Matthew Fox Personal Training

I am a personal trainer who believes in fundamental, technically proficient training, underpinned by a sound nutritional base and hard work. Informed by scientific research and client success, my training works.

TESTIMONIALS

I began training with Matt because I wanted to lose a stone and trying to do it myself wasn’t working. After 6 weeks of training with Matt twice a week and following his diet and exercise advice I had lost 10 pounds. After 4months I had reached my target weight and am still training with him a year later and have successfully kept the weight off.
Each session is varied and enjoyable and Matt is great at keeping me motivated and positive. I am achieving goals in the gym that I never thought possible and I certainly owe Matt a lot for the results he has helped me achieve!

I started strongman in 2010, but had only done a small amount of strength training so looked for some help from Matt Fox. Since then I have gone on and won everything from regional competitions to Europe’s Strongest Man. I’m in no doubt I couldn’t have done this without his help. I’m still competing and although I’m at the top of my game I still seek advice from Matt and always will.

I really enjoy the paired training sessions because I not only get to train with Matt but also with a friend. It is fun to work alongside another client as you can encourage each other and it means you can get a brief and well- earned rest while they do some of the exercise, which is always welcome in the middle of an intensive cardio session. Also it is great value for money as you get all the benefit and double the fun for half the price.
You are never too old to start working with a Personal Trainer but I wish I had begun it years earlier. Whatever your age, shape or weight it is never too soon to start and since I have been training, I now stand taller, move more freely and smile at my reflection. My posture has particularly improved during my training with Matt, after years with slumping shoulders I am now able to correct it and I feel so much better. Friends keep telling me how well I look.
I know that I would not stick to a gym routine on my own and that I would not push myself to my limits to achieve the results that I wish for. That is why I train with Matt. I know that you cannot buy good health but you can invest in a healthier lifestyle. Matt is able to train the body, programme the mind-set and encourage the spirit to stay on track and achieve the desired results. You can have the fitter body that you want but you do have to work for it in time and effort. Personal Training is worth every penny to keep you going.
If you have an injury or weakness it does not mean that you cannot train for improvement. I have benefited from Matt’s re-hab sessions regarding a knee weakness and an eye problem. In both cases Matt researched about the condition and compiled a personalised programme that supported and enabled me to continue with my training. He is very patient in gently working on my recovery and has come up with some very interesting and fun alternatives to my regular training exercises. Matt respects each client’s personal needs and individuality, tailoring the sessions to their short and long term goals. He gives feedback during and at the end of each session so you know where you have improved and how to if not! !
Matt has a very calm, re-assuring manner in dealing with his clients. He has great patience when I did not quickly grasp some of the technical points in my training. Although he is constantly pushing me forward, it is at a pace that I can manage and I never feel inadequate if I am unable to achieve particular moves within a session. Matt is a perfectionist in technique who always strives to improve his client’s technical performance. He is able to re-invent moves in different ways to encourage people to achieve the desired improvement in body strength, posture and technique. Matt’s considerable knowledge and understanding of anatomy and physiology is evident in his ability to transfer his technical knowledge into practical ‘can do’ moves for his clients. He has been very innovative in his methods to encourage and challenge me.
