Before working with Mike, I was dealing with persistent, non-radiating trap and low back pain. Sitting for any length of time felt like something was clamping down on my neck and lower back — which was especially stressful because I need to sit for work. I was genuinely worried about my ability to support myself long-term. Prior to this, I had already spent six months seeing a McGill specialist and another physical therapist, but nothing fully resolved the issue. Working with Mike was a turning point. By engraining neutral movement patterns and learning how to incorporate them throughout my day, my pain is now either completely gone or something I can quickly control and fix. Today I feel nearly 100%, and I’m fully back to doing fitness activities again. What surprised me most was how important it was to regain awareness of where true spinal neutral is. It’s easy to lose and surprisingly hard to relearn. At first, maintaining that awareness felt impossible — but after a few weeks it became much easier, and that’s when my progress improved exponentially. I would absolutely recommend Mike. Everyone’s back pain is different, but if you haven’t been able to find neutral and pain-free movement patterns, that’s probably why nothing else has worked. This should be square one for anyone who spends significant time sitting or struggles with standing and moving comfortably.

Before working with Mike, I couldn’t even pick up a sock off the floor without extreme low back pain. Standing for extended periods was unbearable, and I was completely knocked out of sports and fitness for months. Eventually, the pain started to take a toll on my emotional health too. I truly tried everything — multiple physios, yoga, Pilates, massage, and every stretching and strengthening routine I could find. Nothing gave me long-term relief. Eventually, I had to swallow my pride and try something that looked almost too simple to work. Thank God I did, because now I understand why it works. The brain plays a far greater role in low back pain than I ever realized. Today, I’m completely pain-free in daily life and 100% back to playing hockey. My low back feels the best it has in years. I can do all my fitness activities again — I just stay smart and mindful not to overload my back unnecessarily. What surprised me most was that holding simple ground positions and doing low-effort movements with specific breathing could make such a massive difference. I’d always believed more effort was better, but I had to learn to relax and trust the process. If you’re struggling with pain, I can’t recommend Mike enough. His approach might seem different and less mainstream, but that’s exactly why it works. If you go to Mike first, you’ll save yourself a huge amount of time, energy, and frustration. Even if you’ve already tried physio or chiro, Mike’s ability to address the root cause — not just the symptoms — sets him apart. Don’t give up hope. Commit to just one month with Mike and fully buy in. It will pay dividends for the hundreds of months ahead — physically, mentally, and financially.

Mike has been an absolute lifesaver for my back and sciatica pain. After spending months in physical therapy focused on general exercises, I was still stuck in a frustrating cycle — every time I tried to return to lifting or my normal activities, the pain would flare up again. Mike’s highly personalized approach finally made the difference. Even as a remote program, his support is outstanding. He provides daily exercises that he adjusts in real time based on my feedback. Anytime I’ve had a concern and reached out, he’s responded quickly and modified my plan to keep me moving forward safely. What truly sets Mike apart is that he doesn’t just give you exercises — he teaches you how to move properly, what to avoid, and how to build real, lasting strength. For the first time in a long time, I feel like I have my life back and I’m returning to the active lifestyle I love. I highly recommend Mike and his program to anyone struggling with chronic pain, especially if traditional methods haven’t worked.

I started training with Mike in February 2024. I was looking for an experienced trainer to help with strength training, toning, and weight loss—but I didn’t expect that pain relief would be part of the journey. At the time, I was dealing with left foot plantar fasciitis, right hip pain, and lower back pain. I had received an injection in my foot, completed physical therapy, and had been seeing a chiropractor for over 10 years. Today, I no longer have any foot pain. If I begin to feel discomfort in my lower back or hip, I use the simple reset techniques Mike taught me, and they provide relief. I’m extremely pleased with how my body feels now—both physically and mentally. Knowing I can live and exercise without pain, and without needing surgery, has been life-changing. I highly recommend Mike to anyone looking for an experienced and knowledgeable trainer who truly cares about helping you get healthy, strong, and pain-free. Mike will not disappoint!

