Matt and Billy are top notch professional trainers. I’ve had excellent experiences there. They know exactly what exercises to show you and they’re done in a carefully measured way. It’s a great environment.

I have been part of Matt Pack's online coaching community since June 2020. In 4 months I have lost 41lbs and gained confidence and a better quality of life. The beauty of this program is that it is not sold as a quick fix...many quick fix "diet" programs are great at getting weight off fast but do not teach you how to maintain the loss. The tools that Matt gives in this program are tools that I will use for LIFE. While the weight loss has been great, the focus of Primal Fit is on overall health! The weightloss is a huge bonus. I haven't felt this great in YEARS.

Matt is a wonderful and positive coach who will help you achieve your life style goals when it comes to eating healthy and working out. I participated in two his programs this past summer and was able to change my eating habits and became motivated to start working out again. Matt holds you accountable and gives you the tools to achieve your goals and provides great feedback .

Matt is a fantastic trainer. He is in the business of guiding and inspiring people toward good health. Working with him and his group has been a fantastic experience. Over the course of four months, I lost nearly fifty pounds. I cannot recommend Primal Fit highly enough.

Matt's no nonsense approach to health is refreshing. He keeps things simple and sustainable. If you're a busy professional looking to lose weight with an easy to follow blueprint of diet and exercise look no further, Primal Fit is it.

Matt is extremely thorough and keeps in contact daily once you join his program to motivate you and navigate you through the tough moments. His formula and program work - I lost 30 lbs safely in 3 months. It can be challenging to maintain, but he does check in every once in a while to make sure you're doing your part. The private Facebook page is helpful too and everyone is really motivating and encouraging. I definitely would recommend trying his fasting, fat- burning, low-carb program.

Matt has helped change my life. I began training with him for several reasons, to get stronger and lose weight we’re two of them. With his help and direction I have accomplished both. I have worked out with several trainers in the past but none had the expertise that Matt exhibits. I work out privately with Matt two times per week for the past 8 months or so. Since that time I see a tremendous improvement not only my muscle strength but my endurance. Matt is devoted to his clients. He is extremely knowledgeable. He always knows how far to push me. On a side note, Matt is a great guy. He makes the workouts fun. Builds deep relationships with his clients and really cares about them.

I was initially skeptical of my ability to follow the fasting regimen, but Matt's support and encouragement makes it possible. I saw and felt results quickly, which also helped with motivation. I recommend this to anyone who's trying to lose weight, but has had difficulty with other diets. Matt is knowledgeable and is dedicated to participants' success.

Matt and the whole Primal Fit community are extremely professional, knowledgeable, and deeply passionate about overall heath and wellness. Matt goes out of his way to educate you but to also honor you where you are in your own process; he never gives up on you, is always motivating and positive, and doesn’t make you feel bad for where you are in your own journey. Matt gives of himself freely and has a wealth of resources that he is always willing to share. I have done both in person and on-line training, plus individual and group. All modalities are wonderful and achieve results. The gym is a positive and very welcoming place to be where everyone encourages each other. Billy is right there with Matt in terms of being inspirational and knowledgeable.

Matt and the team are really invested in your fitness, wellness, and overall well being. If you follow his advice and show up 2-3x/week, you will see dramatic changes. The workouts are really well designed, and fun to do while really challenging. He knows the technical aspects of anatomy, physiology, and exercise/exercise design, and no matter your personal situation, he carefully adapts the workouts and monitors you for safety and progress. Matt and the team are also incredibly nice people - everyone feels welcomed, challenged, and motivated. If you join, show up, and do the work, you will see results.

I have been working with Matt as an online coach for almost a year now. He has helped be change my relationship with food and realize what I need to remain focused on my fitness goals. I have also been a part of his accountability group and it is amazing to be able to speak with people who are going thru the same struggles and to encourage each other. I would definitely recommend others to join in.

Primal Fit Miami is an amazing fitness facility with a great team of personal trainers. Matt, my personal trainer, is supportive and communicative. I participated in two 30 day challenges which involved fasting and exercise. Their program can be implemented remotely which includes customized strength training exercises. Matt checked-in frequently throughout the program to provide guidance and ensure success. Overall, I released 20 pounds and gained strength. My non-scale victories are loose fitting clothes, energy, boost in confidence and focus. I enjoy working with Matt because of his determination in helping me reach my goals. I would recommend Primal Fit Miami to everyone who wants to be the best version of themselves. Cheers to Primal Fit Miami!

