Client of the Month: Matt
Lean, muscular and brimming with confidence, it’s almost unbelievable how far Matt has come in 15 weeks. Matt has lost an impressive 8kg and shed half of his body fat, dropping to an incredibly low 6.8%.
After undertaking a transformation with U.P. Sydney, he is now in peak physical shape at the age of 43 — barely four months earlier, he was at a low ebb and faced with the prospect he might never fully regain his fitness.
Physically, he was reeling from a serious Achilles tear, which had halted his training and stopped him playing sports. Mentally, the inactivity, the weight gain and the frustration of sitting on the sidelines was taking a heavy toll.
Months went by where he couldn’t train and, consequently, he was feeling pretty low and depressed.
“I was pretty sluggish, pretty soft, not really feeling the best about myself. The main thing was I didn’t feel like myself. I’d always been fairly active. But four months of not doing very much makes big changes to your body. I really didn’t feel that happy with the way I looked.”
