Mike was the most influential person I have had in my athletic life next to my father. I had never lifted before meeting Barwis. When I was in high school I was 215-220, but I was all legs. I played soccer. I kicked the soccer ball against the side of my house for like hours at a time. Once he started putting me through some lifting, and putting me through some programs to make me a much more well-rounded athlete.None of it would have been possible without Mike Barwis.

Mike Barwis’ unique concepts and approach to strength training for basketball has been paramount to our success.
John Beilein
Former Cleveland Cavaliers, Michigan, and West Virginia Head Basketball Coach
(In 2011), I tore my ACL in the ninth game of the season. I had two surgeries since and wasn’t able to jog in a year and a half. Now, after four weeks (with BARWIS), I’m able to run faster than I have before; power clean more than I ever did -- in four weeks! With Mike, it was like a miracle.

As a professional athlete, you sleep better when you know you took it to the max and Mike Barwis’ program offers that. His program took my hitting to a whole new level.
Larry Foote
Team Captain, 2-time Super Bowl Champion with the Pittsburgh Steelers, All-American at University of Michigan
Last summer I had my first look at the Barwis facility! I was so impressed that I left there feeling I had to get my staff down to see it. As I watched one of my former players Draymond Green rehab his hip I was pleasantly surprised on what I saw. I watched NFL players, NBA players, boxers, MLB players and NHL players! But watching all those incredible athletes work so individually with Mike was special! I am a big fan of this program and would recommend anyone close to me to get healthy.

With Mike, it’s a great combination of the science behind why you’re doing something and then translating that into things that you need to accomplish on the baseball field. It’s not just about getting yourself the strongest and the fastest. Everything we do here is engineered, and it will translate to the baseball field. I’ve always worked out in the off-season, but I wish I would have had something like this earlier in my career.