I’ve had a pleasure attending small group training and personal training at Primal Fit Miami for 4-5 months. You feel like a part of family there. Matt and Billy truly care about you reaching your fitness and health goals. Despite of my existing knee injury, they always modified exercises to make sure I feel comfortable with it . They are very responsive even outside the gym and super motivating. I loved it so much that even brought my friend to the program. Sadly, due to personal circumstances, I had to leave the gym , but I highly recommend it to everyone !🧡

I am 68 year old retired teacher and coach after a 40 year career including 94 coaching seasons in three different sports. Two years ago I had major back surgery that resulted in decreased mobility and balance issues. During that time I put on a lot of weight. Matt Pack, a former student and player, reached out to me wanting to help. Exercise based weight loss was not possible but Matt educated me on different food choices and time restricted eating. This program is working! In my first 60 days I have lost 32 pounds, my blood pressure and blood sugar levels have dropped, and I am getting healthier. My wife recently was able to give me a hug, get her arms all the way around me, and interlock her fingers. Matt and other Primal Fit members offer so much support on the web site and on video chats. This is a method I can embrace for the long term. Very thankful to Matt!

Working with Matt Pack was a fantastic experience for me. Matt is a very supportive, and knowledgeable coach and those two traits are exactly what is needed when you enter your fitness journey to get healthy. I lost thirty pounds in six weeks while working with Matt. My energy level is higher; and my head feels cleaner. Plus, that experience taught me what I needed to know to move forward. Highly recommend working with Matt and Primal Fit!

This is more than a gym. It’s a family of folks that truly care about your wellness. Their programs are not just about weight loss. It is about coaching you through practical methods that will change your life and keep you healthy. Matt , the owner, has dedicated his life to finding solutions that break the vicious cycle of losing weight and gaining it back again. I am eternally grateful for all that he and his team have taught me. Their exercise programs are creative, flexible and tailored every week to maximize your time there. You can even do it from your home on Zoom. I look forward to working out! I’ve never felt better in my life!

Matt realizes that the weight loss journey is truly different for each person. He took time to help me find my path. His patience and support have been phenomenal. His experience with weight loss clients guides him to ask the right questions.I lost eight pounds my first week with Matt then my weight loss slowed down. When I got discouraged Matt asked about my non weight loss wins. I listed my accomplishments. My blood pressure was down, I wasn’t hungry all the time. I was saving money because I wasn’t eating snacks or eating out and I had more energy! Matt reminded me how important it is to look at the big picture.Now I am down 15 pounds and I realize, because of Matt’s help, I have connected to a new way of eating and a new way of living. I am no longer on another diet.

My husband & I were looking for a personal trainer when we bought a second home in Miami.That was 12 years ago.Everything about Matt Pack/ Primal Fit goes above & beyond what one would expect.Matt has the knowledge, compassion & ability to not just train someone, but assist with nutritional needs, ailments & he can make you feel like a million bucks when you leave his gym! He has made us stronger mentally & physically...Matt is by far one of the best trainers we’ve worked with & anyone that is lucky enough to find him & start a program will benefit tremendously!5 stars across the board!!Lauri & David Miller

I found Primal Fit in search of help with my lower back pain and lack of flexibility. Matt really helped me out with stretch therapy and giving me a solid game plan for strengthening my whole posterior chain and increasing my mobility. He's extremely knowledgable and experienced but the I was so impressed with his friendliness and passion for helping me.

Matt (owner) and his team offer an awesome experience! It was the first time I went to a 6 am class consistently for a month. Matt takes the time to discuss your lifestyle and goals and offers easy to understand advice to implement. I worked out in the small group structure, which provides the personal trainer experience. The team is friendly and keeps you accountable as you progress. They take your strength, injuries, and overall fitness into account when designing the exercises for you. You will experience results if you follow instructions and do the work. I recommend Primal Fit for anyone looking for a fun, positive, down-to-earth, and motivational atmosphere.

This place is the real deal!!!! Matt and the other trainers not only know what they’re doing when it comes to training, but they also manage to create a welcoming and warm environment for their clients. He truly cares for his clients in and out of the gym. Don’t waste your time anywhere else... go with the best!!!

The encouragement ......the challenging workouts.......the sense of community..... ........the accountability.........it's hard to say what is the most appealing aspect of Primal Fit. I love it all, not only for how its strengthened me physically, but also because it's given me a renewed sense of discipline and accomplishment that carries over into other areas of my life. Every single time I walk out the door after a workout I find myself grateful for the opportunity to have found such a good fit for my fitness journey. Keep up the good work, Matt and crew! Your commitment to us is greatly appreciated!

