“I have worked alongside Matt for a couple of years now, and all I can say is that Matt is an awesome person and one of the most caring and educated coaches I have ever worked with. Matt is highly professional, has excellent customer service skills, and leads by example. It’s my pleasure to call him my friend and colleague.”

“Hit some huge lifetime PR’s this week. 540 Deadlift (35lb Lifetime PR) 480 Squat (35lb Lifetime PR) 375 Bench (25lb Lifetime PR). Huge shoutout to Matt Falk of Falk Strength & Conditioning for some of the best programming and coaching I have ever seen. Last year, I herniated two discs in a freak Marine Corps training accident and was unable to train for the majority of that year. Like many others I have always programmed for myself, but even before the injury, I wasn’t gaining as much strength as I thought I should be. I contacted Matt 12 weeks ago with some pretty weak numbers and very discouraged about the length of time I thought it would take to get back to where I was, pre-injury. Well, as you can see from the numbers, Matt’s unconventional programming and awesome coaching have resulted in me crushing every lifetime PR that I have ever set, in just 12 weeks! Even better than the actual programming itself is that Matt actually cares about my goals, my goals have become his goals. Whether it is a call, email, text message, or analyzing my YouTube videos, Matt is always available and eager to help or just to celebrate another PR. It’s truly been a pleasure working with him and I know that I will continue to progress in lifting as long as I just stick to the plan. Thanks for all of your help and advice, brother.”
