Matthew Furnell Health & Nutrition

Fantastic experience: Matt is an amazing PT, not only is he phenomenal at his job but also approachable and kind. He turned me from a lazy couch potato into a lean mean health machine. My primary goal when Matt took me on as a client was to just lose weight, but he's transformed not only my body/weight but also my mentality towards food and exercise and also the confidence in myself. He tailored specific exercises and diet to my needs and monitored this constantly and gave me moral support to keep going. He turned gym sessions into a fun thing to do rather then a chore as I used to see it. I can't recommend him enough to everyone. Keep up the great work Matt!

Fantastic experience: I was looking to get fit and incorporate exercise into my daily routine. Having never worked out before, I was unsure of nutrition and exercise. I have been consulting with Matt, and under his guidance I am already seeing great results in a very short period of time. Matt tailored a plan suited to my needs which is very easy to follow and working well for me. I am seeing my body transform and could not be more pleased with my progress. Matt is an excellent coach and I highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: Matt really knows his stuff, his approach is flexible and I felt listened to in relation to my goals. I have been working with Matt for the past 4 months and following his advice I am close to achieving my personal goals. Matt was able to provide me with a program that I can continue to use independently. Matt is the most knowledgeable and committed PT I have ever worked with and has consistently demonstrated a passion to help me achieve my potential, 5/5 .

Fantastic experience: In the last 20 months I have lost 6 stones that I never intended to lose, have reversed the pre diabetic diagnosis to normal levers, Thankyou. And today he made me bench press 30kg, despite my age, good value for money.

Fantastic experience: I have had several sessions with Matt for nutrition coaching and would highly recommend him. He is very knowledgeable but what I really liked about him was that he listened to what I was trying to achieve and my personal preferences and was able to offer solutions and advice tailored to my needs. With Matt’s help I achieved my goal and importantly have increased my own knowledge. Matt is friendly, approachable and highly professional, and knows his stuff! I would definitely use his services again.

Fantastic experience: I started with Matt late last year and have noticed a difference already in my body shape. Sessions are challenging but enjoyable and feel very catered to my personal needs. I have issues with balance and co-ordination but through my work with Matt my stability seems to be improving greatly. Matt has adapted sessions well to be on video too and I now feel much more confident working out at home. His friendly and personal approach make me feel more at ease in sessions too and I enjoy chatting with him between reps. I would recommend him to anyone whatever your goals and needs!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Matt since early in 2021 and it’s been a genuine pleasure. Having trained with a few personal trainers in the past, some good, some bad, I was a little unsure about finding another. However, since the very first consultation, Matt has been brilliant. He took time to understand my goals, and has given me clear guidance and motivation throughout. The training sessions are well structured, and even during lockdown I feel I’ve been making real progress and achieving new goals each week. And above all Matt is a great guy - training sessions are fun, and always good to catch up...even if he is pushing you to train harder or lift heavier! A fantastic personal trainer, and I really couldn’t recommend more!

Fantastic experience: I have had several PT’s and Matt is the best by far. He is genuinely interested in your progress. Professional, knowledgeable and an all round good guy.

Fantastic experience: Have trained with both Matt and Ruben and I really enjoyed their sessions. Both of them varied their sessions, made it fun and also hard work! I would definitely recommend Matthew Furnell Health & Nutrition!

Fantastic experience: My partner and I went to the induction of a few personal trainers in the area, but everything just clicked with Matt. He knows how to keep me motivated with all the different trainings and is such a positive influence. I’m making good progress and look forward to the new me :)

Fantastic experience: Can't recommend Matt enough. I love the training sessions - each one is slightly different and all are fun and challenging. Am feeling fitter already and Matt helps me stay motivated with positive encouragement and feedback. Great communication as well, and very adaptive approach. Thanks Matt, am looking forward to the next session! :D

Fantastic experience: My partner James and I both started with Matt back in August and have both seen great results already! Matt is motivational, positive and always makes sure every session caters to both myself (sporty, more experienced at working out) and my partner (not very active, inexperienced). He is knowledgeable and also great at adapting to the complex situation of the last couple of months (temperature check, masks / gloves provided, online sessions, etc.). Would completely recommend him to anyone looking to make a positive change to their health and their life :)

Fantastic experience: I started training with Matt whilst in lockdown - despite only ever doing online sessions I’ve made more muscle progress in 10 weeks than ever before. The workouts have given me more energy during the week and Matt is great at checking in and varying the exercises so that it’s never repetitive. The additional nutrition sessions we had gave me much better knowledge for a novice like me and Matt has been great at amending the workouts to fit my goals. Can’t wait till lockdown is over so I can finally come to the studio - I highly recommend these guys :)

Fantastic experience: Matt is genuinely attentive and knowledgeable. Together, we created a plan that worked for me and helped me achieve my goals; there was no "one size fits all" approach whatsoever. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: Seen some great results in my time at the studio. I would always recommend them to anyone. I have had sessions with Ruben, who listen to your needs and goals and make every session different to keeps it interesting.