Mike has been a lifesaver for my back and sciatica pain. I wasted months in PT focusing on general exercises, but the pain was always there. I found myself stuck in a cycle of frustration—while I was putting in the work, every time I tried to return to lifting or my usual activity, my back and sciatica pain would flare up immediately. Mike took a different, highly personalized approach that finally worked. Even as a remote program, the support is incredible. He provides daily exercises that he adjusts in real-time. If I ever have a pain concern and message him, he responds quickly and modifies my plan immediately to keep me moving forward. He doesn’t just give me exercises; he has taught me how to move, what to avoid, and how to build true, lasting strength. I finally have my life back and am returning to my active lifestyle. I cannot recommend Mike and his program highly enough to anyone who is struggling with chronic pain and traditional methods aren’t working.

I have been working with Mike since my freshman year, and his training has made a huge impact on my athletic career. I compete as a runner for my high school and will be playing field hockey in college next year. Mike helped me work through knee pain while also making me faster—both on the field and on the track—which has allowed me to earn several high-level accolades along the way. His program is well-rounded and effective, with a strong focus on mobility, strength, and speed

I've been with Mike for the last 4 years. I am always traveling as I am a competitive golfer and on the road for tournaments. His videos and explanations are really detailed on how he wants me to perform resets, exercises and cardio. My flexibility, strength and power are the best of my career. I feel great and he keeps me progressing and on task when he sends me his daily workouts. I meet with him online and the instruction is right on point as he shows me new movement patterns and exercises.

“I am running much faster and performing at a high level. I run so much more efficiently and actually understand why and the reasoning behind my training. Times that running has limited my mobility and caused stiffness and pain in my body. Mike resets those faulty patterns and those aches fall off and I feel fluid and fast again. Been around a lot of running coaches over the last four years and Mike's rotational presentation, mobility and drills just make sense to me and helped me get very fas

Runners

Running is your medicine—so we have to protect it. Longevity means keeping your body strong, mobile, and balanced so it doesn’t over-rely on one side and build stiffness or compensation over time. We’ll teach you efficient running mechanics and better rotation so you can move smoothly, stay healthy, and keep running faster for longer.

Golfers

Golfers

Teeing off and spending time with friends on beautiful courses might be the best hobby there is. The competitive drive and challenge of mastering every shot is exciting—even when it gets frustrating, you wouldn’t trade it for anything. But golf is the same movement repeated over and over, and over time that can shrink your mobility. That’s why a “perfect swing” starts to change, positions get harder to hit, and you may feel stiff or achy in the hips and low back during a round. Build the mobility to get into every position and fully rotate through your body—so you can swing freely and feel good doing it.

Weightlifting and fitness creates an environment where you can release all that stress and feel confident about how you look and feel. It can also start tempting your ego to do things you probably shouldn't be even doing in your 20's. It can also be taken away from time to time due to stiffness, tweaks and pain. It also can start inhibiting your movement if not reset through time. Taking a smarter not harder approach will leave you realizing that you can keep all the gains with less interruptions in training and an easier time get out of bed to goto work the next day.

ABOUT
My name is Michael Blaylock, and I’ve been a trainer, teacher, and gym owner for over 25 years. I’ve always lived an active lifestyle, but early injuries led me down a different path—one that ultimately reshaped how I coach and train today.After undergoing right-side shoulder and hip replacements, I dove deep into studying the science of asymmetry, mobility, and smarter program design. That journey led me to develop a training system focused on keeping the body balanced, resilient, and continually progressing—so clients can stay consistent and excel in the fitness activities they love for the long run.I hold certifications through NASM, NSCA (CSCS), Bioforce Conditioning, and multiple speed and performance programs, with extensive experience in mobility and asymmetry training. I am also currently pursuing my PhD in Exercise Science.For more than two decades, I’ve dedicated my career to helping people stay strong, move better, and remain active for life.
