I’ve been coming to Xcelerate for a while now. Matt is a great trainer who knows when to encourage me, and keep me improving. (He keeps a record of everything)! A few years ago I had a stroke, so sometimes need extra guidance, and Matt helps me achieve my best.

Matt is a thoughtful trainer who listens to his clients and caters to their specific needs. I have already seen a huge difference after 8 weeks of training and feel much stronger now as a result. Highly recommend to anyone wanting to get in better shape and feel better.

Mat is a great PT with a wealth of knowledge across the field. Loved his workouts! Would definitely recommend.
Chris Croucamp
★★★★★
Matt is a great trainer. I have worked with him for nearly 2 years now and he has helped me significantly build my strength and cardio fitness. He genuinely cares about his clients and in addition to improving my fitness, has also provided some great guidance on diet and sleeping habits. He has also somehow got me running again (something I haven't done for years and years). Would highly recommend him for one on one coaching or group sessions.

After 5 years of not being able to shift my weight, Mat helped me reach my target goal (5 kg less) within 4 months. And my weight has stabilised at my ideal weight. Mat gives a killer work out backed by realistic advice on lifestyle and eating. I highly recommend Mat.

★★★★★
Matt has been looking after my fitness for many years now and has never been less than excellent. He has lifted me when I have felt lazy and when I have felt energised he has inspired me to achieve more than I imagined possible. In short for the last 10 years or so he has added fun to my life.

XAVIER’S JOURNEY

Need to work on the waistline and mental wellbeing…

Xavier (male, aged 30): Xavier came to me after a break up wanting to lose some weight and get into a better head space. Since then he has lost over 7kg’s and put it back on and off again overtime.


We continue to work on his goals of fasting and eating clean with 3 cardio sessions outside of my session per week. He enjoys boxing and we compete weekly in our point sparring match. Xavier will report that our routine has changed his life for the better by increasing his overall happiness and success in life.

“I’ve lost weight but more importantly got balance back to my busy head. Love the boxing for both health and the headspace. Mat has helped me accelerate my health and my happiness. He’s a great guy and the training is fun!”

DISCOVER TIJANA'S JOURNEY

Want to train hard and accelerate your results…

Tijana (female, aged 28): Tia has a large appetite for exercise and needs to be pushed hard twice a week. Her goals include staying toned and to be able to run 10k’s twice a week. We work on ankle stability as she has sprained her ankle before among many other facets of her health. Tia has train with me since 2015.

“Training with Mat has been the best investment I have ever made for my health. I’ve been doing weekly sessions for 4 years and I’ve never questioned the commitment. I wouldn’t have the lifestyle I have today if it weren’t for his guidance and support. Every session is different and challenging, but also tailored to my fitness and how I feel on the day. Highly recommend!”

ROYSTON'S JOURNEY

Outsource my training otherwise I just don’t do it…

Royston: Prefers to outsource his health and fitness to us because he has little time and energy to allocate for himself. He likes to train outdoors and in a more comforting environment. Loves boxing and has improved with technique and muscle mass through his strength movements.

 
We have worked through many niggling injuries such as tension headaches and shoulder immobility. Royston has been training with me since 2014.

“I’ve lost weight but more importantly got balance back to my busy head. Love the boxing for both health and the headspace. Mat has helped me accelerate my health and my happiness. He’s a great guy and the training is fun!”
