Matt Roberts

The UK's hottest personal trainer - sales of Matt's books have topped 150,000 copies!

The Independent on Sunday 25 January 04 Issue
"...there is no denying that Roberts, personal trainer to the stars, knows his stuff when it comes to fitness."

Personal history
Matt Roberts started his career in fitness as an international sprinter. During his early twenties, he travelled between London and the United States, studying with various sports councils and academies.

In 1994, he opened Matt Roberts Personal Training in London's Mayfair, the first personal training centre in the UK. Its success was followed by another two state-of-the-art London gyms: Matt Roberts at One in the exclusive One Aldwych hotel, and a health club in the Kensington Royal Garden Hotel. Today, the Roberts' magic continues at his London gym in fashionable Jermyn Street, at his spa in the five-star Le St Geran hotel on Mauritius, and - most recently - at his newly opened world-class gym at the grand resort hotel, Le Tousserok, also on Mauritius. (Another gym is planned for Dubai later in 2003). Matt's celebrity client list includes Naomi Campbell, Natalie Imbruglia, Sandra Bullock, Mel C, Sting and Trudie Styler, Faye Dunaway, Charles Worthington, Gucci's Tom Ford, Isabell Kristensen, members of the Swedish royal family, and other personalities who remain a well-kept secret.

In the UK, Matt has appeared on Why Weight on Channel 4, This Morning, GMTV, Business Breakfast and BBC Breakfast. He has contributed to GQ, Men's Fitness, Men's Health, the Evening Standard magazine, Hello, M Magazine, GQ Active, Vogue, Tatler, Harpers & Queen, Zest and Instyle.

Matt's books
Matt's first title, the 90-Day Fitness Plan (published by DK in the UK in January 2001), has already been translated into six languages and become an instant bestseller in the UK and Brazil. The Fitness for Life Manual, also published by DK sold 90,000 copies in its first year of publication.

Since then Matt has followed this with many titles including Fit For Your Shape, an exercise programme especially for girls and his latest title, The PHA Workout, which offers a brand new exercise system that allows you to get fit in half the time.
