Personal Trainer Mark Diaz' Testimonials of Work with General Health and Fitness Clients
I am a 60-year old woman who has been working out regularly for half my adult life. My strength work has paralleled the growth… of the fitness industry. When I began working out, it was in a rigorous calisthenics class that met three times a week. After doing that for several years, I “graduated” to personal training with trainers who were working in other fields (e.g., acting) and who used their knowledge of fitness to train their clients. This worked fine for me for a while. It was all I could do to understand proper positioning and to achieve mental focus.
As my knowledge and understanding grew, I needed a trainer who was more knowledgeable, professional, and committed to strength training as a career. I needed a trainer who did not lower his expectations of me because of his considerations regarding age, gender or performance. In short, I wanted to be treated as if I could always improve – as if I could always do better. I found Mark Diaz to exemplify these beliefs.
I have been working with Mark for more than three years on a regular basis – three times a week. Throughout our years together, Mark has been committed to ongoing professional training and advancement for himself. Without question, I have benefited greatly from that commitment. He is a demanding taskmaster – one who has high expectations for me, who pays attention to my performance, observes both my strengths and my weaknesses, and takes all of his resulting understanding into account when he designs my programs. His coaching makes me healthier, stronger and younger. I could ask for nothing more in a personal trainer.

Mark Diaz is the real deal. There are few people whose advice related to physical fitness I respect more than Mark's. His workout programs produce fast, serious results. You won't be dissapointed!
Stuart Old, Independent Businessman (Bermuda)
In January 2009 I decided I would get fit, healthy, and lose weight, which i have struggled with all of my adult life. For a month I did aerobic exercise to no avail - did not lose a pound or an inch. I was then introduced to personal trainer Mark Diaz (of Physiqology) through my brother.
I saw that Mark's approach to training was not randomly spending time in a gym running on a tredmill, but a specialized weight training programme - something very new to me! I embarked on the programme in February of '09.
Mark writes my programmes for me in NYC and we correspond through e-mail. I have a trainer in Bermuda who works through the programme with me. Once one programme is finished, it gets faxed to Mark and the new one appears in my e-mail inbox.
In 8 months I have lost 50 pounds and 5 dress sizes - does Mark's programme work? You bet it does! I couldn't be happier with the programme and advice I receive from him. Mark has helped me to realize a life-long dream of being fit and healthy.
Alyson Tuxworth, Businesswoman (Bermuda)
I was amazed at how quickly my energy levels and strength improved after starting this program. Within a few short weeks I had lost a whole dress size. Before now, I had been suffering from digestive problems and fatigue but once I followed Physiqology's recommended supplement protocol I haven't had a single issue. The level of professionalism and personal client attention is the highest I have ever received.

Nutrition (Cholesterol Lowering)
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Mark [Diaz]! I was so excited, I could not resist calling you. My husband’s doctor was amazed and I am SUPER relieved! [with the improvement of his cholesterol] I need to purchase more smart fats from you… By the way, your workout yesterday made a huge difference in my sleep cycle. I overslept to 8:30! (I have not done that in years) I feel great.
