Testimonials

I thoroughly recommend Matt to anyone. He’s knowledgeable and professional. He understands and enables you to meet your fitness goals whatever they are. He is genuinely supportive but always pushes you to achieve more. Matt works to constantly develop and increase his depth of knowledge in all aspect of his training. I don’t know of anyone else who is so thorough in delivering the best to his clients.

Waist 92.5cm – 81.5cm

Weight 87.5kg – 81kg

I decided to work with Matt after being handed one of his leaflets at the train station.  I was already going to the gym and have a pretty decent knowledge of training and nutrition but I had lost my way and needed to be put back on track.

I saw Matt once a week and each week he’d change things up – all with the my goal of losing weight, getting leaner and stronger in mind.  I like doing weights anyway so his training was perfect for me.

Matt also devised a nutrition plan which was easy to follow and fundamental in me losing a stone in weight.  I know it could have been more but that was my own doing.

If you’re looking to lose weight or body fat, tone up, increase muscle mass or just get some new training ideas I would suggest you see Matt – I’ve no doubt he can start you on your training journey, give you some better direction with your current training or just shake it up a bit (which in my opinion everyone needs from time to time) he’s the Personal Trainer for you.

Training with Matt has allowed me to find enjoyment in working out. I have tried many exercise regimes but not been able to lose weight past a certain point. He has pushed me to get past this and tone up the places I wanted and completely change my body shape! Always fun, never repetitive and I’m really happy Matt has helped me get my body to where I want it to be.

I spend a lot of time driving for my job & this makes it hard to find time to eat a decent meal. I found myself snacking on junk food during the day & not really doing much with my spare time so I turned to Matt for some help and advice on getting into better shape and eating better. Matt structured a training programme & some eating tips to get me into the best shape of my life.

I went from 18% to 11% body fat in just 4 weeks! I dropped a dress size and ive never been so toned!

I loved the training and Matt made the sessions tough but really fun!

With only four months before my wedding, I was really struggling to loose the excess weight and  tone up before the big day.

Matt was instrumental in me me dropping 7 cm off my waist and finally getting me to a size 10 which I had been longing for for years. The varied exercises and adaptable diet plans really made the journey easier. His knowledge and expertise made the journey of loosing weight and getting healthy a great success!

Thank you for all the help and motivation!

Matt is great banter and despite being extremely knowledgeable in all the areas in which I have quizzed him, he is reliable! He motivated and re-educated me according to my goals and he won¹t let you slack. I lost 6% body-fat, grew 6cm on my chest, 3cm on arms and dropped 6cm off my waist.

A Personal Trainer it’s fair to say you can trust.

I’ve had other trainers before but without a doubt Matt is the best I’ve had! He is extremely knowledgeable and has used this knowledge to completely change my body shape to the best it’s ever been. My bum has been completely uplifted & my arms are so toned! All the sessions were fun & enjoyable & Matt’s friendly nature has made me comfortable and more confident in the gym

Ever since I had my second child I have been working with various personal trainers to return my body to its optimum strength and gain muscle tone and in my opinion Matt has exceeded all of them. As a pole fitness instructor, it is important for me to keep my body lean and incredibly strong, particularly my core, and training with Matt has seen me achieve the best results I’ve ever had with a personal trainer.

Matt tailor-makes his sessions with your personal goals in mind and his knowledge of the body and nutrition is unrivalled – I have learned a lot from him. His sessions are always varied and challenging and his approach is encouraging and professional. He works you hard – and you see the results! I always come away from one of our sessions on a high.

After having a baby in December, I wanted to shift the extra weight I gained during pregnancy but needed a diet and exercise plan I could realistically stick to with a new baby and while breastfeeding.

Working with Matt made this possible and really enjoyable too. I strengthened and toned at the gym and used his nutritional expertise to completely change my diet helping me to lose all the weight I had gained during pregnancy.

After only a couple of sessions I started to see a difference and feel myself again. I even managed to squeeze into my pre pregnancy jeans! This gave me a real confidence boost and the motivation I needed to get back into shape for the summer.

Matt and I met once a week but he was always on hand to answer questions or help me if I needed him. His sessions we hard work but good fun and I would thoroughly recommend him to anyone looking to shift a few pounds after having a baby or just wanting to tone up and feel great. Thanks Matt.

After having my little baby I trained with Matt to lose the weight I gained during pregnancy

Weeks later & I weighed less than I did before I was pregnant, I haven’t been 9 stone in years!

I am now happy with my body shape and am really toned. Matt also taught me the best ways to maintain my weight and how to keep my metabolism high with nutrition.

