Transforming Strength

I love working out, it is the best way to start my day. Matt makes each workout challenging and different. He places a high value on correct form with each exercise. He motivates me to push past my perceived limits to get results. At 54 I am comfortable when he pushes me to achieve my goals. Matt is always professional: his knowledge, attention to detail, and his ability to develop my weak areas are appreciated. I have worked out with Matt for several years and have not done the same work out once. His workouts have given my body more definition than I have ever had and I feel so much better about myself. I continue to work out with Matt because when I do, I know I am in good hands with a total professional." I have a long way to go and some major goals to hit in 2023 and look forward to the coaching I will receive from Matt. If you are serious about getting into shape, I highly suggest you try Transforming Strength.

I'm thankful to be a part of Transforming Strength. I love the structure of the class, the safety involved- because of the knowledge Matt has- and the fact that any level of fitness can walk in, get the right level of guidance and make strides towards personal goals. There's no expectations that you keep up with the guy next to you or the coach. I'm not a fan of commercial gyms- I like knowing that when I walk out of those doors I got a good workout in...every time. I trust Matt and his experience in strength training, nutrition and have also had his help on training successfully for a half marathon.

I started working out with Matt because I wasn't seeing progress in the workouts I was doing on my own. Workouts with Matt are challenging, but inspiring. He encourages me to lift weights in a way that communicates that he believes in me; and every time, he's right. His faith in my ability to lift weights I never thought that I could, causes me to feel accomplished and proud of myself; and at 5am, that's a great start to the day. Matt combines strength training with a knowledge of how to make the workouts safe. I went from having back spasms and SI pain (due to lack of strength, balance, and previous injuries) to no issues. If something doesn't "feel" right, Matt makes quick adjustments to ensure that I get the most from the workout, without any injuries. He is meticulously observant during the workout to make sure that my form is effective, and he will make small adjustments. I have made progress in so many areas since starting workouts with Matt. I can squat and do single leg RDL's with 50 pound dumbbells in each hand. Each workout is different in never the same. Matt's training has transformed me into a stronger, healthier, more confident version of myself

Being a client of Matt Hartsky's for a few years, I have experienced both personal training and small group training. No matter the setting, Matt has always focused on safety, technique and my personal goals. Through his nutrition counseling and mentoring, I have not only lost weight but gained healthy eating habits. Resulting in a healthier me. 3 years of workouts and I am still excited every time I get onto the gym floor. I know I have the right coach pushing me to be my best.

My life has transformed in so many ways since starting workouts with Matt! My strength has improved and I have built muscle at age 62. I am able to be out and around in the winter without fear of falling now. Gaining the strength has helped me to build confidence and determination I never really experienced before. I feel so much more confident about remaining mobile as I move into the next phase of life.
