Fortitude Functional Fitness

Over the course of my training with Matt, I’ve gone from lumpy-wino to fit AF. At 39, I’m in the best shape I’ve ever been in. Matt is constantly coming up with new exercises to keep things from becoming monotonous and he tracks my progress so I can see how far I’ve come. Matt is hands-down the best trainer you’ll find in Edmonton. He’s versatile in his knowledge—CrossFit, Weightlifting, Obstacle Course Racing, and Running.I’ve lost 15lbs.I’ve never felt better about myself, and even through Covid Matt has led me through a plan to stay on top of my health and fitness.

Matt exemplifies what I want in a trainer. He actively listens and seeks feedback. He is constantly striving to learn and improve, he is creative, positive, and tough!When the pandemic hit, Matt didn’t fade into the shadows and feel sorry for himself. He rolled up his sleeves, made outdoor workout kits, and created a really fun and tough OCR league. Very impressive.

Matt is truly an expert in the fitness industry. He is always learning and has so much knowledge. He is passionate about training his clients and helping them reach their goals.I’ve watched him compete and win in CrossFit, ninja warrior and obstacle course races.With the covid pandemic, almost of the OCR course races were cancelled. People still craved the competitive races so Matt came up with a safe and distanced OCR league with tire and weight kits he designed himself.To say him proud of him is an understatement. He is so creative, innovative, and always happy and positive.If you are looking for a personal trainer, or online programming to help you get the most out of your home gym set up, Matt is your best choice.

Matt is sooo knowledgable and very personable. Its never boring as he seems to be able to tell you are ready for something new, before you are.

I really like the online-program training during this time. It was personalized to fit your home! In-person is always better, but it was great to have Matt offer an alternative.I appreciate Matt’s passion for what he does. I’d say he is the most experienced and knowledgeable trainer. He leads by example. Whatever you’re doing he has either already done, or is doing right there with you.Thanks Functional Fortitude Fitness

Although we started out in the gym, the outdoor workouts that Matt has developed for me and my buddies have been amazing. I’m in the best shape of my life in the middle of a pandemic! Thanks, Matt!

Matt has been programming for me since 2019, and is by far one of the best trainers I have worked with over the years. Matt knows how to program based on personal fitness goals, and has amazing knowledge on how to achieve your results, and also how to sustainably increase fitness levels without hitting burnout. Matt also adapted to programming for me at the gym, and for my equipment limitations from my home gym the last 6 months. I would recommend Matt to anyone looking to hit their personal fitness goals, and making a sustainable lifestyle change

Amazing trainer! He will not disappoint. Matt is personable, knowledgeable, and will motivate you to meet your goals. Highly recommended!!!
