Michael Byrne Coaching

Michael was my personal trainer for a short six weeks. Although I didn’t plan for our session plan to be cut short, it actually adds to his ability. Even in six weeks, I saw positive changes in my strength, endurance and energy. Every session, Michael walked me through the plan - machines, weights, technique. He challenged me with higher weight or more repetitions as well as different exercises. No two sessions were alike. You will never be bored with Michael! He is an amazing coach and cheerleader. Even when I struggled or thought I couldn’t do it, he encouraged me through and made sure I felt even stronger the next week. I look forward to working with him again soon!

I directly felt at ease due to his open, friendly and understanding manner. I felt reassured about making the right investment of time and money due to his professionalism, knowledge and accessibility of the methods, tools and frameworks he uses.I thought coaching could be difficult to integrate into my differing shift patterns, but his flexibility and holding appointments via Zoom meant timetabling was never an issue and we worked remotely for the duration.Between sessions, Michael was always more than happy to answer questions and held me accountable in the targets we had set.The fact that he messaged me before significant events and milestones demonstrates his attention to detail and the high level of customer care provided by someone who is not only incredibly capable in what they do, but also extremely passionate and highly motivated.I cannot recommend Michael highly enough to anyone wishing to make significant positive changes in either their private or professional life.

Michael was my Personal Trainer for a 6 weeks period and I can only recommend it to everyone to give it a try. Michael helped me a lot to get back into a sport routine. But not only that: with his open and empathetic nature, it is easy to open up to Michael, so that in addition to the actual do more sport" goal

Working with Michael has been nothing short of amazing! I began with getting Career Coaching, where he was extremely helpful in guiding me to realign with what is important to me and making the decisions I needed to for myself and my career. I then started consistently doing PT with him, and have never been stronger! I was preparing for a multi month circus program, and without Michael I'd have never been ready (physically or mentally!). His keen eye for detail, amazing knowledge of the body and large repertoire of exercises makes for such a good combo to truly get A LOT out of every session. Not only that, but Michael creates a safe & open environment where you can show up fully as who you are, no matter what kind of day you are having. One thing for sure - you'll always leave feeling better than when you showed up (and it's almost always pretty darn good!).I can highly recommend working with him in any capacity - you'll be grateful you did!

Michael has been my personal trainer for almost two years and to be honest, working out with him has been a game changer. He motivates me, he pushes me, he inspires me and he keeps me on track to reach my goals. But most of all, Michael is a wonderful human and it’s so much fun to be around him. Thank you Michael for the good, sweaty times!

I have been Michael's life and executive coaching client since April 2020. At the time that I began working with Michael, I had just been informed that my project in the public sector had no chance of being extended past its originally planned two-year time frame, and I also knew that I wanted to go in another direction professionally anyway. Given that I was doing a great deal of project management in my job at the time, I had a general idea of what I wanted for my future job but it was not yet completely clear. Michael helped me establish a clear goal for what kind of field of work I wanted to move into and then taught me how to brand myself based on my core values and network with beneficial contacts who match those values. His coaching techniques also helped me find the right tools to overcome my trauma from a former subpar employer and gave me the bravery to re-enter the private sector. With Michael as my sparring partner for a concrete roadmap on how to reach my goal, I not only established a brand for myself, but I also found the right further education to complete in order to shift into the worlds of Agile and New work as well as become a certified Professional Scrum Master and become a pro-bono community lead in an Agile meetup organization. I wouldn't have been nearly as productive if it hadn't been for Michael's expertise, guidance, positive encouragement and constant reminders of my professional goal! Especially during my job application and interview processes, Michael helped me in reframing even the not-so-great interviews and consistently showed me what I can learn from each experience. Finally, as someone with years of experience in the startup world, Michael helped me overcome my negative stereotypes of startups and even pointed out to me that they are well-suited to my multipotentialities". Absolutely everything that Michael said turned out to be 100% true! I found my new job in exactly the time frame I wanted with exactly the salary I asked for and with exactly the high level of responsibility and flexibility I was looking for in a job. And it's also in the startup world

I met Michael through his online fitness classes and fell in love with his superpower of motivating you through a camera. His mix of teaching about mindset, believing in yourself and pushing you to go through until the end is so unique in the fitness industry. Michaels classes kept me going in the worst winter ever (6 months lockdown). Last year in the summer I quit my corporate job and decided to start a private coaching with Michael.Michael is such a positive person and full of energy and really cares about his coaching clients. He helped me find my way through a big jungle of opportunities of starting my own business. He was supportive of all my ideas and as he said in the beginning, it will never be plan A, more like plan Z :). Thats so true and I am super happy how things are turning out and I am on the right path for my future. Michael was always there for me if I had questions in between the sessions and super prepared with notes from my emails or the previous session. I've also discussed private issues/problems besides the work world with Michael in which he was such a good help in finding solutions and how I can grow personally. I learned so much throughout the six months of online coaching and would highly recommend Michael if you are looking for a coach! I don't think there is that many coaches out there that are as empathetic and knowledgable as Michael.
