About Us
Hi, I'm Matt and I've been a personal trainer since 2013. My love of golf has led me to focus primarily on golf fitness, helping golfers improve their game by identifying their roadblocks and implementing plans to improve their performance on the course.
As a keen golfer myself, I know the importance of fitness for peak performance on the course. With customised programs and support, I help golfers of all levels achieve their golfing goals. Let's work together to take your game to the next level.
Stability in the golf swing is the ability to maintain posture while producing force. This can also be referred to as balance in most cases.
In order to perform the golf swing in the correct manner, you first need the range of movement to allow this.

Strength can be defined as the ability to exert force in order to overcome resistance. In this case the resistance being the golf club.
Velocity is defined as the rate of speed in a specific direction. How far we hit the golf ball is directly linked with the speed of the club head at impact.
Incorporating Fairway Fitness into my routine at the Golf Club has been a game-changer for both my golf game and my overall understanding of my body. Despite playing at a high level for years, I’m continually discovering how intricately my body mechanics influence every swing. It's crucial for every golfer to address their unique physical challenges, and Matt excels at tailoring his approach to each individual. His expertise has been invaluable to my progress. Highly recommend!
I'm a 70+ yrs woman golfer who has been working with Matt at Fairway Fitness on strength, balance and flexibility. The improvement in my fitness has been immense thanks to the age specific programmes Matt sets for me and hopefully this will keep me playing golf for many more years. He's a great guy and is good at what he does. I highly recommend him.
I have been golfing now for just on 3 years and during this time I have experienced consistent back pain.
I decided to discuss this with Matt and to see if we could put a plan in place that would enable me to play pain free. Being a competitive person, I was also hoping that a by product of this was a potential improvement in my game.
From our first meeting, I found Matt to be empathetic to my needs . His knowledge and understanding of how to design and implement a programme to suit my needs was impressive and very much appreciated..
Through Matt's strength and conditioning work, I have found that my core strength and range of motion is better than ever. This has allowed me to play pain free and I have no doubt that I am now enjoying my golf again.
When I started with Matt 5 months ago, I was very lost in my fitness and golf journey. From being a player who used to train every day and perform to a high level, Matt has supported and given me the tools to find that person again. I have been recovering from one on going injury in my back and one recent injury in my knee, I didn’t know when I was going to be able to play 18 holes again and pain free. I can now happily say I am able to play 18 holes pain free thanks to Matts training and programming. He has supported me in all aspects of the gym; mentally and physically. I did my first TPI screen when I started, and I was a 22 handicap. 5 months later I did my second TPI screen and I am now a +3 handicap. It has been an amazing journey and has played a huge part in my mental health. Matt is an amazing trainer who is very intuitive with each clients needs. I can’t wait to get back to competitive golf knowing my body is getting stronger and knowing we are working on my weaknesses that relate to how I swing a golf club.
