Science-based training for serious lifters. I hold a Master's in Exercise Science and apply evidence-based methods to every program. Whether you're chasing a powerlifting total or optimizing body composition, I use data-driven approaches with regular testing and adjustments. No bro-science here.

Elite programming
The level of detail in Mike's programming is insane. Every rep range, every rest period, every exercise selection has a reason behind it. My body composition has changed dramatically in 6 months.

Not for everyone
Mike is clearly brilliant, but his coaching style is very analytical. If you want a hype man, look elsewhere. If you want someone who will optimize every variable, he's your guy.

Best powerlifting coach in Portland
Mike peaked me perfectly for my last meet. Hit 9 for 9 with a 50 lb total PR. His understanding of periodization and peaking is unmatched in the Portland area.

Data-driven results
Love the evidence-based approach. Mike actually reads research papers and applies them to training. The data tracking is impressive. Sometimes feels a bit clinical, but results don't lie.

Science meets strength
Mike's approach is incredibly analytical. DEXA scans, velocity tracking, regular strength assessments — he leaves nothing to chance. My deadlift went from 405 to 500 in a year.
