I work alongside beginner runners to help them break through their own limits. Learn how to progress from never running to completing a 5K, a 5-miler, or more.
Hello, I’m Michael Baker. I am a 50-year-old strength trainer, certified personal trainer, running coach, health coach & yoga teacher. I'm also a former yoga studio owner, and dedicated health and wellness practitioner with over 30 years of experience. I began "Get Up Earlier" (GetUpEarlier.com) because getting up earlier was step 1 in transforming my routine and overall well-being, especially after spending years sitting at a computer as a digital professional.

My primary goal is to bridge the gap from inactivity and poor diet to strength and healthy habits. I focus on helping people rely on intuition, providing a personal experience, and introducing them to weights, along with fundamental nutrition knowledge and concepts. While my own marathon training or strength achievements might seem extreme, I'm not trying to turn anyone into a bodybuilder or marathon runner. I'm simply showing that, even at 50, these things are possible. It's about inspiration and helping people make realistic, sustainable changes. [reach out here for a free training & coaching session]
