Training history
2 years at Outlier Strength
No prior training experience. Matt came to Outlier Strength with no weightlifting experience and very little actual training experience of any form.
Strengths
Expert level at all 6 Hardstyle kettlebell lifts.
A deep understanding of these lifts.
Good at listening and mimicing when I show him new technique.
Consistency in training and diet.
Positive attitude and good training energy every time.
Diet
Paleo + starch. Very little junk food, very moderate alcohol consumption.
Weaknesses
Very few! Sometimes he steps out of fighter-mode during a hard set and starts talking.
Could be argued that he could rest more on the weekends for better recovery but you can not stop students from having a fun life.
Current training routine
3 days a week
Monday - chinups, bottoms up work, mace practice, squat work
Weds - Snatches, cleans, swings
Friday bench press, chinups, mace practice, squat work
Goals when starting at Outlier
Matt started training at Outlier to gain a little bit of muscle and improve overall health. We were both surprised that once he started eating enough he grew like a teenager. Matt has gained over 25 lbs of muscle the past 2 years w/o exaggeration.
Current goals
Matt is at his ideal body composition atm. I am training Matt like I would any leading-man actor. This means he is in shape all year round and can manipulate his bodyweight higher or lower if necessary for an acting role.
