/ the trainer behind the van
FABI.
I'm Fabián Márquez, Fabi to my friends. I've spent over 12 years training people and helping them change their lives and their bodies through our method of functional training and flexible nutrition.
/ origin
Where this comes from.
I started coaching in gyms. But I kept seeing the same thing: motivated people paying monthly fees to train two or three times. Not because they were lazy. Logistics — work, kids, distance, shame, cold.
A multi-sport athlete since childhood, I've practiced over 20 disciplines myself. Without that, my motto wouldn't hold up: "How can you understand a sport if you haven't even played it?"
I built the gym on wheels to erase that friction. The van carries the gear. I carry the plan. You just have to show up.
My training comes from INEF and CCAFD (Sport & Exercise Sciences), backed by years of rehab, functional training and real body recompositions. Self-taught, research-driven, and I keep learning every year.
“How can you understand a sport if you haven't even played it?”
— my lema, always
/ philosophy
The Pata Negra philosophy.
- 01
Show up first.
Show up and do the work, no excuses. The rest is details.
- 02
People with history.
If we don't understand your life, no plan survives.
- 03
Strength and intensity.
No strength means no health, no sport and no aging well.
- 04
Sustainability over speed.
Plans that hold beat plans that sparkle.
- 05
Measure to improve.
What doesn't get measured doesn't improve. We adjust on real data, not gut feelings.
/ the gym on wheels
A gym that travels to you.
The “gym on wheels” is our van-gym: we load it with all the gear and bring it to you — your home, a park, wherever works. You don't go to the gym: the gym comes to you.
No more of the usual excuses — distance, schedules, the cold, feeling self-conscious. We set up your session wherever you like, with a full gym's worth of equipment and a plan built for you.

/ the other coach
BADI.
Badi is the other coach at Pata Negra. A personal trainer with experience across a huge range of sports and real body recompositions: fat loss, mobility, strength and power.
Sport runs through him to the bone. He competes in Hyrox and CrossFit, among other things. Whatever he preaches, he trains in his own body first.
He's German, and it shows: rigid, strict, zero shortcuts. With him there are no tricks and nothing slips by. Just hard work and consistency.
Sometimes his clients hate him — because he lets nothing slide — and then they thank him. Discipline, consistency and respect for your own body: that's what rules for Badi, and his results prove it.
- Discipline
- Consistency
- Respect for the body
