FitnessFixZone was founded by Mark Vance to cut through the toxic noise in the online fitness industry.

After a decade of coaching athletes and everyday people, Mark realized that most fitness content online is either a dangerous fad diet, unsubstantiated "bro-science," or a thinly veiled advertisement for garbage supplements.

We decided to fix that. Everything published on FitnessFixZone is rooted in peer-reviewed science, actual coaching experience, and the real-world biomechanics of the human body.

Our Editorial Standard & E-E-A-T

Google and our readers demand the highest level of Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness (E-E-A-T). We take this mandate seriously.

  • No GhostwritersEvery guide is written or extensively reviewed by certified coaches who actually train people in the real world.
  • Science-BackedWe link directly to PubMed and peer-reviewed journals when making claims about physiology or nutrition.
  • Honest ReviewsIf a supplement is snake oil, we will say so. If a program is dangerous, we will tear it apart.
  • Transparent AffiliationWe earn commissions on some recommended products. This never dictates our scientific assessment of the product.
