About
Helping to build a stronger world one personal at a time
At the gym, I’m known as the “Giryavik” or Kettlebell guy.
I firmly believe that kettlebell training delivers the fastest results of any gym-based exercises. Whether you are looking to build mounds of muscle, huge amounts of strength or shed pounds of body fat, with proper instruction kettlebell workouts deliver. Period.
In conjunction with kettlebells, my clients learn how to also master their own bodyweight through exercises such as press ups, squats, pull ups and even handstands.
The combination of kettlebell training and bodyweight training produces time and again the strongest, leanest and most conditioned gym members around.
Everyone is welcome
You do not need to be an advanced gym goer to feel the benefits of training. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or haven't done a day’s exercise in 40 years, my methods are always tailored first and foremost to your goals and fitness level. Want to build a muscular body, no problem.
Just looking to lose body fat without bulking up, that’s fine too!
Personal Training is personal. You’re the boss, not me. Power to you!

Testimonials
"Nothing bad to say. I would definitely recommend training with Mike if (like me) you want to learn how to exercise. It's been a real eye-opener the past 5 months with Mike and after years working out, I was able to break through an endless plateau almost immediately in my training.
He's also extremely knowledgable in nutrition that has been very helpful in my recent progress of weight loss.
Can't recommend him highly enough!" Samantha Drayton
