About Me

Hi, I'm Matthew, founder of MC² Fitness.

My fitness journey hasn't been straightforward. Like many people, I've experienced periods where work, life and personal challenges took priority over my health. At my heaviest, I weighed over 20 stone and knew something had to change.

Through a combination of mindset, daily movement and consistency, I transformed my health, losing over 100 lbs and going on to complete events including a numerous Half Marathon, Marathons, Ultra Marathons, Ironman 70.3's, Ironman Barcelona and HYROX competitions. More importantly, I developed habits that created lasting change rather than relying on quick fixes.

Alongside my fitness journey, I have spent over 25 years leading teams and managing high-pressure environments in both the military and in other industries since becoming a service leaver.

 

This experience has taught me the importance of discipline, resilience, accountability and having a clear plan to achieve success.

I created MC² Fitness to help others achieve their own goals in a realistic and sustainable way. Whether you're looking to lose weight, improve your fitness, build confidence, prepare for an event, or simply create healthier habits, my coaching is designed around you and your lifestyle.

My philosophy is simple:

Mindset • Movement • Consistency • Change

Because positive mindset, daily movement and consistency create change.

I know what it's like to start from the beginning, and I'm passionate about helping others realise what they're capable of achieving.

“Positive mindset, daily movement and consistency create change.”

TESTIMONIALS

Matt helped me come back from a serious injury and take part in my first triathlon for years. He has a great knowledge of training, recovery and injury management, and always knew the best way to adapt things so I could keep progressing without overdoing it.

 

What I also really appreciated was his approach to the mental side of the journey. Matt draws on his own experiences of overcoming physical and mental challenges, which gives him a genuine understanding of what people are going through.

 

He’s approachable, encouraging and takes a real interest in the people he works with. You can tell he genuinely enjoys seeing others develop and achieve their goals. I always felt supported and believed in throughout the process.

 

I’d definitely recommend Matt to anyone looking to start their own fitness journey, whether you’re coming back from injury, training for an event, or just looking to improve your health and wellbeing.

Matt has helped me go from struggling to run 5km to completing an ultramarathon - something people dream of!

 

He is the complete trainer: realistic, honest and able to work around your lifestyle while still helping you reach your goals. No attention seeking or false promises, just genuine support, clear guidance and real results.

 

I’m extremely grateful for his help and would highly recommend him.

​Big shout out to Matt for getting me in to running and hyrox based training. Its more than just a work out he helps in every way possible so you understand why and how to do it correctly he has helped me build real confidence in the gym. Thanks for the motivation and the wise words aka pain is only weakness leaving your body....

I've really enjoyed training with Matt.

 

The morning sessions are always varied, engaging and genuinely fun, which makes it so much easier to stay consistent.

 

He brings a great social element to the workouts, creating an atmosphere that's motivating and enjoyable rather than intimidating.

What stands out most is how knowledgeable he is. He takes the time to understand any injuries, niggles or limitations and tailors sessions accordingly, so I always feel challenged but safe.

 

He's incredibly encouraging and knows exactly how to keep you motivated, even on the days when you'd rather stay in bed.

Most importantly, he's made going to the gym feel much less daunting. I always feel comfortable, supported and confident during sessions, which has made a huge difference to my fitness journey.

 

I couldn't recommend him more highly.
