As someone that is coming from an 80lb transformation, Maik has really helped me understand what it means to lead a healthy life with good nutrition and fitness. His methodology with regards to food is pragmatic and spot on. He will help you set up a meal plan for life. With regards to exercise - he is one of the few honorable trainers and fitness professionals out there that refuses to be a cop out. This guy knows his stuff, and results are imminent. The craziest thing of it all, is that the simplest most basic things are what works. Maik understands this, if you don't believe me, just look at the way the dude is built. In effect, his genius is cutting through all the marketing and misinformation that overwhelms the world around this billion dollar industry. If you are serious about learing, training, eating, and being involved, Maik is your guy. He is ALWAYS available inside and outside of the gym. This is not your usual trainer, he is a friend and a life coach that genuinely cares about his clients. He will NEVER waste your time, and you should provide the same courtesy in exchange. Maik has helped me and continues to do so on a daily basis. I am forever grateful to you Maik.

I found Maik and team through Thumbtack and was at first skeptical. I've seen a few trainers and they all seemed to get bored quickly and not really care about what i want/need. His whole team is the complete opposite. Along with the awesome weekly training sessions that i see with his teammate Anke, I get routine emails, checking up on my progression and keeping me honest. They aren't just about that one hour session - Maik and team want you to actually succeed in your weight loss/ muscle gain goals. I have a very strict diet and instead of berating me for not eating meat etc., they did research and found ways to incorporate more protein into my diet...on my terms. My goals feel more realistic and attainable then ever before.
The GBE class is also really awesome and works muscles i didn't know i had. Its a bit scary walking into a room with a trainer who is all muscle but Mo was attentive, smart and patient.
Im only on week 3 but im excited to start seeing those results!

I booked Maik for a 1h session to check my current status and ask for advice on (muscular) disbalances and nutrition. All questions could be answered, I enjoyed the session a lot; Maik is an expert in his field. That made it a 4 star rating. The fifth one he got from me since he did a number of follow-ups, asking me what works/what does not and if needed hiw to adjust. Excellent!

I found Maik through Thumbtack, never having worked with a trainer before. I am not a gym person, and never have been. But I decided to make a change this year, and he has really helped. I choose him because he seemed to really know his stuff, and he does.
He is friendly, with no attitude, and really wants you to succeed. He is also very thorough. He is always checking up on how you are doing, and providing homework to do on the weekends. He also provided me with a diet that I found easy to follow and one that has also given me more energy, and stamina.
If you are looking for a qualified, friendly and very thorough trainer, I can't recommend him enough.

Great consultation session with Greg, one of the staff trainers and very quick follow-up with nutritional and other information.

I write for fitness magazines such as FitnessRX and Muscle & Fitness, and teach undergraduate classes at New York University, it is crucial that I stay up to date on the latest developments in the fitness industry.
