Matt Shiel

With a Master of Education in Coaching Science, a Division 1 collegiate athletic career in the USA, and five Ironman finishes on the books, Coach Matt brings depth that few can match.

His coaching philosophy is simple: every session has a purpose, every program is backed by evidence, and every athlete deserves a plan built for their goals, not someone else's template.

Evidence-Based Methods

Every program is grounded in peer-reviewed sports science, not social media trends. Measurable inputs, measurable results.

Periodised Programming

Systematic training phases that build on each other. Peak at the right time for competition, not randomly in training.

Individualised Coaching

No cookie-cutter programs. Your training plan is built around your sport, your schedule, your body, and your goals.

Coaching contexts

Built for real sporting demands

Matt works across field sport pathways, running programs, strength and conditioning, and testing preparation for athletes who need training to transfer into competition.

Speed and running

Running coaching, sprint mechanics, speed development, aerobic conditioning and performance testing for athletes who need better movement quality and pace.

Strength, power, mobility, flexibility, reconditioning and injury-prevention work shaped around the athlete's body, sport and stage of development.
