I started working with Mikey about two years ago, and it was the best decision I have made.

Before he started coaching me, I had a poor block start, a slow turnover and a less than positive mindset towards competition, which is not beneficial for a sprinter with big aspirations.

After a few sessions with Mikey, I gained more confidence in myself through his wise words and positive energy he surrounded me with.

Due to Mikey's experience with being an athlete, he can empathise the struggles and bumps you may encounter and lead you to successful solutions.

Mikey knew how to improve my overall sprinting by teaching me how to become more powerful through weight training and plyometrics.

In addition, he pointed out my knee lift was not at its optimal and assisted me by giving me numerous creative drills for me to be able to achieve a better knee lift.

Since working with Mikey, I have gone onto compete at many national and international competitions, where I have placed top three each time.I have no complaints; I truly believe he has helped me achieve too much in my athletics careers and it is just the beginning.

Mike Is professional, not only is he an excellent coach, he is also a great mentor.

I truly believe my son has become a better football player since having sessions with Mike, due to the fact that he has helped him achieve a better running style.

I came across Mike on Instagram and followed his daily vlogs mentoring/training other athletes as well as his own daily schedule and competitions in athletics with his brother.

My daughter has played football for over 10 years for BRFC, MCFC currently with England WU18 and Everton Development squad and was due to represent England in NeymarJR5 futsal finals in Brazil and I felt I needed help to get her ready.

I’ve never met anyone so dedicated in selflessly encouraging others, he has been nothing but a huge inspiration mentally and has made Kaya stronger physically and performance wise.

After working with Mikey for two years now, Ayo finally got a professional contract aboard and Ola didn’t agree terms over his new contract at Manchester United so he decided to sign for Derby Country (with the view to sign his professional contract on his 17th birthday)

In the future, I see my sons doing very well in the professional game alongside Mikey to continue their growth as athletes.

I would personally recommend Mikey to any parents who wants to help their child improve physically and mentally in any sport.

Our names are Abimbola & Abiola we both play football.

Abimbola plays for Morecabe whilst Abiola plays for Wigan, we both chose to work with Michael because he works with good people and they gave a very good recommendation.

Michael has helped both of us to improve our running techniques which makes us have a better performance in match situations.

Abimbola is a left winger and it is vital to be fast in football so you can get past your marker.

Abiola is a central defender in football and it’s vital to have speed to stop attacker from getting past you and creating chances.

There’s been times where the session has tough but with great coaching, we have started to see results.An example is both our scores in the speed test has by quite a bit, this shows our training is helping us get quicker.

Not only has Will benefitted from the physical attributes developed with Mikey, from the outset Mikey installed discipline, respect and sportsmanship into Will, attributes that Will has taken with him into all sports and everyday life.

Mikey’s energy, enthusiasm and pure enjoyment in what he does transfers into his sessions and into his athletes leading to every session being fun and enjoyable while at the same time beneficial.

Michael implemented a training programme specifically designed to improve Sally's sprint speed through a mixture of strength and conditioning and olympic weightlifting techniques- which quickly helped to improve Sally's confidence after struggling with low self confidence.

I found that Sally's self esteem grew with his friendly and down to earth nature of coaching and his true passion for a range of sporting disciplines.

Working with Michael has been a positive experience.

The coaching was adapted to the specific needs required for the sport of football, yet complementary as it incorporated the core foundations of athletics and short distance running. It is always a pleasure to work with Michael who brings his expertise and adapts it to the athlete’s needs and position. Strongly recommend 👌🏽

Mikey lead coach at Fennactive is a well mannered approachable and Knowledgeable athletic development coach whom I would definitely recommend to athletes wanting to excel in there chosen sport.

Whilst working with mikey I found him to push the boys really hard in 1 to 1 training in a positive and pro active environment. His specific training techniques really helped the boys athletic development in both strengthening and conditioning the athlete to the maximum and the end gain being achieved.

Along with a Fun and friendly environment for the boys, I have seen them gain massive confidence as an added bonus to them attending Mikeys sessions and an eagerness to return next time.
