BUILDING THE FITTEST LEADERS.

ALIGNMENT FIRST. PROGRESS ALWAYS!

 

Mycal Anders doesn’t just talk high performance. He lives it.

Father. Husband. Marine Corps veteran. 

A strategist with nearly 25 years of leadership experience: and the scars to prove it.

Since 2011, he’s coached thousands of high-performing leaders to stop trading success for stress and start aligning their lives with who they’re meant to be.

This isn’t about motivation. This is about execution.

With graduate degrees from Arizona State and Thunderbird School of Global Management, and credentials like Birkman and NSCA-CSCS, Mycal brings a system that fuses precision, performance, and purpose. No nonsense. No theory. Just results.


THE NEXT LEVEL MISSION

Empower leaders to align habits with goals by prioritizing health and eliminating stress.

Next Level Performance Consulting was founded in 2011 to serve high achievers who’ve sacrificed themselves in pursuit of success. Mycal built it to rewrite that pattern.

From individual coaching to organizational strategy, he helps leaders and teams eliminate friction, embrace honest conflict, and stop the culture of quiet quitting. When the right people are in the right roles doing the right work, everything accelerates. Teams execute. Leaders thrive.


THE NEXT LEVEL CODE

Alignment First. Progress Always!

The broken fourth star in the logo tells the story. Inspired by Mycal’s military background, the stars reflect a continual pursuit of excellence across four domains: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual being. The fourth remains unfinished because we’re never done. The process is the point.


WHERE HE’S BEEN FEATURED

Radio Business X. Barbell Shrugged. Gym Lords. The Eagle Podcast. Paradise Valley Lifestyle Magazine. Amazon. Charles Schwab. ASU. Mycal’s message resonates because it’s real. You don’t need hype. You need to get aligned.

BEFORE WORKING WITH MYCAL & NEXT LEVEL, I STRUGGLED WITH OVERTHINKING AND EMOTIONAL OVERWHELM.

I've gained clarity, accountability, and sustained progress, not just short bursts of motivation. What sets this coaching apart is the face-to-face connection, deep assessments, and actionable insights. I now lead with more authenticity, take meaningful risks, and embrace real growth. If you’re on the fence, trust the process and show up fully. You’ll see results.

I CAME TO NEXT LEVEL LOST IN GRIEF, UNSURE OF WHO I WAS OR WHAT I EVEN WANTED.

This process didn’t just change my habits — it rebuilt me. Mentally, physically, and spiritually. Since joining, I’ve increased my income by 30%, healed key relationships, and stepped into the courage to run for public office. I found my voice. Next Level taught me to lead with presence, own my power, and fall in love with the process. The impact touches every part of my life.

Before working with Mycal, consistency was a struggle.

Now, I show up consistently and am in the best shape of my life at 61. The workouts are always fun and varied, which keeps me engaged. I’ve learned that strength breeds confidence, and confidence pays dividends in all aspects of life. I trust Mycal completely—when he says 10 reps, I do 10. Mycal knows what he’s doing, and I’m living proof of the results.

Before coaching, I struggled with confidence and trusting my voice.

Through this process, I’ve learned to share my thoughts confidently. The hot seat sessions offered great opportunities for self-reflection, while the Birkman Assessment helped me understand my strengths and areas for improvement in communication. I also realized that some of us are in survival mode, while others thrive—understanding where we are on that spectrum is key to personal growth. This coaching has empowered me to step into my potential.

I was holding myself back; comfortable, but underperforming

Next Level didn’t just hold me accountable — it challenged me to scale with integrity. Since I started coaching, I’ve grown my company from $2–4M to over $10–15M annually and redefined success beyond numbers. This work reshaped how I lead, live, and love. Our team now thrives on the very principles I had to embody first: ownership, alignment, and discipline. If you’re ready to stop coasting and start becoming — this is your path.

Before coaching, I felt stuck and alone in my career.

With Mycal’s guidance, I’ve more than doubled my income, built a consistent client base, and improved communication in my personal life. The workshops in the Leader’s Forum helped me gain clarity and solve problems effectively. I’ve experienced tremendous personal and professional growth, boosting my confidence and skills. If you’re ready to play the long game and reach your potential, Mycal and the Leader’s Forum are the way to go.
