What LIMITLESS means to me…

“To be a better version of yourself, you should build healthy habits which contributes to the overall health such as mental, physical and nutritional health — to make you fit and boost yourself confidence.”
What LIMITLESS mean to me…
There’s no such thing as “limit” when it comes to health, since reaching a healthy well-being is a lifelong journey. To be a better version of yourself, you should build healthy habits which contributes to the overall health such as mental, physical and nutritional health — to make you fit and boost yourself confidence.
A lifelong fan of lifting weights – it has been Marco’s passion for years. He has been actively competing in powerlifting since 2011 and have not lost since, one of the motivating factors he uses with dedication in pushing himself to remain on the top. Marco has experience in Filipino Martial Arts such as Arnis & TRACMA, and has been a boxing coach for over a year to learn new skills, adapting them to different kinds of sports.
Marco believes health and fitness shouldn’t ever feel restrictive – it should enhance the life you want to live. Enjoy the process of being a work in progress. A philosophy he educates his clients on as he loves seeing his clients achieve and/or surpass their fitness goals.
Fun Fact: Basketball is something Marco is still keen about, since playing passionately back in the day. He still makes an effort to play once a week for a good conditioning workout and for skill retention.

Rachel Lopez

“I believe there is no limit to what you can achieve. Live according to your values, trust the process and reach for your goals. You can be whoever you want to be and you can do whatever you want to do. The possibilities in life has no boundaries.”
“I believe there is no limit to what you can achieve. Live according to your values, trust the process and reach for your goals. You can be whoever you want to be and you can do whatever you want to do. The possibilities in life has no boundaries. “
Rachel believes that pursuing health isn’t as binary as “eating less and smash workouts every day” – it’s about taking care of your body, mind and soul for it to truly serve you well.
What makes her happy about working with clients is that she gets to help unlock their potential – achievements, big or small, all contribute to the collaborative dynamics of coach-and-client. A bonus is being in the position to witness looks of surprise and pride when someone does something they couldn’t do, or thought they couldn’t do. Those moments are powerful affirmations that Rachel is doing something that feels right.
In the period of her professional training, Rachel has wasted no time in acquiring and refining her skills and education. She has completed education with Poliquin Personal Training Level 1, GGS Certified Pre- & Postnatal Coach, Pre-Post-Natal Course for Personal Trainers by NASM,
GS-1 Women’s Coaching Specialist Certification, ASP Education International in “Nutrition” and in “Fat Loss & Physique Transformation”
Fun Fact: Rachel loves cooking and recreating recipes at home. Shad worked in the F&B industry for almost 8 years before shifting her purpose to Health & Fitness.
