When I was around 12 years, I started taking karate lessons, and at the same age, I started lifting weights. Since then, I have never lost the passion for lifting. I just love the progress and feelings after each session.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>What is your biggest accomplishment?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>During my sports career, I am very proud of two of my achievements: making the Karate National Team and making it to the cover of a fitness magazine. These two successes changed my mindset a lot and turned this passion into my profession as a personal trainer and fitness model.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Why did you decide to become a coach?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Becoming a coach and personal trainer has motivated me a lot. I wanted to share my approaches to training and nutrition with others too. The job is so special for me because I deal with a wide variety of people every day, and it is simply a priceless feeling when clients achieve their goals with me. Many of my clients have even become friends of mine, which is very fulfilling. The job requires a lot of energy, but it gives you back so much more.<\/p>\n<p>Follow Mario on Instagram:<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mario_schafzahl\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\u00a0https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/mario_schafzahl\/<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Three items from Mario&#8217;s home gym<\/strong>:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/kingsbox-hex-dumbbells\/\">Hex halt\u00e8ress:<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/kingsbox-hex-dumbbells\/\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-249937\" src=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-640x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"398\" height=\"498\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-640x800.jpg 640w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-1280x1600.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_3-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 398px) 100vw, 398px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/kingsbox-hi-temp-bumper-plates-3-0\/\">HI-temp bumpers:<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/kingsbox-hi-temp-bumper-plates-3-0\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-249944\" src=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-640x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"396\" height=\"495\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-640x800.jpg 640w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-1280x1600.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_2-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 396px) 100vw, 396px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/mighty-power-rack-cx-35-ii\/\">Mighty Power Rack CX 35:<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/product\/mighty-power-rack-cx-35-ii\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-249951\" src=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-640x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"395\" height=\"494\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-640x800.jpg 640w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-1280x1600.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-1229x1536.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-1638x2048.jpg 1638w, https:\/\/kingsbox.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Mario_1-scaled.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 395px) 100vw, 395px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why did you start with fitness?
