had to say about Mike and the training they received.

This certification is the best one I have taken in the five years as a trainer. 

I believe that Elite Combat Fitness is the answer to anyone who wants to train hard for the duration of their life.

Dear All,

First a warm felt congratulations and sense of camaraderie amongst all the June graduates of ECF Course 001. We've been to hell and back; it was a true test of grit and intestinal fortitude. Thanks to Shawn and Mike for giving us their all.

All my best,

Eric Guttmann

ECF CLASS 001

There's nothing better for me to say than speak for myself that the ECF Training was a humbling experience. I thought I was in good shape and ready for anything but Shawn and Mike proved to be the toughest, most fittest and knowledgeable trainers I've ever come across. 

I learned so much at the ECF training course that my six months at an all hands on personal training school didn't teach me.

The training included hundred of exercises, their variations, progressions and combinations which Shawn and Mike demonstrated to us in perfect form. They answered all our questions with complete brutal honesty and gave us years of insight from their own experiences.

I can't say enough about how Shawn and Mike showed us by example their level of fitness and what it means to be in top shape. Even though the training is hard and pushes you to your limits, it's hard to give up when you know your teachers can do the same exercises. No one asks you to do something that can't be done or that they can't do.

Shawn's and Mike's enthusiasm, energy and motivation to teach correct knowledge kept me motivated all day when, in my mind, something was saying, "How in the world did I get here?" 

The training was not to break us down but to make us truly elite. That is a level that Shawn, Mike and my fellow comrades displayed every minute during those 3 grueling days at 9 hours a day of training. That is why I'm now a much more knowledgeable, fitter and humbler trainer.

I wanted to say thank you to Shawn (with the Kettle bell program), Mike and of course Moni for putting together such a challenging program such as ELITE COMBAT FITNESS.

I always thought I’m above average but that was not enough for this course. Training through Martial Arts alone will not give you the ELITE COMBAT FITNESS that we are all searching for. I was humbled during the second day as I saw my weaknesses. A wise man once said that in order for you to be strong you must first find your weakness. That day, my weakness was exposed and all my weaknesses got exposed through out the course.

Once you finish ECF you will not be the same person, ever. You will be one of the ELITE!

Again, thank you Moni, Shawn, and Mike… for giving us another moment to shine... and of course to all my ECF brothers for all the fun and good times.

 Sincerely,

Rodrigo “Wild Man” C.

I just made it back (alive) from the ECF course in Los Angeles. To sum it up in one word; amazing, superb, professional, challenging, unique, fun and exciting. OK, it looks more like seven words. The course was extremely physically challenging. I could go on and on about the soreness, aches and pains but I would not want to bore you with these details. It truly was elite from day one.

I wish to express my gratitude to Shawn Mozen and Mike Diamond for their excellence in teaching and very hard work! They embodied the Elite Combat Fitness philosophy. They constantly kept up the motivation and energy of the group. I felt they were completely tuned in the group's needs for three days. Not a small feat!

I just wanted to thank Shawn and Mike for inspiring, motivating, and guiding us along the way. You guys believed in us, especially after the Day-2. I think everyone in my class would agree that we've all discovered something new within ourselves.

ECF is brutally challenging, physically and mentally as well, at least for me it was. There was a brief moment during the suicide mission where the word "quit" crossed my mind. I started questioning the purpose of this course to me personally. But of course I didn't quit. I kept going and drew strength from the rest of the guys and at the same time Shawn and Mike didn't stop encouraging us to keep going.

The ECF course is an experience of a lifetime. It's a very humbling experience once you go through it. It will re-introduce you to yourself and you'll discover that each of us is capable of doing much, much more.

 To Shawn and Mike, what can I say....you guys are the best. Moni wouldn't expect anything less from either of you. That's the reason you guys are there. Mike, one of these days I will visit and train with you in St Louis,

- “Not use to training in this manner. Extremely challenging! Overall 5/5”

  “Overall this was a very good course with some minor tweaking needed. I would recommend this to others.”

I Want to thank Shawn and Mike for most challenging work outs I had ever experienced. I have been training in boxing and mixed martial arts for the past 20+ years, and I have to say those three days were extremely challenging. Both Shawn and Mike made the the course fun and at the same time physically demanding.

I advise anyone who wants to take their workouts to the next level to take this three day course.

YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT.

 Thanks Again,

-Ofcr. Matt Cuffaro W.P.B. P.D

I had a wonderful time at the class and look forward to getting in shape for the next phase, it will take me a while, but it will be worth it. Shawn and Mike, you guys are great, a good balance between the both of you of pushing us and encouraging us.