During my consultation with Matt I told him I have a wedding in just under a month and I’ve been attending the gym but seeing no results. I was overweight and had low self-esteem. From Matt I wanted a professional training programme that would help me become stronger, leaner and fitter. I constantly see evidence of improvement & feel great too. Matt knows his stuff! He’s also very personable, positive & extremely motivating. He varies my sessions regularly incorporating new exercises and find ways to make standard exercises more interesting. The variety means I’ve never had a dull session. I would really recommend Matt as he has taught me health is wealth & he guarantees results!

With a busy work timetable and a 24 hour shift pattern, I found training for the London Marathon impossible. With 5 weeks to go, a maximum of being able to run 4 miles and no definitive training ahead of me, I called upon Matt to help me turn my feelings around that maybe the finishing line could still be achievable. After assessing me and teaching me exercises to build strength in my legs and hips, I found I was able to carry myself that bit further week by week. It excited me that my goal of just passing the finishing line of the 26.2 mile course maybe now was obtainable. Within five weeks Matt had doubled my running ability, and then on the day I was able to run to the 13.1 mile halfway mark without stopping, and then fast walk the rest achieving a time of 6 hrs 4 mins. Thank you Matt for helping me accomplish the best thing I have ever done AND in record time!!!

Matt was my trainer also I saw him as my mentor. Having gained a qualification in personal training and not having the experience and knowledge Matt has, not only did he train me to get me into the best shape I have ever been, he also educated me and gave me tips and advice that I could use to put into my knowledge. I have trained with a few personal trainers but Matt is by far the best professional you can work with! His discipline & knowledgeable approach to the programmes he provides is just 10/10! I can personally say he will get you where you want to be! Hope to train again with you soon Matt

Thanks to Matt I met my goal to lose 5kg & I’m the most toned I’ve ever been. Before I started personal training I was doing long cardio workouts in the gym, but this wasn’t enough to stop me gaining weight. Matt taught me a different workout every session, adding in resistance training & making cardio more interesting and intense. The new challenges each week kept me motivated & it wasn’t long before I started receiving compliments. Perhaps most importantly Matt taught me about nutrition & how to exercise more effectively, so now I’ve achieved my goals & I feel confident in maintaining the results.

I have always been active so when I injured my lower back during training I was devastated. Matt told me he could help me with my recovery so after thinking about Matts offer I decided to give it a try as all the practitioners I had seen previously had not been able to help. Each session was painful but, I can honestly say I was beginning to see & feel the results as my lower back pain started to decrease, and I became more flexible and stronger! So much so, I was able to take part in a recent charity challenge which included a 15 minute plank. I even managed to raise a staggering £790 in aid of cancer relief and even dropped 8cm off my waist measurement with Matts help! I would recommend Matt to anyone who feels they need help getting back to fitness from an injury like I have endured, …

I chose to train with matt after I developed a knee injury and performance when I was teaching fitness classes was becoming affected. Matt was very professional. He did some initial movement analysis before the rehab process. Training programmes were diverse & very tiring but after only a few sessions I felt the difference. I can now work without pain or discomfort and I owe this to Matt. I would definitely work with matt again – his knowledge is second to none & I have already recommended my friends to work with him.

Waist measurement at start 109.5cm

Waist measurement at finish 95cm

Matt has been an amazing help to my progress, not just to my fitness and strength but to my lifestyle and diet as well. The sessions we had together we’re great and left me feeling confident to go into the gym by myself and do my own thing without him looking over my shoulder. His knowledge shone through our sessions, not only teaching me great workouts but also teaching me why I’m doing them and what I’ll achieve from it. Overall I really enjoyed our time together and would now call him a friend more than a trainer.

I have been going to the gym for quite a number of years and I have always been fairly happy with my training, fitness levels and body shape apart from my legs they’ve always been the wrong size for the rest of my body and I’ve never been able to change their shape regardless of my training efforts.

I used to do three 40 minutes cardio sessions a week and use some weight training but wasn’t really seeing the result I should have for that kind of effort so I decided to sign up for a personal trainer at the gym and that’s when I met Matt.  We started training for three 1 hour sessions a week and within four weeks I had lost inches all over but more importantly my legs had changed shape losing the chunky thighs was brilliant, no longer a pear shape, my body fat also went down by a considerable amount which is great. I was a very happy lady. The sessions were always varied, exercises and techniques changed making it more enjoyable and not so much of a task and Matt is also good at motivating you without making you feel like you are training for a marathon.  I looked forward to our sessions and we had a laugh too, Matt’s approach is extremely professional and his knowledge of human physiology and training techniques are first class.

I never thought a personal trainer would be for me but as it turns out it was money well spent!!

I considered my level of training and nutrition knowledge to be pretty ok, so when I hit a serious Plateau I went to Matt for a proper dietary arse-kicking along with some new and inspiring workout routines. Seeing Matt once a month and using his programmes in between his PT sessions, I was able to lower my body fat in 12 weeks, where previously I had made no progress in that area for years. I also increased my strength and was able to hold my body weight for a lot longer and my core became a lot stronger which has eliminated backaches which I was plagued with for years!

