Why Most Weight Loss Attempts Don’t Last
knowledge is never the problem when it comes to weight-loss...the biggest hindrance to reaching your dream, fit body is Getting out of the damaging cycle.
The damaging cycle is as follows:
First: Motivation spike
“Okay THIS time I’m serious.”
Then:
- workouts consistent
- calories tracked
As a result of this the scale drops
Second: The body scrutiny kicks in
Progress feels too slow
- scale obsession
- “I don't look any different”
- unrealistic expectations
Then frustration ramps up because reality is slower than your expectation.
Third: Burnout & falling off
Life gets busy and the plan becomes hard to maintain.
- inconsistency
- emotional eating
- restarting again
- “I already messed up” mindset appears
That is EXTREMELY common in the body transformation phase...
Not laziness.
Not lack of discipline.
It’s:
- impatience
- emotional fatigue
- perfectionism
- unrealistic expectations for body recomposition speed

MEET YOUR COACH- Mario Ortiz
Hi, I'm Mario, a certified personal trainer with over 10+ years of experience helping over 500+ people to be in a better place both physically and mentally. I am passionate about helping people to become their best selves through fitness, and I believe that with the right guidance and support, anyone can achieve their fitness goals.
Why I originally started this this Company is because I wanted to do something meaningful with my life and looking at the fitness industry I noticed that there are a-lot of trainers who are out to exploit peoples insecurities for profit.
I knew I could make a genuine difference in peoples lives by making personal training affordable and accessible for everyone regardless of their financial situation, status, commitments or responsibilities.
Why I wanted to become a trainer is because originally when I first started working out, I was unhappy with the way I looked and I was looking for a trainer to help me to reach my fitness goals. The biggest challenge I had was that I found Personal Training to be very unaffordable. As a result, building the physique I wanted took a lot longer than expected and I sustained a-lot more injuries than expected.
In the end I struggled so you don’t have to…My mistakes and failures are lessons that clients don’t have to learn the hard way. Having friends and family come to me for advice I knew that I could make a positive impact in peoples lives by starting this business.
My companies mission is not to just help you to achieve certain weight or body shape (Which I will help you to do) - Beyond that my companies mission is to help you to feel strong, confident, healthy in your own skin, and to have a positive relationship with physical fitness.
That's why my approach to training focuses on creating sustainable lifestyle changes that fit into your daily routine and are enjoyable, rather than short-term, restrictive diets or extreme exercise plans.
I am committed to helping you achieve your goals in a safe, effective, and enjoyable way. I will be with you every step of the way to provide guidance, support, and motivation.
"My training foundation is built on genuine care and systems that actually get results."
-Mario, Founder of Mario Ortiz Fit

If you're looking for the best personal trainer in NYC....I highly recommend him as a personal trainer”-Bu Lao.

Working with Mario was amazing! I’ve had a few different personal trainers over the years and my experience with Mario was top notch. I got so much stronger, felt a lot more motivated to hit the gym and looked forward to every one of our sessions. Highly recommend!

Mario is a very knowledgeable, detailed, and fun trainer to work with. He has a goal in mind for each workout and stays proactive with you throughout your fitness journey to where you want to get. We’ve only been working together a little over a month but I’ve already noticed my strength increase, my workout form improve, my consistency to the gym accelerate, and my diet become more disciplined since we started. Mario will do whatever it takes to be there for you to achieve your highest ambitions and will work with your schedule for maximum efficiency. Highly recommend him!

Train in a Private Gym No Crowds, No Pressure, No Judgment
You train in a clean, quiet, private space so you can focus on your workout, not on people watching you.
When you feel comfortable, consistent, and focused you get better results.
"I’ve gained so much strength and as a bi product gained many health benefits"
Paul Berney Mario is the best trainer I’ve had many injuries due to bad form Mario never allows bad form to slide. Not one single rep. He’s laser focused on it. I’ve gained so much strength and as a bi product gained many health benefits like an inner ear problem that transformed , better sleep and a much better understanding of form. Mario is very personable I know he has a very diverse cliental. I would definite recommend Mario if you are stuck in your fitness regime.
Questions People Ask Before Starting
A personal trainer is for anyone who wants structure, accountability, and faster results whether you’re a beginner, getting back into shape, or trying to break a plateau. If you’re tired of guessing and want a clear plan, this is for you.
Yes everything is built around you. Your workouts, schedule, experience level, injuries, lifestyle, and goals are all taken into account. There are no templates or one-size-fits-all programs.
We start by learning exactly where you’re at and what you want to achieve, then design a plan that fits your body and your life so you can actually stick to it and see results.
That’s normal and it’s exactly why coaching works. You don’t get judged or dropped. You get support, adjustments, and accountability to get you back on track quickly.
Most clients notice changes in energy, strength, and confidence within the first few weeks. Visible fat loss and muscle tone typically follow as consistency builds. Everyone is different, but the process is designed to work as long as you follow it.
Most clients start noticing changes in how they feel first more energy, better strength, improved confidence, and better habits within the first few weeks. Visible changes like fat loss, muscle tone, and improved body shape follow as consistency builds.
Results vary from person to person based on starting point, effort, and consistency, but the goal is always the same: steady progress you can maintain, not quick fixes that disappear.
First, we look at what’s not working not at blaming you. Results depend on consistency, effort, and following the plan, but if something isn’t clicking, we adjust it. That’s the advantage of working with a real coach instead of guessing on your own.
You’re not locked into anything. The free 4-week reset lets you try the process, see how your body responds, and decide if it’s right for you with no pressure to continue if it’s not.
My training packages can go as low as $30-$60 a session. I pride myself in having options for every budget and I pride myself in having affordable personal training services in NYC without compromising end results.
Real People. Real Results.
These are everyday people who committed to the process not fitness models. Your results will depend on consistency and effort.
