Vitae Systems

Literally the worst gym and most unprofessional owner I have ever experienced. Do not work with Matt Norman. Please see my attached photo from my review on Facebook. Theses google reviews are from Matt’s friends a few favored clients. I would absolutely not recommend this business or working with Matt Norman. There are better places and programs for you, your children, and your money.

Vitae changed “I Can’t” into “I CAN”.I am 43 and overweight. I’ve never been athletic and I’ve never lifted weights. I said “I can’t” to a lot of things in life. I can’t walk or stand for more than a few minutes without my feet, back and hips hurting. I can’t get in the floor and play with the kids. I can’t run around the yard and chase them. I can’t walk with my sister down the beach for miles. I can’t lift that barbell. I can’t do squats. I can’t do pull-ups. I can’t do sprints. I could go on! But now, I’m down 2.5 pant sizes, have a waistline, and I just hiked 5 miles with my family last weekend! I can play with the kids! I can wear that dress! And I can deadlift 154 lbs!Joining a gym can be intimidating, but everyone at Vitae is friendly and welcoming. Matt is the best trainer! He listened to my concerns and health issues and he planned my training specifically to meet my goals and my abilities. While I didn’t know it at the time, I know looking back that he started me off slow and every session was targeted to progressing me to higher and higher levels of mobility, strength, and conditioning, which is exactly what I asked for. Thank you, Matt, for getting me where I am today! I look forward to seeing how much further I can go in the future!

Vitae always brings a good community, no matter how your day is going. The focus is to make you a better you and make sure you have good quality lifts.

Before Vitae, I was self-training and was struggling to find a program to help me reach my fitness goals. With Matt's excellent coaching and the friendly, supportive atmosphere at Vitae, I was able to reach those goals more quickly than I ever thought possible. nice gym

1.5 years ago I came to Matt injured, and not confident in my lifting. Matt took the time to work with me through my injury and built my confidence back up. Vitae is more than a gym, this is a place to get your mind and body focused.Also Matt helped make sure I looked awesome for my wedding this past January 😍🙌 - thank ya vitae system!!! 💪💪

Vitae has become a place where I can let go of the mental limits I put on myself to really see how strong I can get. Matt’s eye for detail while giving immediate feedback on the lifts keeps me injury free, improving on technique, and gaining strength. I have a place I can walk into knowing I not only have the physical training, but the mental training as well. This preparation through visualization and repetition leads to successful moments I have trained for instead of being surprised when it happens. Matt’s programming is excellent and helps me understand the why’s behind what we are doing to work towards various goals I have.And as soon as you step foot in this space, you are instantly welcomed into this family of people that will support and motivate you (and you’ll be greeted by three of the sweetest Pitbull rescues). Thank you, Matt!

The atmosphere at Vitae is unparalleled; Vitae fosters a community in which each member strives to be better (healthier, stronger, more energized, [insert your specific fitness goal]) while also celebrating their fellow gym-goers in their own journeys. Whether you have never lifted a free weight before and want to learn or are a competitive weightlifter, Vitae has a place for you.

My housemate used to disappear to the gym for a couple of hours at a time, and always came back revitalized and smiling. At her insistence - and having seen her experience there - I tried out Vitae. At the time, I was fresh out of shoulder surgery (SLAP repair) and my initial goal was to improve strength and mobility to get back to where I was pre-injury. I now train in Olympic weightlifting and am stronger than I’ve ever been in my life!Matt is an excellent trainer, and took time to work with me and listen to my observations/concerns about my shoulder. Every workout is unique and is easily adaptable to accommodate your specific requirements. The goal at Vitae is to push you to be the best version of yourself, and at Vitae I’ve achieved things I never thought possible. This is not only due to the coaching, but also the Vitae Community - everyone is so warm, welcoming and encouraging!Long story short, if you have any sort of fitness goal - be it recovering from injury, being strong enough to do a pull up or improving your weightlifting technique - then you should try Vitae.

Through Vitae, I was able to achieve better results in all aspects of my workouts. They helped me become the strongest I have ever been and also feel the most confident in my technique. I am now able to train consistently and injury free so I know I willl continue to climb higher and higher.The coaches are excellent at programming and providing support/feedback, but my favourite thing about training with Vitae is the atmosphere of positive reinforcement. It really feels like a community which helps me to be the best version of myself whenever I visit.

Amazing! Matt goes well beyond just fitness and delivers an environment of health with a blend of nutrition advice, warming up and stretching techniques, an effective workout, and tips on recovery and relating healthy fit living into daily routines. The impact that Matt and Vitae has had on my journey in fitness is outstanding and your hard work is very appreciated.Thank you so very much,Greg Bebenek
