“What sets Michael a cut above the rest is his professionalism. It is very clear he is passionate about health and fitness, thus achieving the best outcome for his clients. His approachable nature is a pleasure to deal with even when he’s putting you through the ringer!!”
“Couldn’t recommend Michael enough; he is a fantastic PT. He is thorough, professional and knows his stuff. I trained with him for about a year and a half when he was in Perth and still refer to his programs now.”
“Mike is one of the all time greats. While he has such a wealth of knowledge, it’s his desire to always learn more and then implicate that in his passion for his clients that is amazing. Can’t not be left hurting but with a smile after a session with the great man!”
“Michael is very professional in the way he goes about his training and teachings. If you want a smart way to train and achieve great results then he’s your man. Not only will you get results but all the other good qualities of life like confidence and really finding out what you’re capable of physically and mentally. I would highly recommend him to anyone”
“Michael is extremely talented in his craft. He has helped me improve my training on multiple levels. Highly recommended.”
“Working with Michael Italiano is not like your normal PT session, it’s like having the ultimate training partner. Michael builds a relationship with all his clients on a more personal level, which changes more than just how you appear on the outside. I am forever grateful for the assistance Michael gave me in getting back into the gym and working on my shoulder rehab, and am always blown away at seeing my friends lives turned around whilst under his wing. The gym is a much happier place with his bubbly attitude nearby.”
“I’m delighted to write this recommendation. Michaels persistence kept me focused and committed to a three-day weekly gym schedule. He helped me develop a new confidence in myself. Along with more drive to stay healthy, I made better diet choices to support better progress in the gym. He changed my exercise routines regularly so that I was never bored. I would highly recommend him.”
“Michael is a really awesome trainer with amazing programs tailored to suit personal needs. Would highly recommend to individuals of any fitness level.”
“Michael is an awesome PT! He pairs nutrition knowledge with fitness expertise and explains everything so well. Highly recommend!”
“Ever consummate professional, exceptional attention to detail and contagious energy made those fence sitting / 50:50 sessions a whole lot easier when motivation was lacking. Was introduced to Mike during my second time around at a gym in WA and while it was years ago (traded weights for endurance events and relentless cardio) have remained mates since for the same reasons. Highly recommend.”
“Michael combines an encyclopaedic knowledge of training, form and technique. But most importantly, he is dedicated to educating you on good health to create a healthy lifestyle. Michael truly listens to your needs and tailors great workouts for you to achieve your goals. Every single workout is challenging and Michael is great at keeping you motivated and accountable at the same time. He always wears a great big smile and the banter he brings to the workouts isn’t too bad either.”
“Always puts in 100% at every session! Highly recommend seeing him to reach any fitness goal you have.”
“Michael is one of the most professional and knowledgeable Personal Trainers I have ever come across. His dedication and passion for his career is shown through his clients’ on going results. He practices what he preaches and is constantly broadening his education in the health and fitness industry to become the best version of himself. His approachable demeanour and hard working attitude is nothing but amazing both as a coach and as an individual.”
“Professional and knowledgeable are just two quick words that come to mind when describing Michael and his fitness programs. I had a goal of losing weight, but trying to maintain muscle for my wedding that was fast approaching. He sculpted a specific program to suit what I wanted to achieve and maximise the results I was after. He insists on keeping up with my weekly results to help further my training and progression towards my goals, and that there is a true sign of someone who cares about his clients. Couldn’t recommend him enough.”
“I had the pleasure and privilege of having Michael as a coach for 2 and half years, where his excellence and commitment to his craft saw him push me and get me into peak performance and showing me the correct programs and form athletes should be using. Unfortunately, during my time as a client of Michael’s I sustained a severe head trauma and Micheal was able to adapt and account to my needs with his tailor-made programs, he was a massive helping factor in my recovery and rehabilitation. His love and dedication to what he does shines through him with what he brings to the table not only as a coach but an all round human. Cannot recommend this man highly enough!”
“I’ve always been an active and athletic person, but after the birth of my second child and my challenging job in a racing/automotive supplying company I didn’t have enough time for sports and I suffered from back pain due to weak core. So, I started to look for training that is efficient, that doesn’t take hours and that is focused on stabilizing the core. And voilà – that was the time I found Michael’s programs. After just 2 weeks of training my batteries were reloaded again and I was full of energy! Unbelievable! Of course, I wanted to get back in shape again, but my main target was to feel comfortable and fit again and to recover from my back pain. And I reached this target and now I’m feeling even more motivated to work on my body and fitness. My family also admires my endless energy for them. And my little daughters sometimes join my training which makes it really fun. It’s still the beginning of my fitness journey but I’m excited to make progress day by day. I really want to thank Michael for quickly answering all questions and giving good advice. I really appreciate that and it gives me even more motivation not to give up! Thanks again for this great journey! I can already make some “real” push ups now!“
“I highly recommend Michaels online coaching! He’s a true professional and his online programs work very well for me and they have plenty of variation. Also, Michael is super involved through the MI Community and Instagram which is very motivating. Physical results are showing off, but also my mindset got stronger. I have almost reached my goal of losing 20 kilos. Michael inspired me to regain vitality and health and I’m grateful for that! During quarantine your 30-days challenge caught my eye and that was the start of me being sporty again. At this point I’m following your online programs for over 26 weeks now and I’m still loving them! After I’ve battled Lyme disease with local loss of limbs at that time as a result I never would have thought to feel this fit and strong again. I want to THANK you for motivating/inspiring me to get healthy and fit again!”
