Brian is from Mount Desert Island in Maine. He has always been drawn to the outdoors and physical activity, whether it was sports of any kind or hiking, biking or exercising. From a young age, Brian was exposed to health care as his father is a chiropractor and mother a nurse. After graduation from the University of Maine, Brian wanted to help people with their health like his parents, but in more of a proactive way. He wanted to help them discover that a healthy active lifestyle can help you avoid most chronic health issues. He moved to Massachusetts and attended the National Personal Training Institute. He was luckily introduced to PJ and Paula at Fitness Together Belmont and has been a member of the team ever since. Brian feels lucky that he gets to go to work every day doing something he loves and believes in.

Marckender is a down to earth type of guy who doesn't expect perfection but also doesn't mind trying for it as well. Growing up his grandfather was a superhero to him. He was a farmer living in the moutains of Haiti. Though he was in his late 60's/ early 70's, he was a very solid guy. He moved well and he was very strong. He once had enough strength to pull and tame a young disobedient bull. Because of his grandfather he set out to learn how he could be as strong and healthy as he grew up and aged. He became passionate about Functional Strentgh training, Nurition and the positive impact of clean eating, and the very important aspect of recovery. He loves that here at Fitness Together Belmont there is a well balanced mix of structure and creativity. No two trainers are alike but that is what makes us great and loves the fact that there is so much open commuication between staff and management.
