He takes the time to understand his clients' starting points and their goals, then collaborates with them to create tailored, actionable steps that fit their individual needs. Mike understands that there’s a lot of conflicting advice when it comes to nutrition, and he’s always eager to help clear up any confusion and debunk myths for his clients.
