Our Legacy

Chemical Fitness wasn’t born in a boardroom or sketched on a business plan; it was forged in a garage during a time when the world was standing still. For founder Mark Stavely, fitness has been more than a pastime—it’s a 30-year passion, a lifelong obsession, and now, a legacy. It all began when a few friends asked Mark for help with their health and fitness routines. What started as casual training sessions quickly evolved into something bigger. Word spread about Mark’s no-nonsense approach to fitness and his garage transformed into a sanctuary for those seeking strength and endurance, growing from a few friends to a tribe of 10, and then many more.

The Vision: Generational Health

But it wasn’t just about building muscle—it was about building lives. Mark watched his clients shed not just pounds but also limitations. He witnessed a Type 2 diabetic reverse their condition and an alcoholic find clarity and a new lease on life. The garage wasn’t just a gym; it was a lifeline. From this humble beginning, the vision for Chemical Fitness took shape—a space that embodies Mark’s philosophy of generational health. This isn’t just about transforming bodies for today; it’s about empowering individuals to lead lives of independence and vitality for years to come. At Chemical Fitness, we focus on fitness experiences in Fayetteville that help you set a standard of wellness for future generations. Our focus is to strengthen the mind as well as the body.

It’s about being the parent, grandparent, or role model who demonstrates strength, perseverance, and a healthy lifestyle. It’s ensuring you don’t just live longer but live better, staying capable and independent at every stage of life.
