Marsalis creates an environment where success sneaks up on you. The work is challenging but always doable. He starts you off where you are. I never felt like I couldn't do what he asked of me. Cycling is my sport. Everyone talks about the benefits of a strong core, but when you really train it and strengthen it, wow! The benefits are awesome.
Staying home during the off-season was always tough, but Coach B made the transition smooth. He focuses on strengthening overlooked muscles, injury prevention, and tailoring workouts to my needs. I feel great and fully prepared, both mentally and physically, for my upcoming season.
After an ankle injury, a frozen shoulder, and a health diagnosis, I began my journey with Marsalis. Starting with 2 lb weights and facing setbacks, Marsalis adapted my workouts and worked with my physical therapist. Two years later, I have more energy, mobility, and strength, now lifting 10-20 lb weights. I’m focused on reducing stress, overcoming mental blocks, and pushing my limits.
When I say training with Marsalis was life changing, it is no understatement. I began training with him in high school in 2019 to manage a chronic back injury and build strength as a volleyball athlete, and have continued working with him through 2023.
Marsalis is an excellent strength coach who I would recommend to anyone who wants help in achieving your performance goals. For me, my goals were building strength, mobility, and balance without hurting myself. Marsalis met me where I was at and has patiently guided me on my journey to greater health.
