"When I first started I had next to no experience working out and I couldn't move much weight. With Mike's guidance and expertise, I recently joined the 1,000 pound club - with a 405 lb deadlift, 345 lb squat, and 255 bench press. I feel much stronger and I'm comfortable in the gym now. His disciplined approach and motivating attitude makes achieving results fun. I can't wait to crush more!" - Andre, 30
“When I was in high school I was extremely athletic, a pro cheerleader. I moved to Toronto and became extremely lazy and unhealthy. I started training with Mike 3-4 days a week. At first I hated going to the gym, but as time went by I started to see Mike as a friend. He kept pushing me harder each workout and I'd even get excited to go to the weight room to see how much more I could lift. The changes I've noticed are remarkable. I can feel confident in a bathing suit instead of hiding it under a dress. After 8 months, I'm down 47 pounds!” - Jessica, 24
“When I met Mike, I was feeling out of shape and frustrated. I had put on some weight and decided to get back to the gym. When I resumed my usual routine, I wasn't getting any results at all. Mike tailored a program that got me results! With his guidance, I got back to the level of fitness that I wanted.” - Karen, 51
“Before Mike, I hated going to the gym and wasted my time doing ineffective exercises. I had worked out with a trainer before but with no real success. Mike's training completely transformed my body and exceeded my expectations. I am down 8 dress sizes, lost about 40lbs, and I gained lean muscle. With Mike's coaching, fitness and health has become an integral part of my life for the first time. That not only affected how I look, it has improved my mental health and kept my energy levels up for my busy life." - Paloma, 32
“Training with Mike has been a great experience! He is very knowledgeable and personable. Mike has helped me alleviate my chronic back pain from work by focusing on strengthening my core and correcting my posture.” - Robert, 35
“After already failing once while working with a personal trainer in Ottawa, I wasn't sure what my experience with Mike would be like. He was motivating and encouraging while being knowledgeable and professional. He challenged me without berating me. He wouldn't let me be down on myself. I was surprised at what I could accomplish and he kept pushing me with new attainable goals. Working out with Mike isn't work; it's a rewarding experience.” - Michelle, 48
“Mike was my trainer for about 6 months and in that time he demonstrated his knowledge, ability and passion for personal training. Given that I was no stranger to the gym, he was able to gear our workouts to maximize my growth potential. He also gave me diet tips and supplement advice to keep me on track with my goals. After all was said and done, I was able to gain about 1" of lean muscle mass all around my body. I highly recommend him whether you're a beginner or just need that extra push in your training routine.” - Jon, 47
“Mike helped me establish specific goals that gave my workouts a sense of purpose and direction. Mike’s greatest strength is understanding where people want to get by listening and adapting a tailor-made routine for each of his clients. I never see two of his clients doing the exact same thing. The results speak for themselves in terms of increased strength and overall fitness.” - Steven, 32
“When I began training with Mike, I was most interested in numerical and physical improvements. As I trained with him, I realized how little I knew about the mechanics of the human body. Yes, I reached certain physical goals that I had set out for, but where I really felt I had gained the most, was in my knowledge of my body.” - Josh, 25
