Born and raised in Dallas, TX, Marsella Reyes epitomizes southern hospitality. With strong support from her social media platform, Marsella is driven by a genuine desire to help others and set an exemplary standard, inspiring and encouraging those around her.

Marsella’s athletic journey began at the age of five and spanned various sports, including ballet, gymnastics, soccer, basketball, volleyball, and track. Her favorites were basketball and track and field. However, after high school, Marsella's life took a detour into the college party scene, marked by alcohol, drugs, and a lack of responsibility.

Between the ages of 16 and 25, Marsella struggled to find her way until fitness became her salvation. Under the guidance of top coaches, she began to see transformative results, not only physically but mentally as well. Her newfound passion led her to research diverse training methods and clean eating habits, striving for a holistic approach to health.

In 2015, after diligently applying her research, Marsella moved to Southern California, specifically San Diego, to immerse herself in a fitness-centric lifestyle. Her dedication and passion caught the attention of many, who encouraged her to explore competitive bodybuilding. In 2016, Marsella competed as a figure athlete in the National Physique Committee, securing 3rd place in her class. After taking a year off to build and improve, she returned to the stage in 2017 and placed 3rd again, qualifying nationally. Her first national show in Las Vegas saw her placing 12th out of 20.

Marsella’s growing passion for fitness led her to leave her career in event planning and pursue personal training full-time. She became increasingly involved in fitness events, worked at supplement shops, and became a brand ambassador for various fitness apparel and supplement companies. In 2017, during the Anaheim Fit Expo, she was scouted by an agent from a talent agency in Los Angeles, which led to a fitness modeling contract.

Although Marsella is more established within the fitness industry, with her determination and drive, she is ready to tackle any challenge that comes her way. With notable features on BeachBody and Samsung, she has been able to build on online fitness app and community (Better Body by Mars www.betterbodybymars.com), in addition to her own line of revolutionary anti-inflammatory products (www.miraclemg.com).
