I began working with Matt Jordan when I was at the highest level in the sport of cycling. I was new to speed skating and did not like to lift weights. Matt taught me that I had so much more to learn; so many ways to improve on both my strength and power, and also my mental approach to training. He has shown me over the past six years what it means to be truly professional as an athlete. By working with Matt, my performance has improved not only in the weight room, but also on the ice, where it really counts. Thanks Matt!!!!!!

Matt has really helped me to develop and maximize my potential as a speed skater through innovative, personalized and effective strength and power programs. His focus is on performance and results on the ice so the exercises are always specific to speed skating. I have improved dramatically in transferring my strength and power to the ice and that has shown in my results. He is always up on current research, not just with strength training, but with nutrition and physiology as well. He is also a really great guy, fun to be around and very motivating. He knows when to push me and when to be smart. His expertise, skill, keen eye for technique and friendly demeanor make him one of the best strength trainers around.

I started working with Matt two years before the Torino Olympics and noticed a steady progression in my strength and most importantly a change in the power in my skate skiing. The hours in the weight room were challenging and Matt ensured that the workouts pushed me to the next level as an athlete.
