Rooted Barbell Club

I have been working with Matt Stasuk for personal training for the past year. I came to him as a beginner and my progress under his direction has been incredible. I‘m 46 years old and in the best shape of my life.

I have realized that there is a science and an art to designing and progressing workout programs. Matt possesses PhD level knowledge of all the nuances of how muscles function, grow, and get stronger. He updates my program each week based on how I did last week, and knows exactly how to change the exercises, weights, and rep ranges in the optimal way to ensure I’m always progressing towards my goals.

I took a break from working with Matt over last summer and did some programs from the internet and my own thing at the gym. My progress halted, my form suffered, and I developed some aches and pains. Now that I’ve been back working with him for the past two months it is super clear to me what a difference his programming makes. I've increased my bench press by 10kg already, all my lifts are up, and aches and pains in my shoulder, lower back, and elbow have disappeared. He is thoughtful and careful to make sure you’re strengthening the supporting muscles as well so that you don’t get injured.

The benefits to all areas of my life are significant. I feel great, I look the best I ever have, and I generally function much better both physically and cognitively. I have more energy, I’m super productive and focused at work, and I’m just overall a much more balanced and happy human being.

On top of his smarts and talents as a trainer, he’s also one of the nicest and friendliest guys you’ll meet.

Thank you, Matt, for all that you’ve done for me. I feel lucky to be able to work with you and look forward to many more years training with you.

Wonderful coaches that have both the experience and technical knowledge to help you achieve your goals! Also, as a person who is fairly new to weightlifting, it was a very warm and welcoming environment. All skills levels are welcome, making it a great place to learn and grow your love of the sport!
