Mike is considered a world-renowned leader in the field of sports medicine, rehabilitation, fitness, and sports performance. As a physical therapist and certified strength and conditioning specialist, Mike uses his background in sport biomechanics, movement quality, muscles imbalances, and manual therapy to specialize in all aspects of human performance. He has worked extensively with a variety of professional athletes with emphasis on the care of throwing injuries in baseball players.

Mike specializes in all sports and orthopedic injuries throughout the body, as well as enhancing movement quality and performance in people looking to get the most out of their bodies.

Mike is an active researcher and educator, teaching 100,000’s of fitness and rehabilitation professionals each year through his publications, website, and educational products.


Kiefer is a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist through the NSCA. He earned his Bachelors of Science degree in Exercise Science with a focus in strength and conditioning at the University of Connecticut. While there, he walked on to the 4x National Champion Men’s Basketball team and played for two seasons while at the same time interning with the strength & conditioning program for men’s basketball, men’s and women’s soccer.

After graduating from UConn, Kiefer interned at Cressey Sports Performance in Hudson, MA and went on to start a strength & conditioning program at a Division III college and also coach at a semi-private training facility in Connecticut. He has trained professional, collegiate, and high school athletes of various sports, as well as helped general fitness clients of all backgrounds move better and stronger than ever before.
