Most strength programs were not built for the cockpit. They assume a home base, a full gym, and a predictable schedule. You have none of those things on a 4-day trip.
Long duty days, time zone shifts, and irregular sleep cycles leave most pilots too exhausted to train consistently. Motivation becomes unreliable. A plan that adapts does not.
Dumbbells and a cable machine. That's it. Most training programs fall apart without a full rack and barbell. Yours should not be one of them.
Reserve schedules. Irregular bid lines. Last-minute swaps. Without programming built for real airline life, training is the first thing that gets dropped.
Maverick Strength Co. was built by a pilot, for pilots. The programming adapts to your bid line. The structure holds when motivation doesn't. Hotel gym or full rack — you always know exactly what to do.
This is not generic fitness. This is a precision system designed around the demands of an aviation career.

I have known Coach Marc for many years but only started working with him as a strength coach since November of 2024. I am 33 years old and have never been stronger in my life. Getting motivated to do the work has always been pretty tough for me but with Marc's encouragement, positive attitude, and quick responses to questions or problems, I have been able to overcome that motivation hurdle. Thanks Coach!

I had the pleasure of working with Marc for the past four months and would highly recommend him — especially if you are in the aviation industry. Marc offers personalized strength and nutrition programs, is respectful, honest, and very professional. I look forward to working with Marc again in the future.

Joining Coach Marc is the best thing I've done for myself in years. He's consistent, clear, and coaches with passion. I hit 59 this year and needed to rebuild my strength. After 3 months, I've turned a corner toward a stronger and healthier lifestyle. Thank you for inspiring me to be better.

Running a business and raising a family means my time is limited. Before Maverick Strength Co., I was winging it at the gym. Coach Marc built a simple, efficient 4-day plan that fits my life — and in four months, my bench went up 23%, deadlift 36%, and squat 41%. I've made more progress with this coaching than I ever did on my own or even in CrossFit. Best investment I've made in my health and strength.

Coach Marc is the real deal. In six decades of trying fitness programs and diet plans, nothing stuck like this. His patience, his challenges, and he genuinely cares. It doesn't feel like a job to him — it feels like a mission. After surgery for a spinal fracture, I spent two years healing and started to accept decline as part of aging... WRONG. I feel better than ever and look forward to a vibrant, independent lifestyle — until God says otherwise.

Marc Hudson built Maverick Strength Co. for high-performing professionals who can't afford to waste time in the gym. As an airline pilot himself, he understands the demands of a high-pressure career — the irregular schedule, the travel fatigue, the hotel gyms — and the discipline it takes to train through all of it.
In 2018, Marc faced a career-threatening health wake-up call. Obese, pre-diabetic, and heading in the wrong direction, he made a decision that changed everything. Through strength training, he reversed his health trajectory and turned that obsession into a mission. His background as a flight instructor made the transition to coaching natural — precise, methodical, and focused on long-term outcomes.
As a USPA-certified coach, Marc builds programs for pilots, executives, and busy professionals that travel with you — at home, in the gym, or on the road. Video technique feedback within one business day. No gimmicks. Just structured, progressive strength training designed to fit your life.
"Let's build strength that lasts."
Work With MarcIf your question isn't answered here, the strategy call is the right next step.
Yes. Your program is built around your flight schedule, not the other way around. If you're flying a 4-day, we adjust. If you're home more one week, we push. If your schedule flips last minute, you have structure inside Everfit to pivot without losing momentum. Consistency doesn't mean perfection. It means having a plan that adapts.
That's expected. Most pilots train in hotel gyms more than they train at home. Your program can be built around dumbbells only, basic hotel equipment, or a full commercial gym when available. You'll always know exactly what to do with what you have.
Most sessions are 35–60 minutes. If you're on a tight overnight, you'll have shorter, efficient sessions. When you're home, we can push intensity and volume. The goal is strength progression without burning you out.
We manage training stress the same way you manage flight risk: intelligently. Volume and intensity are adjusted based on sleep, trip length, fatigue levels, and recovery. You don't need motivation. You need intelligent programming.
Both. Whether you're new to lifting or chasing PRs, your program is built around your current level. The priority is strength, resilience, and long-term sustainability — not ego lifting.
Everything runs through Everfit. You'll receive custom programming, exercise demos, messaging access, and progress tracking. You can upload videos for technique review at any time. You are never training alone.
Minimum: dumbbells, a bench, and basic cable machine access. Optional: barbell and squat rack. If all you have is a hotel setup, we work with that. The program meets you where you are.
You submit the application. We schedule a strategy call. If it's a good fit, you get onboarded inside Everfit and receive a structured plan built around your flight schedule. Simple. Clear. No guesswork.
You won't be starting over. The program adjusts. We don't scrap progress because you had a long duty day or weather delay. This is built for real airline life — missed sessions are accounted for, not punished.
No. The primary focus is strength, performance, and long-term physical resilience. Fat loss often happens as a byproduct of consistent strength training — but the mission is bigger than the scale.
Generic programs don't understand 4-day trips, early report times, time zone shifts, hotel gym limitations, or fatigue from duty days. This is coaching built specifically for airline pilots. The programming, the check-ins, and the feedback are all calibrated for your life.
That's what the strategy call is for. We'll talk through your goals, your schedule, and your training background to determine whether 1-on-1 or self-guided makes more sense. No pressure. Just clarity.
