Please welcome Mark to the Independent Iron team!

“As a fitness professional and personal trainer for over 35 years, I’ve had the opportunity to work with people of all ages and abilities. From the person just beginning their fitness journey to the most accomplished athlete.

My experience, knowledge and background allow me to
create and build workout plans and programs to match my clients goals and help them improve and overcome any obstacles and limitations they may have.

I’ve coached athletes from junior high, high school, college and professionals. I’ve worked with people who have special needs, stroke victims, amputees, paraplegics, and specialize in working with seniors, as I’m one myself.

I’m a six time Master’s bodybuilding champion, a world champion powerlifter, and national record holder, so I can help you achieve your goals no matter what they are or obstacles you encounter.

“I’ve been a trainer since 2016 and am deeply passionate about helping people become their best, strongest, and most confident selves through fitness. Whether you’ve never entered a gym in your life, or you’ve been at it for years and want to take your results up a notch, I’ll meet you where you’re at and help you level up step-by-step.
I typically work with busy working professionals, parents, and retirees who want to gain strength, change their body composition (gain muscle/ lose fat), manage and reduce pain, improve energy, gain confidence, or all of the above.”

Please join us in welcoming Eric to the Independent Iron team!

“Hello, I’m Eric! I help adults, especially those 40 and older, improve their longevity, strength, and balance through safe, fun, and effective strength training. My goal is to help you feel stronger, steadier, and more confident in your everyday life.

I started lifting weights with my dad when I was 12, and building muscle & strength training has shaped my confidence and resilience ever since. I love being in nature, hiking, and trail running, and one of my proudest achievements is completing a 50k run around Mount St. Helens. My long-term goal is to stay mobile and active well into old age.

With 7+ years of coaching experience, I meet you exactly where you’re at, whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing a joint replacement, brand new to exercise, or already disciplined. Together, we’ll build a personalized plan, modify when needed, and move through the process with patience and purpose.

Let’s build a stronger body and mind so you can stay active, confident, and enjoy life to the fullest. I’m here to guide you every step of the way.

You’re able to train with me in person, online, or through a fully independent program designed specifically for your needs with ongoing guidance. Schedule your free assessment today, and I’ll show you exactly how we can improve your strength, mobility, and confidence; safely and effectively.”
