Our chief want is life is someone who will make us do what we can.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson

I have been training with Mychael for a year and a half.  He has helped me with both a workout regimen and a nutrition plan.  Not only have I lost 50 pounds, but I've kept it off over time thanks to all that I learned from Mychael.  What really sets him apart from other trainers in L.A. is his genuine concern for people's health.  He's incredibly knowledgeable.  Mychael's not just collecting a paycheck - he truly cares about improving your life.  I highly recommend taking Mychael's classes or private sessions if you want a total body workout and have fun while doing it.  You will look and feel amazing in no time!  Mychael is simply the best!

Mychael has helped me to achieve goals that I, frankly, never thought possible.  I have been overweight since childhood and Mychael has helped me to lose 70 lbs!  In the first six months alone, I dropped 50 lbs through a combination of workout and nutrition programs provided by Mychael.  I've gone from 40%+ bodyfat to UNDER 18%!  Mychael's been a joy to work with - he'll push you but at a pace that is good for you and where you will see great results.

I wanted to give you a shout-out because I stepped on the scale today and saw that I've lost well almost 60 pounds. This is in HUGE part due to YOU and the things you taught me so THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! :-)

We really love your class.  You are truly a motivational and spirited trainer.  Thank you again for being Fantastic!
~Ben D.
Almost a year ago I was feeling fat, frumpy and insecure.  I hired Mychael as my personal trainer hoping to loose a few pounds.  He has helped me to improve my endurance, and balance, and increase my muscle definition.  Most importantly, he helped me to enjoy working out. He developed a nutrition plan that I could stick to monitoring my food diary for areas of improvement. 
Mychael's vast knowledge of physiology is refreshing. He focuses on proper form to avoid injury. Each workout is different, challenging and fun with a focus on improving core strength, muscle tone and stamina

Boot Camp this morning ROCKED!!!  Amazing improvisation!
I've been going to your boot camp for over a year now.  Technically a west la class would be closer and more convenient, but we really love your motivation and feel very comfortable working out with you.  But I have to say, this was our best boot camp yet.
~Heather W. ​
Just wanted to send you a little note to say thank you.  We absolutely LOVE your class and are excited about continuing. I can already feel muscles that I use to feel when I had a good workout with my prior trainer! Lol
I know you are probably use to complaining and whining, but we just wanted to say thank you for all of your efforts and guidance!
~Devon S.
I really Mychael’s Boot Camp workout program, it is the most fun and effective workout I’ve found since I moved to the United States 6 years ago. The Marina del Rey location is very convenient, plus it has some sandy sections in the harbor (oooh so tuff), picnic tables we use for the workouts, and overhead canopies to keep us sheltered in bad weather.  Mychael is very helpful and puts together a challenging workout.

Can't say enough good things about this boot camp!  It has given me more energy throughout the day and has helped me loose weight for my upcoming wedding.  Mychael is awesome and I love the people in the class. It's a great workout!
~Lauren S.
It's all about getting me motivated... if you are even remotely competitive -with yourself or with others- then this boot camp is perfect. People come in all different shapes, sizes and fitness levels, however, Mychael finds a way to make it appropriately challenging for everyone. There is some routine to the class, but every day we work different muscle groups and do different activities. 
For me, the best part is watching the sun rise over the Marina. Breathing in fresh air as I drip sweat instead of sucking in recycled air in the gym. I love the Marina del Rey Bootcamp, and enjoy working out with Mychael. I highly recommend the camp!!
~Colleen M.
I am a procrastinator when it comes to working out but I'm also highly competitive and this pushes me to the limits. Mychael knows his stuff and is willing to correct your form so that you achieve the best results and he really cares about the clients. It is very affordable and over all I feel that I am getting more out of it than I pay. It's only been a few weeks but I feel like my energy level has improved and I am starting to notice changes in my body. If you are a person who has a distaste for conventional gyms then Mychael’s Fit Camp is definitely the way to go!

