Spotlight: Jon Marks

Something new that I’ll be doing is recognizing some of our past and present Fit and Psyched competitors. Here at Fit and Psyched located at 1177 Clare Ave, Unit #2, West Palm Beach, Florida we train people of all ages and fitness levels/goals. I’d like to start off with Jon Marks, a former marine, a fierce competitor and one of the truly great guys in the sport today.

Jon had won The Armed Forces Bodybuilding Championships a few years before coming on board with Fit and Psyched and we immediately set our sights on The 2014 NPC Sunshine Classic here in West Palm Beach. One of our goals was to create more balance in Jon’s physique and take his conditioning to another level…..both of which we accomplished as he won the heavyweight class with ease despite weighing in at the bottom of the class and then taking the overall as he edged out another Fit and Psyched competitor light-heavyweight John Meunier.

Moving forward to 2015 it was time to take on the competition at the next level….The NPC Junior USA Bodybuilding Championships located in Charleston, South Carolina. Putting on more size and creating more balance were our focal points, as well as the usual goal of better conditioning. I believe this was the first time Jon trained for a whole year with one show in his sights and the results showed. Although we weren’t able to win the overall like we previously did, Jon came in as a bonafide heavyweight at a chiseled 214 pounds (up 15 pounds from the last show) and was edged out by a single point to the eventual winner of the entire show. Second place at his first national contest was a heck of an accomplishment and I believe is just the beginning to a bright future on and off of the stage!
