Within 5 minutes of meeting Mike, I knew I wanted to work with him. I told him my fitness goals & he responded
"If you take one step forward, I'll take one. If you take 2, I'll take two"
& he 1000% meant it. In the last 4 months I've worked with mike, I not only completed a life goal of stepping on stage as a competitor but I'm the healthiest as well.
The most mind boggling thing working with mike is easily his knowledge of body building and everything that comes with it. From nutrition to muscle growth and he just naturally shares it with you as you work

Picture on the left taken on May 2017 between 128/130lbs , picture on the right taken on September 2021 and my weight is currently 100lbs.
I started working with Mike around September of 2019 only with nutrition and working out during 2020. While he helped me to break my plateau, and learn more in depth about nutrition, he has also been working with me on changing body composition and building muscle.
He is extremely knowledgeable in both areas, Training&coaching and nutrition. You never get bored while working out since he always finds ways to be original and give you variety of workouts

I've trained with Mike for two months now and it was extremely helpful. I believe that if you're gonna dedicate time out of your day everyday to something you need to have a strong foundation. Mike can and will provide that. Extremely detailed diet & workout plan to fit my needs and my life style. Will be going back when I need more training. Thank you.

Beginning of this year I made a personal goal of mine to gain weight and start going to the gym to look better. I didn’t know what exactly to do and knew I needed proper guidance in order to do things right. Thats when I met Mike and he taught me everything there is to know about building muscle. He taught me everything from proper form, working out certain muscle groups, nutrition, dieting, and much more. I can definitely say my quality of life has improved and have made going to the gym a new hobby of mine. I achieved my personal goal within 6 months thanks to him and will continue to use the

This is my second session with Mike and he has changed the way I look at food and exercise. Though I have been lifting for years Mike took the time to build a program that fit me and my schedule. He taught me about food so that what I ate would benefit my body and was patient with me when I wasn't as faithful to the program as I should have been. Mike ultimate goal was to get me to a place where I could continue to be successful even if we didn't continue together. I am down 24 lbs. and still have my mass and my strength I am thankful for Mike and his efforts with me.

It's been a challenge finding a nutrition regiment that would hit my weight loss goals and sustain a healthy lifestyle. After finding Mike as the top fitness and nutrition training in my area, he walked me through a detailed yet straightforward plan.
Given the pandemic, Mike met with me by phone and captured weekly results and data points through Google Docs. We started our journey with a BMI test too. He guided me calmly through every step of the journey and I scheduled catchup calls through his website appointment booking tool. The process was all easy, clear, and friendly.

I began working with Mike in May 2019. Over the past two years I have received amazing feedback and results. Mike really cares for his clients and goes above and beyond to make sure his client's needs are met. He not only focuses on exercise, but also incorporates nutrition and stretching for a well rounded transformation. Highly recommend his services. No matter what your health and fitness goals are he can help you meet them!

I’ve had a great experience working with Coach Mike! He has a great vibe and energy and truly cares about his clients.
Mike has helped me bounce back from the pandemic and not having access to a gym for the majority of the year. I am now in my best overall shape.
I have referred friends and family and I would highly suggest that you check him out!

I travel 50% of the time for work - so with the current lockdown, I thought it'd be good to utilize my time being local to work with a trainer. I contacted Mike based on online reviews and mutual connections, and am glad I did.
Mike taught me about portion control and nutrition, and with a disciplined cadence of food intake - especially before working out, I find that the timing and level of my energy is optimized. I was able to lift heavier.
Mike also coached me with new exercises, and helped with achieving efficiency - I was able to lift just 3 days a week and maintain consistent results.

Mike is awesome!!! Highly highly recommend. I just moved out of the area, but I trained with Mike for the past 5 years and learned so much. Very sad to lose him as a trainer as I can honestly say I looked forward to every session. The biggest aspect that differentiated Mike from other trainers I had previously is how well he really listens to your unique fitness goals from day one, and his wholistic approach to training. Not only does he talk you through techniques to of course the exercise and weight training side of getting in shape, but he is very knowledgeable about nutrition and food as well

I contacted Mike after being dared by friends to do a show. I had 2 1/2 weeks to cut and this was our results. It was my first bodybuilding show and we took second place. If you're looking for bodybuilding, general fitness, strength and conditioning he can and will meet any goal you need. Mike's programming is not some cookie cutter BS like 99% of the coaches out there. His programming is personalized so you know he's taking care of you.

About near the end of 2019, I've searched constantly for a prep coach that's local in the San Jose area, and I've happened to cross Mike's IG page (@shmockey). I was aiming for Spectrum Fitness Governors cup on March 28, doing both classic physique and open bodybuilding. I can tell you first thing off the bat, Mike knows what's he dealing with. Training, nutrition, supplementation to making posing adjustments, just all the ins and out of it. Throughout prep, we did weekly check ins, however there's days where I check in with him more than 2-3x a week. He is just a

I've been training with Mike for 2 years now and I am not planning on stopping any time soon!
He's helped me achieve my fitness and physique goals, all while helping me to learn my body and understand why and how my body works the way it does.
I am an armature Bodybuilder so my training and diet plans with Mike were very detailed, but I have referred friends to Mike that were just regular people trying to get in shape for the summer or a wedding whatever.
Not only is Mike very well educated in his craft but you can see his passion for his job in the effort he gives to his clients

I have not done much personal training and coaching before but from my limited experience, Mike exceeded my wife's and my expectations tenfold. We wanted to sign up for a crash diet and fitness plan for a few weeks before our vacation but after 3 weeks of tandem training with Mike, we want to sign up for more. He pushed/pushes us past what we thought was possible but in an encouraging way. He takes our limitations into consideration and custom fits our workouts to maximize the benefit. I honestly didn't believe it would be possible to see so much improvement in such a short time. I feel

I've been seeing Mike for about 7 months now. In those 7 months I have went from 193 lbs to 155 lbs. He has given me nutrition advice and helped train me according to my body type. Mike has my business because he is passionate about health and fitness and very knowledgeable and easy to work with and has workout plan according to your goals. I really appreciate him and he has made me love having an active lifestyle and working out almost every day. He is a great motivation in my life. Thanks for all your help Mike.

Mike is an exceptional and extraordinary trainer.
Why? First, Mike is an example of the work he does with his clients. You might say, "well great, he's built, but does that make him a great trainer?" Fair point... let's consider:
Mike has a sustained business in the Bay Area - that by itself is a notable accomplishment and speaks to the clients that use him.
Mike works with a wide range of clients, including my son who has Down syndrome. Mike really knew nothing about DS when our son started with him. However, he took time to learn and he listens to our son. As well, he pushes

This is about my second year training with Mike, he is wonderful! I really never thought I would achieve my goals but because of his help I made it. I'm beyond happy and confident because of my transformation. Not only is he flexible with his schedule for you but he will do anything to help you be happy with your process. He made my meals fun to eat and my workouts do-able. Highly recommend him as a trainer :)

If you're looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, friendly, supportive, patient, will push you to be your better self, and truly cares about helping you reach your goals, look no further! Mike has it all and lives the lifestyle too, which makes him very understanding no matter where you are on your fitness journey.
One thing I really like about him is that he doesn't make his clients feel intimidated to ask questions or express any concerns. It's important to be able to be 100% honest with a trainer since that plays a part in letting him know what changes to make in order to

Mike in my opinion one of the best trainers in San Jose! He has helped me transform my body and really understand diet and nutrition! If you're looking for results look no more he'll get you there! As a personal trainer myself I see many "trainers" that pretty much are there just to take your money and run. Mike was there every step of the way until I killed my goal!!! Two years strong and I will continue to work with him!
