My desires for you and everyone who trusts me as their coach:

Resilience: an ability to withstand uncertainty, setbacks, and frustrations (both physical and emotional) by accepting that the storm is temporary and focusing on what's within your control NOW.

Physical Abundance: more muscle, less fat, improved performance metrics, elevated energy, & extraordinary health markers.

Mental Wealth: a quality base knowledge on how to eat, train, and structure your life to achieve your goals without mental flogging, while building authentic confidence, mindfulness, and overall balance.

Sustainable Results: you'll learn how to keep making progress, even after you get to the point where you don't need my help anymore. I want to help you feel autonomous and prepared for the future.

Authentic Health: by leveraging your values and trusting yourself, you'll make the fitness progress you want, but you'll also see your mindset, relationships, career and life transform for the better - To be clear, this isn't life coaching. I've just seen how fitness can be a concrete entry point for life-changing personal development.

As it turns out, I'm a real professional
- not just some fit-fluencer

I graduated from the University of South Carolina with a 4-year Exercise Science degree (with honors).

I graduated from the Medical University of South Carolina with a Doctorate in Physical Therapy.

I completed 1600+ hours of supervised clinical physical therapy practice and passed the National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE) to become a licensed physical therapist.

I 've personally supported 250+ people (aged 18-65) with their fitness or rehab to build muscle, perform better, lose fat, and live more fulfilling lives.

I competed at the international level in martial arts and won the USAPL South Carolina Jr. Powerlifting Championships (-63kg) in 2019.

I've been mentored by some of the best performance & rehab specialists in the world and call many of them friends to this day.

I'm not a robot and still live a balanced lifestyle with plenty of fitness, love, and silly goose times.

My coaching is right for you if...

More muscle, less fat, and improved performance are your main goals.

Whether you're trying to look more athletic, or be more athletic we can achieve significant results in 12+ weeks without being a slave to chicken, rice and brocolli. Enjoy your life along the way without sacrificing family time, professional goals, or starving yourself.

You've been training in the gym for at least 1 year.

My online coaching and rehab services are not for absolute beginners, but you also don't have to be an elite professional like the people you see above. I want you to be safe and get the most out of our time together, so having enough experience to train unsupervised without hurting yourself is crucial. Typically I work with people aged 23-50 who train recreationally, but do support some competitors as well!

You want to outsource your fitness to an expert so you can focus your energy on the rest of your life.

Fitness probably isn't the absolute #1 priority in your life as a busy professional. Though it IS important, you don't have the time or energy to solve the puzzles of your fitness. My coaching system works perfectly for (but isn't limited to) those in demanding positions - healthcare providers, entrepreneurs, CEOs, etc.

You are committed to bettering yourself, and know you're capable of more, but haven't dialed in a system for your training and nutrition that fits your lifestyle and goals.

You're sick of the "hacks" and quick fixes that influencers promise will get you the results you want. Maybe you're a coach or PT yourself who understands what drives progress but struggle to do it yourself. You need an approach that's safe, designed by a professional, proven to get results, and sustainable for the long haul.

You want to be better at staying "on track" when life interrupts your routine.

You want to balance life satisfaction with your health goals without feeling rigid or giving up your social life. When you're on the go, you want to make choices that align with your fitness goals. You want to learn how to stay consistent in unpredictable environments.

You're starving for clarity and confidence with your training and nutritional strategy.

You're ready to eliminate the guess work and finally do what you say you're going to do with your fitness goals. You want an exact plan so you can put your nose down and execute.

You're finally ready to make your effort count and invest in your lifelong health.

You've spent enough time putting in effort without the level of reward you want. You're serious about following through on those promises to yourself and finally achieving your fitness goals. You recognize that you're not just doing this for yourself, but for those you love (and potentially those you inspire).

Truth vs Perception. If you're here, you probably know more than most, but just need someone to help you discover a more complete approach.

When you work with me,
you get:

1. 100% Access to Me

You'll check-in with me via email at least once per week for scheduled updates.

You're getting the real ME. Not a virtual assistant, team, or anyone else.

You have access to my support throughout the week via email, DM, or WhatApp. I know how much comfort it brings to know someone's there for you when things get challenging, scary, or anxious.

2. Custom Workouts & Strategy Updates EVERY Week

Your training program will be adjusted weekly to capitalize on the things that are going well, and troubleshoot challenges you might be experiencing. Your training will build on itself through phases lasting 3-6 weeks each, where each phase develops an adaptation (hypertrophy, metabolic, neurologic) specific to your goals.

Your program is individualized to your life. This includes equipment availability, movement preferences, more arm work, or adjustments when traveling.

You'll have notes explaining WHY your program is specifically structured as it is, plus linked tutorials on how I want you to execute each exercise, so you can feel safe and confident that you're getting the most out of each exercise.

I make sure to include questions at the end of each workout to let me know how effectively each session goes.

3. Nutritional Support That Works For YOU

Look at any health magazine in the grocery store check-out line and you'll see some new diet. These diets want you to fit their methods... Instead, I fit my methods with your lifestyle and preferences! Your trust, communication, and feedback will build the system that leads to our success working together.

I will meet you wherever you are on your food journey. Not everyone is meant to track macronutrients and weigh their food, but if you want to learn, I've got your back. Want to focus on daily habits and health-focused choices instead? My habit tracker will work perfectly for you.

I won't force you into a specific diet like keto, intermittent fasting, IIFYM, vegan or any others. If you prefer one of those methods, I'll share my perspective on it, and adjust to the approach you like.

You won't have to sacrifice date nights, happy hour, or eliminate specific foods. During your weekly update, the feedback you provide will be the magic that helps us build out your success for the weeks to come.

4. Education & Lifestyle Design

Once you sign up, within 48 hours you'll receive your Welcome Packet, Training - Nutrition - Data Tracking Sheet, and a video walk-through of everything so you're ready to hit the ground running.

My coaching is only as good as the information that backs it. While I can't give you the entirety of my almost 10 years of education and experience during our time together, you will always have context as to WHY I have you do something (or not do something). Your questions and feedback are always welcome!

We will build systems that work for you based on scientific principles and your preferences. These will become so engrained into your life (even when it's crazy) that eventually you'll tell me, "Mitch, I feel ready to use everything you've taught me on my own now!"

5. Lifelong Friendship

I love working 1-on-1 because it allows us to build a genuine relationship. The foundation? Developing your health, wellness, and fulfillment.

There are countless factors that impact our physical, mental, and spiritual health. Don't be surprised when we're discussing things that may not seem like "fitness" at all. Trust me, it all impacts your health.
