Mike Brisson's knowledge of body mechanics exceeds that of any other trainer that I have ever met. I came to Mike with back issues that were not physiological in nature but had come from more than 20 years of personal training(with numerous trainers) with no one ever checking my body, meaning that as long as I could move the weights around it didn't matter how my body modified to get the job done. My back had been doing all of the work and none of my other muscles were turning on. At this point in my life even though I would be considered fit from the level of exercise that I was doing, my level of functioning was decreasing rapidly because my back had given up. This deficit was affecting my everyday functioning from getting up off the floor, going up and down stairs to worrying what I will do to my back if I picked something up. Mike came in with a plan to rehab and then eventually build my strength using the right muscles so that I don't get into these problems again. He continuously educates through my workouts and makes corrections right down to the movement of my toes during an exercise. His nutritional knowledge is based on science and not fad information. The very best part of being a client of Mike's is that he only wants the best for me, to see me succeed in my training so that my everyday quality of life through uninhibited movement is exactly how I want it to be.

Zero to hero, nuff said. With Mike/Ragnarok boxing I feel like I went from always wanting to know what I was doing, to knowing what I was doing. There is no better way to learn, than from someone who actually knows what they're doing. Regardless of starting point, I feel like Mike can take you from there -> where you want to be. That was the case for me and I knew nothing, now i throw hands better than anyone I know.

Amazing Coach! Really puts in time and effort into his Athletes. Make sure they are taken care of the best way possible. Mike has years of experience under his belt and truly knows what he’s doing. Definitely check out Ragnarok if you want to truly discover your potential!

I have had lower back pain for many years and thought it would just be part of my life . Since I’ve been training with mike I have a functional back and feel all around stronger and healthier. He has taught me that even though aging is inevitable losing strength and mobility is a choice. Thanks to mike I’m a 60+ woman doing deadlifts!!

I have trained with many individuals over the years. Mike is by far the best trainer I have used. He is knowledgeable about exercise and recognizes individual needs. He is able to alter his intended program at the spur of the moment for new injuries. Mike is able to safely train me past my comfort zone without my knowledge. The boot he's a great guy. I highly recommend him

It took me a number of sessions to figure Mike out. But eventually I came to understand why he trains you the way he does. Eventually, he pulls it altogether and only then to you appreciate the high level that he operates at. Over the last 20 years I have trained with six or eight different trainers. Mike Brisson has brought training to a whole new level.

Mike’s knowledge of how your body works and just as importantly doesn’t work is amazing. He gives you a lot of information as to why and how you should be doing the various exercises and equally important what not to do so you don’t continue to train in ways that hinder healing and performance improvement. He is very patient and working towards a long term solution not just a quick fix. Highly recommended

Mike is a fantastic trainer. After I suffered a major injury a couple years ago and not having nearly the mobility I used to have, I started training with Mike, in just 4 months of training with him he has taken my body to new heights that I didn’t think were possible again. I also box with Mike and as a boxing coach he is top tier, he has shown me so much and given me a great respect for the sport and is pushing me towards greatness. He has planned and worked out a nutrition plan for me that has made me feel great and is showing results. I highly recommend all of his services! 10/10! Ragnarok boxing is the only way to go!!!

Mike has been my trainer for a number of years now, and I love working with him to improve my function, strength, and mobility. Every time I have an injury or issue, I trust him to get me through, and to get me physically better and stronger than before. I have worked out and been physically active for many years, but I am now in the best shape I have ever been in. Mike works hard to make sure my technique and form are done well, coaching me with cues to ensure I understand what to do, so that I can be confident I will not injure myself at work or working out in the gym. In addition to the physical training, Mike has been instrumental in improving my nutrition, providing help when I’ve been in trouble with a sudden change in my metabolism. Mike’s coaching has improved my awareness of what my body needs are on a daily basis, and also how to adjust my diet during times of increased exercise.
