Mike was my cycling coach for 3 years. During that time I had significant improvements that were noticed by my team mates and race results. I got started in bicycle racing at 48 and had my best years with Mike's guidance and support.I would recommend him to anyone looking for cycling specific improvements.

Shane Gibson

Sr. Principal Infrastructure Architect

I have worked with Mike as a cycling coach for three years now. Mike is dedicated, passionate, and works hard to tailor a program to the individuals specific goals and interests. If you're looking to become an Elite cyclist that competes that the highest levels, Mike can put together a proven winning program for you. If you're just looking to get a little stronger and faster on the bike in the time you can devote to the program - he'll do that too.

The flexibility and willingness to tailor a specific program for each individual is one of his best assets. In addition, Mike mixes up several different styles and types of training programs along with sport specific training. This allows you to stay engaged and avoid getting "bored" with sport specific repeats and doldrums.

Terence Rokop

Software Engineer at Drobo, Inc.

Mike is an immensely creative and diverse trainer, complementing teaching the technique of fundamental movements such as squats and deadlifts with a wide variety of work on rotation, mobility, core strength, balance, and in general the shoring up of whatever weaknesses his broad array of exercises (many of his own making) turns up. In addition to the workouts themselves, he provides people with instruction in nutrition and recovery that they can put to use between training days. His breadth of knowledge and experience, as well as his intelligence and communication, allow him to serve a range of clients from athletes seeking improved performance to the injured or long-sedentary seeking the restoration of health. I have been training with Mike for more years than I can remember, and hope to continue to do so as long as he works in my vicinity.
