Real Athletes. Real Growth.

“Coach Mike has been absolutely incredible for Niko—his patience with the boys, combined with the way he pushes them to reach their full potential, has helped Niko become faster, stronger, and more confident in his abilities. The dedication and energy he pours into every session—plus the amazing workout videos he creates—show how much he truly cares, and we are so grateful for the impact he's making.”

“We couldn't be happier with the progress our 11-year-old son has made since training with Coach Herring. In a relatively short amount of time, we've seen a noticeable improvement in his endurance, speed, and agility.”

“We couldn’t be more impressed with the growth our sons had this spring/summer with Mike. They both have made tremendous gains in their speed, agility, strength, coordination, and overall confidence. Mike pushed them to work hard while making the sessions challenging, positive, and fun. Seeing the progress from the beginning of spring/summer to now has been incredible. We are so thankful for the time, effort, and dedication he has poured into our kids. We would highly recommend 210 Lab to any athlete / family looking to take their game to the next level!”

“My daughter absolutely loved training with Coach Mike! He made every session fun and engaging, and this was her first experience with weight training. By the second week, she was already asking when she could go back! Now that soccer season has started, we can already see such a difference. She’s noticeably quicker, stronger, and more confident on the field. We had a great experience and would highly recommend Coach Mike to anyone looking to help their young athlete get stronger, faster, and more confident!”

“Coach Mike at The Lab has been a huge part of my son’s tackle football progress. He’s been working out consistently and it’s really shown! Tatumn has built better speed and agility, but also the kind of strength, conditioning, and focus you need to feel confident stepping onto the field. From the start, you could tell the workouts were more than just “exercise.” After all the work he’s put in, he was able to make the A team, and I don’t think he would have been as prepared without The Lab. We’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for real training, great coaching, and measurable improvement. Thanks Coach Mike!”

“Our sons, Mason and Gavin, trained at The LAB with Michael Herring for six weeks, and we couldn’t be happier with their experience and the results!                                                                                                                                              Michael challenged and pushed them every session, and by the time football training started, they were READY. We could physically see the transformation in both of their bodies from the strength, conditioning, and hard work they put in over those six weeks. What we appreciated most was that Michael knew how to push them while still making training something they looked forward to. Mason especially loved the competitions he incorporated with the kids—it kept them motivated, competitive, and having fun while working hard.”

“Coach Mike has been one of the best influences in my kids this summer! He knows exactly how to challenge kids in a way that builds confidence instead of discouragement, even during the toughest workouts. The Lab workouts pushed my kids both physically and mentally, but were done in such a fun way that they continually asked to do more workouts then I had originally signed them up for! Both my daughter and son had the best experience at The Lab and have already asked to continue classes between sports. We’ve noticed improvements in their endurance, speed, and overall confidence. If you’re looking for someone who knows how to motivate kids, build character, and create a positive environment where they can grow, Coach Mike at The Lab is the very best!”

“In the two years Jacob has trained at The Lab, we’ve seen so much more than athletic improvement. Yes, he’s become faster, stronger, and more confident—but the biggest change has been his mindset. He’s mentally tough, embraces hard work, responds well to coaching, and stays composed under pressure. The Lab isn’t just building better athletes; it’s building resilient young people. If you want your child to become physically stronger, there are plenty of places to train. If you want them to become mentally stronger too, send them to The Lab. Watching Jacob’s transformation over the last two years has been one of the best investments we’ve made in his future!”

“Couldn’t be happier with The Lab. It’s everything I was looking for in setting my child up for success in his passion for athletics. Coach Mike does a great job motivating them and keeping them safe.”
