With Practice, you can achieve your fitness goals for a lifetime.
Ditch the fitness industry hype and BS. Get expert guidance and strategies that truly work.
The fitness industry is flooded with unrealistic, ineffective ideas, from endless cardio to restrictive diets hyped in movies and social media. These misinformed notions often confuse exhaustion or calorie burn with progress, which is a big part of why 95% of people regain the weight they’ve lost (and more).
With Practice, I’ll help you reach your fitness goals and show you how training, nutrition, and recovery really work together. Every exercise, nutrition strategy, and daily habit is rooted in purpose, not fleeting trends. The results will speak for themselves.
Getting fit AND maintaining it is more achievable than you might imagine.
Are you ready to get in the best shape of your life and build the skills for lasting change?

Meet the Business Owner: Mark P.
Hi, I’m Mark. My fitness journey started over thirty years ago when I first walked into a Gold’s Gym and was hooked immediately. I earned my first personal training certification in college, training clients on the side while balancing school. After grad school, I worked as a creative director for many years, always steering my career toward health and fitness.
In the early 2000s, I worked for a global leader in the fitness industry, where I became friends with elite fitness professionals from around the world. That experience reignited my passion for coaching, so I re-certified and started training clients again.
In 2012, I relocated to Austin, TX, and launched a nutrition brand that I eventually sold to investors in 2021. Throughout this period, I immersed myself in the fitness world to learn/experience as much as possible.
In 2024, I moved to New Braunfels and launched Practice to help others achieve their fitness goals and provide the tools and knowledge for lifelong health.
