App-based fitness & nutrition programming, direct feedback, and real accountability, wherever you are in the world.
My goal is to show you that steady progress is what keeps motivation alive, not the other way around.
The problem is, steady progress only comes from having the right plan for you, and many people lack the training experience to understand what is actually sustainable, leading to all-or-nothing tendencies, burnout, and quitting before they notice results.
I work to combine proven strategies with your lifestyle, preferences, and goals, because the only plan which works is the one you can actually stick to.
Programming built around your schedule, equipment, and goals — updated as you progress.
A flexible eating plan that fits your life, with recipes that don't feel like a diet.
Regular progress reviews so your plan adjusts as fast as you do.
Message your coach any time — no call centers, no auto-replies.
Send a quick video of your lifts and get real feedback on your technique — no guesswork on whether you're doing it right.
Photos, measurements, and key lifts logged over time, so you can actually see the progress you're making.
Hi, I'm Mike, a New York City-based personal trainer with 10 years of experience in fitness and nutrition programming.
I believe that making progress on your fitness comes from slow, incremental changes that you can stick to over a lifetime. No extremes, no burnout, just sustainable progress.
I specialize in body recomposition, muscle building, fat loss, and corrective exercise for low back injuries. Whether you're starting fresh or picking back up, I'll build a plan that fits your life rather than fights it.
If you're ready to get to work, let's talk.
Work with me"I've been working out with Mike for a year now. He was able to customize the workout plan to protect my spin after back surgery and build muscle and flexibility."
"I've been training with Mike every time I'm in NYC, and he's hands down one of the best trainers I've worked with. He has the perfect balance of pushing you to your limits while still being incredibly encouraging and supportive."
"I've been training with Mike for the past few months, and I can confidently say he's the best trainer I've worked with. He's extremely knowledgeable and customizes every workout to align with your individual goals and needs."
"I have been working with Mike for a while, and I can honestly say he is exceptional at what he does. Mike has a real talent for prioritizing workouts in a way that makes every session effective and enjoyable."
"Mike is currently helping me get in shape for my wedding, but honestly, working out with him has been just as beneficial for my mental health as it has for my physical health."
"Working with Mike is a great experience. He prepares sessions thoughtfully to build on previous work and pays careful attention to form. He is knowledgeable about building strength and fitness generally. I enjoy the workouts and the time."
"What truly sets him apart is his incredible flexibility: he seamlessly adapts workouts and diet plans to my schedule, travel, injuries, or preferences, overhauling everything from hotel-friendly routines to fresh meal ideas while keeping them perfectly aligned with my goals."
"As a physician who understands human anatomy, I have a very low tolerance for gimmicks or shortcuts—and Mike keeps things honest, thoughtful, and effective. As someone who's already very active, what I appreciate most is that his training complements my lifestyle rather than competing with it."
"After training with Mike for a couple months everyone kept telling me I was in the best shape of my life!"
"Training with Mike is great experience. Mike is very knowledgeable and a motivating trainer."
"Throughout the time I've worked with him, my goals have changed quite a bit, from calisthenics to strength training to just optimizing my overall physique. Mike has always been able to adapt and had the extensive knowledge to tailor both my training and nutrition programs around whatever my current goals are."
"Solid guy unlike the rest trainers I have seen, he doesn't talk much and go right to it. Also very flexible and very easy going guy. 10/10 recommended."
"On top of that, he is such a kind person, always in a good mood, and very willing to be flexible with his schedule. Cannot recommend him enough!"
If at any time over the first three months of working together you are dissatisfied for any reason, you will receive all of your money back, no questions asked.
As often as you'd like.
Formal check-ins to review your progress and satisfaction are scheduled bi-weekly for 30 minutes, though we can meet in addition to this on an as-needed basis.
As often as you'd like. I will respond promptly during business hours (6am-6pm Monday-Friday).
No. Programs are built to accommodate the selection of equipment you have access to, whether that be at home, outdoor workout facilities, or formal gym spaces.
My goal is to give you the tools you need to go and make progress toward your goals on your own in as little time as possible. That being said, I generally recommend committing to a minimum of 3 months. This gives us time to evaluate your progress and understand what works for you.
