*Personal Testimony working with Mike Thurston* I have recently ended the online coaching program with Mike, and I can unequivocally testify that he is by far the perfect person to have as a coach and trainer. I had been watching his KZread videos since he had 40k subscribers, and during that time I had been doing a generic program (chest/tri, back/bi, shoulders, legs, and arms). I saw results in the beginning but reached a plateau and did not know what to do. This is because now I know generic programs are not designed to help you whenever you do reach a plateau. Before purchasing the online coaching program, like most of you, I had my reasons not to, including the fact I had never met him before. Looking back now, all I can say is I am glad I bought the program. Mike’s greatest strengths are: knowledge, flexibility, and honesty. As far as his knowledge goes, I believe his KZread videos and high-quality content are good indicators of how knowledgeable he is in this industry. As for flexibility, Mike is able to work around your schedule in terms of the 1-on-1 weekly video skype calls and eating habits. If you are a picky eater, such as myself, this is not a challenge for him, as he will work around it. The best thing is, he does *NOT* require you to eat chicken and broccoli every day like other trainers may have you do. Lastly, his honesty. Mike will not sugarcoat anything for you nor will he say something without having backed up research or personal experience. As someone who has constantly tried P90X, Insanity, and other generic programs out there, having someone such as Mike, is definitely worth it. My physique has changed dramatically, and I am extremely pleased with the way I look. One thing Mike ensures once you decide to end the program, is that you are confident enough to have some direction and knowledge on how to live a better lifestyle. As for my future plans, I will continue to work with Mike and have him as a coach and personal trainer. *Mike, if you are reading this, thank you so much!*

How low you are. It doesn't matter what a person do to his life. If he helps and supports people by motivating them or provide his assistance for personal training or nutrition etc he has the respect. And so far Mike is by far the best to that. We don't care what people do to their personal lives or how they get there. Stop these self-conscious things.

was kind of relating to connor murphy whose videos i once enjoyed but now the channel is just of stripping in public not much informative content on his channel, those kind of videos are okay once in a while but every now and then his uploads consists of the same thing, which clearly indicates he is just addicted to making viral videos for fame

the only fitness youtube channel I need to follow, thanks Mike

Mike I would have never known you struggled with being in front of the camera. You're a Natural! You're a nice guy you know your stuff and people will gravitate toward you. Great story!

Mate he was obviously not a natural if he became a shaky stuttering version of himself when the camera was pointed on him. Did you listen what he said? He pointed that camera on himself every single day till a point where he looked like a natural. That's called persistence. BIG difference

Mike..I am a newbie to your KZread channel..but I have to say it is by far the BEST fitness channel I have seen. This video is awesome. And your English is fantastic..you do not speak like a chav like other trainers. No slang, no ghetto-speech...just nice, straight, queens english. Your knowledge and your honesty is brilliant. No junk, no trash, NO WAFFLE, and no clickbait...just straight to the point, and nice short videos. I’m glad I subscribed. Top man!

The realest guy on KZread

I've been nothing but impressed since finding your channel. I've even implemented many of your suggestions into my workout. I applaud you for making the hard decisions even when they are uncertain as they always seem to be the right one. I wish you nothing but luck and I'll continue to follow your journey!

I like that you just call a spade a spade, so to speak... 👍🏻... I usually watch your videos before I go train, for motivation... looking forward to more videos.

Absolutely love this, Mike. Your genuine nature and openness is one of the reasons you connect so well with people. Please don't change. Ever.

I love stories like this. You walked through your fears. That, my friend, is called courage. Proud of you boy.

I've only been watching your channel for a couple of weeks and it's making a massive difference to how I've been eating and working out (especially form-wise). Love how informative your content is and the way you present it. You're a legend mate and you deserve all this success and happiness for the risks you've taken and the work you've put into this.

I stumbled across this channel a few months ago. I just found Mike to be very genuine, knowledgeable and well-spoken. I train alone, and have enjoyed all the videos and useful tips. Thanks for sharing your youtube story in the video. Congratulations on your success; it is well-earned. Keep up the great information, and good luck in building the fan base. Cheers.

Mike, you're awesome. A great inspiration for me and a chill out guy. Keep going strong!

Bravo Mike! You are truly an inspiration for all of us. Way to go my friend, glad life if working out for you. Great message today, don’t sit around and wait for opportunity to knock on your door. If things are stagnant in your life, get up and find your calling, life is so precious and so short. Looking forward to the next video!

I have always found your videos to be informative without being overly talkative or narcissistic; you talk about what we need in a clear way. You deserve your following and success. Stay happy!

Awesome video man really needed to hear that with all the struggles that go on in life and I feel encouraged to take action and do something different, thanks man!!

Thanks Mike for all of your help! I think you're courageous for taking a risk and following your heart and passions. I think you know what anchors you and that anchor will keep you grounded when the waves of life and adversity come crashing into the ship God has you in. Stay anchored my friend and good luck!

Thanks again Mike to be yourself and to be open about it. I'm sure that you are a source of inspiration for a lot of people. And I think that I admire you a little bit! 😉

I learn how to train my back because of you. You get way better than I first spot you. There is still a great journey ahead, KEEP IT UP.
