Coaches, if this upsets you, it most likely becuase your doing it and you're going to try to justify it.

Your programme should be written ahead of time and in advance!

There is alwasy excetions, but.... as a coach i write blocks for my clients, toward the end of a block, we are discussing the next one!

Tweaks might be made based on feedback, but overall, the structure is there, the client can see 2 weeks ahead, and both of us can see upcoming things and get on top of them as soon as one of us sees them!

If you disagree im not saying you're wrong i just personally don't think it's great as a coach with so many apps out there to help us coach.

Look forward to hearing from coaches who panic program on the weekends

Throw back to Andys succsess!

10 weeks down 18lbs lost 💪🏻
Here's what Andy has to say... “So... 10 weeks ago, I decided (with a little inspiration from my wife and a little persuasion from to stop being lazy and join a group fitness session. My main goals were to loose weight, but also gain a bit of muscle. 10 weeks on and I have to say it has been a great success. The group training kept me pushing and on track, the nutritional advice really helped, Matt is great and I have actually really enjoyed it! In these 10 weeks I lost 18lbs (3inches off my stomach) and gained about 1/2 inch on both arms, but by far the best thing is I feel great, and can actually notice the body shape changes! Thanks, Matt!”

SAVE THIS if kipping HSPU are your current headache 😅🤸🏼‍♂️

If your kip feels inconsistent, you’re getting no pop, or you’re smoking your neck/arms… it’s usually a timing + position issue, not just “more grit”.

This is a drill/progression you can use to clean it up and make reps feel lighter.

Want me to help you fix yours?
DM me “HSPU” and tell me where you struggle!

This review genuinely made my day. ❤️
some snippets:
“From day one, he has helped me transform not just my workouts, but my understanding of my body, nutrition, and what actually works for me.”
“The support goes far beyond exercise… the guidance around diet, balance, and sustainable habits has been invaluable.”
“If you’re looking for a trainer who truly cares, empowers you, and helps you build confidence in both your body and your mindset… Matt is the one.”

This is exactly how I want every client to feel: supported, challenged (in the right way), and confident in what they’re doing — in training and outside the gym.

Big shoutout to Kika for putting the work in and trusting the process. Consistency like that is what creates real change. honeslty been a pleasure to work with this woman and watch her building, growing and bettering herself inside and outside of the gym.

SAVE THIS if you’ve been thinking about getting a coach.
If you want help with your training, nutrition, and a plan that actually fits your life — DM me “COACH” and I’ll tell you what to do first.

SAVE THIS if you’re thinking about an online coach for weight loss 📲✅

Online coaching isn’t just “a workout plan”.
It’s everything you need to actually stick to it and get results without guessing.

What you get when you work with me:

✅ Training plan built for YOU (goal, schedule, injuries, kit, experience)
✅ Progressions + structure so it gets harder in the right way
✅ Nutrition guidance that’s realistic (calories/macros or simple targets)
✅ Accountability — weekly check-ins + adjustments based on your data
✅ Habit coaching (steps, sleep, routines, weekends, consistency)
✅ Support in real life — when motivation drops, stress hits, or life gets busy
✅ Confidence because you know exactly what to do each day

If you’ve been “trying” for ages but nothing sticks… You don’t need more motivation. You need a plan + someone to keep you on track.

DM me “ONLINE” and tell me your goal (fat loss/tone up / strength/fitness) and I’ll tell you what the best starting point is.

⭐️CLIENT SUCCESS ⭐️

I was working with for just under a year to get these results, and in that time, he’s lost 12kg while becoming extremely strong and incredibly confident in himself!

We’ve been working online with a focus on weight loss and improving his CrossFit performance. Since we started, he’s made huge improvements across all of his lifts and learned new skills like toes-to-bar, butterfly pull-ups, handstand push-ups, and double-unders.

Rod had been doing CrossFit for 5+ years before we started, so he came in with a solid foundation. However, the bespoke coaching and nutritional support we’ve put in place have taken him to the next level—stronger, fitter, leaner, and happier!

How are you picking your online coach? 🤔

Are you picking someone just because they’ve got a six-pack and loads of followers?
Or are you picking someone who actually gets results with real people?

