A bit of context: Mike has been my trainer for more than one year and my weight has dropped ~15lbs with significant improvement in body definition, muscle building, and overall energy. I really enjoy working with Mike for 3 main reasons: 1) Punctuality & flexibility – Mike was always punctual and my session; this is exceptionally great for someone like me who has lots of stuff going on and may jump right into a conference call after my training. However, he is also very flexible around my schedule: whenever I need to cancel last minute due to work conflict, he is very understanding and works around it. 2) Mixed Practice: I work out with Mike 3 times a week and each time is scheduled to be 30 minutes. Mike set up the practice so that I get to do two rounds of exercises (each round consists of 3-4 mixed workout – chest, leg, back, etc.). He keeps track of what I have done throughout the week so that we could work out the entire body within a week. He also switches things up so my body does not get used to a particular set of routine. 3) Coaching on running – Mike is a very experienced runner and I get lots of advice from him when I was preparing for my first Chicago Marathon in 2014. I successfully completed the race thanks to Mike’s tips, advice and general encouragement.
