Michael McAlister

Written By Connie Holen
““Michael is awesome. The positivity coupled with outstanding technical knowledge and execution of a well thought out program mean his workouts are a joy.””

A previous competitive wrestler, Michael is no stranger to early morning workouts, rivalry, and injuries. After high school, he moved from his home state of Washington to California with one goal: pursue a collegiate wrestling career. Unfortunately, Michael was faced with yet another series of injuries and made the decision to hang up his wrestling shoes.

As one door closed, another opened when Michael moved to San Luis Obispo in 2010. With a passion for injury prevention, creative instead of monotonous workouts, and teamwork over competition, Michael found his passion teaching fitness classes and working 1:1 with clients as a NASM-Certified Personal Trainer.

After years training at local San Luis Obispo businesses, schools, and homes, Michael took the next step and—with Lauren by his side—opened the doors of McAlister Training in 2017.
