#trainwithmarv

My name is Marvin Mitchell. EVERYONE calls me Marv. I'm the Owner, and Head Strength & Conditioning Coach of the Blast Athletic Club in Toronto, CANADA.

In a lot of ways I'm your stereotypical jock. I had an early affinity for sports and physical training. This affinity grew into a lifelong passion. Early-ish in my athletic journey I also discovered that I enjoyed coaching people, and that people enjoyed being coached by me. I have had the incredible good fortune of turning both of my passions (training & coaching) into a gratifying and successful career for over 20 years! I have zero intention of ever doing anything else.

I'm a tactician and a technician. I will always ask you to give me your best - whatever your best may be on that particular day. I feel very secure in asking for that level of accountability from you, because I will always give you MY BEST- so I think its a fair deal.

One of my favourite quotes goes something like: "People won't care how much you know, until they know how much you care." I try to never lose sight of that sentiment. I don't give a s**t what your body looks like, whether you've ever exercised a day in your life, how many times you've tried before, or any other real or imagined limitation. I am only focused on helping you improve, and achieve whatever goals are important to YOU. End of story.
