BodyRush Fitness

"I am 76 years old and have always been in reasonably good shape. That is until last summer when a disease caused me to lose a great deal of weight in a very short period of time. With it went a lot of strength, muscle, and a sense of coordination. It felt like instant aging. Nothing I tried helped me recover. Fortunately I found BodyRush Fitness. Matt designed and guided me through fitness and exercise program that has worked wonders in a few months. The training sessions were enjoyable and challenging, and left me feeling invigorated. I’ve regained much of that lost strength, and I think I’m on the road to maintaining physical wellbeing in the future. Because I was a snowbird in Florida for the winter, Matt went the extra mile by finding a suitable personal trainer in my home town and sharing with him the record of the training sessions. Matt, thank you!! I would not have made this recovery and progress without your help! I look forward to working with you again next winter. Mike West Des Moines, IA"

"Though this isn’t my normal account I’m giving my review with this one. I’ve been with Matt even before he made this his business and the amount of growth he has had during that time is amazing. He always makes it fun to workout while giving useful advice whenever I’m doing weights or even if I plan to work outside the gym. Matt puts his all into making a workout customized for each person and tries to make sure they are comfortable. So even at times where I’ve not been for a while due to personal reasons he helps me get back into shape or reteach me skills with no judgements There is no trainer I’d rather have during my times working than him. Even if that means he’ll make me have to do more weighted lunges."

"I have been seeing Matt at BodyRush Fitness for many years now. His studio is very well equipped and kept exceptionally clean. I really like how he keeps the sessions varied and will taylor a program just for you. He pushes just enough to keep me motivated. His anatomical knowledge is good so he knows how to work on specific areas. I highly recommend him."

"Matt is a great trainer. He is very conscious of a person's limitation and pain and works around them. He also listens and makes great suggestions on things to help his customers live more actively and eat better. I have been using Matt as my personal trainer for over 5 years. He has done a great job helping me get my strength back. He is also a very nice person."

"There were three things my wife and I were looking for in a personal trainer: Efficiency, Safety, Attention to detail. Matt is really excellent in all three of these areas, and you also get a really intense, goal-oriented workout master as a bonus! Efficiency: Matt is punctual, organized, and prepared for every single workout, every single time. He tracks our improvements, monitors our progress (and lapses!) and is constantly urging us to put in our utmost in during every session. Safety: Form, form, form! No haranguing into unnecessary and counterproductive too-fast reps or too much weight or improper posture. The facility is spotless. The atmosphere is businesslike and focused. Attention to detail: Matt religiously follows up on things he picks up on from workout to workout. My wife and I work out together, and he tailors each exercise to meet our individual needs, and then carefully monitors our execution and progress. His enthusiasm and excellent. Bonus: Matt is very easy to interact with, fun, and in amazing shape himself. Additional bonus: Rates are very competitive. Access to the facility is very convenient. My wife and I cannot recommend Body Rush enough. If you are serious about getting in shape, see Matt at Body Rush. UPDATE: Weight loss and strength gains! 'Been working out for over a year now under Matt's direction. He keeps coming up with new ways to push us, getting us to up our game, setting new goals, all the while calmly and carefully monitoring our form, preventing injury and -- get this -- just being a great guy to hang out with for a couple hours a week! My wife takes full advantage of the assisted stretching as part of her cool-down, and we highly recommend it. If you'd like to get in the best shape of your life through a multi-faceted, thoughtful, and never-boring approach without all the hoopla of a cross-fit yelling fest, set something up with Matt. We've worked out at a bunch of places before, and Body Rush is among the best."
