Meet Micah Morgan of MMFitness

Today we’d like to introduce you to Social Media Influencer’s Trainer Micah Morgan.

So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.
I played football for University Of South Florida and graduated with my Master’s Degree in Business Entrepreneurship and Applied Tech. During grad school, I was an intern for USF Strength & Conditioning Program. After graduation, I couldn’t find a full-time job and had to settle for a part-time job at YMCA. I struggled paying bills and was homeless for weeks trying to follow my passion for training. I started training my first client for free, helping her drop over 30 pounds in three months. After posting her before and after picture, a buzz started, gaining a lot of attention to my fitness program.

My clientele went from 3 – 45 people a week. Due to the influx of clients, I would get kicked off public parks and apartment complexes for bringing so many in the area (and charging for services). I knew I had to get my own space and finally open up a gym named MMFitness Gym. I still couldn’t hold but a limited amount of people in the space and still had a high demand for my services all over the world.

So I created my own Online Fitness Training App. Once I launched the app, I had an Instagram Influencer client that lives in West Hollywood signup for my 90 Day Fat Loss Challenge. She lost 8% body fat and 27 lbs. After she posted her Before and After picture, I immediately gain clients in the Hollywood and LA area. I even traveled to LA to train these individuals in person which was my first time going to LA. I set my self apart from other trainers by my no excuses demeanor, tough workouts, and astounding body transformations. From 2011 to 2019 I have had changed more than thousands of lives physically and mentally.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
I barely could pay my rent while pursuing my passion as a personal trainer and business owner. I was homeless for weeks when I had to save money to invest in my business. I started with only $200 in my savings account when I started MMFitness. I’ve been discriminated against and banned from over six apartment complexes and parks for training my clients.

I used to wake up at 4 am every day to train and wouldn’t get done training until after 9 pm, every day! My schedule was like this for two years until I finally saved enough money to open up my own gym. Once my market grew worldwide, I started offering my personal training services online.

Tell us more about your work.
MMFitness Gym is a place where I train private group classes and 1on1s with a “savage” demeanor, not letting people quit on themselves until they earn their results. I have a popular Online Training Program app that is popular in the LA area especially for social media influencers. I also have four viral videos of my couples fitness DVD series called Strength Of Seduction. All videos have millions of views and put my brand on the map internationally (UK has the most sales). The results and commitment I give my clients are what sets my programs apart from other trainers.

Has luck played a meaningful role in your life and business?
I’m a firm believer in hard work and patience. When things did not go in my favor and I took losses, in which I still do, my faith did not and does not waiver. I don’t believe in luck. I believer in destiny and fulfilling it no matter what life gives me. Learning to come back from a loss is the most powerful quality for me. Get knocked back three times and come up six. NO EXCUSES JUST ADJUSTMENTS.
