Our Training Philosophy
At SB Training we believe that exercise is a tool to be used to enhance the quality of life. As we all know, life has its ups and downs. Training should be something that helps you maintain a balance at all times. We will work with you to develop a program that adjusts to your life style.
At SB Training we understand that it is not possible to maintain peak fitness all year round, so we use periodized training cycles to achieve peak fitness at certain times.

Client Testimonials
I joke to friends that my exercise regime is simple: “I give my body to Mike.” As a university professor, I naturally tend to live in my head more than my body. But starting about eight years ago, Mike undertook to get me into shape; and now, at age seventy, I can testify that his expert guidance and involvement have brought me to a level of fitness and well-being that I probably haven’t experienced since my twenties. I consider finding and working with Mike to be one of the most fortunate things that has happened to me in the last decade.
Mark RoseMike and his trainers have been working with our group for exactly twelve weeks. My initial goal was weight loss. However, during this time period I’ve not only lost weight and inches (2 inches in the waist) but seen increases in strength, balance and an improved posture. Additionally, training at SBTraining is something I look forward to as each session is unique mixing in activities for strength, cardio, core stability and stretching. It has also been virtually pain free for my joints which has been an issue in the past.. Mike is an excellent trainer possessing an abundance of knowledge, a knack for motivating people while keeping things fun and competitive!
