Marc Diaper believes in being the hardest worker in the room. He works hard because he’s always hungry for further success. On top of this, his mindset benefits the mindset of his staff because he still knows how to stay humble.
Marc’s first job was in a sports shop. His meticulous detail was drilled into him by his boss and accidental mentor. Following a stint at Southampton Football Club, a sports degree at university and a year of travel, Marc came back and gained his qualifications in nutrition and sports therapy. He started in the fitness industry as a fitness instructor and personal trainer for LA Fitness. Through hard work and the right attitude, he was on path to success faster than anyone else.
In 2009 he started his own consultancy business, before continuing trend for success when he joined Gymbox as sales director. Six years later he’d risen the ranks through managing director to CEO, where he’s inspiring others in Gymbox, a business that motivates a membership, stimulates a city and inspires an industry.
Gymbox is for the ravers, the first timers, the masochists, the street dancers, the gurus, the people who aren’t satisfied with easy; where enough is never enough. Gymbox is not purely a gym. It's the experience that you will want to re-live no matter where, no matter when!
Everything Gymbox does, from the designs of gym interiors, to the people hired, and the classes, has to inspire and excite, energise and ignite. Gymbox believes in creating workouts that get raved about and venues that get talked about, so forever and always, anything goes.
