About this service
1-on-1 personal strength training is the core of what I do. Built around traditional compound exercises, drop sets, body-weight strength training, and physical outdoor work like running, hiking, and basic calisthenics. All supported by yoga-style stretching and a real understanding of clean eating.
I'm here to help you break free from inactivity, your gym rut, or advance your fitness. You need a push in the right direction and accountability. One or two 30-minute sessions per week will change your life.
You'll be amazed how much we can accomplish in 30 minutes, how quickly your strength improves, and how much you gain as you navigate life. Learn to reframe your time and thoughts about working out, and see how it can all be naturally and intuitively integrated into your life.

Real client reviews
"Professional, personable, and extremely effective. Mike listened to my specific needs and helped me push past my comfort zone safely. I've seen great results and feel so much better."
"My husband and I have been working out with Michael for about a month. He's the real deal. I was working out beforehand, but I feel muscles I never thought I had. He's the right mix of torture and making you wanna come back for more! Best thing we've done for our health."
"I've been training with Mike for close to a year now and have seen great results. My strength has increased exponentially, and I feel better overall with my body and mentally. He not only helps you become stronger, but he also coaches you on diet when you ask. If anyone is stuck in a rut or doing the same old routine without getting the results you were hoping for, I would recommend working with Mike."
