I am an experienced American Council of Exercise (ACE) certified personal trainer (CPT) and fitness nutrition specialist (FNS) with a background in many health related fields. Throughout my career, I've developed a client base of over 70+ individuals all with unique goals that I helped each one accomplish.
My dual degree degree in Biological Science: Biomedical Emphasis at Baruch College and Health & Exercise Science at Syracuse University; 700+ hours of client training experience, as well as the 300+ hours spent in a rehab environment is what shaped my training abilities in to some of the most practical and effective methods available.
My specialties are strength/resistance training, weight-loss, muscle gain, toning, rehab, and functional training. I have experience with clients from the age of 13-80, some of which were cancer survivors, post op, shoulder/back/neck/knee pain, obese, sciatica, herniated disk, ACL injry, meniscus tear, labrum tear (Hip & Shoulder). As your trainer, we will tackle your goals together and ensure we achieve them. I guarantee it!!

As an 67 year old male with numerous health complications, I struggled to find the right trainer for me. Matthew was an amazing bright trainer who was able to help me progress beyond my debilitating issue and get fit before I moved back to Florida!! Highly recommended trainer!!
Matt is reliable, knowledgeable and really enjoys training. I would recommend him without hesitation.
I can't say enough good things about Matt as a trainer. He seems to be able to understand where you you are- overall and that day- and give you clear instruction, sequence and targeted exercises. His knowledge base and ability to clarify the "why and how" this fits together individually is remarkable. The session does fly by-and I feel challenged, encouraged and looking forward to more. PS- People (ie spouse and friends-immediately said they saw a difference-didn't expect that so soon)
