Personal Training
What is personal training? Motivation, physical prescription, and instruction. A personal trainer will help you with your fitness goals by catering your workouts to YOU. Correcting imbalances, building strength, losing weight, or simply staying in shape, a personal trainer will keep you accountable and on task.
Why do I need it? Personal training isn't for everyone, but if you have trouble staying motivated, don't know how to progress your workouts, or don't know the first thing about physical fitness, a personal trainer can help. With the rise of chronic diseases like obesity, personal trainers know how to get started on the path to a healthy lifestyle.
If you want to put on muscle mass, a trainer can create a workout for you. If you want to lose weight, a trainer can help you. Along with the physical aspect, a trainer can put you in contact with a nutritionist to help create the perfect meal plan for your goals.

Testimonials
I have been working out with Matt Chesley going back to 2019 while I was recovering from a back injury. Recently as Covid restrictions have been loosened I aggravated my back problem once again. In late August 2021 I began working out in person with Matt on campus at the fitness center once again, coming in at 205lbs. In the past two months I have lost 30lbs while beginning to build strength in my back and increase muscle mass. With Matt’s guidance in combination with consistent use of my Peloton bike I’m getting in the best shape of my adult life. Thank you for working with me to make this significant and sustainable improvement which is allowing me to get to a stronger, healthier, better place!
-Michael BerrymanI’ve learned a lot – not just the different kinds of exercises – but that I’m able to do a lot more than what I thought. Every time I said, “I can’t.” followed by many, many expletives – which was a LOT, by the way. Matt always answered, “Yes you can.” And he was always right – and made me prove to myself that he was right...
He introduced me to a new way of working out that I didn’t think I would enjoy. Now I’m looking forward to continuing what we’ve started as I continue on my fitness journey.
-Christine BusqueThank you for giving me the confidence in myself... Because of you I have a healthy life and can work out with knowing what works for me.
-Kim JordanI can't thank you enough for all your guidance over the last year. Last September I was very nervous about working with a trainer, and it turned out to be such a positive experience for me. I'm signing up for a boot camp class through our city's community center and I bought myself some resistance band and an exercise ball. I'm determined to continue exercising at least 3 times a week. Thanks to you, I now have the confidence to exercise and will feel like I know what I'm doing.
-Lynn McLeanMatt is very dedicated, focused and driven by his passion to stay fit and live a life of good health and wellness. He exposes his trainees to a variety of physical fitness exercises that will promote endurance, mental focus and toughness as well as an attitude of “I can do it,” which is the best feeling to experience in the world. He had challenged me to some tough workouts and upon completion I stated that I didn't know I could do that!
-Norma GoodlettI was a little intimidated at first, given that I didn't feel physically fit and didn't want to embarrass myself if I could not perform certain tasks. But it was a legitimate judgment free zone. Matt walk me through each exercise and the proper formation and mechanics of each. He pushed me to my limit and even motivated me to work beyond that. . With his help I was able to get my body toned (to which I received many compliments on my wedding day) and best of all I was able to lose weight in the process. I was not expecting to lose weight but that is major bonus points.
