About Mike Raspantini
Michael Raspantini’s story begins as a young boy growing up in New Jersey, the only son in a big Italian family.
“In my family food meant love and if you didn’t eat what you were given it was considered an insult. This often meant many family gatherings with lots of food. Food became a comfort. My weight went up and down as the years passed. I lost big numbers and gained big numbers, my highest weight nearing 300 pounds.
When I first decided to change things and get into the fitness industry, I was young and didn’t go about it in the right way. Now, as I have settled, I realize there are no quick fixes! I have discovered that health, strength, fitness and happiness are a daily journey. I understand that it is not always easy to stick with it, but with the right info you can.
Your health matters to me! It may have taken me many years to get to this place but I believe that my own journey makes me the trainer I am. I GET IT, I CARE and I KNOW how to help!”

Typical Training Session
A good time filled with a nice balance of what the client needs and wants. When I work with a client and want them to get the most out of every session so I expect lots of feedback from them. When you get here we have a thorough warm up, especially when I’m working with someone in pain, dysfunction or post rehab. After that, it depends on the client and their goals. No matter what, its all about trial and error, consistency and success!
Client success story
“When I first started working with Mike in Sept 2016, I had been dealing with chronic tendinitis and joint pain for years from cancer medications. All my surgeries and treatments had left me with a pinched nerve in my shoulder that I’d been doing physical therapy and getting medical (painful!) massages on for over a year. I had reached the point of looking into surgery to just kill the nerve because nothing was working to resolve the pain – I couldn’t sleep, I was cranky, and I was tired of hurting.
Mike watched me move and found the areas I’d been protecting from my treatments and how I’d unconsciously been moving my body incorrectly for years. The first few months were painful and didn’t feel like “working out” but as we targeted specific muscles to strengthen and work on, I realized I had less numbness and pain, better sleep, and I could move again.
Within 3-4 months, my pain was gone 95% of the time. This is HUGE. And I know now when stress is making the pain flare up and how I can work to resolve it.
In the meantime, I have been getting stronger all over. I can workout in ways I haven’t been able to since I was diagnosed almost seven years ago. I can LIFT. My joints and tendons are less inflamed. I can squat and move and marvel at the definition I’m seeing in my body again.
Mike is so much more than just a trainer – he is a therapist, a counselor, a friend, and a magician. I have encouraged my husband to work with Mike for his own back issues, and I can’t wait for my mom to start seeing him to help after a bad knee replacement. I’m so thankful my friend Jenn introduced me before I scheduled surgery!”
