Have been working with Mike for over a decade. Extremely knowledgeable on fitness and health in general. His workouts always change which make them both challenging and fun. Have seen him train high level athletes as well as someone new to working out. Highly recommend.

Ive been training with Mike for over 15 years. He introduced me to strength training. Prior to that, it was all cardio. Boy, what a difference this made to my overall fitness by adding strength training. Ive never been stronger and know this will help me maintain muscle mass as I age. Mike makes it fun and enjoyable and genuinely cares about his clients. The part I enjoy the most is the variety. Mikes knowledge of fitness shows in every workout. He mixes it up so you never get bored.I enjoy the boot camp environment and highly recommend Mike to anyone that wants to up their fitness game. Hell definitely help you achieve your goals.

It's been an absolute honor to train with you for over 15 years—you’ve truly been with me through every boot camp workout challenge and always come out stronger! I’m thrilled that strength training has made such a big difference for you. Your consistency and drive are truly inspiring, and I’m so proud of all the progress you’ve made. It’s clients like you who make this journey so rewarding, and I can’t wait to see you continue to thrive and crush your goals! Thanks for always bringing your energy, and for recommending me to others. Here's to many more years of strength and fun....and don't forget BURPEES! 💪🔥

Mike is an awesome trainer who I have been going to for 9 years. Besides his extensive knowledge of exercise and it's physiological benefits, he keeps the exercise workouts challenging and interesting. He is very approachable, nice, genuine, and fun. I highly recommend Mike!

Mike is honestly the best personal trainer I have ever worked with. He does a great job of mixing up the exercises so that it doesnt get boring. He also understands the human body and can suggest stretches in case something hurts. He is also just a really nice guy so spending time with him is always enjoyable. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone who wants to get and stay in shape.

Your dedication is what makes it all possible, and I'm excited to continue helping you reach your fitness goals one slow High Intensity Rep at a time or with a morning burpee. Thanks again for the recommendation! Let’s keep pushing forward! 💪
