Built back.Still building.

Training, bodybuilding and the long road back after open-heart surgery. I film the work, the progress and the setbacks. No gimmicks, no shortcuts. Just the reps.

The rebuild

The rebuild

I am Mike. I train, I compete with myself, and I film it. The MikeRebuilt name is literal: after serious heart problems, open-heart surgery and a double coronary bypass, I had to start over from the ground up.

Getting back under a bar was slow and unglamorous. It was also the best decision I ever made. These days the work is bodybuilding, strength and showing up every day, and the content is exactly that: the sessions, the food, the progress and the days that do not go to plan.

Along the way I became a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Certified Nutrition Coach, started Rebuilt Athletics to coach people online, and built Gainsheet, a free app to track all of it.

The app I built

GainsheetGainsheet

100% free.
No subscriptions. No ads.

Gainsheet™ is the tracker I use every day: workouts, food, weight and progress in one app, with friends to keep you honest. I built it because I wanted one that did not nickel and dime people. It never will.

  • Workouts with exercise demos
  • Food, macros and barcode scanning
  • Weight, body metrics and progress photos
  • Friends, challenges and a weekly Gain Sheet
