Owner

The success of your health, fitness and sport is my purpose.

Since 1995, I have worked as a personal trainer. Combining my experience and education as well as developing a team of resourceful experts in fitness, I founded Fitness1on1.com to provide a service to the community.

Moving from Jersey to attend school here for physical therapy, I have since worked in health & fitness for several corporations including NASA (Intern), Hermann Memorial Hospital (Intern) and Sam Houston State University (Student Assistant Strength Coach). Throughout the course of these positions, I always maintained my status as an independent trainer.

In addition to growing and developing my young companies, I am working to continue my education and research in health, fitness and sport. Currently, my focus is involvement with the NSCA, local police, fire, & EMS personnel, community outreach efforts, networking and getting the Fitness1on1.com brand known throughout Houston and the surrounding areas.

At Fitness1on1.com, with 100% of your commitment, I promise to maximize your results in the shortest amount of time. You can depend on us to provide the highest quality of personal training and exercise prescription at the lowest cost.

I look forward to meeting you and serving you at Fitness1on1.com.

Mike Zarro, CPT

Training is about helping people reach goals. Rarely do I meet people who just want to exercise because they have nothing better to do. Most of us exercise to live – we don’t live to exercise. We have a goal that’s outside of the gym because that’s where we spend our time. Maybe we want to look better for the summer or be a better athlete or perhaps the doctor has told us we need to start exercising to reverse a health issue. No matter what the reason, I want to help people get there.

My style of training is simple: work hard, live practically and learn as we go. Most of us live in an 8-5 world with difficult jobs, fast moving kids and limited time. We want to get the most out of our workout and our trainer. I want to give that to them.

I worked at Texas Sports Medical Center for two years, graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a Bachelors degree in Speech Communication and a minor in Kinesiology. I am certified through the National Academy of Sports Medicine with hopes to continue my education in the next year by getting certified through the National Strength and Conditioning Association.

I live in Spring with my wonderful wife and our two great kids. My hobbies include working out, riding my mountain bike and playing soccer on a co-ed team with my wife. My goals for this year are to get my certification through NSCA, compete in three races and win the lottery (kidding).
