post-cancer treatment to name a few.
Mark has thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to build relationships with clients and watch them achieve their health and fitness goals. He also loves working closely with his teammates to create fresh, fun and effective exercise programs.
When not training clients or working out himself, Mark enjoys fishing, hiking, golf, spending time with friends, and attending as many Maryland sporting events as possible. Go Terps!
