About MP Strength

Meet Matt
My interest in strength training started with a high school Exercise Science elective. What began as curiosity quickly turned into a career path. I studied Kinesiology & Health Science at York University, where I built the foundation for everything I do today.
After graduating, I earned my CSCS through the NSCA and my CSEP-CPT certification. Over the past 10+ years in the industry, I've worked with a wide range of clients — from people who had never touched a barbell to competitive athletes looking to take their performance to the next level.
I opened MP Strength & Conditioning as a private training studio in Guelph, Ontario because I wanted to create an environment where training is taken seriously. No distractions, no generic programming, no fluff. Every session is structured, every program has a clear progression, and every client gets the attention their training deserves.
My approach is rooted in evidence-based training principles. I specialize in strength training, movement quality, and long-term physical development. The goal isn't just to make you stronger for the next few months — it's to build a foundation that carries you through decades.
