The Great Unlearn

Marcus Filly, founder of Functional Bodybuilding, shares his expertise on boosting and sustaining vitality through simple nutrition and exercise techniques. After years of rigorous CrossFit training and chasing peak performance, Marcus encountered major life changes and burnout, which ultimately became a valuable learning experience for himself and others.

In response, he created Functional Bodybuilding to support athletes and individuals aiming for their best physical and mental well-being, all while embracing the process. Marcus now emphasizes personalized programming and believes that lasting success is not achieved through strict limitations.
