“I have been training with Matt for 2 years now. I have always been an athlete as well a spin instructor. I do marathons, triathlons and 200-mile bike challenges. I sought out a professional because I was getting stuck in my routine and I knew that as I age I would have to ramp up other aspects of my routine to ensure that I can exercise and stay injury free through my twilight years.

Matt has been instrumental in keeping me injury free and more competitive than I was when I was younger.  He offers up routines of various stages of difficulty and length of time. His routines are never boring or repetitive. I never know when I will be doing burpees, jumping jacks or the military crawl.

He is able to individualize my routines based on my age and preferences.  He is committed to making sure that I maintain strength, flexibility and balance.  He explained how important a stretching routine was and allows enough time after each session to fully stretch.  I have more muscle growth, better circulation, fuller range of motion and increased speed and power because of him.  He also counsels me on getting enough sleep and trying to include recovery days into my schedule.

I highly recommend Matt and have already referred him to friends who are equally satisfied.”

“Matt Supple is an outstanding personal trainer. He’s tough, he’s smart, he’s highly knowledgeable about his profession, and he’s a great guy. A hard combination to beat. He’ll supplement his training with state-of-the-art nutrition and dieting advice. I would recommend him wholeheartedly.”

“When I needed a gym trainer after I had completed cardio rehab, I was very pleased to be paired with Matt Supple. He is very knowledgeable, kind & most encouraging, pushing me when needed and knows just how to get me to advance. He is patient with my lack of experience at a gym & we have come a long way in improving my balance, flexibility, strength & heart health. I look forward to my sessions with him as his warm personality enhances his teaching abilities & I would recommend him to any age but particularly to seniors with whom he is most gracious.”

“Matt is a knowledgeable trainer who is easy to work with and learn from. No two workouts are identical which keeps it fun and challenges my body. It is obvious that Matt has a genuine interest in physical fitness and is constantly striving to educate himself about human anatomy and the current trends in fitness so he can anticipate and meet the needs of his clients; he is always able to explain why you are doing what you are doing.

I workout twice a week: once on my own and once with my husband. Matt seamlessly transitions between the two types of workouts, adapting them based on our strengths, injuries, and goals. Matt does more than just make me exercise – he makes me think about my goals and habits. His enthusiasm and positive attitude motivate me, hold me accountable, and make me want succeed. After only a few months with Matt, my weight, blood pressure, and resting heart rate have all decreased, my energy and flexibility have increased, and my attitudes towards exercise and food have changed for the better. I look forward to working out with him and always feel great when I leave!”

“I would highly recommend Matt as a personal trainer to anyone. He is very knowledgeable about fitness and nutrition. Matt is very good at analyzing your strengths and weaknesses and he pays attention to how you learn. He tailors your fitness sessions to meet your individual needs. He has kept me accountable by staying in close contact with email, calls and texts. He always gives me tips and words of encouragement. I Just passed my Federal Bureau of Prisons Officer Basic Physical Fitness Test and I wouldn’t have been able to do it without his encouragement and education.”

“I’ve known Matt for about a year now.  He keeps me on the straight and narrow regarding my body.  My goal was to become active and strong instead of sedentary and weak.  We’ve largely reached that goal.  Now it’s about going beyond this first goal and I’m confident Matt can pave the way for me.  I’m impressed with Matt’s technical knowledge, but perhaps even more impressive is how he blends this with his common sense.  Well rounded is an understatement for Matt.  He continually impresses me, and pushes me at the same time.  It’s a pleasure to be in the gym with him.”

“Matt Supple of Built to Last Fitness is an excellent trainer.  Even though I have been working out since my teenage years, amassing more than 25 years in the gym, Matt was able to show me different exercises and techniques.  He is very cerebral in him approach, thinking of how best to maximize your workout within your body’s ability.  Matt watches you while you are performing the exercise to ensure you have proper posture and technique.  This not only helps maximize your workout, but also aids in the prevention of injury.  Matt’s plan for your workout is also very well thought out.  He asks questions on your condition and goals for the workout and plans accordingly.  While some trainers will be content on their years of training to get them through their trade, Matt continues to educate himself on various aspects of the trade from exercise workouts to how the body reacts and functions.  I highly recommend Matt Supple for anyone considering a trainer.  You won’t be disappointed.”

“Matt puts the ‘personal’ in trainer. While there are plenty of trainers out there who know their stuff, Matt stood out in his ability to determine exactly what I was looking for and apply his knowledge to a customized set of precise routines. As someone who works in the trades, I found that the routines I was using from previous trainers were no longer working for me; I needed something more that could limber me up before the work day and wind me down at end. Thanks to Matt, I now feel like I have more fuel in my tank, all around–whether I’m on the job or playing in my weekly basketball leagues.”
