Meet Coach Mike
Founder & Head CoachOver the past 12 years, Michael Atunrase has trained several of the nations top athletes reach their full athletic potential. He has developed a training model that not only helps individuals work out, but educates them on what their minds and bodies endure through their training processes. His approach focuses on attention to detail and is derived from science-based methods.
While completing his Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology at the University of Delaware, he worked in the university's Physical Therapy clinic and the Varsity Strength & Conditioning Chuck Hall Weight Room . After graduating, he pursued a professional football career and was blessed to play 3 years of professional football. During that time he acquired his CSCS (Certified Strength Coach Specialist), NASM (National Academy of Sports Medicine), and NASE (National Academy of Speed & Explosion) certifications. He knew this would enable him to continue pursuing his professional career in human performance training after football ended.
In 2012, he began working with Titus Sports Academy in Newark, Delaware helping athletes of all ages master functional movement, build strength, and gain the confidence to compete in sports.
In 2015, he joined Power Train Sports & Fitness as their Performance Director in Columbia, Maryland. It was there he honed in on training philosophies with clients ranging from youth athletes- to those pursuing general fitness- and professional athletes competing in the NFL, MLB, and NBA.
In 2017, he joined acac Fitness & Wellness Centers where he directs Performance Training programs in Charlottesville, Virginia.
In 2020, he officially launched Resilience Fitness & Sports Performance as a virtual fitness and performance training service for individuals seeking training and training programs. Still in its infancy, Resilience Training has serviced hundreds of clients all across the world, bringing top of the line online fitness and health training, education, and support.
In his spare time, Coach Mike loves to write creative pieces, play the piano, enjoy outdoor activities, football, playing Madden, and spending quality time with his friends and family. He and his wife, Dr. Jacqueline Atunrase have two children, son daughter and a son.
