This week on Open Sky Fitness, Rob begins by discussing the pros and cons of taking up on a food delivery service for your main source of nutrition and how to choose one if you decide to try it out. Then both Rob and Devon sit down with Michael Morelli to discuss his transformation from a difficult moment in his life to becoming fit again and finding success as a health program creator and trainer. One of the most successful ways that Michael has promoted his organization is by using social media to build an online community amongst athletes, trainers, and nutritionists. Despite how helpful it has been, he talks about the need to get away from social media and spend more time on himself and with his family in real life. This week`s OSF podcast also discusses how to do a self audit and become a better "you" and the importance of opening up to the closest people in your life about any difficulties that you are facing each day.
Morellifit`s mission statement is: Let’s Get Fit Together and their vision is to be the most accessible, reliable, and transparent source for health and fitness information on the planet. We place extreme emphasis on customer experience, and our number one priority is life transformation. We will only measure success by the influence and impact we create and sustain throughout the world. Michael has set to make his organization one with a face and a true mission of change. Every day Michael strives to exceed the standard of his organization serving those who reach out to it in a real way.
In just one year, Michael and his Morellifit programs have helped over 300,000 people directly and millions more though his social media channels. He is known for his HIIT Training Program; HIIT MAX, which has over 113,000 students across the world. Besides a bestselling program, he also has a large online training and nutrition membership, top of the line Primal Body supplements, and has hosted live training events. This has lead to his rise as the number one male trainer on Instagram and the number one fitness scope on Periscope, even speaking at the very first Periscope Summit. Through his travels speaking around the U.S. and a book set to launch, Michael’s reach and influence is ever growing.
Along with the above, he looks after a team of 6 handpicked and highly qualified coaches and nutritionists who deliver custom meal and training plans to clients every single day. His team has been personally selected from all over the world to deliver not only one on one coaching, but create custom solutions for his clients.
Pair those training programs with his Primal Body supplement line, and you have the perfect recipe for being a leading the fitness industry, all established in a year’s time.
