Movement is Medicine. Let's Use It.

Strength and conditioning for people with Parkinson's Disease, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and chronic conditions — on your terms.

I'm Mario Zenteno — personal trainer, neuropsychology graduate, and MSc candidate in Sports and Health Sciences. I work at the intersection of neuroscience, behaviour, and movement to help individuals with complex conditions reclaim function, confidence, and quality of life.

The 3 Pillars

Science-Backed

Every program is grounded in neuropsychology and exercise science. Not generic fitness — targeted rehabilitation through strength training.

Adaptive by Design

Whether you're managing tremors, motor coordination challenges, or sensory sensitivities, your program is built around your needs — not a template.

Wherever You Are

I come to you. Home visits, community spaces, or a mutually agreed location. Accessibility isn't an afterthought — it's the foundation.

The Coach Behind the Method

With a background in Neuropsychology, specialized certifications in Parkinson's care (PD101 Carefiver by Parkinson's Canada) and Autism Spectrum Disorder, and ongoing graduate research in chronic conditions, I don't just train people — I understand the neuroscience of why they move the way they do.

“I’ve had many personal trainers over the 20 years that I’ve had Parkinson’s Disease, but no one has had the knowledge, temperament and sheer likability that Mario possesses. His understanding of the challenges of Parkinson’s enables him to adapt exercises to my needs and limitations. I’ve benefitted greatly and look forward to my training sessions with him. I highly recommend Mario.”

Real Conversations. Real Expertise.

I sit down with coaches, healthcare professionals, athletes, and advocates to talk about health, movement, and the science behind both. New episodes drop regularly.
