Introduction: Motivate Me Mike is a 1-on-1 Personal Training Gym. ✨ A gym that focuses on individualized fitness prescription. A gym that is more inclusive, wellness minded, and motivating. A gym dedicated to helping EVERYONE become their best SELF and live their best LIFE! Why? Because, wellness is not as simple as it seems. And the copy/paste gyms out there work for less than 10% of the population. That is unacceptable! I opened Motivate Me Mike because most gyms are failing to help 90% their members reach their goals. But we ALL deserve to be at our best! We ALL deserve to experience life with a healthy body and mind! So we ALL deserve a place where a trainer like me makes the process as simple and enjoyable as possible. Using the best of exercise science, exercise psychology, and individualized prescription! A TRULY motivating and effective experience. I'm highly certified, highly experienced, and have helped over 300 individuals 1-on-1 since 2013. And I'd love to help YOU TOO!

Mike was first trainer. He is a very knowledgeable professional. I never felt as good as I did after my workouts with him. His routines were variable so every session was fresh and far from monotonous. I liked his holistic approach, not only tailoring my workouts, but also counseling me about proper nutrition. Mike never made false promises about workout results. He always set realistic and attainable goals. I got a job offer that is taking me to another city. I told Mike I wish I could take him along. I will miss working with Mike and his style. He is definitely a motivator!!! I would recommend Mike without hesitation to others.

I would encourage anyone to reach out to Mike and his trainers to help meet their fitness goals. I sought personal training for the first time after battling with a shoulder injury. There was some indication that weakness in my back and shoulders was causing unusual muscle strain in certain areas, so it wasn't getting better, and I wanted to put that theory to the test by building those muscles in a safe way. After a consultation with Mike, who focuses primarily on functional fitness, I was in. He was able to tailor a routine for my needs, and after a month or so, the pain was almost completely gone. When necessary, he modified exercises to help not overexert certain muscles, which allowed a very gradual build to where I am now. I can still feel that there was damage to the shoulder, but I can't even describe how much more functional and capable I feel. I've since moved into the group classes, and thoroughly enjoy them. It has become a highlight of the week. I'm grateful that I not only found a solution to my issues, but a great trainer, and all around friendly, fun guy, that opened the door to a new enjoyment of exercise. Shoulder healed, but I'm not stopping!

a BIG 5-STAR shout out to Mike and the staff at Motivate Me Mike! Thanks to one-on-one fitness training for the first four months of my journey to become a "better me," followed by Mike's Summit Strength Training for the last three months, I've now lost over 40 pounds slowly and steadily. This was in a healthy manner with plenty of exercise and through eating habits that stress "moderation." No fad diets, no binge-exercising. Just the way that is encouraged by the experts.I am in the best physical shape in over 20 years, and this is thanks to Mike's Summit Strength and careful guidance.A Friendly staff, and a facility that is welcoming and well-equipped round out this 5-STAR experience.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have 3 certifications: An NSCA CPT, a CrossFit Level 1, and an APK Level 2.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
People have been telling me I should be a trainer my whole life, but I never took them seriously until I looked into it one day. I had always thought of trainers as fancy rep counters or just someone to say "keep it up!", but properly certified trainers can be so much more. Add on wellness coaching and BOOM... I could change lives and really make a difference. After I realized that I signed up for exercise science courses at LCCC. The rest is history.
What types of customers have you worked with?
Boy howdy! I've trained them all! Clients with anxiety and depression. Clients with obesity, asthma, and diabetes. Clients with Parkinson's, cerebral palsy, and arthritis. Clients with with hip, knee, and shoulder replacements. Clients with post-rehab back, knee, and shoulder injuries. Clients who need to pass police, military, or fire physical tests. Clients with basketball, lacrosse, and soccer performance goals. Client's kids who hate sports, but need a fitness they enjoy. Clients with strength, flexibility, and endurance goals. But mostly... People who want to look better, feel better, and live a better life. But could use some instruction, accountability, and motivation. 🗻✨ Preferred Client: The Never Been Fit Injured People Anxious People Older People People Who Have All But Given Up
