About Mackenzie...
Mackenzie K. Phillips, executive-level practicing lawyer & owner of Maeve40 Fitness, coaches individuals and groups in Chicago, online, on the Spartan field, and around the world at destination fitness retreats. Her resume also includes Spartan SGX coach, NASM Certified Personal Trainer, and Russian Kettlebell certified instructor. Most recently, Maeve40 Fitness hosted the Wander Woman Retreat in New Buffalo Michigan in June 2019 and a series of bootcamp classes in Martha’s Vineyard in August 2019.
Growing up as a classically trained musician and dancer, Mackenzie often questioned her decision to practice law. But as she matured, she learned in the truest sense that life doesn't have to be"either/or"; it can be "both/and." After venturing into NPC Bikini Competitions, she became a NASM-CPT with the mission of starting her own health, lifestyle and fitness brand - Maeve40 Fitness.
"At Maeve40 Fitness, we challenge clients to question how their lives and their relationship with their bodies and minds would be different, if they brought the same fight they brought to everything else in their lives - and claimed it for themselves. We inspire and teach individuals to establish and maintain that fight with genetically-driven, customized training and nutrition programs."