Fantastic experience: I have worked closely with Matt for just under a year.He has been a great source of inspiration to me.He has listened carefully to my goals and we are on the way to achieving them.He knows exactly how to pace your progression to fitness. I feel better in both my work and leisure and cannot rate his services highly enough.

Fantastic experience: Best personal trainer you could ever ask for!

Fantastic experience: Training with Ruben over the past few months has been great for my confidence. I know exactly what to do in the gym that will work for me, and feel so much more confident when I'm working out alone. We worked on achieving long-term goals, and it's amazing how much my lifestyle has changed for the better.

Fantastic experience: When I contacted Matt and Ruben, I was looking to improve my energy levels and to tone up areas that had been stubbornly refusing to change. I already exercised regularly and had, what I thought, was a fairly healthy diet. I have been training with Ruben for the last 8 weeks and it has been fantastic. He listened carefully to my goals and has really helped me to achieve them. He used his expert knowledge to make each session varied and fun, and to target the right areas. I genuinely noticed the difference in my body within 4 weeks and am over the moon with the results. My nutrition consultation with Matt gave me an amazing insight into my diet and how to make positive changes. I am not exaggerating when I say that within a week, my energy levels noticeably improved. I no longer felt the need to go to bed before 9pm! Thank you so much!

Fantastic experience: I’ve just had fantastic one -to -one training session with Matt. I’m not a gym goer so I was a little apprehensive, but as soon as I got to the studio I felt instantly at ease. Matt really listens to your goals and talks through the exercises clearly whilst giving nutritional advice. I felt the pace was just right for me. You can see Matt’s enthusiasm for what he does in what he does! Thanks Matt, looking forward to next week.

Fantastic experience: Whilst working with Ruben he has helped me develop an in depth knowledge in how to get the best out of my training. He has allowed me to see results I've been chasing for a while and understand how I've got them. Couldn't recommend more!!

Fantastic experience: I would highly recommend Matt, he has helped me to build up muscle and confidence gradually. He also understands fully if you have any set backs with health, each time helping you to get back to where you were. I've learnt so much about nutrition and exercise, he is very knowledgeable and always there if you need advice. Very friendly and motivates you all the way!

Fantastic experience: I always look forward to my sessions with Matt. He is a great guy, funny, welcoming and knows exactly how to tailor the session to what I need. Absolutely would recommend Matt Furnell!

Fantastic experience: “Matt has been instrumental in ensuring that we reached all of our health and fitness goals in 2018. We could not have done it without him! We would strongly recommend Matt to other local firms”. From: All the staff at Hanlon Kneller and Associates LLP.

Fantastic experience: Helped me with some very valuable advice about my nutritional needs.

Fantastic experience: I have been having sessions with Matt since the summer and in a fairly short period of time, I have been able to make great progress. Matt is extremely knowledgeable and creates a fun environment during his sessions. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a great PT in the local area.

Fantastic experience: Absolutely brilliant, have seen such great results and continual support throughout my fitness and nutritional journey, would highly recommend :)

Fantastic experience: Having the chance to develop my boxing dexterities and discover my physical and mental abilities with Matthew has been totally life-changing! Thank you for all you have done and continue to do. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Love our weekly PT sessions with Matt. A friend and I have been attending joint PT sessions for just over 4 months now and can’t believe how much stronger we are getting already. Matt is positive and upbeat and makes every session fun. I’m also very appreciative of Matt’s attention to detail, making sure my technique when lifting weights is 100% correct. I’m currently receiving physio for my back and Matt will tailor the exercises to ensure I can get the most out of each session, whilst protecting my back. ‍♀️

Fantastic experience: I have got Cerebral Palsy and I've been though a few PT's because they didn't understand my disability. But Matt does understand my disability, and in a couple months of going to Matt my legs and arms are much stronger! Keep the good work up Matt

Fantastic experience: Matthew works with my friend who has cerebral palsy, and I attend the sessions to assist with getting him in and out of the wheelchair. During the sessions matthew is attentive and adpats his work to my friends specific physical needs. As a result I have seen him gain more strength and control with his muscle movements. Highly reccomended.

Fantastic experience: Thanks to Matt I am achieving my goals of getting fitter and stronger and losing weight! We are worked hard and encouraged all the way! Thanks Matt!

Fantastic experience: Matt has been a fantastic help to me as i endevour to lose weight and improve my fitness. He has taken all my worries away about approaching a new diet and is attentive in my fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Sharon for over a year and have been progressively losing weight. I have also reduced my blood pressure & diabetic medication. Very happy with the support in reaching my goals :)

Fantastic experience: I really look forward to my training with Matt each week. He's not only a great personal trainer, but knows so much about nutrition too. I've been going to Matt for 6 months now, and can feel such a difference in my health and fitness. Would highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I am training for the Berlin marathon and, as well as running, I ride for Deliveroo five nights a week and go to the gym. My body has never felt so much exercise and I habitually under-eat. Consequently I was like a zombie all week, barely able to function in the mornings. Matt explained how my body was reacting to its new regime, got me calorie counting and told me which foods to focus on. Armed with this knowledge and a way to measure my calorie intake I have given my body the fuel it needs and after a period of adjustment (which Matt predicted) I no longer bathe in sluggish moods: I am alert again and have more energy. Matt is currently helping me build a training plan for next year's marathon and without his input I think I would have given up for fear of never having any energy again. Thanks Matt!!