“Since joining Michael Italiano’s program, I’ve been motivated to reach my fitness goals. I don’t think I could have achieved the same fitness results without the guidance of Michael’s videos and the features on the website. I have been seeing my body change for the good and have been gaining more strength and endurance. I started in March when COVID-19 started taking over on my work in the medical field and working out helped me clear my mind and I felt more fit the more I did it. To be a part of the MI Community on Facebook is a great added value so we can help each other to stay motivated! I have found Michael’s program helpful and encouraging and I would recommend it to everyone! Your videos helped me perform the exercises well and clean. Your website is easy to use and it felt good to have a clear overview on the progress. Because of your program I also took the step to go to the gym! Also, the Facebook group is a very nice feature and it’s a good and fun idea to be a part of a community to help each other! So, overall, I’m very happy and positive about your program and hopefully you appreciate the ideas I gave you and will give you something to consider for the future of your business!”
“I love being a member of the MI community because you feel you are heard, even if you don’t always communicate with each other, but you are not left alone when you have questions and Michael has an open ear, no matter what medium you use to reach him, be it Instagram or the website itself. My experience is that the videos are very well thought out in the different programmes launched on the website. They explain exactly what you have to do and with the information provided next to the videos you also know immediately when there is a break, how fast you can/should be and how often you should repeat the exercise. The exercises for one day in the Bodyweight programme are 30 – 40 minutes long. Pleasant length for a workout. It is also great that you have 5 weeks and after that to repeat the exercise again if you want. They are reasonable prices, which you can easily afford and you can also do them from home or on the road. The website is open and friendly and you can find your way around very quickly. I like the design. The website also works on all other electronic devices with access to WIFI and you can find your way around even on the smallest technical device. The programme I am currently doing is positive, because it helps me to be fitter for my everyday life but also at work. I notice the change and the strength that the programme gives me. I now pay more attention to regular exercise and also to breaks to give the body time to recover. Michael’s programme has helped me a lot in the lockdown phase to stay motivated, get fit and even recover better from the corona virus. I feel much fitter and the good thing about the programme is that you can start again at the same point at any time. You can feel that it is important to Michael that you have fun and enjoy it and unwind. When I have completed the Bodyweight Beginner Programme, I will definitely do the Intermediate Programme. I can feel muscles where they weren’t before and how my body is shaping itself for the better. Thank you Michael for your support!”
Firstly, I would like to thank Michael for the fact that he gave me the chance to start a fitness program at all, by providing an easily accessible fitness training, at first through his 30 days Isolation Challenge on Instagram and later on with a program via his website. As a result of the covid-19 lockdown I had to work from home and I was in need of an alternative for my daily bike ride to the office. And Michael came at the right time with his isolation challenge. I also like the bodyweight program very much, I find it especially convenient that I can do the program from my own home, even my husband became a fan of the program.”
“My name is Tania, I’m Portuguese and one of the front liners in the battle to coronavirus, I’m an ICU nurse. With the arrival of the pandemic, I was unable to attend gyms, so in June I decided that I would have to do something for me and I have signed in the program. I managed to be active with home training again, which for me was perfect! I have currently completed two of Michael’s training programs “Bodyweight beginner program” and now I’m involved with my new besties “kettlebells” on the “Kettlebell beginner program”. The application is very intuitive and easy to use, the techniques are very well explained by the coach Michael Italiano on his videos. That was a big step to stay active, positive and committed with ourselves, thank you Michael.”
“Starting with the program I loved everything about it, the exercises are challenging and I love it. the User interface and the website are user friendly and easy to use. I’m still working towards my ideal weight. I’ve gained more muscle and I’ve lost weight so I am still within my target. Great program and excited to see where it takes me. I’ve been feeling stronger than ever and happier than ever, I’ve always had trouble with any leg exercises due to weakness, now they are a breeze for me since signing up for the beginner weight loss program. “
“I like the approach of the 5-week program, as you definitely can feel yourself getting stronger. The site is great, and really user friendly. From a community perspective, it’s great you are responsive on social as it adds a level of accountability for the user, which is hard to get when you’re not actually with a trainer or in a gym. It definitely kept me going – especially during some dark days in quarantine! Overall the programs I have used have been great, I feel more toned and stronger than ever! Can’t thank you enough.”
“I worked out in a gym and with a PT in the past. The personal training had to stop because of COVID-19 and the training in the gym somehow did not feel right anymore. The results were not what I wanted them to be. As I started doing the Weight Loss Beginner Program I thought, that I will never be able to do it. I have done eleven workouts by now and it is getting better, but still a lot of work ahead however, I already feel small changes. I am very motivated, I like the workouts, I like how they challenge me and I will certainly continue on with the workouts. I like that I can do the workout from home. As my days are hectic, I like to be flexible when to do my workout. When I started the program, I was not sure if I will get everything right, as I am not a native speaker. But it works out fine.”
