Owner & Personal Trainer
MEET MICHAEL.
Good personal training starts with understanding the person in front of you.
I'm Michael, owner of Reforged Health and Fitness. I work with adults with a wide range of goals -- from building strength and improving health to changing body composition and transitioning from physical therapy into long-term fitness.
I believe health and fitness are for everyone, so come as you are. All are welcome here, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, age, sex, identity or sexual orientation.
My Approach
I believe that training should be shaped by the client—not the other way around. Your individual goals, experience, health history, and preferences are the starting point for every program I design.
Health and exercise science help guide my decisions, but training still has to work for the individual in front of me. Instead of forcing everyone into the same routine, I focus on what is effective, realistic, and sustainable for you.
My goal is to help you become stronger, fitter, healthier, and more confident while building an approach that you can maintain long-term. This is your life, your effort, and your chance to make a positive impact on the rest of your life. You deserve a coach that works as hard as you do.
What You Can Expect
INDIVIDUALIZED
Training is built around you—not a generic template.
EVIDENCE-INFORMED
Exercise science helps guide your program while your individual response and preferences still lead the way.
BUILT FOR REAL LIFE
Fitness should support your life, not require your life to revolve around fitness.

Who I Work With
I work with adults along a wide range of starting points and goals. Reforged is a general personal training practice with training after physical therapy as one area of specialization.
- General strength, fitness, and health
- Fat loss, muscle gain, or body-composition goals
- Beginners or people returning to exercise
- Long-term strength, mobility, cardiovascular fitness, and physical capability
- Transitioning from physical therapy into long-term fitness
WHY "REFORGED"?
Fitness is not about becoming a completely different person, but about building on where you are now. The name Reforged represents the process of becoming stronger, healthier, and more capable over time by refining your current foundation into something more resilient and prepared for the life you want to lead.