Fantastic experience: Cannot recommend Matt highly enough! Since training with Matt i have been able to complete obsticle races & push myself to the limit which is something i could never of done on my own. Matt takes a really personal approach & goes that exta mile for his clients. His knowledge of nutrition is fantastic so he can help create a new healthy, fit, strong you.

Fantastic experience: I have had a years break from training due to ill health. I was very down that all the hard work I had done over the years had been lost. I have just completed a months course with Sharon. She is very motivating and I am very pleased with the progress I am already making. You have the gym to yourself with one to one training which is excellent. Highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: We have a mother and daughter session. It's a great way to spend some time together and Matt makes each session great fun. These sessions are also improving my daughter's scoliosis. Now even my husband has started with Matt and he has become a completely different man. It's as if Matt has a magic wand :) AMAZING !!!

Fantastic experience: My name is Alex, I’m a type one diabetic and aspiring bodybuilder. I came to Matt a bit of a sceptic if I’m perfectly honest; after years of failed diabetic care from the NHS I was beginning to think no one could help. Before I came to Matt I was having 4-5 hypoglycemic attacks a week. This soon changed after meeting Matt. He educated me on good nutrition to help with my diabetes as well as training tips both of which impacted my bodybuilding training and health in a massively positive way. However, the biggest change has been the lack of hypoglycemic attacks I’m having; I went almost 8 weeks without having an attack. I’m absolutely delighted with the results and just wished I had met Matt sooner.

Fantastic experience: Would recommend to anyone , so glad I got involved , really has given me a new outlook on the importance of feeling healthy

Fantastic experience: I have had advice from Matt over the last 2 year's and I can say this guy helps keep me motivated and on the right track. The workouts and meals Matt has given me have left me bursting with energy and given me a great sense of well being. Using Matt will be the best move you make.

Fantastic experience: Matt has really helped me over the last year, I have seen results that I have been struggling to achieve for years.. I would recommend his services to anyone - whether you are looking for weight loss, increased strength & fitness levels or just an all round healthy lifestyle change, Matt's passion and commitment to his training and nutrition programs is constantly helping me to achieve this, and I am so grateful to finally see noticeable results! :) It is so nice to work with someone so patient and knowledgeable, who really cares about you achieving your goals. I cannot thank you enough! :)

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Matthew gor a year now and the health benefits have been endless. I have been a Type 2 Diabetic for over 8 years, dependent on medication to control my blood sugars. After following Matthew's nutritional and Personal Training i find my self in a much better place both mentally and physically and after just one year have already reducedy Diabeties Medication. I have also lost a considerable amount of weight. This has been and continues to be a life changing experience for me.

Fantastic experience: I started training again 6 months ago after a five year gap. Matt has been inspirational in getting me back into good habits, both in the gym and the dietary intake, the results have been hugely beneficial. The boxing routines I particularly enjoy, Matt's past experience in this sector is very reassuring when hitting the pads. Whilst I didn't carry a lot of excess body weight, the strength training has resulted in better muscle definition, plus a couple of notches off the belt! As a trainer Matt is punctual, very supportive and encouraging, plus a pleasure to work out with!

Fantastic experience: I cannot rate Matthew Furnell Heath & Nutrition highly enough. Over a period of 12 months I lost a total of 5 and a 1/2 stone, and I've managed to keep it off since. The sessions I had were always fun and the support I received was unparalleled. I was completely re-educated in nutrition and diet, which has enabled me to make life long changes. Matthew's approach is friendly, caring, knowledgeable, sincere and always approachable. I will forever be thankful for what Matthew Furnell has done for me.

Fantastic experience: Matt has helped me to become the fit person that I never thought I'd be (I was the kid with all the "sick" notes on Sports Day!). So grateful for his help, advice and wonderful knowledge - I discovered a love for boxing and became fit enough to complete Tough Mudder. He also helped me to reduce my blood sugar levels through my diet which has always been a big concern for me with diabetes being in my family! Thanks a million, Matt! 100% recommendable (and I have! He's currently helping my mum to reverse stages of her diabetes via his Skype Sessions!).

Fantastic experience: Matt has been a huge help in improving my overall health & fitness, and I have recommended him to friends/family too!

Fantastic experience: Working with Matthew has helped me bring my blood sugar levels back under control. This resulted in my dr. confirming I was no longer at risk of diabetes. For me, and my family this was such a relief! I've also learned how to apply daily principles to boost my health and have an exercise routine I follow just three times per week. As a man of 58, many of my friends are experiencing health-related worries, and I used to. I feel much more confident that I'm in control of my health and am training for a marathon later in the year. I'd thoroughly recommend Matthew's training to anyone of a similar age, who would like to boost their quality of life, fitness, physique and lower the risk of certain nasty diseases.
