Meet Our Coaches
Michael - Owner
I am passionate about empowering others to achieve the success they desire and deserve. I’m a teacher at heart with over 25 years experience listening, observing, and communicating to help people improve themselves. I’ve been a teacher and coach in multiple industries, with the last decade helping people to optimize their health and fitness through customized training, nutrition and lifestyle coaching.
I love working with clients who are motivated to learn, energized by the process and the journey ahead. My goal is to create a positive and supportive training environment that inspires people to make long-term fitness and lifestyle changes.
I strive to lead by example, embracing new challenges and growth opportunities both in my own training and my constant pursuit of excellence and knowledge. I have sought out the leading masters in the fields of strength and condition, rehabilitation, and behavior to study under and learn from. Some of those include James FitzGerald, Charles Poliquin, Eric Cressey, Mike Robertson, Dr. Andreo Spina, Dr. John Demartini and more.
I believe that real, sustainable health and fitness is available to all of us right now, and the key is taking that first step. I believe in not simply doing work, but doing work that matters – work that has purpose, a plan, and an outcome in mind.
My personal joy and passion in fitness is Weightlifting.
