Get to know Coach matt
About Me:
My name is Matt Leventhal, I am 33 years old, and I received my Masters (MS) in Exercise Science from California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) and am certified through the National Strength & Conditioning Association (NSCA) as a Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS)
How I can help you improve your game:
I specialize in designing and implementing science-based strength and conditioning programs that are designed to optimize athletic improvement and aid in injury prevention, as well as to enhance lean muscle mass development and improvements in body composition.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session with me generally involves some type of banded warm-up to activate the muscles being worked in the session. After a dynamic warm up, we then perform our biggest strength movements (squats, deadlifts, bench press, etc) with an emphasis on proper lifting technique. After completing our compound lifts, we then proceed into more sport-specific movements and accessory lifts. This portion of the session is typically individualized and tailored to meet the individual needs of a given athlete. Lastly, i typically finish off with a core strengthening exercise to end each session.
Career summary and accomplishments:
I have over 13 years of practical training experience in both commercial and private settings. Most notably, I have 2 years of experience working with the Long Beach State Athletics Department. In addition, I have over 11 years of experience working as a personal trainer at various gyms, including Bay Club, 24 Hour Fitness, and Gloveworx.
Best coach I ever had:
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I create an extremely positive and upbeat training environment and am always professional and punctual.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you find yourself needing to cancel or adjust your booking within 24 hours of your purchase, just let us know. We'll provide a refund - no questions asked. Your satisfaction is our top priority, and we're here to support your learning journey.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
