About Me

Hello and welcome! My name is Michael Brown-Fiedtkou and this is Apex Fitness SB L.L.C.!


I am a Santa Barbara local and UCLA Graduate with a huge passion for athletics and fitness. That passion has grown and developed as I have been training myself for over 5+ years and have been a personal trainer for 2+ years. I believe that people of all ages and all backgrounds should experience the many benefits that fitness has to offer and the amazing overall impact it will have on life as a whole. As an ISSA Certified Personal Trainer, I specialize in different types of personal training sessions and creating programs that will not only help you achieve your fitness goals, but also educate you on the different aspects of fitness.


I will also teach you what it means to truly train in a mindful and healthy way! Whether you're just starting out or have even been training for awhile, I will be able to take the guesswork out of your training and guide you to your goals. If you are ready to make a life changing step you have come to the right place! Feel free to check out the programs I offer or even request for me to make a custom plan that will fit with your lifestyle!

Michael is such an awesome personal trainer! He does his best to make you feel comfortable and really listens to the goals you want to accomplish along your fitness journey and tailors a plan that works for you. He's compassionate, understanding, caring, and pushes you to become the best version that you can become. I highly recommend you schedule a session with him and hopefully work with him to achieve your fitness goals.

I’ve only been working with Michael for a month but already I’m seeing great results! I’m a post-menopausal woman who hadn’t been to the gym in 30 years… he’s been patient and encouraging, knowledgeable and supportive, teaching me proper technique. I’m learning a ton, and actually losing weight and gaining strength remarkably fast. I think health insurance should cover this kind of training… they’d save $ over hospital bills. Thanks, Michael! My blood pressure is already lowering  :)

I cannot say enough great things about Michael! I had a major surgery only to be followed 4 weeks later by a car accident, so I was in dire straights when we met. We started working on regaining mobility and range of motion, with the end goal of being able to resume strength training without re-injury. It was a slow and steady pace, and Michael was on point every session with knowing exactly I needed well before I did, adapting and evolving a personalized plan and end goal, and encouraging me to stay the course. I am happy to report this man saved my life! I'm back to seeing gains because I'm still employing the stretches, exercises, and techniques Michael taught me along the way. Training with Michael is an investment in your body's future, especially if you hope to keep your body moving well into old age. Plus, he's a really stellar human being all around and a joy to work with- even when he's pushing you!
