T. Jay Thompson - Head of Operations Showtime TV Fight Series Pro-Elite X/C (Testimonial)

I have been trained by and alongside some of the most elite athletes and trainers in the MMA world since 1995. Steve's idea's are groundbreaking and I have personally found tremendous results following his instruction. Being a very busy older (46) athlete I appreciate the short intense work-outs that do not leave me sore the next couple days. Yet I still achieve the gains i desire in an injury free environment.

Steven Keola Saito (Testimonial)

Thank you for taking the time to read this correspondence. My name is Steven "Soul Samurai" Saito and am writing in regards to my strength coach Steven. For 6 years now, I have been a professional fighter, as well as a professional coach for mixed martial arts, boxing, kickboxing, jiujitsu, and wrestling. I have also been a traditional martial arts instructor for over 10 years holding black belts in taekwondo and kempo karate. I also have about 5 years of experience in the tactical training and security fields. I am writing to you today as a student of world champion jiujitsu, strong man competitor, and arm wrestling champion Steven. Over the years, I have trained with and coached under the tutelage of many great fighters and coaches. However, in all of my years of experience in the ring and as a coach no one has matched the strength and conditioning techniques and methodology as taught by Steven. It is method I continue to practice and the method that I pass down to my students. Unlike many coaches certified through internet testing sites, Steven has proven that his methods work in World Class competition himself. He is highly knowledgable about body mechanics and as a coach will not allow his students to perform poor technique repetitively, which is one of the highest causes of injury in our field. Steven is a firm believer that strength and conditioning must be trained separately and that the training regimen should be sport specific as much as possible. Unlike fad training systems like cross fit, where heavy weight is used with high reps mixed in with cardio, Steven understands that the body cannot make significant strength gains and cardio gains simultaneously, thus focuses on one thing at a time. For example, the beginning of my training camps will start with heavier weighted lifts with low reps to build my strength, technique and explosiveness. The closer I get to the fight, Steve will taper my training down to body weight work outs and wind sprints to build explosive stamina. I highly recommend Steven if you want a coach that will be able to deliver superior results without injury and also teach you how your body works best. Thank you again for your time and attention.

Chris Staab Editor-In-Chief MMA Worldwide & TapouT Magazine (Testimonial)

When I first met Steve English, I weighed over 240lbs. I wish I could say that a lot of that was muscle, but I was 240lbs FAT! Steve began to help me not only shed the unwanted weight; he helped me change my entire thought process and approach to fitness. By approaching my training more intelligently, and with proper form, I was able to get more out of every workout than I ever thought I could. It seemed effortless (ok, maybe not effortless), and in now time I had beaten my personal goal of reaching 185lbs! I wound up at a healthy 177lbs, and I had more energy than when I was 16. More importantly, I never once got injured. Even though I was lifting more weight than I thought I could handle, and pushing myself harder than I thought I could go… all I ever got were results!
