MDC Wellness · Los Angeles

Mark de Carli Hi, I'm a wellness professional with an academic background and over seventeen years of experience.

I genuinely love my job, that's the reason why I always give my best to my clients. I am fueled by sincere enthusiasm for my profession.

My approach is science-based: evidence-driven exercise protocols paired with personalized nutrition guidance, designed to extend longevity and elevate quality of life.

Experience sustainable progress that prevents injuries, fortifies bone density, and outsmarts the metabolic decline that catches most adults off guard.

Philosophy

"No shortcuts. No injuries. No relapses."

Specialties

Every protocol, tailored.
Every session, measured.

Strength and Conditioning

Resistance, aerobic, power, flexibility, and mobility programming periodized to your physiology and goals.

Injury Prevention

Movement screening, asymmetry correction, and intelligent load management — built to keep you out of the re-injury cycle for good.

Longevity / Over 50 Wellness

Sarcopenia reversal, bone density loading, and cognitive-motor protocols anchored to current geriatric exercise science — for decades of thriving.

Body Transformation

Body recomposition built on validated energy-balance and protein-synthesis science — sustainable change, not gimmicks or extremes.

Joints Health

ACL, knee, shoulder, rotator-cuff, and hip-replacement pre- and post-rehab — drawn from years of physical-therapy-assistant experience.

Corrective Exercises

Chronic lower-back relief, postural realignment, core stability, and proprioceptive balance work — restoring how the body should move.

Sports Performance

Sport-specific power, rotational strength, and joint durability — including iTPA-credentialed tennis conditioning, golf, and running.

Women's Health

Hormone-aware programming for bone density, lean-mass preservation, and metabolic recalibration through perimenopause, menopause, and beyond.

Personalized macronutrient strategy, performance fueling, and evidence-based supplement guidance.

Frequently Asked

Before you start.
Common questions.

Yes — every new client gets a complimentary phone consultation before the first session, so we can confirm goals, history, and fit.

In-home (your house, condo, or building gym), outdoors at a park or beach, in a private gym facility I have access to, or virtually via Zoom, FaceTime, or Google Meet. All required equipment is brought to in-home sessions.

In-person 1-on-1 sessions start at $150. Virtual sessions start at $90. Pricing decreases by 5% on the 10-session package and 10% on the 24-session package.

Yes. With a former physical-therapy-assistant background and ACE Senior Fitness specialization, I work routinely with anxiety, arthritis, back/joint pain, ACL/knee post-op, rotator cuff issues, hip replacement, hypertension, hypothyroidism, osteoporosis, sciatica, plantar fasciitis, prediabetes, menopause, and more. Programming is built around the condition — never in spite of it.

Every session includes the 60-minute training block plus comprehensive nutritionist services — tailored macros, supplement strategy, sleep coaching, stress management, and ongoing program adjustments. It's the full package, not training and nutrition sold separately.
