Programs & Guides

I'M MIKE.

In the past two years, I dropped my 5K from 20:35 to 16:56 and ran a 4:51 mile. The same month I ran the 16:56, I totaled 1,050 lb.

I've spent 15 years figuring out how to do both and I help people to do the same.

If you've been told you have to choose between being strong and being fast, you've been lied to.
