Who’s been voted the best person to help you fit in your jeans for five years running? This guy. Mark Lebos combines a master’s degree in exercise physiology with a sense of humor, a touch of sadism and more than 20 years of applied knowledge to keep his clients healthy and injury-free. His team at the state-of-the-art Strong Gym on Bull Street specializes in one-on-one and group fitness, massage therapy, post-surgical rehab, neurofitness and cancer recovery, and Mark oversees every session with expertise and unflappable cheer. Just don’t make him angry. He makes you do extra squats when he’s angry.
