meet the TEAM
MATT
Meet Matt, the proud owner and founder of MGF.
With a passion for health and fitness that dates back to his early days, Matt entered the fitness industry right after completing school in 2010. His background in highly competitive rugby league exposed him to the dynamics of team training, inspiring him to create a similar environment of community, inclusivity, and fearlessness within the realm of fitness. And thus, MG Fit was born in 2015.
As a trainer, Matt finds immense joy in the physical transformations he witnesses in people's lives and the mental and emotional growth they experience through improved health. At MGF, it's about more than just exercise and nutrition; it's about cultivating a family-like atmosphere where everyone feels welcomed and supported.
Whether you're new to the gym scene and uncertain where to start or if nervousness has held you back from pursuing your fitness goals, MGF is the perfect place. Here, you'll find a community that embraces individuals of all backgrounds and abilities, providing a safe and encouraging space to thrive. Matt's mission is to empower and uplift everyone who walks through the doors of MGF.