Your class has really changed my life. Before I started the class, I had lower back pain, and my brother, who is a chiropractor,  told me that I needed to do more core training.  Since I started the class, I have lost approx 10lbs, my lower back doesn't hurt anymore, and I am awake and energized the rest of the day.  So I just wanted to say thanks again.
~Mike S.
Mychael, I just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your help in the past 3 months leading up to my wedding.  You have helped me feel and look my best, dropping 17 lbs and losing 12 inches.  I had to have my dress taken in two times, but I was ecstatic that I had to do so.  You’re the best!

I've been attending Mychael's boot camp classes for over a year now and can honestly say he makes exercising both fun and rewarding !!!  When the alarm goes off at 5:30am, I just remind myself of the gorgeous landscape we meet at (beach at sunrise!) , the variety of exercises we do so it's never boring, and the toned results I see afterwards.   You truly get a full body workout with every class.  And because he varies it up every time, the classes fly by.  In addition, Mychael is supportive, passionate and genuinely wants to see people be as fit and healthy as they can be.  He's a great guy to have on your side no matter what your personal quest is. Whether you're looking for weight loss, muscle toning, or general health and fitness...he can customize your training for you personally.  I'd work out with him every day if I could !! 
~Glynna G.
Mychael's awesome.  I love him.  He's what's kept me coming back for over a year.  He's terrific.  He mixes things up, it's always different, you never know what to expect, I'm slightly sore all the time which I think means he's working me to my capacity without debilitating me.  He's encouraging, he pushes you when you're slacking, cuts you slack on the days you just don't have it in you.
~Heather H. ​
Can’t wait to do your bootcamp...AGAIN!  Seriously, it toned me and helped me lose 10 lbs!

I was hesitant to take a bootcamp-style class but ended up loving the classes taught by Mychael.  I have improved my strength, flexibility, balance and stamina while losing 20 pounds.  Mychael manages to keep the classes fun and challenging even as I continue to improve.  His classes are perfect for people of all fitness levels because he is in tune with his students.  Not only does he know his stuff, Mychael knows how to push you forward to reach your goals.  He's a great trainer and a great guy.
~Brian D.
I love going to your classes.  They are torturous but GREAT!
~Eleonor E.
I just started my 2nd session.  I haven't worked out in years, so I was worried about what I could do in class. It's hard! I have a love/hate relationship with it. I hate it when I'm doing it, but I LOVE the results! You get a personal trainer workout at a fraction of the cost. Plus I love it when I read magazines about effective workout moves and I think: "we do those!"
Mychael pushes me more than I would push myself working out alone at home or in a gym. I've done more than I would have thought I could do. Mychael is very good at watching the group to see if we're ready to move on or if we need a break, so I've never felt the need to "cheat" so I have stamina for the next thing.
We do circuit style training with cardio and strength training. I've gotten a lot stronger in the last 5 weeks, and I can run further and for longer as well! I 5 weeks I've noticed a big difference, so I'm curious about at 10 weeks, and then 15....
~Mary S.
Best fitness value in LA. Mychael will give you a great workout with a lot of motivation. The small size of the group allows for personal attention, but at a much cheaper price than a private instructor.

LOVE Mychael’s Boot Camp.  HATE the gym.  It's an early rise to get out there for your day's workout, but you will realize how much energy you have and also realize how much time it saves.  Working out in the evenings or at night keeps me awake anyway.
 Mychael is awesome.  He motivates you to get as much of the workout in, but hey... if you can't finish the last pushup it's no big deal.  If I had to do the same workout alone at a gym there's no way I would have as much motivation.  I wouldn't even know what exercises to do.  Mychael truly encourages you to do your best and I can see the results.

 Three months after my first class and I'm an addict.