I have been going to Primal Fit since August 2016. It is one of the best decisions I ever made and I highly recommend going here. At Primal Fit, you do not get bored doing the same routines every day. Matt and his coaches do an excellent job of making sure you perform an exercise properly and will offer modifications if you have any difficulties. The atmosphere is friendly and encouraging. It is also very much a part of the Miami Shores/Biscayne Park/El Portal community so if you live in the area, you will also probably make some new friends.

Matt is awesome! He really takes the time to get to know you and your goals and follows up with you actively to check on not only your progress but how you're feeling about everything. Billy is also an awesome coach, always remembers my injuries that cause limitations and helps with modifications and my form to make sure my workouts are safe for me. Can't wait to see my results as time goes on! Thanks everyone at Primal Fit!

Matt is not only an amazing health care and fitness professional, but he is an educator! He will show you how to transform your body while joining in on one of his workouts AND teach you how to translate health and fitness into the remaining 23 hours of your day.Primal Fit Miami is an AWESOME facility where you will utilize kettlebells, barbells, sleds, tires, animal flows, and everything in between to kickstart your workout and get you moving in ways you never thought you could!5 stars don’t give Matt and his facility any justice. You just have to check it out yourself!

I had the privilege of working with personal trainer; Billy C. the other day. The environment is well lit, clean, and also intimate. It’s not about the size but quality of service and this training session was nothing shy of great. The ambiance went hand in hand with Billy’s outstanding professionalism. Great facility, even better team.

It’s been an amazing experience working out with Matt and his great staff at Primal Fit! I’m 41 and still feel and look like I’m 25. Over the last few years I’ve gained more strength and got my flexibility back which had been lacking before. I’d recommend Primal Fit for anyone who is looking to make a great change in there life.

I met Matt at my job. He has helped me tremendously. The change I have seen in myself have been amazing and all I needed was that push from someone who actually cares about my well being being a complete stranger whom I didnt know. Not only has he been my mentor but he's also been a friend. I've shared things about my self confidence that I haven't even shared with my own partner. To have someone there just a call away is so comforting. Matt has gotten me to quit soda which has been like a drug to me that I've drank since I was a child and to be this long (over 4 weeks now) with no soda its been crazy. I eat nothing but fruits veggies and protein. I have gone from a 5x size tshirt to a 3x. Today I even tried on a 2x and it fit. That was 🤯. Anyways Matt is a great person and I consider him a friend. He's been an amazing help.

This is truly the place to go to to get healthy and fit. What I feel differentiates this gym from other places is the time they take with each person to help them reach their goals by personalizing the work outs for all fitness levels. Matt is just a text away to answer any questions and I’m sure for motivation as well. The training is structured and consists of small group classes. I’ve been going here for some years now and I feel that I get a complete workout each and every time. The facility is equipped with everything you need including a shower. Once you try this place out, you will notice the huge difference that sets this place apart from other. Not one bit of doubt about that!

Matt from Primal Fit Miami has been charged with unlearning me of the beliefs (bad habits and bad science) I’ve held for 30 plus years since high school. It’s been a process, and his wisdom has broken down my stubbornness and the results have been extraordinary. I cut my body fat in half in four months when I enlisted in his dietary regimen. I gained muscle at the same time when he encouraged me to prioritize lifting over, while not necessarily ignoring cardio. All the while, “Sustainability” is echoing in my head as the key to long term health. Matt is personable and knowledgeable, and that works for me!

As an integrative and functional medicine physician, I have had many, many patients over the years who have been trained by Matt Pack at Primal Fit Miami. His work is “par excellence” and he has transformed peoples lives. ;Matt’s approach is truly holistic and comprehensive. The training at Primal Fit addresses the person as a whole and includes nutritional guidance along with everything else they do there. Matt is always on the cutting edge, constantly educating, researching and expanding his expertise so that you can achieve a state of optimal, ideal health. As a physician, I have seen the results of his work time and time again; bodies transformed, blood work dramatically improved and people achieving tremendous well-being. You owe it to yourself to work with this gifted trainer. Highly recommended!

Gray Fenton

A excellent gym for getting in the best shape of your life. Matt’s knowledge of physiology and how to organize a whole body workout in 60 minutes is well beyond any other gym I have worked out at. His explanations of how to perform each exercise is clear with special attention to proper form to maximize the effect and avoid injury. The combinations of exercises impact all of your muscles and improve core strength at the same time. The repeated encouragement from staff and classmates during the hour keeps me motivated.If you are looking to improve your fitness and start on a lifetime journey to better health, mood and a longer higher quality life this is the place to come.Tom (age 65)
