Art of Strength

This place is amazing.
I’ve struggled with fitness and nutrition for a very long time, but this place puts it all together for you. Mike Knight and Oli took me under their wing and helped me get started. I’ve been going for two months and I can already see some positive results.
I’m proud to be a part of the Art Of Strength family!

Thanks to my Aunt De-​De and Uncle Warren, I was talked into getting up pretty early last Saturday morning to meet them for a workout at Art of Strength. I didn’t know what to expect other than an intense workout, and that’s exactly what I received!
The class I attended was split into two smaller groups. One went with Mike and one with Peter. I went with Peter and my workout included cardio (with a stationary bike, rowing machine, ski machine, and jumping jacks), lunges, upper body using a medicine ball and ropes, and a ton of squats. I liked how we kept switching exercises so I didn’t get bored at all. I also liked that Peter took into account injuries of those in our group and gave them alternative exercises that were right for their situation… trainers /​instructors don’t always do that.
The folks in Mike’s group (including my aunt, uncle, cousin, brother, and a few friends) were all out of breath and dripping sweat by the end of their workout. I could tell that Mike’s reputation is to be tough and kind of a smart-​ass, but it works. He’s a huge motivator for those in the gym. I loved the energy at AOS and I would totally workout here if I lived in Michigan full time.
I was a little nervous after the workout that I’d be too sore to stand up at my sister’s wedding that evening, but I felt great and had a fabulous time at the wedding… Thanks again to Peter for the workout and to Aunt De-​De for motivating me to get my ass to AOS that morning!
