About RAFES365

Twenty-two years. One craft.

I am Mark. I have spent two decades studying nutrition, working alongside coaches and physiotherapists, and writing protocols by hand for people who were tired of templates. RAFES365 is the work of those years - folded into three formats, reviewed by the people I trust, delivered one client at a time.

A letter from the founder.

Why RAFES365 exists, in my own words.

I started writing nutrition plans in 2003 from a borrowed kitchen in Madrid. The first ones were on paper. The second ones were on paper too. By the time I had a hundred clients, I had learned the only thing about this work that ever really mattered: the body in front of me is not the body in the textbook.

For two decades I worked in studios, gyms, and clinics. I trained with coaches who taught me how to load a body slowly. I learned from physiotherapists who taught me what not to load. I watched hundreds of plans fail because the plans were wrong, not because the plans were generic - built for an average that did not exist.

Every protocol you have ever bought was written for someone who does not exist. RAFES365 is an attempt to undo that.

The other thing I learned, slowly, was that one coach is not a system. The clients I helped most were the ones whose plans had been read by a second specialist before they began - a nutritionist, a physio, a pelvic-floor expert, a strength coach. That second pair of eyes was the difference between a plan that worked and a plan that hurt.

RAFES365 is the formal version of how I have worked privately for years: one intake, one report, one specialist review, one year of support - no app trap, no subscription, no outsourcing. You buy the plan once. You keep it. You learn from it. Then you outgrow me.

What I believe.

Five principles. Non-negotiable.

01

You are not a category.

Templates fail because they treat people as averages. Every RAFES365 report begins from your intake, your work, your schedule, your history. The plan is built for one person.

02

Adherence is the only metric that matters.

A perfect protocol on paper is useless if it breaks inside your real week. Everything is written to become something you can actually live with.

03

One person is not enough.

Every report is reviewed by a second specialist before it reaches you. No single coach should be the only set of eyes on a year of someone's body.

04

Subscriptions corrupt the work.

When the business depends on keeping you, the plan stops trying to make you independent. RAFES365 is one payment, one year, then you are free of me.

05

Slow is the only sustainable fast.

The protocol that builds in seasons is the protocol you still hold in season ten. Quick wins are inherited, quiet years are what actually change a life.

The path here.

From a borrowed kitchen to RAFES365.

2003

Started in nutrition.

First studies in clinical nutrition. Began coaching family and friends out of a tiny rented kitchen, where the first protocols were paper, taped to a fridge.

2006

First in-person practice.

Opened a small studio in Madrid. Learned what no textbook taught, that adherence beats theory, and that the plan you do not follow is worse than no plan at all.

2010

Specialised in performance.

Trained alongside strength coaches and physiotherapists. Started building protocols for runners and competitive athletes, and later, busy adults with real lives.

2015

Built the network.

Partnered with the nutritionists, physios, and pelvic-floor specialists I still work with today. Stopped pretending one person can be the whole team.

2020

Went private.

Closed the studio. Began building bespoke 365-day reports for clients who wanted one source, one year, no subscription.

2024

Launched RAFES365.

Brought it all under one roof. Three protocols. One standard of precision. The same review process I used privately for nine years, now open to everyone who asks.

The network.

The people who read every report.

Every RAFES365 protocol is reviewed by a second specialist before it reaches you. These are the people who do that work - the network behind the network.

I write. Specialists review. People follow.

One desk. One founder. Nine hundred reports.

RAFES365 is not a software company. There is no growth team, no app, no roadmap. The intake is read in detail, every report is built by hand, and every specialist review happens before the protocol leaves the desk.
