Success Stories

Here are just a few of the many extremely satisfied people that are working with us and achieving their goals.

Look what Philly's own Q102 Radio Star Diego has to say about Real Fitness Results!

"I hired Matt Shuebrook as my Physical Trainer last year and am very pleased with the work we have done together. Initially, I asked Matt to set up a training plan for me that would be realistic, achievable, and tailored to meet my needs when work took me on the road. Matt was particularly attentive to my needs to minimize expense, avoiding the need for gym equipment. I appreciated the fact that Matt’s coaching style was not to be overbearing or a slave driver. Instead, he was encouraging and motivated me to achieve my goals. He worked with me on a diet that would meet my needs and was always complimentary about my progress. The results of our work have been very rewarding. I’ve lost 20 pounds in 60 days and 2 inches off my waist".......

"Following a total knee replacement, I underwent standard rehabilitation therapy at a local rehab facility. After several weeks of therapy, I felt that I had received all the benefits that were capable of giving, and I transferred my physical training to Matt Shuebrook of Real Fitness Results at our JCC facility. Matt took the responsibility very seriously. To my surprise and pleasure, he took the time (with my permission) to visit the rehab facility and interview my former trainer to obtain detailed information on my case and progress. Matt's program is well thought out, organized, and specific to the individual. I look forward to receiving additional benefits from his guidance."

"I have been a client of Matt Shuebrook for three months. Since working with Matt, I have seen a significant improvement in my health. Matt not only instructs you on exercise techniques, he also focuses on the whole body; nutrition, lifestyle etc. He is very thorough in his analysis of your body structure and even asks you about any pains, discomfort etc. He then designs a program that you can do at the gym as well as at home. I have been a member of other fitness clubs, and none of them can match Matt's instruction. It's amazing that you don't have to spend thousands of dollars on fitness equipment and you can use simple household items to work out with. I learned that from Matt. Another thing I'd like to point out is a foot cramping problem I have had all my life. I have worn orthotics, Dr. Scholl inserts, but still had the same problem. I even went to a podiatrist and he told me that I would have to get custom made orthotics that would cost over $500.00. Matt showed me a few simple exercises that I could do to strengthen the muscles around my feet. I have seen a significant improvement and it's great! I am very pleased with Matt's instruction, his encouragement and his professionalism. He definitely gives you the inspiration to reach your fitness goals and plays some awesome music while you're working out. I would recommend him to anyone and I will continue to be a client of Matt's for a long time."

"I have been a client of Matt’s for the last 3 months. I am 45 years old, have never worked with a personal trainer, and have never been particularly capable athletically. In the three months I have been Matt’s client, I have seen him study the issues that are unique to my situation and focus on what to train and what areas needed a more cautionary approach due to previous injury. Matt approached each aspect of my training both scientifically and medically, in the sense that he studied my physique, determined the best way to train me, taught me to compensate around injured areas by performing specialized training exercises. Thereafter, Matt placed me in a course of intensive regular training in order to achieve my goals. Matt also counseled me on moderate weight reduction, diet and lifestyle changes.

I have since transformed from a more sedentary lifestyle to an active one dedicated to physical development and cardiac exercise. As a result, I have become a much more natural athlete, with significantly increased stamina and physical capability. Due to my now-increased ability, I enjoy playing sports that were never a part of my life, such as basketball, tennis, swimming, rock climbing and others. My clothes fit better, I feel better, and I can do so much more than before. I have become dedicated to maintaining and improving upon my accomplishments three time each week at the gym, whether during a session with Matt, or when on my own. In short, having achieved such significant results, the results are something I do not intend to give up and I do not at all find it a chore to maintain and improve upon these results. In fact, going to the gym has become one of the parts of my day I look forward to most.

This would not have been possible without Matt’s coaching, knowledge as a trainer and willingness to design a program suited completely to my needs and time constraints. As we have progressed, Matt has designed a program that I can utilize with or without his direct supervision. I find I can utilize this program on my own at my local gym, or when out of town. Over time, we will continue to consult on as regular a basis as needed, with suitable modifications to the program as my training needs continue to evolve. I can strongly recommend Matt to anyone interested in physical development, at any level or at any age. I am confident that Matt will take the same methodical approach that he took with me, and will be able to help those with the desire to help themselves."

"My wife and I (both in our 50s) have been working out with Matt for several months. When Matt first suggested that he could work with both of us simultaneously, I was a bit skeptical. I wondered whether he would be able to provide each of us with the personal guidance and attention we needed as well as tailor the training session to match our individual fitness levels. To my surprise, the joint sessions have been a huge success and fun for both of us. Matt is skilled at planning our sessions so that for some exercises my wife and I work together and provide resistance for the other. Other exercises are done in tandem and Matt adapts them to meet our individual capabilities. Every session Matt manages to push us to our limit and then some, but always with our safety in mind. What I enjoy most about working with Matt is his versatility; no two sessions are ever the same. Whether we train indoors in our home gym, or outside during nice weather where Matt really shows off his creativity, each session is well planned and fresh, and the end result is always a satisfyingly full body work out."

"Matt did a great job getting me toned for my wedding and honeymoon. He showed me lots of new exercises to get my body in the best shape I've been in since high school!"

"I e-mailed Matt through Real fitness web site, he called, we met, we started working out June 12. Ten weeks later I am 37 lbs lighter and very happy."

Janet Curtis - Broomall, PA

"Matt Shuebrook is truly a wonder. In his low-key but methodical and disciplined manner, he has brought out the best in me as an athlete. He listens to his clients, their needs and objectives, and then he DELIVERS. Matt has an outstanding knowledge of human anatomy and exercise physiology, and he knows how to apply his knowledge to his clients. Moreover, Matt is concerned with the WHOLE person, not just with a set of abs or pecs. He is, quite frankly, the best trainer I know. I promise you will not be disappointed with Matt in your corner."
