Matt Major

Throughout Matt's life he has participated in sports ranging from baseball to soccer to golf to wrestling, however his passion was always and was thought to always be with football. Through football Matt forged lifelong friendships, discovered power & Olympic weightlifting, and maybe most importantly Coach Major discovered that he liked to be pushed and that there wasn't anything he couldn't push himself through.

When Matt found CrossFit he began to experience many of the of same feelings that he experienced while playing football. Matt had never viewed fitness as a sport and quickly learned that he had really never been 'fit' in his life. Through CrossFit he has forged more friendships than he ever thought possible, and is constantly challenged both mentally and physically. Most importantly he would have no hesitation to now refer to himself as fit. That said, he looks forward to the challenges that lie before him in becoming an even fitter & healthier person.

CrossFit has now replaced football as Matt's sport. CrossFit is his passion, and lifestyle and has now become his career. Having the opportunity to coach each day is nothing short of a gift and one that he takes very seriously. There is nothing more gratifying than helping someone to change the direction of their life and Matt gets that chance each and every day; not to mention that he gets to spend time with some of the most hard working, motivated people around! Each day he coaches, he finds it impossible not to learn something new.