Matt’s knowledge is very in depth and I would recommend him as a committed and passionate trainer who seems able to deliver results even to a person who absolutely LOVES food!”

During the time I spent training with matt I wasn’t always as strict with my diet as I could have been but I lost over 2 stone! I was so happy with my progress & everyone keeps telling me how good I look!

Thanks Matt

I trained with Matt over the summer before my holiday to Ibiza. I wanted to tone up and lose weight to get a healthy looking beach body! Matt was able to provide us with training, a diet plan & weekly measurements. The diet plan seemed a struggle at first but Matt was there every step of the way to encourage and help us by keeping regular contact & after just 4 weeks. I had lost 7cm around my waist and 5cm off my hips!! Matt’s workouts were fun yet intense, but what was great was that I had a new workout every day! Matt also gave me a book with all the workouts in so that when I wasn’t training with him I could carry on with his workouts! I would recommend Matt if you’re looking for a fun and fast way to tone up and lose weight! Matt showed me that if you have determination losing weight can be quick and fun!

I always enjoyed the gym, mainly for social reasons but also to keep healthy. I still enjoy a few pints at the weekend & also the odd takeaway/restaurant. But since working with Matt I’ve dropped 11lbs in 5 weeks!!

Just following a few easy dietary changes & a few changes to my training I managed to shift nearly a stone ready for my holiday.

Matt has helped me strengthen & condition my body which I hope will mean I won’t get injured so much in the future. His vast knowledge has been a help on many occasions, in giving me good advice on a host of different injury problems & leading me to a very successful 2011 winning a medal at the European championships and 3 gold medals representing England. Also 1 gold and 1 silver in 2012.

I would recommend you to any serious sportsman looking for peak performance.

I really enjoyed training with Matt, all the sessions were fun but hard work. I lost 10cm from my waist & 4cm from my hips during my time training with him & I’m still losing. He is extremely knowledgeable about nutrition and has completely re-educated me on how to eat well to look my best.  I would highly recommend him.

I trained in dance for many years before becoming a teacher & when teaching my training went on the back burner. After a while I wanted to get more toned and feel more energetic to enhance my career & to feel good for my upcoming wedding

My gym routine was the same for nearly 10 years, it would take me about 2 hours to do the lot  and I guess doing the same thing for so long wasn’t really making much of a difference to me body, hence the big slump in my routine. Then Matt came along and has introduced a whole new way to training using weights and intervals which I never would have considered before, ( I was under the impression only hours of cardio would do & weights would make me look like a drag queen). However it worked, in 4 weeks I lost 4% body fat, I am more toned than ever, feel energised & get though a thorough workout in an hour which is much better for my work schedule! It’s been great! Matt gave me ideas on what I should eat to enhance my results and introduced exercises that are really working.

Thanks Matt

When I first started training with Matt I was completely clueless! Having never been to a gym before or really been a fan of exercise I was very apprehensive. Matt introduced me to a whole new way of thinking in terms of diet and exercise and I found it really helpful.

Matt put together a diet plan for me, taking into consideration my likes and dislikes, and also delivered exciting training sessions which I really enjoyed!

Every training session was different and also completely personalised to me. Matt was always motivating during sessions and also always there for diet tips when needed! In my first week of training I lost 6cm from my waist which before I would have never thought possible!

Thanks to Matt I feel like I now have a much more positive attitude towards health and fitness.

Changing my lifestyle and food habits was difficult but my personal training sessions with Matt made me realise that with hard work and persistence I will reach my goals. He was always positive and gave me confidence. I was visibly losing weight and after 10 sessions I lost 7cm on my waist and have just completed my first 10k run….something I never thought I could do! Thanks Matt!

Matt has really helped me focus my efforts in the gym. From doing the same thing week in week out on my own he’s revolutionized the way I think and has helped me fully assess my diet, the exercises I’m doing and why I should do them. After training with Matt I feel much healthier and I have lost 7cm from my waist! I can only recommend using Matt. Be prepared to work hard!

Having trained for years and previously been a personal trainer myself I had got to a point where it was hard to lose weight and body fat. During a consultation with Matt I discussed what I wanted to achieve which was a totally new body image! I started training with Matt & having trained with numerous trainers in the past I noticed straight away that the quality of his packages were superior to anyone else’s. He put a training & easy to follow diet plan together straight away, this set me up & got me motivated from day one.

4 weeks into training and following the plan I have lost 5% body fat & feel great, training is hard but my energy levels have sky rocketed! Matt is constantly giving me feedback & advising me on small changes required to keep me on track & always checking that my exercise technique is spot on. I would recommend Matt as your personal trainer, in a word; Detailed!
