Bio
My name is Marius Pop. I was born in Romania in 1977. In communist Romania, as a kid, there was not much else to do other than sports. I started attending organized sports at 5 and I never stopped since. Most of my youth years I spent practicing martial arts and strength training.
I immigrated to Canada in 2005 in search for a better life and hoping to make a living in the strength and conditioning industry. I’ve been a Goodlife personal trainer for more than 15 years. During my Goodlife years I tried to change in better my clients life and also help my younger and inexperienced trainers offering advice, workshops and courses. Finally last year I decided to open a gym with my partner and friend, Dr. Khaled. This gym reflects our vision about training. I am excited to improve the lives of many more adults and develop powerful kids to become great athletes and why not champions.
