Mike Gillette
Mike Gillette has a life story that reads like an action-adventure novel. A life which has proven to be his own best case-study for goal attainment.
Growing up a poor, scared and scrawny kid in an environment of extreme violence and substance abuse, Mike was never one to let the conditions of his life hold him back from achieving great things.
In fact, Mike took his real-world experience and challenges and turned them into a unique set of mental, physical, and tactical skills to carve out his own destiny as an Army paratrooper, SWAT Commander, high-end bodyguard, combatives instructor, combat fitness expert... AND even a record-breaking "Motivational Strongman" whose feats have been documented by Guinness World Records and Ripley’s Believe it or Not.
Now, even at nearly 60 years old, Mike is highly sought after as a peak-performance pioneer and continues to push beyond his own personal limits while teaching others how to do the same.