Because here’s the truth:

Followers don’t make you a good coach

Aesthetics don’t make you a good coach

RESULTS do

Look for the coach who:

Shows client progress, not just their own

Talks about habits, support and education, not just “grind harder”

Actually answers questions instead of flexing in every post

Has clients who’ve stayed with them for months and years, not just 6-week before/afters

Hiring a coach is more than buying a training plan – you’re trusting someone with your time, effort, money and health.

Next time you’re scrolling for a coach, ask yourself:
“Do I want a fitness influencer… or a coach who can actually help me change?”

✨ 5-Month Progress: Before & After ✨

Check out this amazing transformation over 5 months! The goal was simple—get leaner while focusing on building legs and glutes, and as you can see from the progress, we absolutely nailed it!

and I worked together on a 3-day-a-week plan that was challenging yet rewarding. My client stayed consistent, and the results speak for themselves. 💪

Here’s what they had to say:
“Matt’s helped me come so far on my fitness journey! I’ve been a right handful at times, and he’s helped me through every bump in the road! Could not find a better PT/online coach if you tried :)” 😂

I had to laugh at this one—but seriously, it’s been incredible to see this transformation! Thanks for trusting me every step of the way.

Ready to build your legs and glutes? DM me to start your journey!

7 moves to level up your gymnastics.
Master these and everything else gets easier—pull-ups, toes-to-bar, HSPU, even bar muscle-ups. Not sexy, just foundations done well.

Why add them

Build the positions (hollow/arch, midline, scap control)

Build strict strength so kipping has somewhere to go

Clean up timing & tension so reps look smooth, not scrappy

Reduce overuse by spreading the right work across the week

How to use this video

2–3×/week, 10–15 min skill block

Put it after your warm-up (before the metcon)

EMOM or E2MOM, 3–5 quality sets—stop 1–2 reps before form breaks

Use tempos/pauses to make light work hard (e.g., 31X1, 22X1)

Track one thing: reps at quality, shorter band/box, slower tempo, tighter shapes

Simple progression (save this)
Week 1–2: accumulate crisp reps
Week 3–4: add a pause/tempo
Week 5–6: reduce assistance or increase ROM
Week 7–8: re-test strict maxes/holds

Consistency > hero sets. Nail these 7 and your “big” skills stop feeling like magic tricks.

The worst thing you can do for fat loss? Not track anything.
And honestly… why wouldn’t you?

We track anything that’s important to us:
Your money ✅
Your steps ✅
Your PBs in the gym ✅
But when it comes to fat loss, suddenly it’s “I’ll just wing it and hope for the best.”

If you’re not seeing progress, it’s usually not because your body is “broken”…
It’s because you’re guessing, not measuring.
Here are a few things you can track (you don’t have to do all of them):

Food – calories, protein, or even just portions

Steps/movement – are you actually active or just “busy”?

Scale weight – not daily mood swings, but weekly trends

Photos & measurements – your clothes and progress pics don’t lie

Training – weights, sets, reps, how often you’re actually showing up

Tracking isn’t about being obsessive.
It’s about having data, so you can make good decisions instead of guessing every Monday why nothing’s changing.

If you want help setting up something simple you can actually stick to, drop me a message and I’ll talk you through what I’d track if I were you. 📩🔥

Client spotlight: GILLIAN 💪💚

This is Gillian. She’s 62 years old, had never stepped foot in a gym before we started, and now she’s dropping weight, inches and is stronger than ever.

When we first started, the goal wasn’t to do anything crazy – it was simply to:

Move more

Get stronger

Feel better in herself

And prove to herself that she could do it

We’ve been doing PT twice a week, focusing on the basics done well:

Strength training with good technique

Building confidence in the gym

Consistent sessions, week after week

The result?
✅ Clothes fit better
✅ Inches lost
✅ More energy and strength
✅ And a massive shift in confidence

Her before and after speaks for itself – but what you can’t see in the photos is how different she feels.

Gillian is proof that it is never too late to start, and that you don’t have to be “fit” to begin – you just have to be willing to show up and try.

If you’re worried you’ve left it too long, or feel nervous about starting in the gym, send me a message. This could be you in the next set of photos. 📩✨
