Our Mark also holds back. He’s like Gohan, all the power, but has fear of using it.

Fear of losing control so he doesn't put in 100% he holds back even while training.

That’s objectively so fucking dumb and they should have someone work through that with him. He knows the viltrumires are coming and there are several of them at least, that he himself has seen. Anissa dog walked him without breaking a sweat, he’s the most potent defense earth has and he’s encumbering his own ability to defend the earth because he’s undercutting his training and improvement. The notion that anyone would countenance mark pulling punches because he’s worried about being strong is madness

When mark was flying earlier in the year he and his father spoke about how flying was an act of physical exertion for viltrumites. I doubt mark could safely fly at top speeds on earth but he can enter space at will and it seems he’s remiss in not practicing there. As for other physical capacities I imagine collaboration between himself and Cecil could produce facilities which could enable him to train his abilities. Of all of the superheroed characters depicted in the show, mark is easily both the least experienced and the least routinely training
