It’s been the most fun and a huge privilege to train this powerhouse woman @lilyjamesofficial over the last 5 months in preparation for @PamandTommyonHulu @hulu . Her commitment to her craft and to making positive changes to her health is inspiring and I know it will encourage more people towards a healthier lifestyle. We trained whilst she worked on other projects – sometimes late at night after 17 hour days, often at 5.30am and always online, but her commitment was always 100%. She’s a trooper and will be a sensational Pam. Proud of you lil #lilyjames #pamandtommy #hulu #baywatch #justgettingstarted by @mattertraining

It’s so much fun training @daisyedgarjones and she smashed her prep for twisters. For anyone interested, our sessions mostly consisted of splits squats, snacking on banana bread and mastering the laser pose on face time.🤘🏻workout plan coming soon 😜
#Twistersmovie is out tomorrow. Make sure you go watch it.

A shout-out on @fallontonight . What a legend you are @florencepugh 🙏
Florence’s fine form doing the Aperol drag curl is the result after months of commitment. We started early in the summer with Maritini’s 🍸.
Once that felt easy, we progressed to something a little heavier, Aperol spritz!🍹
The goal is simple: add load consistently and maybe we’ll aim for two pints of Guinness before Christmas.
That’s progressive overload and that’s how you see results 😂. Don’t overcomplicate it. Training doesn’t have to be difficult, you just have to find the tools that suit you and keep showing up.👊🏻
Training you is a joy Florence, and hearing that on Fallon meant more than you know.
We go again 🍻 taken in London, United Kingdom by @mattertraining

Pew pew Pugh . Giving @florencepugh the props she deserves. She’s killed it (and nearly me) in the gym all year. The video clip shows a glimpse into how her gym sessions have transferred into her daily life with the awesome curl to gulp bicep exercise. Want sculpted arms give this one a try 😛🍸

All jokes aside we focus her training on the tasks she has ahead. Feeling healthy and strong as the primary focus, but also resilience and function when she’s got stunts coming up, conditioning to increase her ability to handle stress when travel and press is impending and shit load of core if our pal @rebeccacorbinmurray has made her get her abs out 😂. Needless to say results come when the focus is pure and purposeful and there is no one purer and more purposeful than Flo. by @mattertraining

TEAM CHUNG. Massive couple of months for this cool dude @alexachung . We worked out in NYC, Paris, Florence and London. Yes she’s changed, it’s now fitness over fashion. Okay maybe not. But so impressed by her commitment, hard work, banter and of course GAINZ.

I watched BEEF SEASON 2 and it’s amazing. I’m so lucky I get to support @caileespaeny in her roles and I’m so proud of her, for so many reasons but here’s a few
1. Cailee nailed a pull up
2. She’s strong as F*%€ Cailee managed to pull my heavy self and the sled over 100kg/220lbs
3. Cailee trained the whole time she filmed. Even in Korean (this portion via phone call and her not able to speak to me, due to hotel rules 😂. As you can tell from my high pitched tones this must of been torture)
4. Cailee is soooooo good in the show 👊🏻.
5. Cailee’s a spurs fan - my bad 🙈
Go watch Beef season 2 out now on Netflix.

Training @vanessa__kirby and watching her turn into a superhero for Fantastic Four while preparing for motherhood has been nothing short of inspiring.

Vanessa your dedication over the last few years has been unreal. Working out at 5am all online, no big setups, no flash equipment — often just bands, a laptop, and pure drive. You trained before shoots with little sleep, filmed all day, then somehow still hit your steps at night. (I’ve got the proof 🤣)

You’ve shown up through every challenge, never once backing off — even during pregnancy.

Watching you show up daily — pregnant and powerful — has blown me away and been one of the coolest things I’ve been part of.

Let’s see what the post-baby chapter brings… once you’ve had a nap. xx

FANTASTIC FOUR IS OUT TOMORROW -GO WATCH IT!

Build Athleticism, not just aesthetics
Forget endless crunches. Train like an athlete, train like @court_george . The real ‘waist work’ comes from rotation, anti-rotation, and controlling tension under load.
Use chops, ball throws, loaded carries plus a variety of side planks.
You’ll move better, look better, and actually build a core that functions, not just flexes.

The Sandman behind the scenes

@thesandmanofficial Season 2 is out now on Netflix, we wanted to give a huge shoutout to Tom Sturridge.

Transforming into his character Dream is as much a physical challenge as it is a theatrical one. Maintaining single-digit body fat for nearly a year is no small task. Tom’s discipline and work ethic are incredible. He absolutely smashed it, the results he achieved speak for themself.

His transformation was not just about cardio and cutting calories. We approached this the way we do with all long-term results: by building a metabolic engine instead of just slashing calories.

Here’s how that worked in practice:

✅ 1. Build Muscle
For females and males more lean muscle means more calories burned at rest. The more efficient your metabolism is the longer it will run on a calorie deficit.

✅ 2. Maintain & Adapt
Hold the weight for 2 weeks at the new level to let the metabolism adjust. This “set point” phase helps make future fat loss more sustainable.

✅ 3. Smart, Minimal Cardio
Cutting the calories by 15-20% meant Cardio wasn’t the foundation—it was added strategically (Zone 2, HIIT) only when needed to break plateaus.

✅ Planned Refeeds
Higher-calorie weeks every couple of months- to keep metabolism responsive and the plan realistic.

Big thanks to @bychefjen for keeping Tom’s nutrition on point, and to the whole Matter team— @mattbevan_ , @craigjamesfletcher , Imogen and Berti for those early morning sessions.

The goal was never a quick fix, but a sustainable approach that delivered results and kept them there.

Stay tuned for more Matter transformations on the big screen coming soon 🦸🏼‍♀️⛈️

It’s not just about working hard - it’s about working smart.
Summer’s right around the corner. If you still want to push for a better physique, measure what you want to manage.

Measure your workouts - Lift weights. Follow a structured plan and track your progress in your strength sessions. Focus on progressing: increase the weight, the reps, or improve your form. That’s when real adaptation happens.

Measure your steps - Aim for 10,000-12,000 steps per day. Prioritising getting most of them in early so you only have a few to finish in the evening. It’s low-intensity, so you can do this daily without impacting your workouts.

Measure your calories - Use a calorie-tracking app (we use MacroFactor or MyFitnessPal) to calculate your maintenance calories. Then, create a calorie deficit by reducing that number by 200-300 calories.

Record what you eat each day - this will help you consistently drop weight week on week until your vacation. No need to be overly restrictive; it just takes a bit of preparation. If you are having an off day, just adjust those calories over the following days to stay on track.
