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. Our goal is to help you maintain a base level of fitness that peaks at certain times to accommodate special events such as upcoming weddings, vacations, or competitions.

To bring to the Santa Barbara community the highest quality training services. To educate and inspire our clients by promoting healthy living through fitness.

Our Mission

To enhance the overall health and quality of life of our clients. To evaluate and assess each client throughout their fitness journey. To design training programs catering to these various body types and unique lifestyles.

Our Promise

We promise to evolve with the changing fitness needs of our clients. To stay open minded embracing new ideas and cutting edge technology. To continually educate and stay informed of the maturation and advancements in the dynamic field of health and fitness.

Client Testimonials

Ok so I am not getting any younger – pushing Medicare age.  I have been in the same 10 pound weight range for over 30 years – I have a FABULOUS designer wardrobe – something for every fashion/fad that recurs regularly.  But after working out with Mike for the better part of 5 years – first at a prior gym, and now at SB Training, not only does EVERYTHING FIT, but it fits better because I am tighter and stronger than ever…THEN, about 4 years ago I took up golf – I have been the most improved player at my Club in two of those 4 years, and now no one cringes when they find they are paired up with me – in fact in a rather high percentage of the time we win, as I generally play in competition better than my handicap…SO WHO SAYS THEY CANT SEE THE RESULTS!!!

Once I considered myself a man. Full of life with an insatiable desire to exceed in everything I did. Mike changed all that. Now, I am merely a shell of the man I used to be fearful of everything I do waking up in the middle of the night in a full sweat crying like a school girl having been broken down by Mike and his sadistic group of trainers. Superman, once a beloved hero is now a menacing position torturing my body in an ungodly position. And Captain Morgan, once a dear friend providing social lubrication in awkward situations has been reduced to method of pain for my desensitized groin. If you’re feeling overly confident in life and have the desire to be humbled, I strongly suggest Mike’s program.
