Matt is super knowledgeable about the body and training. He’s helped me with my back (I have spinal stenosis) for 8 years and has helped with my flexibility and keeping my pain under control.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I am not the cheapest nor am I the most expensive. However, I will challenge you to find anyone with my years of experience, education, and background that is better suited to be your Professional Trainer than me.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We start with a health and fitness evaluation. You have to know where you started so you know if you are making progress, and celebrating the little victories along the way. Weekly, monthly and yearly goals are also important. Consistent weekly workouts, striving to reach your goals.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a BS Degree from WVU, ACE Certified, ISSA CPT II, NASN, and PCDI Sports & Fitness, Nutritionist
