Michael Johnson (bodybuilder)

Early in his life, Johnson admired the physiques of professional wrestlers and developed a love for bodybuilding. At age 17, he was nicknamed "Tiny" due to being only 5'8" (1.73 m) and weighing 135 lbs (62 kg). Over the course of a year, Johnson gained 30 lbs of muscle. In January 1999, he joined the Canadian Infantry Reserves before later choosing to study for a college degree in Kinesiology in September 1999.

Johnson entered his first bodybuilding contest in 2002 where he took 1st Place at the Mens Junior Atlantic Championships. He earned his IFBB Pro card in 2011 when he won the Canadian National Championships in the Mens Superheavyweight Class. He is now a teacher for general employment in Cathey Middle School.