~Sandra B.
I’ve taken several boot camps and this is the best. Mychael takes the time to help everyone with their techniques and is a great guy.  I’ve been going for a month and have never been in better shape.
~Ed P.
Since training with Mychael, I have lost close to 35 pounds following his simple nutrition and exercise programs. Mychael's approach is simple: maximize content of calories consumed and exercise to build muscle. 
I work with Mychael 3 times a week at his boot camps. Fun exercise that really works. The workouts are different every day so you never get bored.  While I am older than most participants I never feel as if I can't keep up. Mychael pushes me to do my best but never pushes too hard. 
The nutrition plan that Mychael put me on has worked wonders. I am much more conscious of the food I put in my mouth and the amount of calories I consume. He started me keeping a journal and the motto is "if you bite it, you write it!" it is amazing how the simple act of logging ones food intake can make drastic changes. 
I recommend Mychael to anyone who wants a healthier life. Whether it's weight loss, muscle gain or better food knowledge Mychael is an expert!
~Theresa B.
The class is difficult enough that I see and feel the difference, and easy enough that I don’t feel like giving up. I actually look forward to it and want to continue. I have spent the past few years doing what I wanted to do; I now am doing what I need to do.

I've been doing Fit Club for over a year now, so obviously I LOVE IT! It's the best decision I ever made for my health and well-being and it's also fun. Nothing beats working out on the beach while the sun is coming up and the trainer, Mychael, is the best!!!!
~Bryan G.
This morning boot camp is the best! Mychael is really supportive and makes the class a lot of fun.
~Kristina W.
This is by far the best thing I ever have done for myself! This is a fantastic way to begin your day. Mychael is great, he keeps you moving and motivated throughout the entire session. And for those who think oh no I can't, take it from me who will turn 50 this September...Yes you can! This program is for all age groups and really pushes you to achieve. Just going 3 times a week has made me leaner, stronger and toned. It has changed my fitness life and I will be signing up again. Seriously just give it a try...It will make a difference!
~Tracey B.
Mychael really knows what he is doing.  He ensures proper form and always makes sure we get a great workout.  Aside from the great trainer, I've stayed with the Boot Camp for over 2 years now because the location is great and the price is right.  I highly recommend it as your regular fitness routine. I plan on signing up for the entire year!!  Yes, that's how much I love this program.

This is, by far, the best thing I have ever done for myself!


I have been working out with Mychael for 3 1/2 years now, and I credit him as the major reason I have improved my conditioning over this period of time.  My fitness level was above average, but as I got older it became more challenging :)  Not only have my stamina and balance greatly improved, but I feel stronger in my core than ever before.  At my age, I very much doubt I could have achieved this on my own without Mychael's help.  
Not only is Mychael quite knowledgeable about physiology, he has a genuine concern for the physical well-being of his clients and their achieving long-term health benefits.  He closely monitors posture and form to avoid injury, and he constantly emphasizes the importance of nutrition in the overall equation.  He helps you to reach your goals, whatever they are... With Mychael's guidance and motivation, I have gained muscle, become more toned AND lost 21 pounds.  Talk about results!  
While you can certainly go at your own pace during the workouts, Mychael still encourages you to push yourself to see if you can do even more.  He will suggest alternatives if you are unable to do a particular exercise due to past injuries, limitations, etc.  More importantly, he keeps the sessions energetic, interesting...and FUN!  We are always doing something different and working the ENTIRE body that includes balance and core strength, resistance, interval and endurance/cardio training.  I think Mychael is an excellent trainer who knows just how to push me in a way that makes me want to do more.  Can't do better than that.  
In short, I look forward to each session and leave both physically and mentally stronger - It is my favorite way to start the day.  While I've been inspired by Mychael, because of what he's accomplished with physical fitness -- He just completed an Ironman Competition -- It is his personality and encouragement that keep me a loyal client.  Also, his experience and level of professionalism are truly exceptional.  I would recommend Mychael to anyone looking for a dedicated, knowledgeable trainer who can make getting stronger and healthier a fun and rewarding journey!
