About Mike
Mike is a Hockessin resident and NASM Certified Personal Trainer. He is a lifelong athlete who found himself in a familiar situation to many people across the country. In 2020, he and his wife had their first child 2 months after the pandemic started and began working from home. This quickly led to weight gain of over 50 pounds which he struggled to combat. Mike successfully lost this weight and more after many ups and downs and was inspired to become a personal trainer.
Mike believes in making workouts enjoyable and tailoring programs to what the body is capable of now, not what an individual could have potentially done in the past. Having come from the corporate world while raising a child in his 40s, he understands the complexity of work/life/health balance and strives to make sure everyone can do so while having fun doing and feeling their best. Mike is an avid golfer and enjoys coaching his son’s soccer and baseball teams.

My golf game and stamina has improved immensely since I started working with Mike last fall. I have worked with many personal trainers over the years . The results I have gotten with the golf strength and flexibility training with Mike far exceeds previous trainers. Specifically, my drivers are 20 to 30 yards longer and are much straighter.
My new found stamina on the golf course has enabled me to be competitive with much younger golfers in statewide competitions. I look forward to our training sessions because of his golf expertise and great sense of humor.
Thank you Mike for keeping my interest in improving my golf game at an age when many of my friends are giving up golf.
