I had a great time training with Matthew. He is clearly very passionate and knowledgeable, and put in a load of time and effort to ensure he was providing a bespoke service, tailor-made to my specific goals and needs. Would definitely recommend!

Matthew explained each exercise in great detail and it is clear he is an expert in this area. I felt at ease and supported during the training session. He suggested exercises that I can put into practice to build up strength and also the importance of stretching. Matthew is a great trainer.
Stav
So grateful for meeting Matthew and training with him. He’s experienced, kind and super supportive. Challenging me to push my limits in line with my goals.
Matthew also advised me on exercises to concentrate on outside of training sessions to help condition my arms against shaking during bench press etc. Top lad

I did a session with Matt. I wanted to know the pull-ups. He was well clear when explaining the forms. He didn't rush at all. Apart from that, having seen him training other clients, I can say Matt is very approachable, gentle yet firm in his trainings. He isn't bossy or over pushy. In overall, as a female client, I felt comfortable and will certainly recommend his PT services.

Matthew is a very talented personal trainer with a strong passion for fitness. Despite being young, his knowledge and wisdom is very helpful in understanding techniques and how to achieve your goals. His enthusiasm is very contagious! He has helped me become confident in my ability and in my vision for my workouts. He makes you feel comfortable but also pushes you to your limits. Top lad!

Matthew is a really fun, approachable and friendly guy. He's given me new movements to incorporate into my workouts and some research based information which has helped me become more efficient in my time at the gym. And he's funny!
Manreeve
Matthew is a really good trainer, I had a great session with him focusing on upper body and he keeps on giving me advices and recommendations, even after the session. I would definitely recommend him!
Arthur
Matthew is an outstanding personal trainer. Knowledgeable, friendly and with passion for his work and a true interest in helping you achieve your training goals. In my case he was able to pinpoint my weak spots and tailored an approach that works wonders for my very particular and specific needs of balancing strength with a full range of mobility.
Beyond his technical knowledge and expertise though, what I feel sets him apart is his ability to infuse enthusiasm and inspiration, motivating me towards work I have avoided for years.
A great addition to the Clissold team, I very highly recommend him.

Honestly an incredible PT. Matthew really knows how to meet your needs and was really able to motivate me to move into the right direction. After meeting him I was driven to attend one of his classes where he pushed me do better than I thought I could. 10/10 great guy. Will be back to do more work. Thank you!

Very useful session indeed. Matthew took me through what I needed to do to make my training more effective and so better reach my goals. He was very knowledgeable about what exercises I could be prioritising, explained in-depth why they work and showed me the right form to make sure I am doing them safely. He also explained to me various modifications that I could use as I build up strength. He was very encouraging and empathetic throughout.

Matthew is a fantastic trainer who creates very fun tailored sessions, that are also challenging but rewarding. I wanted to become faster and more powerful and with Matthew's experience in American football. He was able to incorporate exercises and mobility drills that helped me achieve these goals and help me improve my performance in football.
